Description

Potato Roots is a small farming-themed update about how greed for a bigger harvest turns
an ordinary potato into a living monster. Brew a Potion of Fertility and water your potato
crop, it'll start growing on its own, but leave it unattended too long and it swells into a
Giant Potato, which eventually bursts open into Kartofan, a pest that trsamples your
farm. Kill it for vines and craft the Vine Cloak: it hides your nametag, the hood tracks
your gaze, and crouching turns you into a pile of leaves. On top of that: a hoe with
auto-harvesting and a Harvest enchantment, a rare abandoned-garden ruin that only spawns near
rivers, villager trading — and a pig that explodes after overeating giant potatoes

Potato Roots

Warning: don't forget to harvest your potatoes!

---

Fertility Potion

Water your potatoes with it, and a chain reaction begins: growth → giant tuber → Kartofan. The potion only needs to be used once — after that, everything unfolds on its own over time.

Giant Potato

Ripens in 4 stages, with eyes appearing as a fair warning before danger arrives. Break it normally for a generous drop. Break it with Silk Touch for a decorative trophy. Ignore it too long, and it bursts on its own.

growth stages


Kartofan

A fully custom mob with a "bite and retreat" behavior — it damages crops and flees from pigs. Weak in combat, but destructive to your farm.

Drops potatoes every time, plus a small chance of dropping a Potato Root — the material needed to craft the Vine Cloak.

Vine Cloak

0 armor, pure stealth: the hood tracks your head movement, glows in the dark, and sheds falling-leaf particles while sprinting. Crouch, and you transform into a pile of leaves.

The Hungry Pig

Eats giant potatoes lying nearby, saving your crops from turning into a Kartofan. Grows larger with every tuber eaten, and after the tenth, it explodes with a bonus drop of pork.

Hoe and "Harvest" Enchantment

Right-click a ripe crop for an instant harvest with automatic replanting. The enchantment expands the harvest area: a cross shape (I) → a 3×3 area (II).


Abandoned Garden

A procedurally generated ruin found near rivers: an overgrown crop bed, a broken fence, and a chest full of loot.

Villager Trading

Librarians sell the "Harvest" enchantment book. Master Farmers are the only villagers who will buy giant potatoes from you.
