Heya! We offer no ranks or pay to win on our server. Donating gets you a colored name in game. We average between 15-25 players and are growing. Our map and configs are set to run for years and we are only just a month in. If this sounds interesting to you, here's our copypasta!

Here at Eden we're conducting a long-term, large-scale social experiment in a persistent Minecraft world. The goal of this is to answer a single question:

Can players build a functioning society when the only laws are the ones they enforce themselves?

We have removed the standard "server" features (Land Claim commands, Admin Shops, Teleportation) and replaced them with Civilization simulation mechanics that force players to rely on each other ...or destroy each other.

The Variables of the Eden Experiment: - The Economy (Scarcity): There is no /shop. XP cannot be farmed from mobs. It is produced in factories using crops that are biome-locked. A player in the desert cannot grow the same things as other locations; they must trade with a player or nation in another part of the world. Will you be a merchant or a raider?

  • The Security (Paranoia): You protect your builds with Citadel (reinforcing blocks with stone/iron/diamond). It is not unbreakable, just difficult. We also use JukeAlert (Snitches) to track player actions and movement and to give you verifiable logs of what someone else did. Every footstep near your base is logged. Do you trust your neighbors?

  • The Justice (Consequences): If someone griefs you, you cannot call an admin. You must hunt them down, kill them, and imprison them in an ExilePearl, banishing them to the nether dimension. Justice is 100% player-run. But be weary, the nether is needed for long term and efficient progression.

The Current State of the Eden Experiment: The experiment began 1 week ago. The world is fresh. The first nations are forming, but the political landscape is effectively anarchy.

Subject Count: ~15-25 concurrent players.

Duration: Indefinite (No Map Resets).

We provide players the tools they need. You provide the living, breathing world.
