Join our Minecraft server and experience a world where the creepers are actually friendly and give you hugs instead of exploding! Our server is so epic that even the Ender Dragon has taken up knitting as a hobby. Plus, rumor has it that if you find the secret diamond block hidden in the Nether, you’ll be granted three wishes by a magical llama named Larry.

But the real reason you should join our server? Our admin is the best robot master this side of the digital universe! They can build a redstone contraption faster than you can say “creeper explosion,” and their command block skills are so advanced, they once turned a pig into a disco ball for a dance party in the village square. So come on over and join us for some seriously silly Minecraft fun!

Our server is a carefully built Minecraft original survival server, version number 1.20.4, which provides players with a pure and challenging gaming experience. In addition to the basic game functions, we have also added some selected plug-ins to enhance the interactivity and fun of the game, but it will never affect the balance and fairness of the game. In terms of server configuration, we use a stable i3-6320 CPU with 16GB of memory, running on the Ubuntu 24 LTS system, ensuring efficient operation and stability of the server. In order to better manage the server, we have two professional operation and maintenance personnel who are responsible for daily maintenance and updates to ensure that players can enjoy a smooth gaming experience. In addition, we have implemented a registration mechanism to effectively prevent security issues such as hacking and ensure the security of player accounts. We are committed to creating a pure survival server environment, allowing players to explore, build and survive without external interference. We sincerely invite every player who loves Minecraft to join our server and create our own world together.

Why should you join, you ask? Well, let me tell you a little story. Once upon a time, a player joined our server and found a secret chest filled with enchanted golden carrots. Legend has it that those carrots gave him the power to fly like a chicken and swim like a dolphin.

But that’s not all! Our server is also home to the rarest mob in all of Minecraft – the elusive rainbow sheep. If you manage to find one, you’ll be granted three wishes by the Minecraft gods themselves.

So what are you waiting for? Join our server today and embark on the craziest Minecraft adventure of your life. Just be warned, once you join, you may never want to leave.

SURVIVING WILL NOT BE EASY This is not a server suitable for beginners. Even veteran players of Minecraft may die frequently. If you aren’t an experienced Minecraft player but still want to experience the thrill of the apocalypse, it is recommended that you either play with friends or form teams/alliances with other people on the server. There are many zombie variants in this server. Some can sprint, some can break, some can build. There are many more variants aside from just those 3, but they are the most important ones. Every 7 in-game days, an event called “The Bloodmoon” happens, where hordes of zombies will spawn around you, at which point you must have either built or found a safe, defended base, or you run for your life. There is also the option of digging into a 3 deep hole and covering yourself up but you will have to deal with a horde of zombies once you come up.

King’s Multiverse is a creative-building server where we rebuild the famous location’s of Stephen King’s multiverse. These places include

Derry (From It, Insomnia, Dreamcatcher and more)

Castle Rock (From Needfull things, Deadzone, The dark half and many more )

Midworld (From the Dark Tower series)

Many more places and locations set in Stephen King’s Multiverse.

If you want to join us please join our discord server! Our server is currently whitelisted due to the fact that the server is entirely creative.

We have some pretty ambitious ideas for the server (Including a kind off mystery adventure where your goal is to reach the dark tower from one of the famous Stephen King locations) which you can all find in our discord channel

Are you interested in helping us recreate the world of Stephen King and have some fun with an extremely friendly community? Join us! We’d love to see you there!
