Sons of the Sand
Java modpack listed for Minecraft 1.16. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.16.5 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
This modpack is a sequel to the "The Banished" modpack for 1.12.2, but now for 1.16.5. After defeating the evil Pharaoh Spirit in "The Banished" you've corrupted the local balance. So, Evil is no longer contained and now free to roam the land of Sands. To restore the balance, you need to build a Tower of specified blocks, but you don't know how the Tower should look like (After building the Tower, you may submit a screenshot or two to Discord server, so, other people there will decide, whether you succeeded or not). Modpack comes with a detailed Guidebook (but it's in Russian for now), and no quests. So, you're free to progress as you like.
