Calm 18+ survival, no PvP, no pay-to-win. Soup on the square every Sunday, errands from Odo the clerk every Monday, and a world that will never be reset.
Kettlewood is a quiet survival server for adults. Keep-inventory is on (you keep your things when you die), and what you build stays: nobody can take it.
Brannoch keeps the forge and mends what others won't. The townsfolk have their tastes and birthdays; bring the right gift and they warm to you. When the town needs goods, everyone chips in and the town builds something new. The museum keeps empty cases marked "not here yet".
Settle in town with a plot or a market shop, paid in Embers (four of the shops are free). Or take the hot-air balloon from the harbour: it sets you down somewhere in the countryside, and you claim that corner for free. Your claim grows as you play.
Mine in The Diggings, a resource world under the town hall, renewed on the 1st of every month, so the 10 x 10 km main world stays beautiful. A treasure hunt every month: seven chests, then the great one. Mob parties on the Mushroom Island.
Embers, the town's money, are earned by playing (an hourly wage, AFK excluded, and a daily counter) and are never sold. The store sells cosmetic ranks, hats and bonuses for the whole server.
Anyone 18+ can log in and look around. To build, type /rules and confirm on our website: two minutes.
