ABOUT MODS
A game modification (mod) is a variation of a game or in-game elements. Mods can add new content to the underlying game (partial conversions) or offer an entirely new game (total conversions). Mods serve as an opportunity for developers to creatively express themselves and share their efforts with gamers. Mod DB allows us all to Play Something Different.
