# Overview

The Prison Server is an immersive play-to-win game mode on the ProtectorsCraft Network, where you’ll embark on a journey to earn money, rank up, and eventually conquer the prestige system. Mine your way through **A-Z Ranks**, team up with others to form **Gangs**, compete in events like **KOTH (King of the Hill)**, and discover powerful gear through **Crates**, **Cosmetics**, and **Custom Enchantments**. Our Prison experience combines classic mining progression with modern features like daily rewards, skill leveling, gang wars, and more.

**Some key features of the Prison experience:**

* **Rankup & Prestige**: Progress from A-Z ranks and then move into Prestiges for endgame challenges.
* **Mines & Warps**: Teleport to specialized mines using `/mines` with escalating sell prices.
* **Custom Pickaxe**: Receive a personalized unbreakable pickaxe you can enchant and level up.
* **Cells**: Create your own personal space to build, store items, and invite friends using the `/cell` command.
* **Custom Enchantments**: Unlock special pickaxe enchantments using tokens to boost your mining output, luck, and more.
* **Gangs**: Create or join a gang to collaborate, fight together, and dominate the leaderboards.
* **Economy & Auction House**: Sell your resources in the shop or list them on `/auction` to earn profit.
* **PvP Arenas**: Prove yourself in PvP combat and King-of-the-Hill events to win prizes
* **Crates & Rewards**: Open keys at the crates area for unique upgrades, bombs, cosmetics, and more.
* **Skill System**: Level up various skills to gain special buffs or income boosters.
* **AFK Pond**: Earn coins and crate keys just by being AFK in the pond at spawn.

### Getting Started

1. Mine blocks in the starter mine A with your pickaxe to earn money using `/sell all`
2. Sell mined resources using `/sell all`, in the `/shop`, or trade with others in the `/auction` to rank up to access better mines with `/rankup`
3. Create your own cell using `/cell create` to have a personal space for building and storing items
4. Participate in `/koth` PvP events, open `/crates`, level up your pickaxe, and prestige for further perks

### Progression

* Use `/ranks` to view rank costs and track your progression
* Unlock new mines, pickaxe enchants, PvP abilities, and upgrades as you rank up
* Prestige at Rank Z to reset and gain major boosts, then climb the ranks again
* Grow your wealth and rise to the top of the global `/baltop` leaderboard
