'''Civcraft''' was a [[mainline]] [[Civ]] server run by [[ttk2]]. It was the first mainline server and is widely considered the pioneer of the Civ genre. Civcraft ran from March 24, 2012 to October 1, 2016 over three iterations. Its mainline successor was [[Devoted 3.0]].
Civcraft was the first server to use mechanics and plugins that have since become core to Civ, including [[Citadel]], [[Factory|Factories]], [[Bastions]], [[Prison Pearl]], [[Snitch]]es, [[Realistic Biomes]], and [[NameLayer]]<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/wiki/index#wiki_plugins</ref>. Many of its design decisions and ideas remain present in mainline servers to this day.
As of August 2023, many of the released map backups for CivCraft 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 have been uploaded to the Internet Archive.<ref>https://archive.org/details/civcraftarchive_202308</ref>▼
Its goal was to be "an experiment for communities, political ideologies, debate and discussion. The backstory [was] based on history, not fiction. Civcraft [was] forming a new direction for game-play, not just about surviving the elements, but about surviving each other, where players can work together to create and shape civilization or to watch it crumble. A world open to any idea, manifesto or philosophy, created by the players."<ref name=":1">https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/</ref> Civcraft hoped "to push Minecraft to its fullest potential in order to foster discussion, experimentation and community building."<ref name=":1" />▼

A DDOS around March 26 2013 caused the admin team to struggle to set up a new, appropriate backup server.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/1b0q6q/from_the_looks_of_things_civcraft_is_being_ddosed/</ref> A redditor offered a server that was well suited, and the admin team took to this opportunity. On April 26, ttk2 announced that the backup server owner, who turned out to be the player Hamster238, had abused his access to the server backups, which contained everything from the map saves down to uncensored server logs, including the locations of all hidden wealth, player activities and associations, and so on.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/1d6gt0/well_a_disaster_has_occurred_and_it_seems_i_only/</ref> As a result, the admins made the difficult decision to reset the map.
