If you're a fan of the cooperative horror game *R.E.P.O.* and looking to enhance your gameplay experience, mods can offer exciting new ways to enjoy the game. Here’s a curated list of the best *R.E.P.O.* mods that you can use to mix things up. Remember, all mods mentioned here can be downloaded and installed using the “Thunderstore Mod Manager” app.
Best R.E.P.O. Mods So Far
Better Map
Communication is key in *R.E.P.O.*, especially when using proximity chat. However, knowing the whereabouts of your teammates and the spawning locations of monsters can be challenging. The Better Map mod solves this by displaying the positions of your teammates and marking danger zones with distinct shapes for each monster. This mod is crucial for strategic planning and avoiding unnecessary encounters, as red markers signify danger zones.
More Shop Items
The randomness of item spawns at the Service Station can be frustrating if you’re searching for a specific weapon or upgrade. The More Shop Items mod increases the variety and quantity of weapons, items, and upgrades available, enhancing your chances of finding exactly what you need. This mod not only broadens your options but also provides more competitive pricing, making your shopping experience more rewarding.
More Stamina
In *R.E.P.O.*, stamina can be a lifesaver, whether you're solo or with a team. Facing daunting enemies like Trudges or Bangers often requires a quick getaway. The More Stamina mod doesn’t increase your stamina but significantly reduces its consumption rate. This means you can outrun your foes longer, giving you a strategic advantage in tense situations.
Show Enemy Damage
With 19 unique monsters in *R.E.P.O.*, each with different health levels, keeping track of their damage thresholds can be daunting. The Show Enemy Damage mod displays the health of monsters after you start attacking, helping you decide whether to continue fighting or retreat. This visual feedback, shown through a red health bar or numerical damage count, aids in making tactical decisions quickly and effectively.
Team Upgrades
Progressing in *R.E.P.O.* involves earning money to purchase weapons and upgrades, which become increasingly expensive. The Team Upgrades mod allows any upgrades purchased by one player to be shared among all team members. This cooperative feature not only fosters teamwork but also saves money, as all players benefit from the upgrades regardless of who made the purchase.
Valuable Shrinking
Transporting high-value items in *R.E.P.O.* can be risky without an Indestructible Drone. The Valuable Shrinking mod solves this by allowing large items to be compressed into a cart for safe transport. Once you place a part of the item in the cart, the mod takes care of the rest, making it easier to move valuable items to the extraction point without damage.
Character Customization
Personalizing your R.E.P.O. robot adds a fun layer to the game. The Character Customization mod lets you dress up your character from head to toe, offering options inspired by other games like Pokémon and Mario. This mod not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also allows for greater personal expression within the game.
Improved Truck Healing
Returning to the truck after a successful run in *R.E.P.O.* is always a relief. The Improved Truck Healing mod boosts the healing provided by the truck, potentially eliminating the need to buy health kits at the Service Station. Depending on your level of injury, this mod can save you valuable resources and keep you in the game longer.
More Of Everything
If you're feeling the monotony of the base game, the More Of Everything mod can breathe new life into *R.E.P.O.*. It adds new cosmetics, valuables, items, and even enemies, offering fresh experiences. With the ability to toggle individual features, you can customize your gameplay to suit your preferences, keeping the game exciting and varied.
Take No Damage
While it might seem counterintuitive to the essence of *R.E.P.O.*, the Take No Damage mod allows you to play without the fear of being killed by enemies. This can be a great way to practice stealth and attack tactics without the pressure of failure, making it ideal for players who want to master the game’s mechanics without the constant risk of starting over.
With its bright future and ongoing updates, *R.E.P.O.* continues to evolve. As the community grows, more innovative mods will undoubtedly emerge. For now, explore these mods and check out our other guides for more tips and strategies to enhance your gaming experience.
