Cracked servers, also known as Offline Mode, allows for non-paying Minecraft users to have access to multiplayer games. Not only that, but because they exist apart from Mojang, Cracked servers allow for playtime during public-server outages.
Without any further ado, let’s take a look at these fan-servers to see what kinds of games they can offer!

Guildcraft might have been more popular a few years back, but if you haven’t explored it yet, it’s worth checking out. There’s a decent amount of games to keep you busy, as well as regular updates.

- Survival, a classic
- Skyblock, this is what it’s known for
