Verity Mod
A collection of Minecraft horror companion mod/add-on projects based on the ThatMob video concept, with two independent adaptation routes: a Java version and a Bedrock version.
About Verity Mod
Verity is a Minecraft horror companion concept related to the ThatMob videos. What the official site collects are standalone playable adaptations: the Java version (Verity JE) is a mod loaded through Forge or NeoForge that requires a connection to the Groq hosted service or a locally running Ollama model; the two identified Bedrock projects (Verity BE by Utlover65 and Verity - Bedrock Edition by PnTMC) are behavior packs and resource packs imported as add-ons, each with its own experiments, interactions, and support channels. When choosing, you should distinguish them by author and Project ID rather than by how recent the screenshots look.
Best for
Best use cases
Adding an AI-driven horror companion experience on Minecraft: Java Edition 1.20.1 (Forge) or 1.21.1 (NeoForge)
Experiencing the related projects via add-ons on supported Windows or mobile Bedrock versions
Players who want conversation data to stay on their own machine can use the local Ollama model in the Java version
Compare before choosing
According to the official comparison page: the Java version is maintained by VarmiteYT and installed as a mod loaded via Forge or NeoForge; the two Bedrock projects are imported as add-ons in the form of behavior packs and resource packs.
According to the official comparison page: the Java version requires Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge (with 1.21.1 NeoForge and the older 3.4.1 also available); Bedrock projects require matching the corresponding Bedrock version for the chosen file.
According to the official comparison page: phone or tablet players can only take the Bedrock route; PC players who want the most control are suited to a standalone Forge 1.20.1 instance of the Java version; privacy-conscious players can choose the Java version with Ollama, keeping model inference on their own machine at the cost of hardware demands.
Features
Java Edition mod (Verity JE)
Runs on Forge 1.20.1 (with a legacy NeoForge 1.21.1 branch also available), powering conversations through the Groq hosted service or a local Ollama model.
Two AI connection options
Groq requires a free API key and is quicker to set up with lower hardware demands; Ollama runs the model locally so conversations never go over the network, but it needs sufficient CPU/GPU and memory.
Bedrock add-on projects
The two identified Bedrock projects are imported as add-ons in the form of behavior packs and resource packs, each with its own experiments, interactions, and support channels.
Pros
- The Java version can use a local Ollama instance, keeping model inference on your own computer.
- The Groq option is quick to set up and has low hardware requirements, needing only a free API key.
- It covers both the Java and Bedrock platforms, so mobile players also have available projects.
Cons
- The Java version requires a working AI connection (the Groq online service or a local Ollama model) to function; the Bedrock projects also depend on their respective helper programs or online services.
- The local Ollama option requires a sufficiently capable CPU or GPU and enough memory.
- The 6.0.0 beta builds may change behavior between versions; the official recommendation is to use a separate test profile and keep world backups.
