Fourteen arenas already inside
The moment the jar is copied, /play does not answer “no map configured”: fourteen games are playable the same evening.
One engine, not thirty-two plugins
Arenas, worlds, queues, teams, kits, shops, stats, HUD and rewards live in the engine; a game only writes its own rules.
Arenas you build
Spawns, beds, eggs, flags, chests and generators are placed as blocks while you build the map.
A lobby per game
Whoever leaves BedWars comes back among the BedWars signs, not into the middle of the hub.
Progression and kits
Items, armour, effects and attributes per game, and unlocking is a list of alternatives: permission, game coins, real currency or level.

What it is ShadowGames
Arenas, worlds, queues, teams, kits, shops, stats, HUD and rewards live in the engine; a game only writes its own rules. Arenas are built by placing marker blocks while you build the map.
Trentadue minigiochi normalmente sono trentadue plugin: trentadue configurazioni diverse, trentadue modi di definire un'arena, trentadue sistemi di statistiche che non si parlano, e trentadue autori da aspettare quando Minecraft cambia versione.
How to install it
- Copy the jar into the
pluginsfolder of your Paper server. - Restart. The plugin writes its own configuration.
- For the Premium features paste the code you received:
