logo Tiny magical helpers for building, farming, and hunting in Minecraft.

Pocket Gnomes adds three magical wands that summon specialized gnome helpers: a Builder, a Farmer, and a Hunter.

Simple to learn, fun to use, and perfect for players who want a little magical automation in their world.

Why Pocket Gnomes?

Pocket Gnomes is built around a simple idea:

small magical companions that make survival more fun without turning the game into a full tech mod.

It is meant to feel readable, flavorful, and charming: three wands, three roles, three little helpers.
