# Item Hunt — Runner vs Seekers
 
**Item Hunt** is a thrilling Minecraft minigame data pack where one **Runner** attempts to collect assigned target items while a team of **Seekers** hunts them down!
 
Combining classic Manhunt suspense with random item collection challenges, **Item Hunt** brings fast-paced, highly customizable multiplayer fun to your server.

## How It Works
 
1. **Assign Roles:** One player is chosen as the **Runner**, and the rest become **Seekers**.
2. **Item Roulette:** The Runner is assigned target items randomly selected from configured difficulty pools.
3. **The Hunt Begins:** The Runner gets a configurable **Head Start** to gather resources and start crafting/finding the target item.
4. **Track & Survive:** Seekers receive a **Tracker Compass** (with cooldowns) pointing toward the Runner.
5. **Winning Conditions:**
* **Runner Wins** by obtaining the target items before time runs out or being killed.
* **Seekers Win** by eliminating the Runner before they complete the item goal!
