4 GB RAM. Paper-optimized. No credit card. Desert Forge's free tier is built to impress, not to frustrate.
We built the free tier to be genuinely usable — not a demo, not a trap.
Enough for a solid Paper server with a handful of players. Way above the typical free host.
Servers run on Paper with Desert Forge's tuned defaults. Fast startup, lower lag, better TPS out of the box.
Room for a real survival world. Enough to explore, build, and grow without hitting a wall right away.
Earn credits daily and spend them on real upgrades — more RAM, more storage, idle keepalive, and more.
Your world stays safe for 14 days after inactivity. Extend it with credits if you need a longer break.
Spend credits for temporary boosts or convert to a paid plan when you're ready for full control.
The free tier is real hosting. Paid plans are for teams that need more.
