One Platform. Built by Us.
Game Compatibility
Every DustBowl server runs on Warden — the game-server control plane we designed and built ourselves. No licensed third-party panel, no bolted-together tools. One dashboard, one team, tuned for the games our community actually plays.

Why Warden
What every server gets, by default
We didn't license a panel and slap our logo on it. We built the whole thing — which means every feature below ships on every plan, for every supported game.
Instant Provisioning
Warden spins your container up automatically the moment your order clears — no manual build ticket, no technician queue. Pick a game, check out, and it's provisioned.
Full Web Control Panel
Start, stop, restart, and monitor your server from one browser-based dashboard. No downloads, no SSH required, no separate login for a different piece of software.
Live Console + File Manager
Watch your server's log output stream in real time, and edit configs, worlds, and mod files directly in the browser — no separate FTP client to configure.
Mod & Plugin Support
Every server runs in its own isolated container, so installing Forge, Fabric, Paper plugins, or Workshop mods doesn't touch anyone else's world — or anyone else's uptime.
Per-Game Tuning
Every supported title has its own server profile — startup flags, config defaults, and resource behavior tuned for that specific game, not a generic one-size-fits-all template.
Built In-House
Warden is our own software, written and maintained by our own team. When a game needs a fix or a new title needs support, we ship it ourselves — we don't wait on someone else's roadmap.
From Order to Online
No manual setup, no waiting on a technician
Pick Your Game
Browse the catalog and confirm your title is supported. Not sure? Ask us — chances are it already is.
Choose Your Plan
Pick from shared, private, or dedicated hosting based on your community's needs.
Deploy & Play
Warden provisions your server automatically. Grab your connect details from the dashboard and go.
The Catalog
Every game we support, in one place
Competitive shooters, survival sandboxes, voice chat, and everything between — same dashboard, same live console, same team behind every title.
Beyond the Catalog
Don't See Your Game? We Still Got You.
Most hosts stop at the catalog. We go further. If your game is obscure, old, modded, or just won't cooperate — that's exactly what we're here for.
Modernize an Old Game
Running a game from 2009 that crashes on modern Linux kernels? We diagnose compatibility issues, update startup configs, patch broken dependencies, and get legacy titles running reliably in a Warden container — so your community doesn't have to give up their favorite game.
Custom Server Builds
Found a niche title with no matching profile in our catalog? We build, debug, and tune a custom Warden server profile from scratch — environment variables, startup sequences, port mappings, and all — until it's production-ready.
Custom Mods & Modpacks
Want a heavily modded Minecraft server, a custom Valheim modpack, or a game-mode-specific ARK setup? We configure mod loaders (Forge, Fabric, BepInEx), curate modpack lists, and handle dependency conflicts so mods stay working.
Tell us what you're trying to run.
Seriously — submit a support ticket with the game name, what you've tried, and what's broken. We've solved weirder problems than yours, and we're happy to take a look. No commitment required.
FAQ
Questions, answered
The things people ask us most about game support, straight up.
What platform do you use to host game servers?
We run Warden, our own in-house game-server control plane. We built and maintain it ourselves — it's not a licensed third-party panel — so every server gets a live console, file manager, and one-click controls from the same dashboard.
How many games do you support?
We currently support 5 games across FPS, survival, sandbox, strategy, and more — with new titles added regularly. Browse the full catalog on our game servers page to check yours.
Can I request a game that's not in the catalog?
Yes. Submit a support ticket with the game name and any details on what you're trying to run. If there's demand and it's technically feasible in a Warden container, we'll build a server profile for it — no commitment required to ask.
Do you support modded servers?
Yes. Every server runs in its own isolated container, so installing Forge, Fabric, Paper plugins, BepInEx, or Steam Workshop mods is fully supported and won't affect anyone else's server.
Is Warden an extra cost on top of hosting?
No. The control panel, live console, file manager, and provisioning are all included with every plan — there's no separate license fee or add-on for the platform itself.
Where are your servers physically hosted?
We're based in Hickory, North Carolina, and run on real hardware from our East Coast home base — one datacenter, one team that actually maintains it, not a reseller passing you between support desks.
DustBowl.Games
Built for players who
give a damn.
For over a decade we've been running the kind of servers we always wanted to play on — whitelist-only, custom content, actively moderated, and backed by US-based support from people who actually know the games.
