Roguelike Dungeons Reforged

Procedurally generated dungeon complexes for NeoForge, ported from Greymerk's Roguelike Dungeons. Stone towers rise out of the plains and dungeons open underneath them: themed rooms, corridors, traps, scaled mobs and profile-based loot, all placed a configurable distance from the nearest village.

Everything about how dungeons are generated — layouts, themes, rooms, loot, the game rule, the configuration file and the commands — is carried over unchanged from the upstream Fabric release. This port changes the loader, not the mod.

Roguelike Dungeons is created by Greymerk. This is a port to NeoForge and is not endorsed by, sponsored by, or affiliated with the original author. Please support the original project: https://github.com/Greymerk/minecraft-roguelike

Versions

One build per Minecraft version. Each jar declares a strict Minecraft range, so install the one that matches your instance.

Requirements: NeoForge only. No Fabric API, no library mods, no optional dependencies — the mod declares dependencies on minecraft and neoforge alone.

Features

• Dungeon generation — themed dungeon complexes placed in newly generated chunks, at a configurable chunk distance from villages.
• Rooms, corridors and entrances — the full upstream layout system, including themed room sets and difficulty scaling by depth.
• Loot — themed chest contents (armour, weapons, tools, blocks, food, brewing supplies, ores, music discs, starter kits) with roguelike item profiles, names and lore.
• Mob scaling and equipment — dungeon mobs are scaled by difficulty and equipped with profile-based gear.
• Game rule — roguelike:roguelike_dungeons_generate (default true) turns generation on or off.
• Configuration — config/roguelike-dungeons.json, hot-reloadable.

Commands

Both commands require gamemaster permission (level 2).

The game rule keeps upstream's namespaced identifier, so the full literal is required:

/gamerule roguelike:roguelike_dungeons_generate false
/gamerule roguelike:roguelike_dungeons_generate true

Configuration

Notes

• Existing chunks are not retro-generated. Dungeons appear in chunks generated after the mod is installed. Use /roguelike dungeon here to place one where you already are.
• Do not install alongside the Fabric build. Both use the mod id roguelike, and they are alternative builds of the same mod, not add-ons.
• Dedicated servers: rooms are built over level ticks, so a server configured to pause when empty stops generation. Set pause-when-empty-seconds=0 in server.properties if you test an unattended world.
• Feature parity: this port matches upstream 2.1.2, the newest version published on Modrinth. Upstream tagged a Fabric-only 2.1.3 on 2026-10-13 that adds a mending_loot config option; a matching build will follow here.
