Malevolent Gaming MultiverseTerms of Service

The agreement behind every world

One Malevolent Gaming account gets you into all of them, and this is what you agree to when you make it. Six documents: the account terms, plus one per live world.

Last updated4 April 2026

Fan-run, non-commercialAges 13+Donations never buy powerProvided as-is
At a glance

Six things worth knowing

A plain-English summary so you know what you are agreeing to. It is a summary, not the agreement — the documents below are the terms that apply.

Rule one

This is a fan project

Every world here is fan-run, non-commercial and unaffiliated with the studios that made these games. The trademarks and the copyrights stay with their owners. We are hobbyists keeping old worlds alive.

Rule two

One account, and it is yours

Keep your password to yourself. Do not share, sell, trade or hand over an account — and everything done with your account is treated as done by you.

Rule three

Thirteen and over

You must be at least 13, or older if your country sets a higher bar, and not barred by local law from using a fan-run server.

Rule four

Donations buy hosting, not power

Donations are voluntary and keep the lights on. They never buy in-game advantage, immunity from the rules or a refund — and donors are moderated exactly like everyone else.

Rule five

Staff decisions are final

Staff can warn, suspend, ban, and adjust characters, items or progression to keep a world fair. You can appeal; a reversal is not guaranteed.

Rule six

Everything is provided as-is

No uptime promise, no guarantee your progress survives, and any world can change or close. Play these servers because you love them, not because you are owed something.

The fan disclaimer

Whose worlds these are

Not affiliated. Not endorsed. Not for sale.

Malevolent Gaming and the Malevolent Multiverse are not affiliated with, endorsed by or associated with any of the companies below, nor with any current or former owner of these games. All trademarks, copyrights and intellectual property remain the property of their respective owners. These servers exist for educational, hobbyist and nostalgic purposes and are run by volunteers.
