Off the top of my head, you could use a decal that has like, vines and dirt and stuff, and have it spread over the surfaces of the room, although it wouldn’t look as “3D” as your examples. Decals | Unreal Engine Documentation

Oops, I just saw your last post…looks like that was your first idea! Unfortunately, I’m not sure how it’s actually done, so I can’t be of much more help.
