Host The Desolator

The Desolator is a cursed, game-mechanics and technology Minecraft mod from PurpleShiny with 3.4K downloads on the Orca catalog. It runs on Forge, so it slots into a matching Minecraft profile without hand-patching anything. The Desolator is free to download and free to host on Orca: press Play and Orca launches Minecraft with The Desolator already installed, or host it on a free server to play with friends. There is no control panel and no config files to edit, and no command line to learn. Describe what you want in plain English and Orca installs The Desolator along with the loader and Minecraft version it needs, then you and your friends are playing in minutes.

Endure convoluted steps in order to craft a powerful nuclear bomb made out of suspicious substances!
