Description

Item Hunt — Runner vs Seekers

Item Hunt is a thrilling Minecraft minigame data pack where one Runner attempts to collect assigned target items while a team of Seekers hunts them down!

Combining classic Manhunt suspense with random item collection challenges, Item Hunt brings fast-paced, highly customizable multiplayer fun to your server.

How It Works

  1. Assign Roles: One player is chosen as the Runner, and the rest become Seekers.
  2. Item Roulette: The Runner is assigned target items randomly selected from configured difficulty pools.
  3. The Hunt Begins: The Runner gets a configurable Head Start to gather resources and start crafting/finding the target item.
  4. Track & Survive: Seekers receive a Tracker Compass (with cooldowns) pointing toward the Runner.
  5. Winning Conditions:
  • Runner Wins by obtaining the target items before time runs out or being killed.
  • Seekers Win by eliminating the Runner before they complete the item goal!
