I don't know my version or loader

💔 Fractured Hearts

Every death shatters your hearts. Recover them with rare apples, or face oblivion.

Fractured Hearts adds a permanent death penalty system to Minecraft — each time you die, you lose hearts.

Steal hearts from your enemies in PvP, customize everything, and make every decision matter.
