Hunger Games, often called Survival Games, drops a crowd into an arena with chests. You grab food, armor, and weapons in the opening minute, then fight until one player or one team is left. The map may shrink, supply drops may land, and a deathmatch pulls campers back to the center. Rounds last minutes, not weeks, and a lobby sends you into the next map as soon as the winner is called. Variants add kits, a team mode, or custom items in the cornucopia. It is the category for a battle-royale style match inside Minecraft. The opening chest rush is the part people remember. The best Hunger Games servers can be found here.

Hunger Games, often called Survival Games, drops a crowd into an arena. Chests hold food, armor, and weapons. You grab what you can, then fight until one player or one team remains.

Kits and team modes are common add-ons. This is a match, not a season.
Both end with one winner, but the maps differ. Hunger Games is usually a ground arena with a shared loot pile at the start. SkyWars puts you on a private island in the void and asks you to bridge or pearl toward the middle. If you spawn alone above nothing, you are in SkyWars. If you spawn in a cornucopia with everyone else, you are in Hunger Games.
