📖 About:
A Nether structure mod for Minecraft 1.16.5+ aiming to advance the lore behind the nether dimension, as well as provide additional challenges and compelling gameplay in the survival game mode.
Explore new structures unique to each Nether biome, as well as the new mobs that inhabit them. Includes a redesign to fortresses and addition of Bastion Remnants to the Basalt Deltas. See the Images Tab for Spoilers!
