Let’s just realize that these are not what make a good unique game:
Minecraft but better
Minecraft but not Java
Many games of course have minecraft like elements, that work, they just do try to be their own things:
FortressCraft Evolved: Voxel factory game with tower defence elements
Colony Survival: Voxel building game where you protect and grow a colony
Moving away from games with Voxel building for those that “want better graphics” you have games like
Valheim - build/adventure.
ARK: Survival Evolved - build/adventure/poop jokes (sorry never got into the game the let’s play poop jokes got old for me)
Also might add there are minecraft aspects to the 2d games, but most have unique gameplay as well
Factorio
Stardew Valley
Terraria - I really should like this… But every time I try it I don’t
None of these are “Minecraft killers” because while they may allow for some sandbox play they are unique games. Same for some others I see in this thread.
Sure you have Luanti as well if you want to make a highly modded minecraft like, or just other voxel game to play test, and maybe prove why its better. But it never tried to replace minecraft.

Cautionary tales demonstrated by Minecraft itself.
