Minecraft. Barbarossa. Barbarossa, in Italian "red beard" was, according to its inventor, inspired by the fantasy trilogy Die Schule der Rätselmeister (School of the Riddle Masters), in which wizards are devoted to the creation of riddles and riddle solving tournaments.

In an interview designer Klaus Teuber stated "As you know there are moments when you close a book really sad that it's over.
