Overview

Chunklock completely changes the way players experience Minecraft survival. Every chunk is locked by default. Players must gather resources, explore, and plan carefully to unlock neighboring chunks — making exploration, resource management, and strategy the core of progression.

No more instant exploration across thousands of blocks — Chunklock turns your world into a massive puzzle where every chunk is earned!

How It Works

Players start with only 1 unlocked chunk. Locked chunks require resources to unlock. Unlock cost depends on:

• Biome type
• Distance from spawn
• Resource density inside the chunk

Every seed plays differently — fully dynamic system!
