Hardvival is an innovative Minecraft server located in the United States, currently running version 1.21.3. It emphasizes a semi-anarchy gameplay style while focusing on the survival elements of Minecraft. The server aims to redefine what survival means in the game. By making various adjustments to gameplay features, such as mob difficulty, item drops, and crafting recipes, Hardvival enhances the challenge and overall enjoyment of the game.

Additionally, Hardvival maintains a sense of vanilla Minecraft authenticity, ensuring that the core gameplay experience remains intact while allowing for a more challenging and rewarding environment. The semi-anarchy nature of the server permits players a great deal of freedom in how they choose to play and interact with others, with the only major restriction being the prohibition of cheating.
