This article serves as a guide to setting everything up. After discovering Tunngle we were up and running in no time, seemingly providing a “it just works” VPN service for gamers. Every tip and piece of advice we could find did not allow us to connect to each other. When it came to setting up a VPN with my friend Andy, we found Hamachi to be a nightmare and were soon looking for an alternative. The combination of VPN and the Open to LAN feature of Minecraft allows you to play multiplayer Minecraft, with a select few people, easily and privately over the internet. Using VPN software, like Hamachi and Tunngle, you are able to connect to other people on the internet as if you were on the same local network. This provides a simple way for friends to play a game together, without having to actually set up and host a server. Ever since version 1.3 (Snapshot 12w25a) of Minecraft, you have been able to invite other players on your local LAN to your single player world.
