Much More Dungeons

Four handcrafted dungeons, six procedural labyrinths, and a reason to go from one to the next. Each has its own biomes, its own loot tier, themed spawners and a named guardian at the end. The labyrinths are assembled piece by piece under the ground, so no two are laid out alike. Vaults hold a treasure map to a dungeon of the next tier: from a smugglers' villa in the plains to an arcane spire in the forest, a cursed keep in the desert and, last, a soulfire crypt in the snow, with catacombs, tombs and frozen vaults beneath them.

Version 2.0 rebuilds the mod around the four dungeons it already had and adds a new family of labyrinths. Here's what changed from 1.x:

• Six procedural labyrinths: underground mazes of corridors, stairs, spawner rooms, storerooms, libraries,

shrines and a guarded vault, assembled differently every time; five under the Overworld and one in the Nether

• Every chest has real loot: each dungeon has its own loot table and a guarded vault, in four tiers from

early game to late game (1.x towers all had the same fixed chest contents, and most dungeons used vanilla tables)

• A guardian in every dungeon and labyrinth: ten in all, from the Smuggler Chief to the Brute Overseer
• The dungeon trail: treasure maps lead from each tier to the next
• 23 advancements in their own tab, with experience for every guardian
• Better placement: dungeons are centred, never in water or below sea level, never on steep slopes, and kept

away from villages

• More often: the nearest handcrafted dungeon is usually within a few hundred to about 1,500 blocks instead of

thousands

• Biome tags that modded biomes join, a config file, and /muchmoredungeons inspect for server admins
• Empty spawners fixed, the Villa's walls of empty chests are now barrels, and the Soulfire Crypt has a new exterior
• Now for Minecraft 26.3 too, and 1.20.1 works exactly like every other version
• Your 1.x worlds keep their dungeons: every id is unchanged

Labyrinths are built by Minecraft's jigsaw system from fifteen pieces per theme: an entrance shaft (a hub for the deep and Nether ones), corridors, corners, junctions, crossings, stairs that lead further down, two kinds of spawner room, storerooms, libraries, pillared halls, shrines, dead ends and loot alcoves. The vault chamber, with two vault chests, two spawners and the guardian, is always there. Each theme has its own blocks, mobs and loot.

| Labyrinth | Tier | Where | Spawners | Guardian | |-----------|------|-------|----------|----------| | Forgotten Catacombs | 2 | under plains, meadows and forests | skeleton, zombie | Bone Warden | | Sunscorched Tomb | 2 | under deserts and badlands | husk, skeleton | Tomb King | | Verdant Warrens | 2 | under jungles, swamps and lush caves | spider, cave spider, zombie | Broodmother | | Rimefrost Vaults | 3 | under snowy biomes | stray, skeleton | Frost Lich | | Abyssal Halls | 4 | deep under any Overworld biome (around y -28) | zombie, skeleton, cave spider | Abyssal Knight | | Infernal Bastille | 4 | in the Nether (around y 40) | blaze, wither skeleton, magma cube | Brute Overseer |

Find one with /locate structure #muchmoredungeons:labyrinths. The entrance is a small stone shaft with a ladder and a trapdoor.

Every Overworld vault below tier 4 holds a treasure map to a dungeon or labyrinth of the next tier, and a regular chest sometimes has one too:

Tier I (Villa) → Tier II (Spire, Catacombs, Tomb, Warrens) → Tier III (Keep, Rimefrost Vaults) → Tier IV (Crypt, Abyssal Halls)
