HoneyCup Cafe SMP is a cozy survival server that sticks close to vanilla. It feels relaxed and community driven and it is made for long term play.
It has a few quality of life tweaks so the game is less grindy like VeinMiner for mining. There is also a server run GUI shop for buying and selling.
The owner is friendly and mature and the rules are meant to be fair. There is grief protection too so your builds can stay safe and the map is meant to last without constant resets.
It is the kind of place where you can build a cafe run a shop or just chill and mine at your own pace.
LegacyMC is a vanilla anarchy survival server that keeps things raw and simple. It is an open world with no rules and no gameplay changing plugins. There is no pay to win stuff either.
The world started in June 2025 so it still feels like a place where you can matter. There are no resets and no land claims so anything you build can be found and anything can be destroyed. PvP is on and griefing and raiding are allowed.
It runs on always online dedicated hardware in Australia so it is made for low latency for Australia and New Zealand players. There is no whitelist and no admin interference so you just join and play. Donations are not needed and they will not be asked for.
Exodus is a semi vanilla survival server that is mostly about geopolitics not roleplay. The world is only 5000 by 5000 so stuff runs out and people have to trade more.
You do not have to be good at PvP. You can focus on building or politics instead and still have a good time.
The rules are simple and strict. No griefing no duping and no x ray. The end and nether are closed. Farms have to be hidden and there are rules meant to make PvP better.
This server feels like it is trying to be a Witcher style adventure but in Minecraft. The owner spent about 2.5 months making lore and there is an ongoing book with 7 chapters that are around 2000 words each.
It is the owners first server and it starts on 11 or 12 Feb. The server has both pvp and non pvp roles and both matter. Builders seem a little more important but fighters can build too.
Community is a big deal here and players are expected to interact. Your choices can change the world lore in real ways and it is not just a tiny line of text. There are NPCs too and if you ignore the lore you can accidentally make one angry.
The age limit is 15 plus and the rules and etiquette are taken seriously. The server uses minimal plugins and leans more on hard work and custom ideas. You can play casual or you can grind and try to beat the nether dungeon.
