Minetest is a game engine. This package "Minetest Game " is like a demo world, not a fully featured game. Don't judge the capabilities and potential of the Minetest engine based on this demo package. To do this is similar to downloading Unreal Engine, starting up a sample project with the demo player and demo map, then throwing up your arms and saying "this game sucks".
What you can do you use Mintest Game as a base to further mod the game into whatever gameplay experience you want. If you're not into creating your own mods, there are plenty of community-made mods that you add on top of Minetest Game to tailor it into the gameplay experience you want.
If you're not into modding whatsoever, and just want to play a game, then check out packages that are intended as fully featured games, like MineClone2, NodeCore, Exile, etc. Enjoy.
