====More prize mice are on the loose!====
+
'''Eggsperience The Thrill of Egg Hunting!'''<br>
It's a King's Giveaway, which means more prize mice are on the loose! The King has swung open the gates of his personal treasure vault which has attracted prize mice from all over!
+
Eggs, Eggs, Eggs, Galore!
 +
 
 +
==== Spring Forward into another Egg-Packed Season! ====
 +
One of the most time-honoured events has returned to the Kingdom of Gnawnia! Lady Laura is back to grace the Kingdom with her culinary concoction Chocolatonium, the purest form of chocolate. Endulge in Eggstra Fondue, find eggs old & new. There is an abundance of things to find in the Spring Egg Hunt!
  
From now until '''June 8''' the Treasurer, Snooty, High Roller, Mobster, and Leprechaun will be encountered much more frequently everywhere in the Kingdom.
+
To get started, you'll need a special egg-finding piece of equipment: the Eggscavator. If you do not already own one, you can claim one for free from the Spring Egg Hunt heads-up display to start your eggsceptional season!
  
During the giveaway each time you attract a mouse you'll have a chance to attract a prize mouse as a '''bonus hunt''' which does not consume any cheese or charms and will appear as an additional hunt in your Hunter's Journal.
+
==== Spring Mice and Spring Eggs ====
  
Capture these rare and valuable mice for a chance to win SUPER|brie+, King's Credits, and more!
+
The Chocolatonium has driven the spring event mice into such a frenzy that you can find these mice '''EVERYWHERE''' in the Kingdom! They're so abundant that you do not need special cheese to attract them. In fact, you don't need any cheese at all!
  
====King's Prize Keys====
 
During the King's Giveaway prize mice will always drop a King's Prize key while all other mice have a small chance of dropping one. Use these keys to open 10 Mystery Prize Packs from your Hunter's Camp. These packs contain all sorts of goodies such as Regal Charms, King's Credits, SUPER|brie+, and the always popular Rainbow Scroll Case!
 
  
Once you've opened all 10 Mystery Prize Packs any additional keys you find can be used to open Mini Prize Packs containing more modest rewards. Shortly after the giveaway ends any King's Prize Keys in your inventory will be removed, so make sure to use them as you loot them!
+
The spring event mice '''all come exclusively from bonus hunts''' meaning they'll occasionally wander into your trap without consuming cheese or charms and without affecting any area gameplay progression. The spring mice will always drop Chocolatonium when caught.
  
====Prized items====
+
==== Eggstra Fondue: A Returning Decadent Delight! ====  
Capturing a Treasurer, Snooty, or High Roller Mouse will reward you with King's Credits which you can spend at the King's Arms / King's Cart for equipment to help you in a wide range of hunting endeavours.
+
Eggstra Fondue returns! Activated through the event interface, this luxurious fondue produces Chocolatonium, doubles any eggs dropped, and produces extra Chocolatonium for each egg looted! When paired with the Chocolate Bar Base, it has the rare chance to triple the eggs dropped instead of just doubling them.
  
Capturing a Mobster Mouse will reward you with SUPER|brie+ in quantities of 25, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, or even 1,000!
+
'''Return the Chocolatonium to Lady Laura to unlock the shelves in her Chocolate Shop''' and she'll show her gratitude by presenting you with special one-time rewards for unlocking each shelf. Once a shelf has been unlocked, you'll be able to purchase the items on that shelf with Chocolatonium anytime during the event.
  
Considered some of the most rare items in the Kingdom are the Mystery Pot of Gold and Mystery Satchel of Gold dropped by the extremely rare and elusive '''Leprechaun Mouse'''. Should you have the extraordinary luck of not only encountering but also capturing a Leprechaun Mouse it will most often drop a Mystery Satchel of Gold containing a generous quantity of Gold along with SUPER|brie+ and charms. On more rare occasions, the Leprechaun will drop a Mystery Pot of Gold which contains even more SUPER|brie+ and the chance of a cash prize!
+
==== New Eggs, New Eggs! ====
 +
There are 11 new eggs for you to find located in the Folklore Forest! Can you collect them all for their bonus loot? Remember, you'll need your trusty Eggscavator to find them so make sure you pick one up before you head out! You can also view all the eggs in the Area Eggs tab within the Eggscavator interface.
  
====Rainbow Treasure Maps, now PARTY SIZE====
+
Here's a preview of some new eggs you can find:
Inside one of the 10 Mystery Prize Packs hunters will find a Rainbow Scroll Case. This bright and colourful case contains a massive treasure map containing 65, 100, or 120 mice! This lengthy map usually allows for six hunters to participate, however, hunters can now upgrade their Rainbow Scroll Cases into a PARTY SIZE version by visiting the King's Arms or King's Cart. The exchange costs a regular Rainbow Scroll Case, 1 Rare Map Dust, and 50 Magic Essence. This jumbo scroll contains a map with 65, 100, or 120 mice, but allows for '''10 hunters''' to participate!

Find Eggsweeper Shovels, Magical Eggsweeper Fertilizer, Eggstra Fondue, and all kinds of resources and loot to help your hunting endeavours!
  
Not interested in completing such a lengthy map? Rainbow Treasure Maps can be completed at any time by claiming a consolation prize for a portion of the Points, Gold, and Ancient Charms based on the number of mice captured.

====Regal Deals====
+
As you unlock more shelves at Lady Laura's Shop you'll gain access to more difficult Egg Hunt Scroll Cases requiring increasingly higher title requirements.
To celebrate the King's Giveaway the King is offering some regal deals on the most popular cheese in the Kingdom: SUPER|brie+!
 
  
Until the end of the giveaway some of the most popular bundles of SUPER|brie+ are on sale with savings ranging from 10% all the way to 20% off!
+
==== The Eggsweeper Mini-Game Has Returned! ====
  
Additionally, a Party Size Rainbow Scroll Case is available, as well as the Royal Benevolence Bundle. This benevolent bundle contains a variety of Regal Charms packed alongside a gift basket containing 75 SUPER|brie+! The bundle rewards one month of Lucky Golden Shield upon purchase, as well as another month of shield when the basket is opened, making it a great way to share the shield with a fellow hunter!
+
'''HOW TO PLAY:''' There are 10 eggs hidden somewhere in the field and you need to reveal them all to earn rank-specific rewards! Each tile you reveal costs 1 Eggsweeper Shovel. When you reveal a tile, you will either be shown a number or an egg. The number shown is a clue representing how many eggs are hidden in nearby tiles (diagonals included). If you reveal an egg, you get a special Eggsweeper Egg added to your inventory based on your hunter title.

The King has assembled this eggsquisite collection of bundles and kits to help you find the most eggs and the most Chocolatonium!
  
Bonus hunts do not affect area progression, consume cheese or charms, or trigger special hunting effects and abilities. This means bonus hunts will not do things such as move your submarine forward in the Sunken City, advance your position in the Valour Rift, affect rage levels in Whisker Woods Rift, etc.

Previously, bonus hunts not affecting progression also meant that mice encountered on a bonus hunt were not affected by special trap bonuses or abilities. Things such as the Riftwalker/Riftstalker Set Bonus, upgraded Prestige Base stats, etc. However, '''this is no longer the case'''. The "special" bonuses '''specifically''' provided by your trap, base, charm, and aura(s) (not area bonuses like the Furoma Rift Droid) are now taken into account as expected when encountering a mouse on a bonus hunt.

Chocolatonium, while purely delicious, has a highly unstable atomic structure and therefore only has a very short half-life. Any pure Chocolatonium exposed to the open air will undergo radioactive decay after only four weeks and even when it's properly contained within a hunter's inventory, it will only last an additional two weeks.
 +
 
 +
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; padding: 0.416em">As of '''April 29''', mice will no longer drop Chocolatonium and eggs will no longer be found in the Kingdom.

 +
As of '''May 6''', any Chocolatonium that remains in a hunter's inventory will decay into nothingness and the Eggsweeper Game will close.

Make sure to spend it all at the Chocolate Shop while you can!</div>

The Spring Egg Hunt Has Begun!

1 April 2025

Eggsperience The Thrill of Egg Hunting!
Eggs, Eggs, Eggs, Galore!

Spring Forward into another Egg-Packed Season!

One of the most time-honoured events has returned to the Kingdom of Gnawnia! Lady Laura is back to grace the Kingdom with her culinary concoction Chocolatonium, the purest form of chocolate. Endulge in Eggstra Fondue, find eggs old & new. There is an abundance of things to find in the Spring Egg Hunt!

To get started, you'll need a special egg-finding piece of equipment: the Eggscavator. If you do not already own one, you can claim one for free from the Spring Egg Hunt heads-up display to start your eggsceptional season!

Spring Mice and Spring Eggs

The Chocolatonium has driven the spring event mice into such a frenzy that you can find these mice EVERYWHERE in the Kingdom! They're so abundant that you do not need special cheese to attract them. In fact, you don't need any cheese at all!


The spring event mice all come exclusively from bonus hunts meaning they'll occasionally wander into your trap without consuming cheese or charms and without affecting any area gameplay progression. The spring mice will always drop Chocolatonium when caught.

Eggstra Fondue: A Returning Decadent Delight!

Eggstra Fondue returns! Activated through the event interface, this luxurious fondue produces Chocolatonium, doubles any eggs dropped, and produces extra Chocolatonium for each egg looted! When paired with the Chocolate Bar Base, it has the rare chance to triple the eggs dropped instead of just doubling them.

Return the Chocolatonium to Lady Laura to unlock the shelves in her Chocolate Shop and she'll show her gratitude by presenting you with special one-time rewards for unlocking each shelf. Once a shelf has been unlocked, you'll be able to purchase the items on that shelf with Chocolatonium anytime during the event.

New Eggs, New Eggs!

There are 11 new eggs for you to find located in the Folklore Forest! Can you collect them all for their bonus loot? Remember, you'll need your trusty Eggscavator to find them so make sure you pick one up before you head out! You can also view all the eggs in the Area Eggs tab within the Eggscavator interface.

Here's a preview of some new eggs you can find:

M1000 Egg Mythical Master
Sorcerer Egg
Mythical Dragon
Emperor Egg

Something New: Scavenger-Style Egg Hunts!

This year Lady Laura is selling four new Scroll Cases that when opened will begin a Scavenger Hunt style hunt for specific eggs! You and up to five other hunters can embark on these special egg hunts to find Treasure Chests loaded with eggciting loot! Find Eggsweeper Shovels, Magical Eggsweeper Fertilizer, Eggstra Fondue, and all kinds of resources and loot to help your hunting endeavours!

Over Easy contains 15
eggs from Novice to
Knight locations
Over Medium contains
20 eggs from
Lord/Lady to
Count/Countess
locations
Over Hard contains 25
eggs from
Duke/Duchess to
Archduke/Archduchess
locations
Eggstreme contains 40
eggs from Grand Duke
and up locations!

As you unlock more shelves at Lady Laura's Shop you'll gain access to more difficult Egg Hunt Scroll Cases requiring increasingly higher title requirements.

The Eggsweeper Mini-Game Has Returned!

HOW TO PLAY: There are 10 eggs hidden somewhere in the field and you need to reveal them all to earn rank-specific rewards! Each tile you reveal costs 1 Eggsweeper Shovel. When you reveal a tile, you will either be shown a number or an egg. The number shown is a clue representing how many eggs are hidden in nearby tiles (diagonals included). If you reveal an egg, you get a special Eggsweeper Egg added to your inventory based on your hunter title.

These eggs will contain loot appropriate for areas in the Kingdom tied to hunter ranks. This year, the Tier 5 Eggsweeper egg has been updated to only contain loot for Archduke/ Archduchess hunter ranks. A new Tier 6 Eggsweeper egg has been introduced which contains loot for Viceroy and up hunters!

Interested in lower tiers of loot? Your Hunter's Hammer can be used to carefully chip a layer off an egg to downgrade it a tier. Just remember to swing extra carefully!

For even more eggstraordinary rewards, dust your Eggsweeper field with Magical Fertilizer before you start the mini-game! All the eggs found in a fertilized field will eggsplode with even more amazing loot!
