Fortnite has become a very popular game among the school's students and is a very common topic of their daily conversations. But why is it so popular? Some students say they "like the challenge of the game", and with most people being at least somewhat competitive, playing Fortnite against 100 people to see if they can win has become quite addicting. Students have been known to spend extended amounts of time and money on the game, and studies show that three out of every four students at the school play the game. The average time a student plays daily is roughly 2 hours and 30 minutes, but the longest consecutive time a person has played Fortnite at this school has been for 16 hours straight, and the most money spent on the game is 50 dollars. Fortnite has become more than just a game, it is now an epidemic.
