CrocMC

CrocMC is a Minecraft cross-play SMP server that has been running since July 2019. On CrocMC we offer a survival multiplayer experience free from things like claims, TPA or homes. We aim to grant players a comfortable experience without the restrictions most SMPs have. Along with this we offer custom dungeons made by the staff team. These dungeons offer custom mobs as well as items that can be used in the SMP. Of course, we make sure to balance these items as to not take away from the vanilla game. CrocMC is constantly hosting events as well as bringing new content to the server for players to enjoy. Among some of these things is an admin monitored shopping district that anyone can create a shop or buy things. Another thing is Croc Court, where players can bring minor cases to a court which is streamed to our YouTube channel. Season 11 starts October 22nd! Don’t miss the start of an exciting new experience!
