Datapack Manhunt

Manhunt

Manhunt is a Minecraft Java datapack that turns survival into a tense chase between hunters and runners. It provides a simple manhunt game for multiplayer sessions, assigning players to teams and giving hunters tracking compasses designed to follow hunted players.

Its defining feature is support for tracking multiple players in both the Overworld and Nether, keeping the pursuit active across dimensions. The datapack also offers a configurable starting delay, pause and resume controls, and compatibility with Realms. For a Minecraft server, our BoxToPlay experience makes this competitive minigame a straightforward way to create exciting sessions with friends while preserving vanilla gameplay.
