Is creative mode lacking some features you wish were in the game?
Minecraft is a game for all kinds of different players, whether you’re a fan of building, fighting, or exploring, there’s something for everyone! Creative mode is definitely a big highlight of this accessibility, allowing players to create whatever they want with no restrictions! But in actuality, creative mode does have a few restrictions, such as missing certain blocks or customizable options. Thankfully, I’ve put together a top fifteen list of mods for creative mode that serve to help fill in these missing features!
15. Superflat World No Slimes
A superflat world free of any slimes
See this mod on YouTube:
A review/showcase of this mod.Superflat worlds are a great option for creative mode players, offering an endless stretch of flat land to build whatever you want! However, superflat worlds are overrun with annoying slimes, hopping around and getting in the way. This mod solves that by removing slimes from superflat worlds!
This mod was super small and simple, but it made my experience with the game a bit more fun!
- Without slimes in the way, they’re not getting in the way of my buildings or blocking me from building anymore!
- Also with slimes absent, they don’t attack other mobs like villagers, which is super nice!
- Along with this, the absence of slimes also means there’s no slime sounds constantly, which is super relaxing on the ears!

14. Egg Tab

See this mod on YouTube:
A review/showcase of the mod.Are you a fan of messing around with mobs in creative mode? Well, the Egg Tab mod is for you! Spawn eggs for mobs are already in the creative inventory, but this mod gives them their own menu tab and sorts them easily!
This is another simple mod, but it makes navigation of the menu just a bit easier and a bit more fun.
- Having a separate tab for spawn eggs makes them much easier to find!
- Since the mod resorts the eggs, it’s also easier to find the specific one you’re looking for!
- This mod also adds an enchanted books tab, to help sort those as well!

A review/showcase of the mod.Everyone who’s played in creative mode has noticed one major flaw with the menu: it’s missing some items! Thankfully, Extended Creative Inventory adds a new tab to the menu that adds these missing items in, all with ease of access!
Having access to these absent items allows for even more creative options and fun!
- Mob spawners are an important item that’s added back with this mod, letting you create your own dungeons!
- Command blocks are a big one, since they allow you to manipulate the game in so many different ways!

See this mod on YouTube:
A review/showcase of the mod.Creative Plus is very similar to the last mod, adding back items that weren’t previously accessible. However, Creative plus adds back even more lost items, among a few world editing tools as a bonus!
Having access to more items and editing options makes for some really fun building!
- Some blocks added back with Creative Plus that weren’t already in the game are lit furnaces, water sources, and farmland.
- Having minimal world edit tools is a bit restrictive, but still highly useful for simple edits!
