What Prismo is

Prismo is the publisher of Zephyr, a free, open-source desktop mod manager for Linux, macOS, and Windows. Zephyr lets players browse Thunderstore and CurseForge, install and update mods, and organize setups for about 200 games. Separate profiles can be created and switched for each game, then shared through a code or link. Optional cloud sync uses Discord sign-in to synchronize profiles across devices. Without sign-in, profiles, configuration files, and preferences remain on the device, while public mod metadata uses anonymous requests. Zephyr also includes an Archipelago multiworld randomizer with a bundled Python runtime, a configuration editor, gamepad navigation, and seven languages. The project is GPL-3.0 licensed, with source on GitHub. Downloads include Windows .exe, Linux AppImage and .deb, and macOS .dmg installers. Cloud-enabled profile archives and metadata are stored with Prismo Studios’ hosting provider in France.

Good

  • Supports about 200 games out of the box
  • Combines Thunderstore and CurseForge browsing
  • Profiles can be shared by code or link
  • Runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows
  • GPL-3.0 licensed with GitHub source

Watch out

  • Cloud sync requires Discord sign-in
  • Cloud data is stored with a French hosting provider
  • No sign-in means no cross-device profile sync

Who it suits

Zephyr suits players managing mods across supported games on desktop systems. It also fits users who want shareable profiles, optional synchronization, or an open-source project.

Verdict

Prismo’s Zephyr brings broad game support, profile management, and two major mod sources into one desktop app. Its local-first behavior and open-source license may appeal to privacy-conscious users, while cloud syncing is optional.
