Mob Mystery Dollhouse
by Acrogenous
Mob Mystery Dollhouse turns a server into a murder mystery, where a group of players must work out who killed Villager Joe before the case closes.
What it does
The minigame runs entirely on the server, so players join without installing anything. The game starts in a main room where six suspects are introduced: an Evoker, a Pillager, a Witch, an Illusioner, a Vindicator and a Shady character. Each suspect talks about what they were doing before the tragedy, and one of them always tells a lie.
Clues are found by interacting with a clue block, a room password and a safe, with several rooms in the house holding information. Notes, items and passwords are gathered around the house, and a Brush Clue action reveals hidden details. The clue each one gives holds a suspect, a weapon and a room, and the true answer never overlaps with the others. The antagonist acts on their own. Requires Polymer, which the mod depends on for its server-side features.
The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric only, for 1.21.8, with 0.1.2 as the latest file on the beta channel. Its source code and issue tracker are public.
