Here are mods I suggest for everyday simple “classic” Minetest Game game play.
Own mods
I am biased towards using those mods because I created them.
| Mod name | Short description | Resources |

| Cement | Craftable and “makeable“ cement blocks | Git, CDB |

| Timespeed | Configurable day/night time speeds | Git, CDB |
| Unified Hammers | Hammers that can be used to crush nodes | Git, CDB |
| mTimer | Showing ingame and reallife times and periods | Git, CDB |
| redef | Minor Redefinitions (behavior, textures) | Git, CDB |
| xCoal | Extra coal variants (game-agnostic) | Git, CDB |
3rd-party mods
I think those mods are useful additions to Minetest Game.
