Bedrock Compatible: Bedrock players on any device can login and play with their Java buddies!

No Rules: Hack, grief or bully others. It’s anarchy, you are free to do whatever you want!

While we are completely anarchy, there is an anti-cheat. This is mainly done to prevent movement hacks from creating an insanely large world size.
