Is it free to play on HG?YES! For sure!! We only hope that you will see how special HG is and want to have it available for your gamers and others, thus helping to support its costs through donations. Our family, like many homeschoolers are living on one income and cannot allocate too much of our personal funds to keep HG up. We volunteer our a lot of our time to maintaining each server, adding new elements and builds, we also try to canvas homeschool social media groups to bring in more gamers, and we monitor the servers to help keep it safe and running smoothly. For donations we try to gift your family with certain elements they can use in game depending on the 'rank' amount donated. This is not a guarantee but we do try to show our appreciation through special rank titles, gadgets, games, and tools. Donations are not refundable if your family decides to stop playing on HG or feel the 'gifts' are not worth the amount. It's a donation to help keep HG up and running for those who love it here and those to join in the future. We also do something Very rare for a Minecraft server. One donation covers the whole family. Therefore if you have two gamers and donate $20 - that rank will apply to both of your gamers! As a large family ourselves; we know how tough it can be to afford individual memberships on a tight budget. When our kids were smaller they would play Mathblasters and other such educational online games. It can get really expensive if you have several kids playing the same game. We get that!!

Can we play on HG through Playstation|Xbox|App|Tablet etc?HG can only be played at this time on Java Edition Minecraft. This is purchased and downloaded on your Computer (check to make sure it can support MC). This is not Windows 10 or Bedrock Edition Minecraft. We use to offer an HG Realm for Mobile/Console Gamers but one cannot install protections to ensure that cheating, stealing, griefing, and bullying cannot occur. Since HG was established to give HGers a safe place to Minecraft together without those things; we only offer Java edition Servers at this time. Not sure how to get Minecraft Java setup on your PC/Mac? Message us and we will help you through the process.

Can we join if we are not Homeschoolers?If your child(ren) school at home or on the road, you are welcome to Join. Whatever you call your 'home' education, you are welcome to Join. Even students who are schooling at home virtually, remotely, through online-learning schools such as Connections Academy etc, you are also welcome. As this is a Private Network of Servers rather than a Public one; we want our members to have education-at-home as the common thread. We are a homeschooling family and see the importance of having such a place for other families to connect, learn, and have fun together playing Minecraft. In the past we have let our members 'grandfather' in close family & friends who were not schooled at home. They rarely stayed long and often abused the server rules. While we are still open-minded about close family members joining (who are not homeschooled); Your gamer is responsible for providing & explaining to them the HG Rules. Failure to follow the rules results in a swift ban (depending on severity).
-
How do I join the HG Discord?Once your application to join has been approved and we have see you play on HG; We can send you the link in-game to join our Discord. HG Discord is a great way to know when there is maintenance on a server, events happening, news, and other information regarding the Network. Your gamer can also chat with fellow members even when they are not on the server. This too is monitored and all HG rules apply. There is also voice chat and games.
-
Can parents join and play too?Yes Please!! We highly encourage parents of homeschoolers/unschoolers to come and play along side them! Let them share this world with you and make memories they will cherish their entire lives! It's a safe place for parents too! Provide your gamertags on the application to be approved.
