HexCraft

Logo

HexCraft is a handcrafted, realism-rooted, horror-ish, fantasy modpack that drops you into a mystical world where every step must be earned. Magical creatures roam lush, enchanted lands, but beneath the wonder lie the shattered remains of a modern world—long gone, but not entirely dead. Hexcraft is a dark fantasy journey through a mystical post-apocalypse, where ancient sorcery meets broken technology, and every ruin tells a story.

🎨 Now with a haunting new coat of paint, powered by the Ashen resource pack. Every biome, building, and blood ritual now looks as grim and beautiful as it feels.

Apocalypse 🔥 Hardcore Survival Meets Arcane Lore This isn’t just magic slapped onto Minecraft. HexCraft rebuilds survival from the ground up. There are no in-built minimaps or fast-travel menus here—you must craft your way to orientation and connection. Navigate with physical Map Atlases. Mark your way with banners and signs. Find friends only by crafting magical Heartstones. Exploration is tangible, orientation is earned, and survival demands intention.:

💀 Spirit Mode - 3 Lives Only – Upon death return as a spirit to retrieve your corpse. If you die three times, however it is over... unless someone dares perform a forbidden resurrection ritual (using Micles Totems) to bring you back (from permanent spectator mode).
🧠 Sanity System – Explore too long alone, enter corrupted biomes, or witness horrors… and your mind will unravel.
💧 Thirst, Sleep & Temperature – Purify water, cook warm meals, build heated tents, and manage exhaustion. Fire and shelter are your lifeline.
🪦 Corpse/Spirit MEchanics – Die far from home? Your body remains. From the spirit realm, recover your soul and gear—if you can brave the journey.
⛺ Tents & Bedrolls – Carry shelter with you. Set up camp during expeditions, warm yourself near a fire, and sleep off your trauma.
✨ Craftable Totems of Revival
🪄 Friend-based resurrection: Rare revival totems allow allies to bring you back even after you're gone.
🧛🏽‍♀️ Vampirism/Lycanthropy offer an "nontraditional" way to survive and sustain yourself.

End Remastered transforms the End Portal into a legendary relic, locked by 12 unique Eyes of Ender, each found in distinct biomes, dungeons, and dimensions. From haunted towers to deep ruins, forgotten vaults to cursed forests—you'll chase clues, conquer bosses, and decode the world itself.

The End is now its own dimension, complete with biomes and creatures. Simply explore the void beyond the isle of the dragon and the adventure continues.

The End

HexCraft comes with carefully pre-configured options, resource packs, and visuals. Fonts, fog, UI scale, and ambiance are all set to match the intended feel—gritty, grounded, and immersive.

You don’t need to change a thing. The vibe is already right out of the box. Just hit play and step in.

Tweak if you want—but know it’s all already set with intention.
