Writing for Kotaku Australia, Luke Plunkett praised Wynncraft's map and called the server "a full and proper MMO".[6] Carl Velasco of Tech Times said that the server is "nuts" and "a stunning example of what can be created using Minecraft's own sandbox engine".[2] Austin Wood, writing for PC Gamer, was "continually floored by all you can do".[4] Ewan Moore of UNILAD stated that the server is representative of Minecraft's expansive scope.
