About Psycho Villagers
From ModrinthPsychopaths hiding among villagers
This (somewhat horror) mod adds a 10% chance for villagers to be hidden psychos who attack vulnerable targets, mostly at night.
You don’t have to wonder whether a village has psychos or not. Craft a Notepad and interact with villagers and other objects to find clues.
If all villagers basically say "nothing to worry about" then most likely there are no psychos in the village.
- You can manually spawn a psycho villager with "/psychovillagers spawn" command.
- In the config file you can turn off horror sounds, change psycho chance and more.
Also check out:
- Purification Night modpack for a short challenge.
- Purge Night addon that adds the purge night event.
