SmokeyMC is a towny style SMP server where players build towns and play together. Some towns can stay peaceful and others can go to war so it feels like a big world with different choices.
The server has playtime based ranks and jobs so you level up just by spending time online and doing work. There are also MCMMO skills so you get that extra feeling of progression when you mine fight or do other stuff. It has custom terrain too so exploring the world looks different than normal.
There are extra worlds like random teleport worlds resource worlds and flat worlds so you do not always have to mess up your main town area. The server has an online map where you can see towns and battles which is really helpful for planning.
You can cross play on both Java and Bedrock and the server runs on Minecraft 1.21.10. There is optional Discord voice chat for people who like to talk while they play. The server is made to be lag free and it also runs fun monthly events so there is always something new happening.
Players can make their own shops and use in game balance to trade with each other so the economy is run by the community. Overall the vibe feels chill and community based with a mix of building trading and sometimes fighting between towns.
