Evercraft was founded in September of 2019. We originally recruited solely through Reddit, and so many of our original members are from various Reddit communities like /r/MCPE, /r/MinecraftOne, and /r/Realms. Eventually we expanded our presence and started recruiting through our own website, Twitter, YouTube, and partnerships with other Discord servers.
Many years later, and Evercraft is still active today. We are a mature community with a mostly 18+ player-base, though we do make exceptions for mature players aged 13 and up. Although we are based out of North America, we have members and staff from all around the world. We also try to regularly host in-game events to engage and immerse players.
Evercraft started small as a group of Minecrafters from around reddit. Back in September of 2019, I put out my first “Looking for Players” post on reddit with nothing more than a bare bones world and a freshly created Discord server. We have been growing consistently through the same grassroots methods ever since.

Opening right around the beginning of lockdowns in the US for the COVID-19 pandemic, Evercraft Version 2 was a much needed break away from reality for a lot of great folks. While the Realm had a pretty casual atmosphere at this time, it was packed with players on a daily basis.

Following on the popularity of Version 2, Evercraft Version 3 opened full steam ahead with a dedicated staff team to support the growing community. Inspired by the rising popularity of Minecraft content on YouTube, players started building bigger and grander builds, starting the era of megabases on Evercraft.

With the Minecraft Renaissance era fully taking over YouTube at this point, megabases were becoming the new normal on Evercraft. End-game came quick, and most players lived in post-scarcity thanks to countless redstone farms, signaling the slow decline of player run shops in favor of shared resources and cooperative farms/storage.

The worst of the pandemic was behind us at this point, and many players hung up their pickaxes to head back to work, school, and spend time with family. Minecraft updates had also began to slow compared to their previous pace, so as a community we decided to have a short intermediary season, and Summer Season was born.
Thanks to a tactical decision to locate the shopping district at world spawn, in both the Overworld and Nether, Season 5 saw a resurgence in shops and economic activity. Players had to be careful spawn-proofing their Nether based shops, but they offered maximum convenience for traveling shoppers.

In addition to many player bases, Season 5 featured two public arenas to host community events, duels, and other shenanigans.
After experimenting with some side projects like our Java-based sister server Vox SMP, and the PVP focused Everstart, Evercraft officially returned with Chapter Zero to kick off a new, casual, lore-focused era of Evercraft.

After a successful Chapter Zero run, we hopped into Chapter One with a tight-knit group in an even tighter mountain valley. An extra small world-border early on encouraged new and creative gameplay before opening up later in the Chapter.
With a roughly two year hiatus between Chapter One and Two, Evercrafters were itching to jump into Realms again. Just in time for the Chaos Cubed update, we launched Chapter Two, officially ending Evercraft’s hibernation.
I have been a part of Evercraft for around 4 months or so now and have greatly enjoyed the community. Its is mainly for 18+ with a few younger respectful individuals and I know I can safely record the chat while making Minecraft videos or not worry about any NSFW conversations/images showing while in the office. It has been a very respectful and growing community of likeminded individuals who delight in playing Minecraft (Bedrock) and socializing with each other.

The discord is well organized and active, very friendly. The server has amazing shops and builds, with an A+ economy.

It’s been pretty fun getting to build and be a part of a community; I’ve enjoyed getting to see other people’s builds and be apart of an event! I like how the shopping center looks so quaint and cute. The server has been nice to meet people since I’m on mobile. And the lore interests me, but I don’t know what’s going to happen. Really curious to see how that turns out and what, if any, role I’ll be playing in it.

Honestly the Evercraft Community is one made of acceptance and friendship. As a relatively new player to Minecraft they have helped, taught and accepted me into the family with open arms. I count each and everyone of them as some of my best online friends!
No. Since its founding Evercraft has used Discord as its primary place to post rules, updates, and other important information about the server. Staying in the Discord server is the only way to stay on the whitelist.
Do you have to be 18 to join?
Not technically. In the past Evercraft had an 18+ only rule, but currently our only requirements are 13+ (which is required to use Discord) and that you mesh with the community. However if you are younger, ask yourself if you’d enjoy playing with a bunch of old farts. 🤷
Can I make videos/stream on Evercraft?
Yes! Content creators of all kind are welcomed on Evercraft. However we have suspended our Creator Program.
Can I use the Evercraft logo for ________?
Maybe, check out our Brand Guidelines page for copies of our logo and guidelines on its usage.
