The Pen MC is a classic prison server that feels like the 2014 era. It is barebones and all about the grind. You do not get overpowered armor and you do not get instant sell mines so you actually work for your money.
Mining is the main vibe where you smelt ores yourself then travel through pvp zones to sell and try to survive. After you rank up you can keep going with a prestige system and it lets you pick different ways to progress instead of only one path.
There is also custom fishing that can earn good money with special rewards and boosts. If you like fighting there is a mob arena with waves and boss fights where you can earn money and shards with other players.
The bakery system is a whole cookie farming grind. You grow wheat and cocoa then bake cookies with custom mechanics and do long term cookie quests and leaderboard stuff for higher tier rewards.
It also has parole so you can leave prison and build farms. Guards enforce contraband rules and illegal crops are high risk and high reward. You can rent cells and plots use auction house bounties parkour challenges player shops and even get sent to solitary. The server says premium stuff can be earned in game too so it is not focused on pay to win.
