Dominion Craft
by gamermatymc
Dominion Craft is a Forge world generation mod for 1.20.1 that brings Mesozoic dinosaurs into a Jurassic-style world, with biomes, creatures and genetic tools.
What it does
Dominion Craft adds creatures that once ruled the Earth and a Mesozoic biome setting. The Tacano biome is a mysterious area where Jurassic World-style dinosaurs roam, and players can explore it alongside other prehistoric terrain. The mod is an Early Access release, and the author describes natural growth as still under development.
Genetics is the core of the gameplay. A DNA extractor is the main tool for extracting and manipulating DNA, and an Incubator lets players bring baby raptors to life from mosquito-derived components and eggs. Baby raptors must be tamed before they grow, and a growth syringe matures them in Creative mode. The Paleo Table is needed to build secure enclosures with fences and poles.
Server owners install it, and players connect with no copy of their own. The mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source. It is published for Forge only, with a single game version, 1.20.1, and the latest file is 1.0.0, dated 2026-02-27.
Key features
Dinosaur creatures
Velociraptor mongoliensis, the Nublarensis velociraptor and Triceratops are included in the Early Access version.
DNA incubation
Components are extracted from mosquitoes and eggs, then placed in the Incubator to produce baby raptors.
Raptor taming
A grown raptor does not recognize the player at first, and an item is used to calm or tame it.
Enclosure building
Fences placed in the Paleo Table crafting slot can be bent to create corners and custom enclosure designs.

How it compares
Jurassic Legacy runs on client and server, with files for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 under All rights reserved, so every player must install it. Jurassic Returned is also client and server and is released for 1.20.1 only under All rights reserved. Jurassic Additions is client and server for 1.20.1 under All rights reserved as well. Dominion Craft differs by being server-side only and by being released under the MIT License, though it is not open source.
