Survival Towny Prison Roleplay PVP PVE Factions
In MCLabs, you choose to be a CHEMIST or a COP. Chemists grow crops to turn them into illegal CHEMS and COMPOUNDS to sell. Cops try to arrest chemists and take the chems for themselves. Use money from selling chems to rank up, earning new perks and abilities to build your chem empire towards Chem Lord status, or to ascend the police ranks towards Operator status. MCLabs has been running for over 10 years (formerly known as MC-Drugs/MCDrugs) and is home to unique mechanics not seen on any other server. Along with the main Chems gamemode, we have Creative, KitPvP, Parkour, and a unique PvE experience: The Pit.
