UnixMC develops towns from a camp: levels unlock buildings, NPCs and shared storage. Each town funds its airship with charge and fuel, then adds modules to the helm, including a camera orbiting its claim. Raids target a single chunk, with five minutes of preparation, three pylons and a core to break. The market lets players set prices and take orders. Java and Bedrock share the same world.
SoftSlayer, founded in June 2011, offers survival with a whitelist requested on Discord in #apply-here. The server advertises keeping its world and expanding the border with each major update. It has no land claims: staff use tracking tools to protect builds. Griefing and stealing are forbidden.
One Peace protects land with Protection Stones and logs block changes so staff can repair damage. Jobs pay for activities, while player shops and auctions support trading. mcMMO skills, custom recipes and backpacks add to survival in a shared Java and Bedrock world.
HeartSMP’s Lifesteal branch transfers one heart for each player kill; losing every heart leads to temporary imprisonment at spawn. Clans can protect bases with Lands, but the guide states that no claim is entirely safe from raids. The BattlePass offers daily and weekly quests. This branch is advertised for Java and Bedrock.
RqlixMC presents a Java and Bedrock network whose worlds are chosen through a server selector. In ElytraBox, players mine themed rooms, trade up from Shards to Crowns and take their gear into an elytra arena. Practice offers PvP kits with a rating and division ladder. Pillars of Fortune provides random loot through lucky blocks: players knock opponents into the void to be the last one standing.
The Minemee website dates the server’s creation under that name to 2011 and its rebranding to Ethereal to 2015. Its connection message now presents Ethereal as a community SMP.
ArchitectMC centres survival on lasting builds, with claims, friend permissions and diamond trading. PvP is opt-in in the wilderness and disabled on protected plots. After a non-PvP death, items wait for five minutes in a locked chest located with a compass. Votes award materials and expand the world border. Java and Bedrock share the same map, advertised as never wiping.
Element Animation is an English-speaking Minecraft server open to Java and Bedrock players, offering popular game modes such as Survival and Creative.
StellaRealm presents cosmic-themed survival with land claims. Claims must stay at least four chunks from another player’s claims unless that owner gives permission. PvP is disabled by default and requires participants’ consent; stealing and damaging other players’ builds are prohibited. Public chat must be in English, while other languages are allowed in private messages and land chat. Alternate accounts are allowed, but not for multiple-account voting. Devices intended to bypass the AFK kick are prohibited.
Queercraft welcomes LGBTQ+ people and their allies into survival governed by building and conduct rules. Griefing is forbidden and the main chat uses English. Separate worlds accommodate map art, urban builds and space themes. The market limits each player to one shop and lets chests be configured to buy or sell items; merchants must meet a minimum activity requirement.
ArdakazMC offers survival focused on building and cooperation, with spawn remaining open for construction. Players can create shops and warps, and the community hosts events. There are no kits or automatic inventory retention on death. Griefing is prohibited and can be investigated and rolled back by moderation.
BattleCraft announced its public launch in 2026. It includes a GTA mode within Minecraft: weapons gain levels, and player level 20 unlocks a base with storage and passive-income farms. MineWars combines combat, resource collection and island building with prestige progression and team play. Its PlayerVaults and VoidVaults help secure loot, and bots can participate on some sparsely populated maps.

LegendsMC offers Survival with claims, trading, shops and MCMMO, where equipment can reach high enchantments such as a Sharpness 50 sword. Its Lifesteal mode is combined with factions. In OneBlock, the starting block supplies items and materials for expanding the island.
Craftadia offers survival with land protected through /claim: building, breaking and looting are restricted to invited players. Resources can be sold to the admin shop or player shops, and towns require an invitation. The guide asks players to enable the resource pack. Staff do not roll back unclaimed land.

On Android and iOS, use Minecraft Bedrock. Under Play, then Servers, add the server name, Bedrock address and port. A Java-only address is not sufficient.
Check that the server supports Bedrock and that your friends can join it from their consoles. A matching server name is not enough: editions and joining methods must be compatible.
The selected sort determines the listing order. Online player counts come from status queries, without votes or paid ranking. The map shows an estimated connection IP country. Language filters use operator declarations, server settings and text, or information from the official website. The source is shown on the listing. Machine country does not determine the in-game language.
