Random Game Rules
Random Game Rules periodically flips a randomly chosen game rule on a timer, so a world's settings shift during play.
What it does
Random Game Rules picks one game rule at random every set number of seconds and changes it, with a visible countdown to the next change. A separate rule controls whether the mod's changes happen at all, and another can switch the random pick to the doTileDrops rule. Clients and servers both need the mod, and it is published for Forge and NeoForge across five game versions, 1.19.2 – 1.20.6, under the MIT License. It is not open source.
Key features
Timed random rule changes
A randomly selected game rule is changed once every interval, 120 seconds by default.
Visible countdown timer
A game rule can display a timer showing how long remains until the next rule change.
Tile drops chance
A game rule can make the change target doTileDrops with a chance, and it is off by default.

How it compares
Random Item Generator Resurrected is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.12.2 – 1.21.1, under All rights reserved and not open source, and it changes items rather than game rules. Game rule Backport is a Forge mod for 1.7.10 only, released under the MIT License and open source, so it targets a much older version.
