Java 25. Spigot is not supported: all six use the Paper API.
For server admins
Documentation
What you need before installing and after: requirements, steps, the commands of all six plugins, what they add to each other, the questions that always come up. The home page tells the story; this page explains.
Requirements
English and Italian
Chosen with language in the config.yml of each one. Texts live in lang/: a new language is a new file.
About 1.7 ms per tick
Measured with 50 bots on a laptop, all six together, on a 50 ms tick. Every release goes through the test bench before it ships.
Stay yours
Backrooms builds its own worlds (bkrms_). The others work in your worlds and step back inside WorldGuard regions (on 26.3 WorldGuard needs WorldEdit 7.4.6 or newer). Back up before installing, as always.
Install
The same for all six. One jar per plugin, no dependencies between them: they recognize each other when they are there.
- Download the jarFrom Modrinth or Hangar. One file per plugin.
- Put it in pluginsCopy it into the
pluginsfolder of a Paper & Purpur 26.2-3 server. - RestartA full restart, not
/reload: Paper plugins do not survive a reload. - Choose the languageSet
language: enoritin itsconfig.yml, then restart or use the reload command.
Coming soon on Modrinth and Hangar: until the pages are ready, ask for the jar on the Discord or write to me.
Six plugins, one server
Each one runs on its own. Installed together they know about each other: a death in a siege can end in the Backrooms, and a god can pull you out.
Backrooms
Procedural horror levels
12 levels · Limbo, Raid · /bckr
Procedural levels with their own generators, a fear director that waits until you look, a hunter, sanity and objectives with sound hints. With Siege: the Limbo and the Raid.
Gods
Altars, cults and missions
Altars, cults · Missions, factions · /gods
A game inside the game: altars and sacred land, a hierarchy with a Pope and cardinals, missions with time to prepare, miracles, punishments with caps, factions, crusades and [KEY] locks. The in-game book has 137 pages.
Siege
Monsters at the door
Downed, revive · Digging mobs · /siege
When you die you stay down, with your items in a chest beside you: a teammate can raise you, an enemy can finish you. Zombies chew through basic blocks and place their own, monsters open doors, passive mobs strike back.
MMS
Minecraft Mining System
Cave-ins, gas · Air, darkness · /mms
Darkness below the second level, air that runs out, wide tunnels that cave in unless you prop them, water and gas pockets, better armed monsters at depth, and the Buried. MMS tells a mine from a house, so your cellar stays a cellar.
Weyland
Mob levels and the truce
Levels 1 to 38 · Truce · /wy
Levels by depth in the Overworld and by distance in the Nether and the End, stats, equipment, drops and experience that scale, nameplates only for who looks at the mob, and a truce after a death on the surface.
Magic
Chest sorting
Auto-sort · Storage room · /tidy
Auto-sort on closing, only on chests that are yours. /tidy force for the chest you look at, /tidy inventory for your backpack, /tidy storage for every chest around you, split by category with a colored sign on each.
Commands, permissions and configuration
Every plugin explains itself in game. The Book of the God alone has 137 pages, with clickable chapters. Here they all are, plugin by plugin.

Alone or together
Drop one in
Magic sorts chests the moment they close. Nothing else needed.
Pair two
Weyland reads the rock above your head through MMS: deeper caves, stronger mobs, thinner air.
Run all six
Fall in a siege one time too many and the floor opens onto the Backrooms. Your god may answer.
Compose your server
Pick the plugins you would install. The list shows what they do together.
- The Limbo (Siege + Backrooms): die downed one time too many and you may wake up in the Backrooms, with a level to escape.
- The Raid (Siege + Backrooms): a soul soil portal leads to an extraction match: loot, red doors, 35 minutes. It needs Siege 1.16 or later.
- Implore your god (Siege + Backrooms + Gods): from the Limbo, once per visit: the god sets a penance, and when it is done you are out.
- Levels by real depth (MMS + Weyland): MMS measures the rock above your head, so a cave inside a mountain is as dangerous as one far below.
- Safe ground (Gods + MMS): under sacred lands and faction homes with a lit hearth there is no darkness, stale air or Buried. Cave-ins, gas and floods still happen.
- Chests that are yours (Gods + Magic): Magic reads the locks, cults and factions of Gods to know whose chest it is. Without Gods it sorts only inventory and ender chest.
- The truce knows (Siege + Weyland): die downed after a monster attack and Weyland still grants its truce: weaker monsters around you for a while.
- A god that saves you (Siege + Gods): while you lie downed, your god can still raise you, not only your teammates.
- Pick two or more: these plugins work alone too, but here you see what they add to each other.
Questions
Are they really free?
Yes. Download, install, play: no payment, no account, no ads. The source code is not public. What you can do with them: see the terms of use.
Which server do I need?
Paper & Purpur 26.2-3 with Java 25. Spigot is not supported: Backrooms is a Paper plugin, and all six use the Paper API.
Can I install just one?
Yes. Each plugin runs alone. Installed together they talk to each other, and the list above shows what changes.
Which languages?
English and Italian, chosen with language in each config.yml. Texts live in the lang folder, so a new language is a new file.
Will they touch my world?
Backrooms builds its own worlds, all named bkrms_. The others work in your worlds and step back inside WorldGuard regions. Make a backup before installing anything, as always.
Do they cost server time?
Every release is measured on a bench of bots before it ships. With 50 bots playing on a laptop, all the plugins together took about 1.7 ms of each 50 ms tick.
Can I try them before installing?
Yes. Write to me and I will give you access to the development server, where everything is already running.
Try them first
Write to me and I will send you the address of the development server, with all six plugins running.
