I am the prop hunt master!

Every once in a great blue moon, you get to see Fortnite content on the main channel! And Mr. Wheel is to thank for that as he has given me Fortnite Christmas maps! I know last year I played some pretty good maps. Let's see if that would be the same this year!

Before checking out for Christmas maps, I wanted to open my daily Winterfest present... I still think it's kind of stupid they don't let you stack presents anymore like... seriously why? What was the point of that? Either way, I got my stupid bat with a snowflake wallpaper on it and got to searching! The first map I found was Grinch Christmas Horror. This should be interesting. There was a few good amount of people playing this. I was put into a small waiting room once I got in. With a button to start the game that I couldn't press. In fact... I couldn't do a whole lot of anything in this room besides... walk around... the game never did start. And each time I tried to load back into the map, it never did again... wow good map. XD! I gave it one final shot but this time, as a private match. To my surprise, it actually worked! I select normal mode because... come on... do I look like a wimp? Yeah I didn't think so. The idea is that you're supposed to survive 7 days. On the first day, I am tasked with collecting 5 lost toys. The first of which being in the first room I spawn in. Unfortunately I don't make it far here as there is a Grinch quickly coming towards my ass. And I seem to be cornered with it. After it finally beats me up, I find myself in a little jail cell thing which... I can easily escape. There's a bookshelf that's also a secret door. In this hallway, I find a piece of a shotgun. Something tells me I will be taking this grinchy dude down. Inside a cabinet I open is a screwdriver. Inside a little drawer upstairs is the 2nd lost toy. I find some shotgun cartridges and inside the kitchen is a fridge that has a watermelon and the freezer has a key frozen in a block of ice. The fridge also opens up to a secret path. But I can't go very far through it as the door down below is boarded up and I can't take down the blanks. So being very haste to avoid the Grinch, I explore around the house to see what else I can find... and here's my problem. I find myself running in a lot of circles here. Scanning through each room for something I can open or access but to no luck. I do eventually find a panel on a staircase I can open to give me a car ignition key. On the fridge in the kitchen is a lock code. 6651. Using that on the safe on another staircase... and being very careful to avoid the Grinch gives me a cranked handle.

Trying to use the code on other safes does not work. There's a cabinet in a bedroom with many tools including a lever I can use to attach to a panel which will let me turn on the power... or... so I think. I mean I don't know it says it's on but when I try to flip on light switches, it says... no... you need power. After that, I'm once again stuck. Not knowing where the hell to go. Until I visit the kitchen again and find a lost toy in the oven and realizing I can put the frozen key in the microwave which will unlock the door downstairs... after I hide in a locker for a bit to avoid being eaten up whole by the Grinch. In this room is another power lever, a fuse box with empty fuses... oh so maybe that's why the power wasn't working. Of course the Grinch is on my damn tail and I can't close the fucking door. Great. There's a license plate with the number 7355 on it which looks to be another 4 digit code I need to use and there's bolt cutters below it. There also seems to be a workbench to let me build my full shotgun. But I don't have all the parts to it. And that ends my experience with this map as my 20 minutes run out for this one. It's a uh... I don't know it's a fine map I guess. I think my only personal problem with it is that I definitely got stuck a lot on it. Maybe some other people figured shit out faster on this map. But to me, I got lost more times than I should've. Maybe had I been able to play this map on public and not private, we might have been able to get further. But for now, it was time to move on to a new map. The really sad thing is that there didn't seem to be a lot of options when I looked up Christmas maps... I mean there were but a lot of them were tycoons or gun games. I wanted to find something... not a tycoon or gun game. How about Obby On A Bike? That sounds fun! And a Christmas event too? Oh yeah it's a Christmas map alright! What makes it Christmassy?... well... it has snow for one! Oh and it says Christmas on the upper right corner too! As for the game itself? Well you are on a bike for sure as you traverse the platforms that look like were made in 3 seconds in Blender. Weaving across and jumping over pits. Believe me, it can be harder than it looks. I mean just 10% in I couldn't jump over a tiny little gap and weave my way across.

There's honestly not much to say about this. You just ride your bike across the several block obstacles this map gives you. For the most part it wasn't that bad. Some sections easier and some harder than others. World 1 does add wrecking balls about 30% in. Nothing I can't handle. Really it was only around 50% where I started to have problems... for one somehow I managed to get a full upside down on my bike and I was clipping into the ground... okay that was kind of funny. But for the life of me I could not make it past this spiral. I think I was just gunning it too hard. You have zero control of your bike the moment you jump. I found myself rolling past several edges into the void on this part. Yes I did make it past it... once I learned what being slow was. There was another more narrow spiral later on. That one I did get past a lot quicker. World 1 did add tougher challenges later on. Though I was able to conquer them quite easily and finish it off and into world 2. I had some time to spare after all. world 2 is... well as much of the same as World 1 was. Still biking across the challenges each riding section gives you. I guess the spinning waffle cone section as I call it was new. 14% in was a hole in the wall section that took me a few tries. I guess it was about going in the right hole. But looking back now I realize it was not about jumping through a red hole. 22% in and I was riding across rotating Pac-Man's. It's not as bad as it looks if you just kind of gun it in a straight line. I got about 34% into world 2 before I had to call it. It's a decent mini-game map. Though I wish it had a more Christmas theme than just... snow. Oof these maps haven't been great so far. Can Christmas Prop Hunt House redeem the end of this disappointing creative Christmas showcase? Jumping into it and I guess I find myself mid-match looking for one lone prop. Oh it wasn't just a prop hunt map... it was a brainrot edition... oh... tucking cool. Either way, I take my ranger shotgun as I look for this one tiny prop. I'll give you one thing, this house is very nicely decorated! Perfect for the holidays! I tell you the owners of this place really went all out on it! Oh yeah... I got to make sure I turn off voice chat too. Nothing against the people I'm playing with of course.

Do we end up finding the one lone prop?... yeah no. But either way it was time to start a full game. I am one of the 3 props this first round. I do what I do best. Find a tiny ass item and find a... realistic place to hide in. I shift as a little rubber duck in a laundry room. Every 15 seconds, we make a ping sound to kind of indicate our location. I tell you... seeing that footstep noise indicator gives me the sweats. Especially having to wait 6 and a half minutes. Oh yeah this map uses that stupid brainrot text to speech. It's that... I don't know young male text to speech voice you've probably heard before. How cute it is to think that I will believe the Grinch will pinch my ass if I don't like the map. Jokes on you I've already dealt with the Grinch. It takes about 5 and half minutes for one prop to finally be found. That prop... not me! I don't end up moving at all this round and I claim victory with my other prop partner! For my 2nd round, I am not a huge fan of where I hide this time. To be fair I had to scramble quickly. I end up shifting into a box present out in the snow in the backyard. Yeah I had zero confidence here. Thinking I would be the first to be eliminated. I thought for sure I would've after I accidentally untransformed with the hunter like... 5 feet away from me... how the fuck did they not see me? I quickly transformed back into the present. How am I alive? Believe it or not but I was not the first prop found... wow I am honestly shocked. However... with just under 3 minutes left to play, one of the hunters is on my fucking ass. I know I have no chance if I stay... I fucking book it. As the only hider, I do my best to just evade the hunters as best as I can for the last couple minutes. I'm actually able to find a place to stall for a good 90 seconds or so before I have to book it again. As close as those hunters got to me, I was able to run out the clock and win! WOOOO! SUCK IT HUNTERS! YOU ALL SUCK! XD! One of them ends up getting a pity shot on me. But it doesn't matter. The game said props win first. And I was a prop. Doesn't matter if the screen also says hunters win. It said props win first, I was a prop...

And those hunters can... as I said... suck it!
