Wilder Wild reimagines Minecraft’s Wild Update by enriching existing world features and adding new biomes, wildlife, plants, blocks, and environmental details. Its new and expanded landscapes include Cypress Wetlands, Oasis, Mesoglea Caves, Maple Forest, Rainforest, Flower Field, Frozen Caves, and Magmatic Caves, alongside transition biomes such as Mixed Forest and Birch Taiga. Existing forests, birch forests, taigas, swamps, jungles, deserts, and other familiar areas gain denser or more varied vegetation, fallen and differently sized trees, clearings, new flowers, and other biome-specific terrain details. New plants and tree sets include Cypress, Baobab, Palm, and Maple, as well as cattails, algae, shelf fungi, pollen, tumbleweeds, and prickly pears. Wildlife includes fireflies, termites, ostriches, butterflies, penguins, jellyfish, and crabs; fireflies appear at night in places such as Cypress Wetlands and swamps, while termites feed on natural wood and retreat to their mounds when they cannot find food. The new environments have distinct features: Mesoglea Caves contain shallow pools, glowing jellyfish, and passages through mesoglea, while Oases bring palms, water pools, and desert villages and temples to the desert. Added interactions include coconuts that can be knocked from palms and thrown, tumbleweeds that break loose and roll, and geysers that erupt to push nearby entities, with player-placed geysers responding to redstone rather than erupting randomly. Other useful additions include display lanterns that can hold an item or fireflies, and Echo Glass that blocks vibrations and can stop a Warden’s sonic boom, cracking in the process.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
We found nothing it sends about you
We read its code without running it: it contacts 2 web addresses while you play.
Like any connection, each address it contacts sees your IP address.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images, sounds and code history and found none.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
