This is a survival server that feels really old school. It was started in 2020 when the owner and some friends wanted Minecraft to feel simple again. A lot of servers had confusing plugins and land claim systems and it ruined the basic survival vibe. On this server you just play normal survival without claim blocks or weird menus.
The world runs on hard difficulty so it is actually a challenge. Mobs hit hard and you have to think before you go out at night. There is an item based economy so players trade with actual stuff instead of weird custom money. The plugins are only small quality of life things so the game still feels like normal Minecraft.
The staff is pretty hands off so they do not hover over you all the time. The community is small but active and has been around for a while so it feels steady. There is also a discord community where people talk and hang out.
The server is on version 1.21.x and it supports both Java and Bedrock players by using a special port. The host machine is in Texas in the United States so players in that region usually get good connection.
If you want a simple survival world with real risk and not a ton of complicated systems this server fits that style a lot.
