Lucky Cases

Cases generate in small ruined structures scattered through the world, so exploring becomes the way to find them. A player finds one, right-clicks it to begin opening, and the case disappears at once and drops nothing on its own. Most cases are standard yellow, and a small share are red, which are much rarer and produce more exciting results. Opening a case brings up a custom reward screen in the style of vanilla, with a spinning reel animation and the result hidden until the spin finishes. Pressing Esc skips the remaining animation and gives the result at once.

Each reward pool covers dozens of possible drops, ranging from food, building materials, torches, coal, iron and redstone up to rare gear, diamonds, golden apples, TNT, shulker boxes, netherite equipment and very rare jackpot items such as elytra. Opening a red case can spin five reels at once and grant five separate rewards. Lucky Cases can also trigger events, with a base 15% chance per opening and a higher chance after a long streak without one.
