First Five Minutes

Your path into the empire

You spawn in Rome with a pickaxe and a Sarcina. Four steps stand between you and your first rank-up.

01

Join the realm

Add play.imperiummc.net in multiplayer, or follow the Bedrock guide for phones and consoles.

02

Mine & fill your Sarcina

Type /mines, pick Mine I, and hold left-click. Blocks fly straight into your backpack.

03

Sell with /sellall

Convert your blocks to Denarius — the green coin you spend to rank up the cursus honorum.

Rank up & repeat

Type /rankup to climb. Higher ranks unlock richer mines, better enchants, and new titles.
