Description:
Village Life Games is a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21.5 (Java Edition). Place and right-click one structure block to seed an autonomous mini-village. Villagers build vanilla-inspired cottages, patrol and fight hostiles, and respond when you talk to them — but stay silent otherwise. Trading is also enhanced across five professions, accepting common materials instead of emeralds.
| Content | Details |
|---|---|
| Village Life Games block | A decorative multi-block structure (4×4 footprint). Placed as a single item; all parts auto-assemble. |
| Autonomous villagers | Farmers, Masons, Toolsmiths, Weaponsmiths, and Librarians, spawned with carried tools and optional iron armour. |
| Iron Golem protector | Summoned on roughly 1-in-3 activations to guard the area. |
| Vanilla-style cottages | Larger 11×11×11 homes with gabled roofs, log corner posts, glass windows, pitched stairs roofing, usable beds, work blocks, and a lit doorway. |
| Special villager trades | New non-emerald trades for five professions. |
| Improved merchant screen | The trading UI only closes when you press Escape; pressing E no longer accidentally dismisses it. |
Set the block on solid, relatively flat ground. The structure snaps to face the direction opposite to you. Leave several clear blocks around it — villagers need space to build homes 12–35 blocks away.
Right-click any block of the structure:
After activation, the structure ticks automatically every 2–4 seconds. On each tick it randomly picks one action:
Right-clicking the structure at any time re-arms the tick immediately.
Villagers will not speak unless spoken to. Right-click a villager to prompt a response — they'll say a line above their head and in your chat in gold text. There is a short cooldown between responses from the same villager. Occasionally they'll address you by name.
The Village Life Games block crafts at a crafting table and stacks to 1. It also appears in the Functional creative tab.
Spawned villagers carry a random item in their main hand: iron pickaxe, iron axe, iron shovel, iron sword, bow, shield, wheat, or bread. Roughly 1-in-3 villagers also wear an iron helmet and iron chestplate.
Each cottage is built to fit inside an 11×11×11 volume and is styled after vanilla villages:
Cottages avoid overwriting the Village Life Games structure or any existing solid blocks. The owning villager navigates toward the new home immediately after it is built.
These offers are added to normal villagers of the listed professions and also to villagers spawned by the structure:
| Profession | Trade |
|---|---|
| Farmer (level 1) | 20 Wheat → 8 Bread |
| Farmer (level 1) | 16 Carrots → 2 Golden Carrots |
| Mason (level 2) | 32 Cobblestone → 12 Bricks |
| Mason (level 2) | 24 Clay Balls → 3 Lanterns |
| Toolsmith (level 2) | 8 Iron Ingots + 4 Coal → Iron Pickaxe |
| Weaponsmith (level 2) | 7 Iron Ingots + 2 Flint → Iron Sword |
| Librarian (level 2) | 24 Paper → Name Tag |
While the trading screen is open, pressing the inventory key (default E) no longer closes it. Only pressing Escape dismisses the merchant screen.
Right-click the single full-cube stone-disguised hideout block to be teleported into your own private, persistent pocket-dimension base—now a 13x13x7 interior with clearly zoned living, storage, crafting, and enchanting areas, fully furnished with vanilla-style utilities and decorations. Stand on the glowing exit portal to return to the exact world position and view you entered from, or sneak as a backup; the exterior behaves and looks like vanilla stone (stone sounds/mining, 64 stack size, drops cobblestone) so it blends into builds, and each player gets a stable personal room that persists across restarts. The block and item textures have been cosmetically updated to a custom rough grey rock that better matches the intended large-rock proportions, while all hideout mechanics remain unchanged (mod updated to version 4.0.0).
The Mystic Loot Crate is a 2x2x2 multiblock structure that admins can configure with custom loot across three rarity tiers: Legendary, Rare, and Common. Admins with OP level 2 or higher can Shift+Right-click any block of the assembled crate to open the configuration GUI, where items placed in the top row are Legendary (rarest), the middle row Rare, and the bottom row Common (most frequent). To open a crate, players must hold a Mystic Key (found in the Tools creative tab) in either hand and Right-click the crate. The key is consumed on use, and the player receives one randomly selected item based on the configured loot weights. Legendary drops reward the player with a spectacular golden particle burst and fanfare, Rare drops trigger enchant particles and a level-up sound, and Common drops show a gentler particle effect.
Adds a full banking economy with Iron, Gold, and Rose Gold coins, ATMs, a personal Debit Card, and a simple sign-and-chest shop system; rose gold ingots can still be converted into nine rose gold nuggets and the nugget icon has been simplified, and rose gold coin value is 6 (ATMs display R.Gold 6). To use, sneak/Shift + right-click an ATM or your Debit Card to register your bank account (this stores your player name); once registered, right-click the ATM to deposit/withdraw and right-click the Debit Card to check your balance, while sneak-right-clicking shop signs lets you purchase from them—if you try to use a shop or ATM without an account the mod will prompt you to sneak-right-click to register first (sneak-right-clicking a shop sign with an unregistered card will register the account and ask you to click again to buy).
The Chrono Freeze Clock is a grand multiblock structure that gives you full control over time and the world around you. Right-click any part of the clock to open a menu where you can instantly jump to Dawn, Noon, Dusk, or Midnight with a single button press. The menu also features a Freeze Time toggle that halts the daylight cycle, locks the weather to clear skies, and completely stops all mob AI -- freezing every creature in place until you choose to unfreeze them.
The Arrow Sentry Turret is a compact, single-block automated defense that detects and fires arrows at hostile mobs within a 24-block radius. Place it where you want protection and right-click the turret to toggle it on or off; when active it automatically scans for the nearest hostile and fires roughly once per second while playing its firing sound. If you want the one-block turret to have a different look or size, just ask.
