BlockShards – Redefining Mining and Building

BlockShards transforms the classic Minecraft survival experience by introducing a shard-based resource system. Instead of dropping their usual items, blocks now break into unique shards that can be crafted back into blocks, traded, or placed using a Carrying Pouch. This creates a deeper progression system, adds new survival challenges, and opens up exciting gameplay opportunities for servers.

✨ Feature Highlights
