Cogs & Cottages

Build a factory, tend a garden, or spend far too long getting the roof right.

Cogs & Cottages is a Minecraft 1.21.1 modpack made for friends who enjoy different sides of the game. Some people want trains, workshops and clever machines. Others want a little farm, a cosy kitchen and a house that feels like home. There is room for both.

On the Cogs side, build with Create: moving machinery, resource automation, railways, storage and shops. Start small or plan a factory that takes over the valley.

On the Cottages side, grow food, try new recipes, decorate, organise storage and settle into village life. There is plenty to do without building a factory.

Choose from twelve origins: Human, Fairy, Elf, Dwarf, Goblin, Giant, Gnome, Dryad, Merfolk, Villager, Piglin and Enderian. Human keeps things simple; the other origins offer their own abilities, perks and drawbacks. An in-game guide explains them, and the ability display can be adjusted. Several have their own cosmetics, and Gnomes can ride small animal companions.

There are structure-based treasure tiers, optional lockpicking puzzles, plenty of building pieces, and proximity voice chat for multiplayer. Play alone or share a world with friends.
