Brass, Bloom and Beyond
Build a home, start a workshop, or head out and see what you find.
Brass, Bloom & Beyond is a kitchen-sink modpack for Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge. It brings together technology, magic, farming, cooking, building, wildlife, and exploration, without asking you to stick to just one of them.
You might spend an evening setting up a production line, decorating a cottage, learning a new spell, or finding somewhere to build your next outpost. There’s room for all of it.
Find your own way to play
Build and settle
Start with somewhere to sleep and turn it into somewhere you want to stay. Build a farmhouse, a busy workshop, a village, or a base that keeps expanding every time you discover another project.
Decorative blocks, furniture, and building tools give you plenty to work with, whether you plan everything beforehand or keep adding “just one more room.”
Make things move
Create brings moving machinery and hands-on automation, while Mekanism, Industrial Foregoing, and other technology mods offer more ways to process materials and build larger systems.
Automate a small task that’s getting annoying, or spend days designing a factory. You don’t have to start with the biggest setup.
Explore magic
Experiment with Ars Nouveau’s spellcrafting, develop your magical toolkit, and explore the equipment and enchanting possibilities offered by Apotheosis.
Magic can be your main interest or simply another useful part of everyday life at your base.
Grow, cook, and collect
Plant crops, establish an apiary, tend a vineyard, and put together a kitchen worth using. Farmer’s Delight, Bakery, Farm & Charm, Vinery, and Productive Bees support everything from a small garden to a much more ambitious operation.
Not every project needs to end in a machine. An orchard, a bakery, or a well-stocked pantry can be a goal of its own.
Get out into the world
Explore new landscapes, investigate structures, discover wildlife, and bring home something worth displaying.
Build a remote cabin, plan an animal sanctuary, or work towards the journeys beyond the Overworld offered by Ad Astra and Deeper and Darker.
Better together
The pack is being developed with shared play in mind. One person can work on the machinery while another builds the house, grows ingredients, or plans the next expedition.
You don’t all need the same interests to contribute to the same world.
About the quest book
An extensive quest book is planned to help you find your way through the pack. The aim is to combine dedicated mod questlines with broader goals for building, technology, magic, farming, exploration, and collecting.
It’s intended to give you useful direction and longer-term projects, not make every player follow the same route. Quest content is still being developed, so its coverage will grow as the pack takes shape.
A pack in development
Brass, Bloom & Beyond is actively being worked on. Mods, recipes, configurations, and quests may change between releases.
If you’re playing on a server, use the pack version recommended by its owner. Before updating an existing world, make a backup and check the release notes for any important changes.
For now, find a place you like, put down a crafting table, and see what you feel like building.
