Compete for a chance to win 13,500 V-Bucks.
Welcome to the Fall 2024 Fortnite Creative Challenge!
This fall, you’re invited to show off your building skills in Fortnite Creative and compete for the chance to win awesome prizes. Your challenge? Build the spookiest, most creative haunted house ever seen in Fortnite!
My name is Andrew VH. I'm an educator who is passionate about using Fortnite as a Learning Laboratory. I’ll be your coach throughout the challenge, helping you every step of the way. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me at avheuv@gmail.com.
The Challenge
Your mission is to create a haunted house game in Fortnite Creative. Your haunted house should include:
A spooky prefab structure for the environment (make sure structure damage is turned off).
Classic escape room elements like keys, locks, and booby traps.
Enemies (sentries, creatures, bots, or wildlife) that can damage the player.
Custom "island settings" to add atmosphere and challenge.
Your objective is to build a game where players must escape the haunted house without dying. Be creative, make it spooky, and have fun!
Prizes
The top three haunted house entries will each win 13,500 V-Bucks, so make sure your haunted house stands out to take home the loot.
