12 Item Challenge (SMM2)

The **12 Item Challenge** was a bi-weekly event in *Super Mario Maker 2* held by the Facebook community and a continuation of the event from *Super Mario Maker*. Creators join up to select 12 course parts and then have one week to create a course using only the available items. At the end of the week the courses are shared and played through.

The 12 Item Challenge is one of the longest running events in *Super Mario Maker* having been held continually from January 2016 to 2020 when it ended.
