Minecraft Mods Quiz

Name the 20 Minecraft mods with the most downloads. The board ranks them from 1 to 20.

Each card shows the rank, the type of mod, the mod loaders and the downloads. You type the mod name.

The ranking uses the total downloads on CurseForge in November 2026.

How to play

• Just start typing. The quiz checks your answer at every keystroke. There is no submit button.
• A correct name flips its card. You can answer in any order.
• Short forms count where players use them: "JEI" solves Just Enough Items and "AE2" solves Applied Energistics 2.
• A famous mod that is not on the board clears the input, so you know that the quiz read the guess.
• The timer starts at your first keystroke and counts up. Give Up ends the run and shows every mod that you missed.

What counts in this quiz

• Mods that a player can see in the game: new blocks, new screens, maps and menus.
• Performance mods that players install on purpose, such as ModernFix and Entity Culling.

What's not included, and why

• Code libraries are not here, such as GeckoLib, Cloth Config and Fabric API. Players do not see them.
• Controlling, Clumps and Enchantment Descriptions are not here. Modpacks add them, and they change no screen that players know.
• OptiFine is not on CurseForge, so its downloads cannot be compared. Sodium and Iris have more downloads on Modrinth than on CurseForge.

Good to know

• Most CurseForge downloads come from modpacks. The app downloads every mod of a pack at once.
• Just Enough Items shows the recipe of every item, from the game and from other mods.
• Forge, NeoForge and Fabric are mod loaders. A mod works only with the loader that it was made for.
