Midrian - Interaction Limiter
by Midrian Mods
Midrian - Interaction Limiter restricts block breaking so that only the recommended tools can remove a block, which slows early progress in a survival world.
What it does
Breaking a block with the hand or the wrong tool no longer works as it does in vanilla, so players have to gather the right tool first. The rule applies to block-breaking interactions only, and the limits follow the tool each block calls for. Builds exist for Fabric and Forge, for 1.21.1 and 1.21.11, released under the MIT License and not open source. Only the client needs the mod.
Key features
Tool-gated block breaking
Blocks can only be broken with the tools recommended for them, which lengthens the early stages of a run.
Axe-only wood
Wood can be collected with an axe only, so gathering logs by hand is no longer an option.
Bonus chest reward
The mod includes a bonus chest, which gives players a reward for working through the restricted stage.

This mod makes it harder to progress through the game by limiting block-breaking interactions to only recommended tools! Forget about picking up wood with your hands! Now only the axe works!
