So What's the Deal? 

Classic. Nostalgic. Barebones. Prison.

Remember 2014 Prison servers?

No overpowered armor.
No instant-sell mines.
You actually had to grind.
You had to smelt.
You had to walk through PVP zones to sell.
You had to survive.

If you miss that era — this server was built for you.

What Makes This Server Different?

- No Instasell — old-school commissary selling
- Prestige System — continue progression after max rank
- Custom Fishing
- Mob Arena with boss waves
- Cookie Farming / Bakery Economy
- Illegal Crops — high risk, high reward
- Guards enforcing contraband rules
- Rent Cells & Plots
- Auction House
- Bounties System
- Solitary Confinement
- Parkour Challenges
- Player Shops

Staff Roles

Guard – Helper
SrGuard – Moderator
Warden – Administrator
SrWarden – Senior Administrator

What Is a Guard?

Guards are the staff of the server. Apart from helping manage the server and ensure rules are followed, they also provide true prison roleplay by:

• Going on Duty
• Enforcing no PvP, weapons, potions and illegal crops; which if caught will either result in an attempt to kill you or jail time
• Patrolling the prison to ensure everything is in order

It’s Time to Bring Back the Era of Classic Prison!
