SeparatorDescription

A Stacklands-style card game that massively changes survival Minecraft!
Everything you gather, craft, and fight is a card. Stack villagers on trees, rocks, and bushes to gather resources, build up your village, and keep everyone fed, one card at a time.

Since this is a Data Pack and Resource Pack, both can be installed once server side and will apply to every player who joins, so nobody has to install the pack themselves!

Made for Minecraft Java 26.3.
