Survival Reworked
by bzzy
Survival Reworked is a Fabric mod that adds custom ores, tool and armor sets, food, and other items to Minecraft survival play.
What it does
Many custom ores come with their own sets of tools and armor, with more than ten custom items in total, and the ore sets exclude prismasteel. Five or more custom food items and other items round out the additions, which aim to give survival play new goals that vanilla does not offer. The author describes the balance as keeping the game challenging, with progression that is not too quick or too hard.
The mod requires Fabric API, which must be installed alongside it on Fabric. It runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. Files cover game versions 1.19.2 and 1.21.8, with 1.0.4 for 1.21.8 as the latest Fabric file, published 2026-08-13. Survival Reworked is not open source and is released under All rights reserved. The author notes that the mod is in a pre-alpha testing phase and that bugs should be expected.
Key features
Custom ores and sets
Several custom ores each come with a matching set of tools and armor, adding gear beyond the vanilla materials.
Custom food and items
Five or more custom food items and additional items extend the crafting and eating options available to players.
New survival goals
The additions give players new objectives to pursue in survival, intended to stay balanced with the base game.
Pre-alpha status
The mod is still in a pre-alpha testing phase, so content may change and bugs may appear before a finished build.

How it compares
Enchantments X is a Fabric mod that only the server needs, so players join without installing it, with files for 1.21.9 – 26.3 under All rights reserved. AquaCraft is a Fabric mod that only the client needs, while the server may skip it, and it targets 1.21.1 under All rights reserved. More Tools And Armor is a Fabric mod that works on either side, and neither side needs it, with files for 1.20.1 – 1.20.4 and no open-source license. Survival Reworked differs from all three by requiring both the server and every player to run it, with its own ore, tool and food additions.
