This great game received official updates and DLC, but it has also been given mod support and players can introduce awesome new elements themselves.

When one plays a game for hundreds of hours, it is understandable that things can get a bit stale, despite having the passion to have delved into a particular title for as long as one has. Don't Starve Together is a dark and unrelenting survival game made by Canadian independent developer Klei Entertainment that was released in 2013 and has received many innovative and immensely fun updates since then.

Not only has this great game received official updates and DLC, but it has also been given mod support and players can introduce new elements themselves for untold quantities of helpful devices and other kinds of novel additions to the already awesome gameplay.

10 999 Stack Size

One of the most tedious parts about surviving in Don't Starve is the restrictive stack sizes. They're sometimes far too small for efficient hoarding and this results in players needing to leave things scattered on the ground when inventory space gets tight.

The 999 Stack Size mod alleviates this issue by doing exactly what it sounds like: making all stacks go up to 999. Inventory management will be a breeze after installing this one.

9 Always On Status

The user interface of this game is meant to be minimal for maximum immersion, however, there are some elements that players would rather have on their screen at all times, such as the icons for one's hunger, sanity, and health.

Gamers seeking to constantly know their statuses can download the Always On Status mod in order to keep track of these important details better.

8 Beefalo Milk

Dairy connoisseurs should definitely check out this delicious mod, as it adds close to a dozen new food items to the game and ranges from tremendously delectable (pizza) to outright disturbing (fish yogurt).

Each milk or cheese-based food is made from milk harvested from everyone's favorite bovine in the Beefalo Milk mod. Most of the consumables restore huge quantities of health, hunger, and sanity and are worth risking a sneaky milking on a Beefalo, though be warned, for they can kick quite hard!

7 Better Moon

It can be hard to tell when a full moon is approaching, which is something that becomes important to prepare for. The Better Moon mod adds in visuals that show which phase the moon is currently in for prudent survivalists to take advantage of.

Each phase, both waxing and waning, is composed of 3 different subphases that show the trend in which the moon is moving. This subtle yet important detail adds great immersive qualities as well as performing its function well.

6 Chocolate +

Here's another delicious mod, but chocolate-themed this time. The Chocolate + mod adds Cacao trees into the game which the player can harvest Cacao seeds from. These large seeds can be used to create chocolate and a few more dark and tasty recipes.

Chocolate milk, chocolate ice cream, and chocolate chip cookies are also on the menu of this mod, which are 3 very strong reasons to check it out. Each of these new food items restores great quantities of hunger and sanity, though do little for health.

5 Fish Day

Most of the time, the best weapons and armor are usually risky or costly to acquire. The Fish Day mod changes this by including some new equipment that can be made from relatively easy-to-find resources, although this one needs the Shipwrecked DLC in order to function.

This mod includes 2 new pieces of armor as well as 3 weapons; all made from fish parts or similar components. Most of them can take and dish out a fair bit of damage, making them preferable to more common armor and weapons.

4 Geometric Placement

Due to the isometric and organic nature of Don't Starve, players can sometimes have a tough time placing things in neat arrangements.

The Geometric Placement mod can help out those who are particular about the setup of their base and even lets one place things in variously shaped patterns like squares, diamonds, and hexagons. This helpful grid is perfect for planning and the size, color, and other aspects can be adjusted for even greater usability.

3 Storm Cellar

Storage is a constant battle in this game, especially when handing resources that can go rotten. Fridges and chests take quite a lot of components each, therefore having a bigger option that deals with both storage and preservation concerns would be ideal.

That's where the Storm Cellar mod comes in, as it introduces a structure that possesses 80 slots that is fireproof, can keep things cool, and is immune to giant-based damage.

2 Wilson's Cabin

For those who have grown tired of living in a mud hut, there is the Wilson's Cabin mod. Despite seeming a bit strange to play a survival game and live in what looks like an excellent emulation of a modest house, this structure is a very comfortable residence.

When sleeping inside Wilson's Cabin, the player will gain 50 sanity and 60 health per rest for an excellent way to replenish these vital statuses.

1 Waiter 101

As one of the most expansive food item mods to be created, the Waiter 101 mod offers an insane 101 new food items into the game while being compatible with the Reign of Giants, Hamlet, and Shipwrecked DLCs.

There are so many new recipes that aspiring chefs would happily be able to spend hours cooking up a storm with their treasured crock pot.
