The Lifeboat Network has a broad selection of games you can play. There is a couple of ways that you can join other games:
Recommended Method:
Follow the “Getting Started” guide by entering “play.lbsg.net” as the IP Address. Once you connect, you will be able to tap on any gamemode you like and join instantly. This is the easiest method.
More difficult Method:
Manually type each IP address into your Minecraft PE app:
We have many game types and will have more to come in the future. We hope you enjoy all games that Lifeboat has to offer!
Playing on the popular Prison Server requires you meet one of the following requirements:
1) You have a GOAT / MVP subscription.
2) You have a Prison Pass.
You can view our shop on our dedicated Lifeboat app (AppStore, or GooglePlay) or you can sign-in and buy it directly here: user.lbsg.net. Prison pass is a one time purchase of $4.99, or you can purchase GOAT / MVP and get a ton of benefits across all gamemodes on our network.
Possible problems and solutions:
Full Server
Sometimes our servers reach player capacity. If you’re unable to connect, please try “play.lbsg.net” to be connected to a server with player slots available.
<hr>
Bad Username
If your username has special characters, it can cause connection problems. Only letter, numbers, and underscores are allowed.
<hr>
Internet Connection
You must be connected to Wi-Fi network in order to play on Minecraft Pocket Edition servers. You may also play on Cellular data.
Most public schools and some libraries will block non-web traffic, so you can’t play there. Stay on task, and play when you get home.
If you’re having lots of lag or disconnecting issues, try moving closer to your Wi-Fi router. The more bars you are getting, the better.

Version differences
We always update our servers to the latest version of Minecraft Pocket Edition as soon as possible. This is constantly changing, so check back.
Please use this page to reset your password: http://data.lbsg.net/forgot.php. This will send you a link to the email address that you used when you registered your account. If you have any issues with this, please contact our support team to receive a prompt response.
We recommend strong secure passwords that are also easy to remember. Do not use your username in the password, or any other pattern that may be easy for players to guess. You want your password to be safe, do not use the same password for multiple things. (e.g. Lifeboat, Email, Facebook etc.)
If you entered the wrong email when you registered, then sorry, there is simply nothing we can do.
You can become a donor today by becoming a subscriber to the Lifeboat VIP, MVP or GOAT Ranks to support the network, and to receive some awesome bonuses. Ranks are available as in-app purchases, and can also be purchased via Paypal here. VIP’s, MVP’s and GOAT’s get advantages centered around joining, team selection, kit selection, pets, flying in lobbies, exciting particle effects, and so much more.
You can read more here on our Subscriptions page.
Sometimes we have technical difficulties that prevent VIP or other features from working, and these are usually resolved quickly with no action on your part. But, if you need to restore a purchase, please see our VIP Repair page.
Just connect to any our gamemodes and the rank will allow you to have additional pets, particle effects, morphs (transform into mobs), toys, priority match joining, ability to fly in lobby, no chat cool-down, no join cool-down, an awesome tag, and eSports team priority. You will see a [GOAT], [MVP], or [VIP+] tag if your VIP is active in your current gamemode. If you believe you have paid for VIP but are not seeing your special tag or benefits, contact our support team for help.
Read more about ranks and their advantages on our Subscriptions page.
We are continuously making improvements to our anti-cheats software to make the playing experience hacker-free. A win by cheating is no win at all!
Report a hacker by using this command in-game:
/hacker <playername>
You do not need to type the complete playername.
If our anti-hack determines that this is probably a valid report, we will enter this into our database. We keep a closer eye on players that receive hacking reports. But, the effect is limited, so if there is ever a false report it will not completely change the game-play experience of a wrongly accused player. Reports are cumulative, and all are forgotten after six weeks.
Most of the bugs are Minecraft Pocket Edition’s own issues, and are outside of our control. Others are in software that we do not supply, but we need to run the system. Some are our fault, and some are not. We keep working to eliminate bugs, but we have limited time and resources–so some issues might not be high-priority. If you find a bug please fill out a bug report form.
Please contact us via our support page.
To build the best Minecraft server network, we need the best, most ethical, hardest working individuals we can find. Could that be you? We are always looking for top talent.
Visit our Jobs page to view the positions. You may also visit our Volunteers page. Hopefully a position suits you.
We do not allow rank transfers. Our new MVP and GOAT subscriptions are on a month-month basis. If you’d like to transfer your rank, please cancel your current subscription and start a new subscription with the other account that you want the rank associated with.
You must have a minimum of 2,000 subscribers before being eligible to receive a YouTube rank next to your username on our servers. Please use the YouTube Rank application page here: http://lbsg.net/youtube-rank/. Please be patient while your application is reviewed by our support representatives.

No, do not contact Mojang for support issues. You need to contact Lifeboat Support.
Sorry, no. But the good news is we will not take your username away from you, either.
Nice when the armor takes the hit instead of you taking damage. The defense starts with a cap, chestplate, pants, boots, and an axe that doubles as a fashion accessory.
VIP lets you pick Red, Blue, or Green teams, making it much easier to be grouped with your friends.
Your chance to emulate the most feared and reviled of all the Mobs. Creeper gets 1 throwable TNT every 90 seconds. This could get you just the bad reputation you were looking for.
Loot chests and bridge across the void in this tense game-type. Last player standing wins!
Comes with a pickaxe. He is able to squeeze a little more out of every chest that is not empty. How does he do it? Experience.
