Curiosities
by tuanzi
Curiosities gathers a set of Forge items and tools for Minecraft 1.20.1, including Rose Gold tools, a Lucky Sword, a Probability Holy Sword and a Pocket Watch that reverts player states.
What it does
Curiosities adds weapons, tools, boots and a pocket watch to Minecraft Java Edition 1.20.1. The Rose Gold tools sit between iron and gold: they break blocks at the iron level while keeping gold-like mining speed and enchantability. The Lucky Sword deals random damage between minus 15 and plus 30, and the Probability Holy Sword has a 20 percent chance of triggering a special effect.
The mod also covers farming and utility. Efficient farming tools harvest crops in bulk and replant them automatically. Rocket Boots jump with a charge and reduce fall damage, while the Causal Pocket Watch stores and restores player states through time manipulation. The Staff Control item lets a player direct entities to fight others. Most items need advanced materials, so early-game progress is needed before they are crafted.
The mod runs on Forge for 1.20.1 only, and its files were last updated on 2025-06-29 with the 2025.6 build. Both client and server need it. Curiosities is open source under the MIT License, and its source code and issue tracker are public.
