Cannibal Conundrum
Cannibal Conundrum adds hostile cannibal villages to the world, with a mini-boss, weapons, a mask and a few food and decoration blocks.
What it does
Cannibal Villages generate as a new structure in the world, and hostile human mobs spawn inside them. A hulking cannibal type appears there too, and the Cannibal Butcher mini-boss guards the village and fights with a crafted weapon called the Stonesaw. Defeating the Cannibal Butcher gives the player the Stonesaw as a reward.
The mod adds five new items and two useful blocks, plus two dangerous mobs. Fresh Flesh and Flesh Chili are food options, the Bone Sword is a weak but strong-hitting weapon with low durability, and the Bone Mask makes skeletal mobs friendly toward the wearer. The Skull Lamp is a light source block and the Bone Trap is the second block. Cannibal Conundrum needs Geckolib, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge, for 1.20.1 and 1.20.2 with 1.0.5-1.20.1 for 1.20.2 as the latest file, under the MIT License and open source.
