Night 3 of 7 · doors still open

The night shift
never ended.

FNAFCraft is a survival server built inside a pizzeria that should have closed years ago. Claim a table, build a base behind the arcade, and survive the weekly Night Shift — a horror-themed event night where the lights go out on purpose.

FILE 01 — the premises

A pizzeria with a working game server.

The build is a full pizzeria: dining hall, show stage, kitchen, arcade and a basement nobody has finished mapping. Around it the world opens into a normal survival map — forests, mines, a lake that reflects too much at night.

The server runs the latest stable Minecraft Java version (1.20.x). Gameplay is close to vanilla with cozy quality-of-life plugins and optional client-side mods via the FNAFClient. Nothing on the server requires the client to play.

  • Full pizzeria spawn with a working stage and arcade
  • Land claims, hourly backups, no griefing
  • Horror nights are opt-in — you're never jumpscared in your base
  • Player shops, player events, player-run staff team

FILE 02 — shift log

Five nights. Pick your poison.

Each night unlocks a different corner of the server. You can skip straight to the one you care about — but Night 5 is where the good loot lives.

Night 01

Learn the floor plan

Spawn tour, /rules, a starter kit and a plot claim. Nothing hunts you on night one — this is the friendly shift.

Tutorial · always available
Night 02

Build behind the arcade

Land claims, chest locks and workshop plots. The basement is dark, cheap and technically outside the claim radius. People build there anyway.

Building · claims active
Night 03

Pizza, profit, paperwork

A player-run economy: dough, cheese, coal ovens and a delivery route that pays better at night. Best pizza wins a neon sign on the wall.

Economy · player shops
Night 04

The vents

Opt-in PvP arena in the maintenance tunnels. Consent only — outside the arena nobody can touch you or your base, ever.

Arena · opt-in PvP
Night 05

They're awake

Friday Night Shift: lights cut, custom mobs spawn in the halls, and the whole server has to reach the lake before 6 AM. Cosmetic rewards, no lost items.

Event · Fri 21:00 CET
Night 06

Overtime

Season finale every few months: a full-server boss fight, a rebuild of the stage and a purge of nothing — your builds stay. Bring friends.

FILE 04 — client terminal

Install the client. Or don't.

Shaders, a minimap, a shop browser and a one-click join button in a small Windows installer. Vanilla 1.20.x joins the same world — the client just makes the dark look better.

FILE 05 — clocking in

Three steps to your first shift.

  1. 01

    Install the client

    Download the Windows installer above. It bundles Java, the shader presets and a one-click join. Vanilla works identically if you'd rather not.

  2. 02

    Add the server

    Multiplayer → Add Server → fnafcraft.online. No port, no whitelist, no application form.

  3. 03

    Clock in

    Read /rules, grab a starter kit, claim a plot with /claim and check /events for the next Night Shift.

FILE 06 — incident reports

Questions, answered.

Still lost? Type /help in game. A night guard is usually awake.

Do I need the FNAFClient?

No. Claims, shops, events and the whole map run on vanilla 1.20.x. The client adds shaders, a minimap and one-click join for people who want the pizzeria to look properly unlit.

Is it actually scary, or just themed?

Themed first, scary when you ask for it. Horror nights are events you opt into — there are no jumpscares, screams or sound blasts in your base. Lights, fog and custom mobs are part of Friday events and you're told where they spawn.

Is it pay-to-win?

Never. Ranks are cosmetic — a name colour, a hat, a pet animatronic that follows you around. No kits, no loot boxes, no "donate to fly".

Which version?

The server runs the latest stable Minecraft Java version (1.20.x). Gameplay is close to vanilla with cozy quality-of-life plugins, and optional client-side mods ship inside the FNAFClient.

Can I protect my builds?

Yes. /claim protects your plot, chests and animals, and staff restore griefed builds from hourly backups. The basement is claimable too — just find an empty corner and light it first.

Is this an official FNAF server?

No. FNAFCraft is a fan project. Not affiliated with Scott Cawthon, Steel Wool Studios, Mojang Studios or Microsoft. The characters on the stage are original silhouettes, not ripped assets.

06:00 AM approaching

The doors open at dusk.

54 players online, 150 slots and one stage that hasn't been cleaned since 1987. Your shift starts whenever you're ready.
