This paper proposes a Minecraft-based system for early detection of Alzheimer's disease in young adults. Early detection, where spatial navigation is a crucial key, is regarded as an important way to prevent the disease. The proposed system is compared with a recent existing and thoroughly studied system using a game called Sea Hero Quest (SHQ), by analyzing spatial navigational patterns of players. Our preliminary results show that spatial navigational patterns in both systems are highly correlated, indicating that the proposed system is likely as effective as the SHQ system for the detection task.
