5 Small Minecraft Servers YOU NEED TO TRY! (Top Minecraft Servers)

 

Hey there! What's going on guys! Today, I have for you 5 Small Minecraft Servers that I think you need to check out today! My favorite time playing Minecraft was when small servers really had their spots claimed out and people really enjoyed checking them out and trying to find a server and community for themself.

Now, of course, bigger servers like Hypixel rightfully have formed into something that people love playing...

But again, I still think finding a small community of people on some smaller, lesser known servers can really help give you a more entertaining or at least more community driven feel while playing Minecraft.. So without anything further, let's get started!

SurrealCraft

The first server to share with you today is called SurrealCraft. As with many smaller servers, SurrealCraft offers what it can and from what I've seen while playing it does a decent job with what it offers.

So, this server has two gamemodes: Factions and SkyBlock. I'm not sure on future plans but given server growth I'm sure they could potentially expand on that in the future.

But let's focus on what they do have now. I'm not much of a factions player so I didn't put too much time into that. The majority of people on the server do spend there time there, however.

Browsing through factions , I did see some of what you'd expect from a factions server, like crates, headhunting, proper tnt mechanics, daily KOTHS, a place to sell heads, a selection of other warps, and of course the usual active factions chat.

In skyblock, which is recently revamped and I spent a bit more time playing around in than factions, you can actually create 3 different types of islands to play on.

The original skyblock experience that you would expect, and duo island which is a little easier by having two close islands, and the black diamond islands which is a bit harder by having less resources for you to use! In the recently revamped Skyblock, there's a selection of crates, upgrades, generator upgrades, quests, and challenges that you can go through while playing in Skyblock and a PVP area too!

So, if you're looking to play on a smaller factions server or maybe even play on a Skyblock server in a small setting then you may want to check out SurrealCraft!

MineRifts

MineRifts is actually owned by a small YouTuber named Simo389. This server actually has quite a bit to offer. The gamemodes you'll find on here are Creative, Survival, SkyBlock, Dropper, KitPVP, War Games, and Parkour. Formerly known as Pandora Gaming, MineRifts recently went through a pretty big revamp aside from just the name.

They added new spawns to almost all of the gamemodes, added voting tokens and crates, a new look for chat, and fixed some bugs and old features. Within MineRifts, you may actually see player scattered throughout the different game types..

which I find is a bit uncommon for smaller servers as on these types of servers, players will usually drift towards one game. However, I like that the players were spread across the games as it adds balance in choosing what to do.

The game modes are all pretty self explainable with the exception of War Games which is their sort of minigame hub.. with Capture the Flag, Defend the Flag and some more coming soon! I actually spent quite a bit of time playing dropper as I always enjoy dropper.

There are some pretty solid maps here and it definitely gets a thumbs up for me as a fun little game to do to pass the time with!

This server is actually a bit bigger than the pervious two in terms of player base. I noticed that there is often up over 300 or so players on this server at a time. So, while the experience won't be as personal, it is still small enough to form an experience that is more personal that that of a very large server. Teldaria calls itself survival reimagined.

In their recent release, they announced that the server will have over 25 in-game ranks, over 30 custom mobs with each mob having up to 12 difficulty levels, a unique weapon and armor system with unique drops, a number of different jobs that you can get paid for in-game to purchase items from other players, and mob arenas.

WynnCraft

On their website, you'll be able to find that they have a starting guide to get you on your way on the server. I've always thought that WynnCraft was a cool server and have strived to find something similar to it for a while that I truly enjoyed playing.

This server isn't like Wynncraft in many aspects but it does share some qualities of Wynncraft that I really like. I can go as far as saying that I may even enjoy my experience playing this type of reimagined survival more than I enjoyed Wynncraft. Again, slightly different experiences but that just goes to show how well this server is developed and how great of an idea it is.

IceCraftNation

IceCraftNation gives me the feel of a more classic bukkit type Minecraft server. Let me explain what I mean by that. Before huge multiserver networks started taking over, or even towards the beginning of that time period, servers like this were still moreorless thriving.

The main location on this server is the survival server where players hang out, chat, and just enjoy themselves. It's not basic survival as it has different plugins that add things like jobs, vehicles, marriage, auctions, an econonmy, McMMO and more.

This is the type of server that gave me the type of Minecraft experience that made me come to love the game. Now, I haven't personally seen anyone on any of the other gamemodes but you'll also find creative, skywars, factions, skyblock, and PVP on the server.

This isn't some crazy amazingly developed server. It's a small community of friendly people in an experience that I grew to love on servers like the Lilville server (which is still up and running, IP in the description).

Maybe it's a bit of nostalgia for me but I really like the way this server is run and I think it's a great place to to join a community.

I've played a bit on my alt account here and I've come to really enjoy the type of people around here. To finish off, I'm actually returning to a more modern type of server and less of a nostalgia feeling for me but I think this server is really fantastic, honestly. With most players scattered between Towny, Skyblock, and Creative..

Crafters Cove

Crafters Cove also offers Parkour, Avatar Bending, KitPVP, SkyWars, Build Battle, Survival Games, CS:GO, and a bit more for you to choose from! Formerly known as Andromeda, MelonMC, and BlockVille, it seems that Crafters Cove has a pretty loyal player base, with many of them spending their time within the Towny survival server.

The owner of Crafters Cove, explains that it's a corner of the interent for Crafters to thrive and survive in. And that isn't restricted to towny or minigames like some MelonMC or Blockville.

We'll see what types of games that they may come up with in the future. Going through changes is something that this server has come accustomed to. Whether that is seen as a good or bad thing can be determined individually but going forward, I think Crafter's Cove is in a good spot.

I'm sure they'll all be happy to have you around. Small servers, and small communities, were once the cornerstone of what made Minecraft fantastic. It's an aspect of why so many grew to enjoy the game in the first place. So I gave you five small servers to check out and enjoy. If you're interested in seeing some more servers, just let me know and I can make more article like this!

I'm always happy to share things with you guys that you might not know about! If you have your own server or play on a server that you think others like, please let us know in the comments too! Okay! Thanks again for visiting my blog! I'm out of here!

  See you!.
