Wynncraft is a fantasy massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) Minecraft server created by Jumla, Salted, and Grian, and released in April 2013. According to Salted, one of the server's owners, over 2.9 million players have played on the server as of March 2021.

Gameplay

Wynncraft's gameplay includes completing quests, joining guilds, completing dungeons, and fighting bosses. Before a tutorial start in the Fruma province, one of Wynncraft's five known provinces, players are required to select a class between Archer, Assassin, Mage, Warrior, and Shaman. The server's world has an approximate size of 4,400 by 5,500 blocks (meters), and consists of four provinces: Wynn, Corkus, Gavel and Silent Expanse, divided by an ocean with islands. Wynncraft's design is inspired by the MMORPG RuneScape, and as of 2021, it has hundreds of quests. Aside from the cost of Minecraft, the server is free-to-play, with players being able to purchase cosmetic in-game items.

Reception

Wynncraft received generally positive reviews. Writing for Kotaku Australia, Luke Plunkett praised Wynncraft's map and called the server "a full and proper MMO". Carl Velasco of Tech Times said that the server is "nuts" and "a stunning example of what can be created using Minecraft's own sandbox engine". Austin Wood, writing for PC Gamer, was "continually floored by all you can do". As of 4 July 2017, Wynncraft is the largest MMORPG built in Minecraft, according to Guinness World Records.
