- Welcome to Create!
Create is a mod that offers a variety of tools and blocks for building, decorating, and aesthetic automation with cool-looking steampunky contraptions. Create's visual in-game documentation, called Ponder, will teach you how most blocks work. Hover over an item in JEI or in your inventory to see if it has a Ponder. To get started, craft some Andesite Alloys. You'll need a lot of these. The Wrench is a multipurpose tool for working with Create contraptions. It can rotate, configure, and dismantle blocks, contraptions, and more!
Asks for:Andesite Alloy
