| Classic | 5s | 5m | Circular | Classic rules, inspired by CubeCraft. |
| Item-Only | 10s | 10m | Circular | Only items (no blocks): long & tough. |
| Item-Shuffle | 10s | 5m | Circular | Items replaced every 10s (9 new items). |

Info about Metrics collected
PillarPeril by default collects some data about how people use the plugin, so game modes can better be adjusted and the game can further be balanced.
This is a complete list of all data collected, besides FastStats defaults:
- Amount of games running/started
- Game modifiers most frequently used
- Average amount of players per game
If you do not want to send any of these metrics, you can set disable-faststats in the configuration to true, or follow the instructions given on first startup with FastStats.
