BUILD-FRIENDLY Community SERVER | NOW IN 1.20!

BY STUDENTS, FOR STUDENTS.

Dormcraft was created by students at Western Washington University in pursuit of one simple goal: To bring college students & alumni together with a game we all know and love. Since November 2019, we have been committed to providing an engaging and cleanly presented semi-vanilla Minecraft experience for our playerbase. Whether you want to socialize, trade, build a castle, PvP, or just hunt for diamonds, Dormcraft has you covered. Though the server is open to everyone, Current WWU students are invited to register as official members of Dormcraft using the button below.
 

*This server is a not-for-profit venture, funded by the project's developers and donations from the community.

AT A GLANCE

BUILD-FRIENDLY SURVIVAL

Our game is built with that classic "this server is hosted on my friend's overheating laptop"  vibe in mind, albeit on much better hardware. When considering the addition of new features, we at Dormcraft try to preserve the nostalgic feel of Minecraft's original building-focused survival multiplayer communities. To us, this means keeping the game's vanilla features wherever possible, and making changes with the goal of enhancing the survival experience, rather than transforming it.

​

Unlike many servers, we avoid immersion-breaking game mechanics such as gambling-style micro transactions, coin/gem/token-based currencies, and 'voting' rewards, opting instead to make changes which reward returning players and encourage collaborative survival! Players have permission to build anywhere as soon as they join, and often self-organize towns and settlements due to the ease with which friends can get started building too. Quickly jumping into the game, claiming a plot of land, leveling up your skills by excavating it, and then building a base or a shop to sell your newfound loot is as easy as that. And with a land claim in place, you can come back whenever you want, without worrying about your stuff!

Land Claims

To build with confidence, players can claim plots of land to protect them from harm of any kind using golden shovels. More land can be bought ingame or earned, and plots can be shared with friends!

Item Trading
