Great Hoodoos

The Great Hoodoos were a group of enormous earthen pillars and floating islands which collectively formed the most prominent topological feature in the Frontierlands, and served as the unofficial symbol of the original SpongeCraft Frontiers. As the default spawn point is situated within the Hoodoo House atop the rocks, the formations were the first point of literal dives into the server for all players.

Despite the loss of the Frontierlands map with the January 2024 outage of SCF, and its subsequent replacement with Overlandia, the Great Hoodoos still remained in the branding of SpongeCraft Frontiers, as one formation appeared in the background of the icon that appeared in the game's server list.

Points of Interest

• Hoodoo House - A two-story house built upon one of the pillars, the second floor of which contained the main spawn point for the Frontierlands. Derived from the design of the Royals boat-house that HawkbitAlpha had created in SpongeCraft Classic, it featured a dining room/kitchen on its ground floor along with a glass-enclosed wrap-around deck. The front side of the deck, as well as its glass enclosure, was connected to a wooden bridge built across a gap between three pillars, from which players would perform a "Leap of Faith" to ground level.
• The Landing - The touchdown area for the Leap of Faith, consisting of a pool of water and a connected commons house. The Landing Commons sported a pair of large public chests, an Ender Chest, a set of furnaces, and a group of beds in an underground nook known as the Swedish Room. From here, players could properly enter the world by exiting through the Landing's gates. The Pioneer Central Railway connected the front gate of the Landing to Littleroot Village and Centralia.
