'''Vintage Civ''' is a Civ server on [[Vintage Story]] that released on the 2nd of January 2022.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/VintageStory/comments/ruif1f/vintage_civ_the_first_official_beta_release_of_a/</ref> Along with the intense hyper-realism of vanilla Vintage Story, Vintage Civ uses a variety of new plugins, most notably the Shackle Gear <ref>SimpleBastard (February 3 2022) [https://discord.com/channels/927062370352762941/927070837947916348/938834740784541706 Shackle Gear Shackle Gear is a prison system developed for Vintage Story and Abject Poverty Craft by Novocain. Players can make a “Shackle Gear” item (can be searched in the handbook) that allows them to imprison or ‘shackle’ another player. When a player is shackled their build/break, and pvp]</ref>. Previously used on [[AbjectPovertyCraft]], the Shackle Gear works similarly to [[Prison Pearl]] as a means for players to self-police themselves, a notable "rule" of the Civ genre, an “anarchistic gaming experiments” <ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/VintageStory/comments/ruif1f/vintage_civ_the_first_official_beta_release_of_a/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3</ref>. Other features include [[Citadel]] built into the VS base game as plumb-and-square Reinforcement, to make up for absence of vanilla Vintage Story land claiming which prevents players from interacting, placing, or destroying blocks inside the land claim (at no cost whatsoever, unlike Reinforcement). Another notable difference to vanilla VS is the lack of other player icons in the map, including your own. This makes the addition of the client-side mod [https://mods.vintagestory.at/vshud VSHUD] a necessity to many Vciv players for waypointing and navigation purposes. A certain feature coming from Vanilla VS allows players to be able to see other ingame player nametags within a certain distance, making underground or secluded living difficult.

Another VS counterpart to Minecraft Civ is the inclusion of the Snitches mod, which comes from, well, [[Snitches]]<ref>https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Zm6EUunXyym0NpvCV7uTeNPSBCBoQGL2/view</ref>.
