    Services

    Ready to play right away

    Usually set up within minutes. You can bring your own worlds.

    Backup and restore

    The world is backed up daily, and every backup is kept for 30 days. You can restore earlier states yourself at any time.

    Save kept for 90 days

    After the contract ends, we keep your last save for 90 days. It is transferred when you place a new order.

    Game version

    New game versions are installed automatically as soon as no player is logged in. Switching back to the previous version is possible.

    24/7 management

    Start, stop and restart, password, world replacement and log.

    Notes

    Valheim: ten slots

    Valheim itself allows 10 concurrent players. More slots are only possible with extensions.

    Minecraft: Java Edition with plugins

    We run the Java Edition in its current version, with Paper as the server software. Plugins (.jar) are supported. They run on the server, so players do not need to install anything. Running the server requires accepting the Minecraft EULA.

    Factorio: mods

    Mods are supported, and all players need the same ones. You can set whether the factory keeps running while nobody is connected.

    Project Zomboid: Workshop mods

    Mods come from the Steam Workshop. The server downloads them itself using the Workshop IDs, and players get them through Steam. Players join via the server address, not via the Steam server list.

    Address and port

    Every server gets a fixed name following the pattern meinserver.games.glowfish.de. Custom name such as drachenhort.perfect-server.de and dedicated IP address: included with Flex XL, available as add-ons for the other tiers.

    Frequently asked questions

    How long is the commitment?
    One month. After that, the server is cancellable monthly with a notice period of one month.
    Do I have to commit to one game?
    No. You switch the game yourself in the customer portal, free of charge and as often as you like.
    What happens to my world when I switch games?
    It is kept, for every game you have played. When you switch back, the last state is available again automatically. You can download every world in the customer portal.
    What happens to my world when I cancel?
    We keep your last save for 90 days after the contract ends. If you order a server with the same game again during this time, the save can be transferred to the new server. During the contract term, you can download your world at any time in the customer portal.
    What happens to my save when I cancel?
    The last save is kept for 90 days after the contract ends and can be transferred to a new server with the same game. During the term, you can download any backup.
    How quickly is my game server online?
    Usually within minutes. The server is set up automatically and you receive the access details by email.
    Do I need to own the game?
    Yes. The server provides the game world. You buy the game itself from the publisher or on Steam.
    Can I use mods?
    Yes. With Factorio and Project Zomboid you can use your own mods, and with Minecraft, plugins run on the server. What players need to install is described in the notes for each game.
    How many slots does my server have?
    That depends on the game and the tier, from Flex S to Flex XL. The configurator on each game page shows the exact number. Valheim itself allows at most ten concurrent players.
    Are my saves backed up?
    Yes, daily. The retention period is listed for each plan.
    How do my players connect to the server?
    Every server gets a fixed name following the pattern meinserver.games.glowfish.de. Flex XL also includes a dedicated IP address and a custom name such as drachenhort.perfect-server.de. Both are available as add-ons for the other tiers.
    Where are the servers located?
    In an ISO 27001 certified data center in Germany. This ensures low latency within Germany.
    Can my players contribute to the costs?
    Yes. In the customer portal you receive a payment link that you can pass on. Players and viewers use it to pay into your credit balance by credit card, PayPal or bank transfer without registering, with a message and name or anonymously. The credit is applied to your invoices. Your name and address are not shown on the payment page. Details are available in our Help under “Sharing server costs”.
    Can a moderator manage the server without access to my data?
    Yes. You set up a separate login in the customer portal and grant exactly the permissions this person needs, for example for restart, console and backups. Invoices, account details and cancellation remain reserved for you.
    Can I switch to a higher tier later?
    Yes, you can switch at any time. The change is billed to the exact day.
