Enigma: Scavenger Hunt
by chemler
Enigma: Scavenger Hunt, a Fabric minigame for Minecraft 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, lets server admins run ordered clue hunts that send players through the world to find hidden points.
What it does
Each hunt is a configurable chain of clues that must be found in a fixed order. Clues can be attached to specific loot tables and mob drops, and a clue point reveals the next message only when the correct block is reached. Duplicate clue pickups are blocked per player, so the same clue cannot be farmed or skipped over.
Server admins can run commands to start, stop, reset, reload and test a hunt, hand out clues and generate a demo, covering both live events and quick checks. A final completion trigger can run a server command when the last clue is found, and a chest can hold a clue as a starting point. Adventurers may raid configured structures and defeat configured mobs as part of the chain.
The mod is a Fabric build and is required on the server, while players may add it as an optional client install. It is not open source and is released with All rights reserved.
Key features
Ordered clue chains
A hunt advances one clue at a time, so later steps stay locked until the earlier ones are found.
Clues tied to loot and mobs
Clues can be placed in particular drop pools and as creature drops, so they turn up during normal play.
Exact clue points
Each clue point reveals the next message only when the correct block is reached, not anywhere nearby.
Admin command set
Commands cover running, halting, resetting and checking a hunt, covering both live servers and quick checks.

How it compares
Overgrown's Origins: Enigma is released under All rights reserved and covers 1.20 – 1.20.6 on Fabric, Forge and Quilt, so it reaches more loaders than this Fabric-only build. SpawnHunt is open source under the MIT License and works with either side on 1.21.11 – 26.3, so it does not depend on the server. Egg Hunt is a Fabric mod for 1.20.4 that is open source under the MIT License and runs on the server alone.
