In its own words
South Africa's FIRST Rust server with AI admins - built for low ping and zero cheaters (every player is reviewed from telemetry + real footage). TESTING PHASE: we change settings every wipe to find the best server for SA. Play the week, then tell us what to change: rustaroo.com/community REAL CASH: R5-R200 Rustaroo Rand notes drop from barrels. At wipe the richest wallet is paid out for real (up to R1000). Die = drop 15%, lose your main TC = lose it all. Ties: kill cam votes, then the R5 coin toss. Every kill becomes a KILL CAM (six angles + live commentary) at rustaroo.com 3x gather, crafting, smelting WIPES: Thursdays 21:00 SAST (blueprints on the first Thursday, with Facepunch's update)
