This year something new comes to the Spring Egg Hunt: The MouseHunt Eggsweeper Mini-Game! How Eggs-ilarating!
 
 
 
Eggsweeper is a brand new mini-game made in the spirit of Minesweeper. You have 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 rank.
 
 
 
Eggsweeper Egg Tiers by Title Range:
 
 
 
  • Tier 1: Novice to Journeyman/Journeywoman
 
  • Tier 2: Master to Lord/Lady
 
  • Tier 3: Baron/Baronness and Count/Countess
 
  • Tier 4: Duke/Duchess and up
 
 
 
These eggs will contain loot appropriate for areas in the Kingdom tied to the hunter ranks.
 
 
 
You can find 10 Eggsweeper Shovels inside of this year's Golden Egg. You can also find them in your Daily Loyalty Chest or purchase them from the Premium Store.

125 Marshmallow Monterey, 20 Eggstra Charge Charms, 15 Eggscavator Charge Charms, 5 Eggstra Charms, 150 Eggsweeper Shovels and 5 Eggsweeper Fertilizer
 
 
 
====General Interface Changes====
 
 
 
The Unfilled Spring Egg Carton has been retired and can no longer be filled with eggs. Due to this, we have temporarily frozen trade for it on the Marketplace. It can now be smashed with your Hunter's Hammer for 150 SB+.
 
 
 
In addition to the Spring Hunt release, we have also done some quality of life updates to sending supplies. You are now able to send and receive supplies to and from all hunters, regardless of friend status! There is a new setting in the Game Settings tab of the User Preferences page that will allow you to receive supplies from anyone. By default, this setting is disabled.
 
 
 
You may also notice some changes to how your "Special" inventory is organized. Some older event currencies and equipment have been moved to a new "Vintage" section, and others may have been shuffled around to more accurately organize your inventory.
