Roots is a magic mod themed around nature, farming, crops & animal husbandry!

Collect wildroot and grove moss, the remnants of a lost era of magic, and use them to craft magical equipment:

  • Break down ingredients and craft spells with a mortar & pestle.
  • Unleash magical rituals to obtain drops without harming animals, recreate lost magical herbs with a pyre.
  • Cast spells to grow and harvest your crops, guard yourself from attacks and more with a staff!
  • Unlock the secrets of the world's sylvan past by activating a grove stone and channeling its power into magical armor, tools & equipment with a grove crafter.
  • Befriend a wide variety of animals, including deer, beetles, owls, and the cute sprouts, sentient plants.
