Details
Emerald_Armour's Freeze Tag is a complete Freeze Tag minigame for Minecraft. It features a custom world, datapack, and resource pack originally created for JeromeASF.
Inspired by the classic playground game, runners must survive until the timer runs out. Taggers work together to freeze every remaining runner. Frozen players can be rescued by their teammates, which encourages teamwork, strategy, and clutch saves in every round. With multiple maps, adjustable settings, powerups, and different game modes, each match offers a unique experience.
Everything you need to play is included in this download: the custom world, datapack, and resource pack. Whether you're hosting a private server with friends or recording content, the pack is designed for quick setup and ready-to-play action.
