Experimental tier
Free game hosting may be discontinued at any time without advance notice. If server load impacts the shared hardware, this tier gets adjusted first. Use it for fun, not for anything you can't afford to lose.
One free Minecraft server. or anything else Pterodactyl supports. Palworld, Terraria, Valheim, whatever. Just don't expect enterprise-grade reliability on a free tier.
One server per account. The specs are enough for a small group of friends playing vanilla or lightly modded Minecraft. If you need more, ask. but this tier is experimental and I make no promises about uptime.
After signing up, your server is provisioned automatically. The Pterodactyl panel handles file uploads, console access, backups, and server restarts.

Free game hosting may be discontinued at any time without advance notice. If server load impacts the shared hardware, this tier gets adjusted first. Use it for fun, not for anything you can't afford to lose.
One free game server per user.
This is a shared box behind basic network protection. If your server attracts attacks, it's getting shut down without discussion. Keep a low profile.
Pterodactyl has built-in backup tools. Use them. If the server goes down and you didn't back up your world, that's on you. Account termination results in a complete wipe. no backups are retained.
