Getting started
Your first ten minutes on Prism - from the lobby to your own shard.
Welcome to Prism! This page gets you from "just joined" to "playing" in a few minutes.
Join the server
Add the server prismp.net (Java 1.21+, Bedrock port 19132) and accept the resource pack. The pack brings the custom menus, the crates, the furniture and the 3D signs in the lobby. Without it the server still works, but it looks much plainer.
The lobby
You arrive in the lobby. A short tutorial shows the basic commands in ten small steps (/tutorial skip turns it off, /tutorial start brings it back). Everything in the lobby is a place you can walk to or warp to with /warps.
Tip: Talk to the figures. A click opens a conversation and an answer button; sneak + click does their job straight away.
Your first goal: a shard
Talk to the Paladin at the gate, or type /gate. Pick Your Shard: a portal rises just for you, and on the other side waits one magic block floating in the void. Break it - it comes back, a little different every time. Little by little it becomes an island, and the island becomes your world. Read more in Your Shard.
Follow the Path
/quest shows the Path - the story of Prism in chapters. Each chapter asks for one thing (claim your shard, earn your first wages, step into the Wilds...) and pays you for it. It is the best way to learn the server. See The Path.
Earn money
- Take a job with
/jobs- you get paid while you mine, chop, farm, fish or fight. See Jobs. - Sell what you collect with
/sell. - Later, buy a machine that works while you are away. See Machines.
