Pearlmc

Pearlmc is a graylist, anticheat, survival server that offers balance between fun and challenging play. It has four worlds: Lokai, Dasmir, Essalo, and Ateph. Lokai offers a “normal” overworld experience with a spawn town and land protections. Dasmir offers a self-paced nether experience, also with land protection available. Essalo provides an endworld experience with increased difficulty and enforced PvP. Ateph is a custom-generated novelty world that offers a sub-hardcore atmosphere.
