Industrializing the Backrooms
Your first challenge in the Liminal Industries modpack is resource scarcity. You will be unable to find anything that resembles normal Minecraft, meaning no ore veins or trees. Instead, you must focus on technological progression that forces you to industrialize your surroundings. For instance, you need to break down mundane furniture and fittings for raw components – used for crafting massive automated processing chains.
The goal? You need to build your way out. Be on the lookout for raw components, you need it.
Key Features:
- Scrap-Based Progression: Wood is replaced by scavenging furniture, and metal comes from breaking down machinery, creating a truly unique “junk yard” resource economy.
- Expert-Level Automation: The pack heavily features technical mods like Mekanism, Create, and Thermal Expansion, requiring complex multi-block structures to process and refine materials.
- The Quest Book Guide: A custom-made, mandatory quest book guides you through the complex recipes and automation steps needed to advance, acting as your crucial lifeline and instruction manual.
- Custom Mob Interactions: The entities (mobs) are not just a threat; they are part of the environment, often guarding necessary components or adding an element of terrifying risk to your scavenging runs.
Scavenge, Survive, & Transcend
This modpack is a survival pack first and foremost. The atmosphere is tense, the stakes are high, and every piece of furniture you scavenge feels like a major victory. The difficulty ramps up quickly, pushing you to quickly move beyond basic tools into advanced technology just to stay alive. If you happen to stumble, it could spell disaster for you and your friends… Oh and there are monsters too, so this becomes amplified. Good luck!
Liminal Industries isn’t like the other tech packs where you eventually achieve infinite resources, this modpack keeps you on your toes with specialized, custom recipes that make even simple items hard to acquire. You must manage power, space, and the sheer terror of the infinite, claustrophobic environment to progress. The ultimate goal is to break the loop and transcend the backrooms using the high-level infrastructure you’ve created.
Will You Build Your Way to Freedom?
The Liminal Industries modpack is an intense, rewarding experience for any player who loves the blend of expert technical progression and high stakes survival horror. It takes the familiar fear of the Backrooms and turns it into a compelling engineering challenge. Gather your friends, master the art of scavenging, and start building the automated path to freedom.
Are you ready to face the challenge?
