One of Fortnite's Lantern Fest Week 1 Quests requires players to solve a tricky Purple Lantern Puzzle for 20,000 XP.

Lantern Fest Tour, a Fortnite Creative island built by Illusion Creative, is full of quests and challenges for players to complete to earn free in-game rewards. The Ramadan celebration offers players a more relaxed gaming experience compared to the chaotic world of MEGA City.

Players can solve one of the five puzzles, divided by color, to complete the quest. Then, they can complete the other four puzzles for extra XP.

Here's a breakdown of how to solve the Purple Lantern Puzzle.

Once players enter Lantern Fest Tour Island, they must travel to the Purple Lantern, located between Parkour Paradise and Slippery Slide. Players will quickly spot the vibrant purple trees surrounding the lantern.

After they go inside, they will be transported to the puzzle room where they will have 30 seconds to complete the task. There are little instructions given before players find themselves inside a child's playroom, holding a hammer pickaxe.

To successfully solve the puzzle, players must hit the large stuffed animals in the following order:

  • Cuddle Team Leader (Pink Bear)
  • Meowscles (Cat)
  • Peely (Banana)
  • Gnome
  • Teddy Bear (Brown Bear)

After players hit each toy, they will receive extra XP for completing the puzzle along with the Week 1 Quest XP.
