Bizarre West
by BizCub
Bizarre West is a NeoForge minigame that adds a wild west setting to Minecraft, with bandit camps, horse stations and a railway station to explore.
What it does
The mod builds a western theme into the world. Bandit Camps and Horse Stations appear as places to visit while crossing the desert, and a Railway Station gives the setting a transport hub. Exploring these sites and completing the adventure's achievements is the main activity, so the mod suits players who want a themed playthrough rather than a set of standalone tools.
Bizarre West requires Geckolib, which must be installed alongside it on NeoForge. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, with 1.0 as the latest file from 2025-03-03. The code is released under the MIT License but is not open source, and the mod was first published on 2025-02-23.
Key features
Bandit Camps
Camps occupied by bandits sit in the wild west landscape, giving players sites to find and clear while travelling.
Horse Stations
Stations where horses are kept let players gather mounts for crossing the wide desert terrain.
Railway Station
A station on the rail line marks a stop in the setting and anchors travel between the places in the world.
Achievements and exploration
Advancements tied to desert exploration reward players for visiting the themed locations across the world.

How it compares
Wild west structures is server-side only and is available for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.19.2 – 1.21.8, under All rights reserved, so it adds world generation without touching players' clients. Old West Weaponry is client and server and released under the MIT License, but it covers only NeoForge for 1.21.8 – 1.21.10, which means it does not target the version Bizarre West uses. Realplayz's Wild West Mod is server-side only, built for 1.20.4 and under All rights reserved.
