General
Story
It is the fourth of July and the player, named Andy, must go find their friend Ken in order to put together a fireworks show.
Gameplay
The player traverses a suburban neighborhood, going house to house solving puzzles, mazes, and doing parkour challenges. The next location is given as a letter from Ken, who is always moving about. If the wrong house is walked into, players are sent to a punishment room and forced to restart the map.
Aesthetics
There are several houses around the map, each with their own unique furnishings and decorations around them. The houses and the surrounding area are designed realistically, resembling a typical American suburb. There is a large road in the center of the map and electric wires up above, tall trees, street lamps, and walls surrounding each house.
Challenges
This map is featured in four challenges, Flamingo Fury, 2013 Assortment, The Path of Heroes, and Hexa.
Trivia
- Block Party is the origin of the Flamingo. It was made as a lawn ornament for one of the houses by Pieceofcheese and shortly later adopted as a "mascot" of sorts by Yeroc.
- The two main characters in the map, Andy and Ken, represent Minr admins Packs and Kenad respectively. (Andy is Packs' real name, as stated in Funky Town)
