The same ballin’ mf that made Nevernamed’s Bestiary mod made this work of art, so if you’re a fan of their work, then you’ll probably like this one, too.

This one’s title may be a mouthful, but it’s easily one of the most useful Inscryption mods on this list. Like, for real, even if you don’t download literally any of the other mods from this list (though I don’t know how anyone could pass up that shark one), you need to at least download this one.

The IncreaseActOneCardSlots mod delivers exactly what its title promises, which is an additional card slot to your hand, giving you a leg up on the competition in Inscryption. This mod was masterfully crafted by JulianMods on the same website that literally all of the other mods on this list are on: Thunderstore.

API Mod

If you feel that you can create something that other modders haven’t made yet, then definitely download the core API mod for all Inscryption mods by API_dev.

When I say that you can create and modify by using this mod, I really meant it because API mod allows you to edit cards, abilities, appearance behaviors, stat icons, challenges, starter decks, regions, encounters, totem tops, consumable items, gramophone tracks, talking cards, etc. It is an advanced mode for Inscryption but still one of the best out there if you know how to handle it right!

WhistleWind Lobotomy Mod

WhistleWind Lobotomy mod by WhistleWind brings in some of that Lobotomy Corporation vibe to Inscryption. The mod brings new bosses, edits some balances, and adds new cards and abilities that reflect the popular indie horror game. Even if it looks like it would be interesting only to the fans of that game, I suggest you check it out.

ZergMod

Yes, you read that right, StarCraft fans. One of you, named JamesGames, has created ZergMod to please the whole fan community of this legendary strategy game. Even though it’s only bringing in the Zerg race to Inscryption, it’s still better than nothing, right?

The mod adds 30 new cards, 1 modified card, 13 new rare cards, 6 new sigils, 1 new map node, 7 new special abilities, 7 new encounters, and 2 new consumable items.
