Garry's Mod is a physics sandbox. There aren't any predefined aims or goals. We give you the tools and leave you to play.
Host it here
≈ $10/mo
playing ~12 h/week on the metered plan, billed only while the server is actually up. Always-on is $29.99–$59.98/mo · about $7.50 each split between 4 players, 1–2 cores dedicated, never shared.
Source-engine single-thread tick; workshop addons + gamemodes (TTT/DarkRP/Sandbox) drive RAM. Session/event play — a natural fit for ad-hoc, metered hosting rather than 24/7.
Get the game
You buy Garry's Mod once from Steam. It is $4.99 there, a one-off purchase. NecroHost rents you the server it runs on, which is the monthly figure above.
