Ive had no issues with any aspect of the server, setting everything up was a breeze and adding passwords and mods was very fast and easy. Thanks will be a customer again and will recommend this ARK server hosting.
Matteo Pes
The server overall is great. It was very simple to setup and start, very easy to load mods and modify almost anything for the game experience. The dedicated resources (RAM, CPU and Disk Space) are more than enough for running it smoothly without any problem. It takes a little bit to load up (around 10 minutes) if you load a lot of mods, but you can let it go for days without restarting and have no troubles at all
Miles Perry
The server runs great and have had no issues, the server manager is easy to figure out and adjust settings as needed. Don't let ScalaCubes simply aesthetic turn you away because this is definitely a good affordable ARK hosting service with quality servers

Ark: Survival Evolved is a multiplayer survival game with a focus on action and combat. To make your own server you have to buy an ARK server hosting. It was developed by Studio Wildcard, in collaboration with Instinct Games, Efecto Studios, and Virtual Basement. It was released as an early access title in 2015, and then had a full release at the end of the summer, 2017.
Many people compare ARK to a more graphically rewarding version of Minecraft. The gameplay revolves around scavenging food, collecting materials, constructing shelters and building weapons. All of which can be done in cooperation with another player, or as part of an overall state of conflict.
ARK begins with the player being stranded on an island named ARK. Naked, cold and with no food, the player has to try and survive. You must use your skill and hunter’s cunning to gather resources, tame creatures and ride them, or simply kill, skin and eat the more dangerous ones. Farming is a big thing in ARK, and you will need to research your farming and crafting skills to go on surviving in this harsh environment.
You are free to go it solo, do your own thing and survive on your stealth and ability to stay hidden. You can also team up with other players to construct large shelters, farm large crops, and to combine your talents to help you survive. Of course, the island of ARK is not a safe place to live. Other players can team up or hunt you solo. Steal your crops, resources and equipment, and tear down your shelters before killing you and your friends. Do you have what it takes to survive the Island of ARK?
