Larry has been hard at work, continuing to hone his training techniques while advocating for improvements to infrastructure throughout the Kingdom!

Eggs, Eggs, Eggs, Galore!

==== Spring Forward into another Egg-Packed Season! ====
−
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''More shops means less remembering which location sells which item and no more traveling around merely to check the price of items!'''<br></div></div>
+
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!
  
−
Gone are the days where hunters needed to cross over the Elub Shore when their supplies of Gouda Cheese or Coconut Milk were depleted. No longer will hunters have to descend the Mountain simply to check the price of a trap in town before trudging back to their hunting grounds!
+
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!
  
−
Today, the King’s infrastructure project has been completed, ensuring that every hunting location has a Cheese Shoppe, General Store, and Trapsmith. Now, no matter where you’re hunting, you’ll always be able to restock on basic cheese and hunting supplies!
+
==== Spring Mice and Spring Eggs ====
  
−
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
+
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!
−
<div style="font-size: 115%>Nearly every location now has a Cheese Shoppe, Trapsmith, and General Store.<br></div></div>
 
  
−
Larry has ensured every location now has a Trapsmith stocked with Weapons and Bases appropriate for hunters who are first entering the area.
 
  
−
With the advancements in trap-building technology, Trapsmiths are now able to supply traps to hunters which previously needed to be discovered and crafted. Furthermore, Trapsmiths have simplified the process of obtaining traps in many cases by replacing some of their material costs with an equivalent gold cost. No need to supply the Trapsmith with the Platinum Bars needed to craft the trap yourself – It’s all included in the price!
+
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.

<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">

==== Eggstra Fondue: A Returning Decadent Delight! ====
−
<div style="font-size: 115%>Many traps created via crafting can now also be purchased from a Trapsmith for the same gold and item costs.<br></div></div>
+
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.
  
−
==== Many Blueprints Are Being Phased Out ====
+
'''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.
−
With the secrets of crafting now revealed to Trapsmiths throughout the Kingdom, crafting simple traps is now a somewhat antiquated practice. As such, blueprints have been removed from General Stores for any traps which are now purchasable through Trapsmiths.
 
  
−
Any blueprints removed from General Stores will remain usable in crafting tables, allowing hunters to complete their traps. Though they will later be removed from existence, along with their unique associated materials and recipes, therefore wise hunters should use their Hunter’s Hammers to receive a refund on their blueprints while they can.
+
==== 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.

<div style="font-size: 115%>Blueprints are no longer sold in General Stores due to traps and bases being sold directly from Trapsmiths. These Blueprints can still be utilized on the crafting table or otherwise smashed with the Hunter’s Hammer for a full refund.<br></div></div>

Continuing with his efforts to improve the knowledge base of hunting techniques, Larry has continued to expose weaknesses on mice throughout the Whisker Woods, Furoma, all the way through to the Tribal Isles.

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!

10 Eggsweeper Shovels
Dig, dig, dig! 		Magical Eggsweeper Fertilizer
Reap what you sow!
125 Eggsweeper Shovels
Dig some more!! 		Eggsweeper Starter Pack
Get Eggscavating!

Supplies and Eggcessories

The King has assembled this eggsquisite collection of bundles and kits to help you find the most eggs and the most Chocolatonium!
