Treasure Hunt
While the kids have Easter Egg hunts, we'll have a treasure hunt of our own! Create a map best fitting the theme "treasure hunt". This could be a pot of gold at the end of a dungeon, or a pirate's parchment leading you to a valuable chest, just as long as there is treasure involved!

Originality/Creativity | Does the map offer interesting and new ideas, mechanics or other aspects? Includes creativity in both visuals and gameplay mechanics. | 10 |
| Theme | How well does the map follow the chosen theme? A mini game about being the first to find a treasure chest would score well, a tower defense or dota-like would not. | 30 |
| Aesthetics | Is the map pleasing to look at? Are models and textures chosen well to fit together? Includes terrain, imports chosen, custom art made for the map, visual design, etc. | 20 |
| Gameplay | Is it fun or engaging? Includes design of abilities, characters, balance, replayability (if applicable), and storyline for story-driven maps. A dota-like would not be original, but it would score highly in gameplay if it's well made. | 20 |
| Triggers/Code/Performance | How well is the map coded? Includes errors, bugs, performance issues. | 10 |
| Polish | General polish all-round the map. e.g. abilities have hotkeys, all units have icons, custom interface changes have a custom tooltip. | 10 |
