🧟 New Community Contest with a special sponsor: LogitechG! 💙
This time it's not just about the house, it's also a bit about the story side of the project! Come up with a monster-themed property (it can be based on ANY monster - one you know or just made up!) and on top of that make sure that the house shares some spicy details about the monstrous host's Halloween plans! Are the witches meeting up for a party? Or is it a bunch of banshees planning a ball? Did someone mention a corpse cookout?!
Unleash your building (and storytelling!) creativity! 👻
