PureCraft

MineCraft Server and Community
Turned Business

Founded in 2014, PureCraft is a Minecraft Prison server home to a community of over 300 players. 

Minecraft prison servers are all about starting as a little fish in a big pond and working your way to the top. Once there, players have the option to "break free" from the prison. In order for players to move their way up the ladder, they’ll have to mine blocks in designated areas and then sell them to make money and "rankup" to the next mine. The cycle continues until the player can break free.
