Best Survival Minecraft Servers

About our vanilla server
We are a Minecraft survival multiplayer server (SMP). Here you’ll find multiple game modes, including our fully vanilla game mode, the original vanilla game mode we all know and love, the way Minecraft was intended to be played. We also have a separate economy gamemode, you can learn more about it below.

On this 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. The reason behind that is simple — vanilla servers are economically non-viable, unless you have a decent, sustained amount of support from the community. Thankfully, we do have that support, thanks to being the greatest, best vanilla server for the 1.20 Minecraft version.

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, there are also pretty chill players. Just watch out and don’t build too close to spawn, people won’t grief your builds unless they have a good competitive reason to do so. 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 🥲. Join and you’ll see it for yourself.

About our survival economy server
In order to guarantee a lag-free experience, good game play, perfect ping and make our server viable, we also have another game mode, our economy sever. Note this server is completely individual from our vanilla server, so you won’t find any economy-related features on the vanilla realm. Thanks to our years of expertise, we know how to create the best survival server for Minecraft 1.20. We can claim that thanks to our 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.

Here, you can claim your builds and safely play with friends without having the risk of any strangers breaking into your precious house. You can even monetize your claims by creating a public warp, players will be able to pay in order to unlock the warp. This is amazing for players trying create XP farms and making them public while also getting something in return!

You can also create your own shops here. It is really fun to create design it yourself. You’ll get notifications when people are looking at it, and you can make great friends by participating in the economy of the server. Trading is more than welcome on this server, and you’ll find yourself collaborating with other players to make your dream builds come true.

Wrapping up…

About server updates and resets
Make sure you are using the latest Minecraft version (1.20 as I’m typing this). The server very much updated. For real, this server is usually the first server among of the thousands listed on this site to update its Minecraft version. We want all players to enjoy releases as soon as they are published, so you won’t have to wait more than a day to play them!

We also don’t reset out world, unless more players want us to reset it. For example, last time we waited about 3 years to reset our map. We also did reset the nether dimension when the nether update dropped. We are very reasonable with this topic, and we take player legacy very seriously. We follow a democratic process for this, and, chances are, if you don’t want the world to be reset, most players won’t like the idea either, so your builds, your time, and your grinding is safe on this server, that is just one of the many reasons players trust us 🙂.

About the community
The players are amazing. That’s all we have to say about the players in this server; they are friendly, fun, chill, and competitive when they need to be. You can chat with us on our Discord guild by clicking here. We also do some cool events, and do videos featuring player builds, such as this one!

DISCLAIMER:
This server is not child friendly. If any parents are reading this, try another server for your young child. My friendgroup consists of largely people 25+, and in many cases, 30+. If you’re under the age of 16, this probably isn’t an appropriate environment, weird and spicy topics just come up normally in conversation. I ain’t liable for lil Timmy stumbling over here!

The server starts out with a guardian and a “chosen” villain who gets the butterfly miraculous, you can keep your identity a secret by changing your name though that doesn’t really matter since people will figure out who you are anyways.

You can cause chaos, summon the wither storm and already ruin the none made progress, create factions, etc. Become a vampire or a werewolf or hunt them. With these mods there’s a bunch of fun possibilities.

(For better optimization make sure to set your FPS to UNLIMITED and other optimization options.)

The guardian has to protect the miraclebox and can give out miraculous to trusted holders.

But for a set of rules, you are allowed to do a lot of things BUT. Do NOT click on the Miricale box, if you’re not the Guardian as it will make the Miraculous VANISH, you are allowed to destroy it but do not open it.

If the Wither storm or any big boss is summoned you can NOT turn into the Collector, Style queen or any Akumutised Form that one shots. It will ruin the fun (others are allowed as long as they don’t ruin the fun)

How the wish works

If you manage to obtain both of the Miraculous of the Cat and Bug you may make a “wish” either actually summon Gimmi or summon Gimmi and ask an Admin to grant your wish, this may be as exchanging Miraculous, getting certain builds, blocks, etc. But it has to be exchanged for a fair price for example if you’d like another Miraculous you’d have to exchange one of your own. If you’d like to take another players Miraculous you’d have to exchange your own, if you’d like someone else’s role you’d have to exchange your own.

The main rule is keep the server fun for everyone do whatever but make sure it’s within moral fun boundaries and not just I’m gonna nuke everything because why not.

Most importantly, HAVE FUN!!!
