Important: These Advanced Build Kits are intended for advanced builders that enjoy the challenge of building something difficult. This often involves following a long series of instructions. Also, the builds with the Advanced Build Kits are often not forts that allow kids to play inside. If you prefer to build big forts to play inside instead, our Original Fort Kits or Minecraft Fort Kits are much better options.
