HAPPY 4 YEARS!

YEAR 4 CELEBRATIONS - Happy birthday weekend, Egg Cave! Nearly two and a half billion views and one million creatures later, it's been four very successful years! Visit the happy Macbots for a special gift from Egg Cave!

Take a look at all of the newest features.

Celebrations?! We're all about it.

Tim's Food Shoppe

Tim's Food Shoppe has been completely redesigned.
A whole new way to book creatures: filter out your immortals and easily see the creatures you need to book.
Extend your service while your creatures are at Tim's!
Cancel service early for a partial refund!

Science and Research Center: Creature Labs

A very generous, anonymous donor has covered the remainder of the recovery fund at the Science and Research Center. The thief or thieves have yet to be found.
Introducing the Creatures Labs, where you can purchase new and rare creatures for EC.
Say hello to the Flub and Trinit, the new genetically engineered species (with many more to come!):

Less Limits, More Control: Mail

There is now no limit to how many conversations you can have in Mail.
New preferences for accepting Mail: All, Friends Only, None (in Account Controls)

Easier Generation with EasyCode

Easily generate a list without immortals (even if you accidentally select one).
Ability to generate a list from an existing Cove List (no need to copy).

Strongroom Updates

The "Collect Interest" option will now be disabled for the day if you make a transaction (deposit or withdrawal) prior to collecting interest. Remember to collect interest first now!
Enjoy an increased interest rate from 7% to 8%!

Profile Updates

New preferences for accepting friend requests: Enabled, Disabled (in Account Controls)
Blocked users can no longer offer on your trades.
We hope you're not this boring, but users can now have blank statuses.
You can now specify a default Cove List to display on your Profile (in Manage Profile).

More To Talk About: Forums

Enjoy an increased character limit of 10,000 characters on forum posts (for you, our magical roleplayers).
Keep track of your character count when writing.

Adoption Center Updates

The Adoption Center in Ark City has been redesigned.
View all of the creatures available for adoption, not just when there's 3 or more available.
Abandon as many creatures as you'd like per day (no limit). Remember though that your creature is for life!

Town Hall

The Town Hall has been redesigned.

Happy birthday ❤️ BTW. when will more new creatures come?

bribri1114845 • 20 Jul 2013, 3:56 PM

Okay, I can not properly articulate my love and appreciation of the "hide immortals" option at Tim's. THANK YOU and HAPPY BIRTHDAY EC ❤️

thursdays_dove • 21 Jul 2013, 1:10 AM

Question: Will the new genetically engineered creatures be permanent or will they retire at some point? 😊

Meteoroid • 21 Jul 2013, 8:45 AM

@thursdays_dove The new Labs creatures are more or less permanent for right now. Like the Cave, they'll be around for a long time--

Meteoroid • 21 Jul 2013, 8:46 AM

--until it is decided to remove them to make room for newer creatures. Basically, there is no rush. 😋

thursdays_dove • 21 Jul 2013, 11:50 AM

@Meteoroid - Awesome! This whole event has made me completely broke, so I'm glad I'll have plenty of time to save for more. Thanks! 😸
