Waychest is a survival server that feels like a huge shared world where everyone is on their own little adventure. When you join you start what they call a Journey. It is like your own private area in the same big world and you can bring friends too.

As you explore you slowly find out you are not actually alone. There are special chests called Waychests. They point you toward other places and other players who were there before you. You can follow them across the world and see what other people have built and left behind.

You can even make your own Waychests later. Then the next players can discover your base and your ideas. There is also a flying minigame that uses Elytra and rings in the world. You fly through the rings and it leads to another Waychest that someone else made.

The server feels like a mix of a normal public SMP and a private realm. It uses a mostly vanilla style with a few custom systems to make exploration and discovery matter more. The version is 1.21.11 Java and it is PvE so the focus is on building and adventuring instead of fighting other players.
