#Bc I'm not super into pvp and I'm not looking for smps at the moment so I really just want to play minigames

[grayeet]

The past few years I've been mourning the loss of old school minecraft minigame servers. I remember playing on the Hive and Mineplex and a bunch of other servers for hours because there were so many silly unique games to play.

But in the past few years I've found that there's really not much of that anymore. The Hive shut down and is only on Bedrock now (no hate to Bedrock but I personally just prefer Java and the Bedrock hive just looks like there's a different vibe), Mineplex shut down, and I feel like the minigame market is just dominated by Hypixel. I love hypixel, I grew up on it just like the other servers I mentioned, but let's all be honest here, it's really not as fun when there's only one place to go. (Also I'm super petty because their version of hide and seek is atrociously boring and I miss the Hive's hide and seek. Or even Mineplex's version with the mobs. This is the case with a lot of other gamemodes where I feel other servers did it better unfortunately.)

I know minigames aren't in the spotlight as much anymore. With the uptick of SMP content, that seems to have taken the forefront of the server market from what I've seen. And no hate to SMPs either, I love that kind of stuff, but I really do miss the variety of minigames.

So I really have to ask here, does anyone know any minigame servers other than Hypixel for java minecraft? Stuff that's not painfully competitive (Another of my issues with hypixel), maybe some classic survival games? Hide and seek obv, party style games, TTT, basically anything with the vibe of mid 2010s minigame servers because I've been looking for ages and for the life of me I can't seem to find anything and I'm desperate.
