Five star game host rating

“I am father to a 10 year old who loves tech and especially Minecraft, hosting a server where he can apply custom mods and create with his friends. He knows way more than me, but sometimes we’ve run into issues understanding the service - and the Empower team has been great! Super responsive and clear in email and chat. Patient and helpful. It keeps us engaged and coming back because we can learn and expand with them (rather than getting frustrated and losing interest). Recommend!!!”
