Introducing Eggnite

April 1, 2019 at 12:00 AM

Egg Cave Is Becoming Eggnite

Egg Cave is excited and proud to announce that we, as a site, will be transitioning away from being an adoptables creature site and are instead becoming a new battle royale game! Egg Cave is becoming Eggnite.

What's Eggnite?

At its core, Eggnite is about the last creature standing. Starting tomorrow, users will have the ability to kill other users' creatures. If and when your Cove is completely wiped out, your account will be automatically closed (your username will be freed up). To participate and hop back into the game again, you'll be able to register a new account. When a 1st place winner is crowned, the entire game resets (all EC, all items, and all creatures).

We will mention that you'll always be able to reach for Resurrection Stones as long as your account has at least 1 creature alive. Bringing back creatures means your account can stay in game longer, of course!

New with Eggnite: Cave Crates

Eggnite will now introduce randomized loot boxes into the gameplay called Cave Crates.

Cave Crates are Eggnite's new way of obtaining creatures. It will eventually replace the current Cave approach and steal system tomorrow. Users find crates and need to open them to get a creature hidden inside at random.

Starting today, you can begin collecting Cave Crates when you see them around the site (similar to our annual Find The Gobblers event). When you see one on the page, click it to collect it for your account!

Open Cave Crates with Keys

Crates don't just open themselves, of course! You'll need Cave Keys to open the Cave Crates. Here's what keys open which crates (they have to match):

  • Bronze Key » Emerald Cave Crate
  • Silver Key » Topaz Cave Crate
  • Gold Key » Ruby Cave Crate
  • Platinum Key » Amethyst Cave Crate

Each crate will contain an assortment of creatures with the type of crate determining the rareness of it. For example, an Emerald Crate will mostly reward you with Cave commons with the possibility of slighter rarer creatures. The rarest crate, the Amethyst Cave Crate, may reward you with the rarest of the rare creatures including the Doovoo and Tine. (You heard us right!)

How do you get keys, you ask? These will be exclusively Cash Shop items only, beginning at 100 CC. They launch and will be available for purchase tomorrow, April 2.

Eggnite Recap

Prepare for the conversion to Eggnite tomorrow—the battle will begin and no creature is safe from being targeted. Today, collect Cave Crates around the site as they appear on the page. Beginning tomorrow, you can purchase your Keys in the Cash Shop to open them for creatures.

We hope you enjoy this exciting new change. We're moving away from only adoptables to something with a TON of ACTION!

@thursdays_dove Still haven't found what the Onny joke was about ☹️

@snowwall - Oh a few years ago, on April Fools, they said they were re-releasing a limited quantity of Onny's, but the minute you clicked on the link to claim one for yourself, it said they were "out of stock". x.x
