New to Groveheart?

Getting Started

Everything you need for your first days: from joining the server to getting the keys to your own house.

Your quest log

Eight steps to a home

Follow them in order. If you get stuck, just ask in your ticket.

  1. STEP 01

    Join CivMC

    Add the server play.civmc.net to Minecraft and log in. You spawn somewhere random in the world, so don't wander off too far yet.

  2. STEP 02

    Join our Discord

    Everything in Groveheart is organised on our Discord server. Have a look at #rules and #information first.

  3. STEP 03

    Open a ticket in #citizenship

    In #citizenship you can open a ticket. Choose New / Primary Citizenship if you want to live here, or GroveFriend if you are a friend or ally. Answer a few short questions and a team member will reply in your ticket.

  4. STEP 04

    Get to Groveheart

    New players get one free teleport. Arrange it in your ticket and teleport straight to a Groveheart contact. Or make the trip yourself to the railway station at -5914 67 5578

  5. STEP 05

    Take the tour

    A guide, usually one of our Freemen, shows you around: the station, the market, the farms and where everything is.

  6. STEP 06

    Move in

    You get your own small apartment from day one, so you have a safe place for your things right away.

  7. STEP 07

    Citizen test

    After about 1–2 weeks of play, a team member reaches out in your ticket to take the citizen test with you.

  8. STEP 08

    Your own house

    Pass the test and you are assigned a ready-built house, which you can usually choose yourself. Welcome home.

The short version

House rules

  • No harming, stealing, scamming or kidnapping, on the server or in our Discords.
  • Only build, dig or change land at your own home or shop. Everything else needs permission first.
  • Don't enter or loot property that isn't yours.
  • No harassment, threats or anti-social behaviour.
  • Military and defence areas are off limits unless you are allowed there.

The full rules are in the Groveheart Charter.

Law of the Woods

Every tree in Groveheart is protected. Building, digging or clearing anywhere outside your own home or shop needs permission from the King or one of his appointees, and that includes trees.

Groveheart Charter, Article III
