We are a Minecraft survival multiplayer server (SMP). In our vanilla server, you'll be able to enjoy Minecraft without any modifications, without money, without any extra commands. We event left the chat untouched! We can safely claim that you won't find any other Minecraft server more vanilla than ours. You can not claim any builds here, and we consider ourselves a competitive server, but you'll find plenty of people who will help you get started. We are not 2b2t, so griefing for the sake of destroying is not allowed. You'll have fun playing this game mode, getting to know new amazing people, create your little town or base, and just enjoying the game as you used to do when you created that server using hamachi when you were 9 🥲. You can't teleport to players, this is a vanilla server! And we don't have ranks or vote rewards either!

In our economy server, you'll find a completely unique economy system. Here, you'll be delighted with money appearing when breaking ores, chopping down trees, harvesting crops, and more! They even make a satisfying "Kaching!" sound when you get them 🥹, beautiful. You can claim your builds and safely play with friends without having the risk of any strangers breaking into your precious house.

Choosing a Vanilla server

Check whether the server is fully vanilla or uses plugins for claims, moderation, and quality-of-life features.

Check the supported edition and version, read the server rules, then open its profile for connection details. Rankings use player votes; sponsored listings are marked HOT.
