It's November, Which Means Gobblers!

November 1, 2023 at 12:00 AM

Welcome To November!

Welcome to November at Egg Cave! Our annual site event, Find The Gobblers, returns today!

The Halloween Fair Has Closed

The stands at the Halloween Fair and Seed collecting are now closed and complete. As a reminder, you can use your remaining, unspent Seeds through November 21 at the Prize Shop.

Congratulations to our top collectors of Seeds! Did you make the list?

Find The Gobblers: A New Creature Prize

Find The Gobblers is back with an all-new creature prize. Here's how it works: for the month of November, Gobblers will appear overlaid on pages around the site. To collect one, click on it whenever you see one. The top 100 collectors will receive a 1000 CaveCash Voucher ($10) and a Patatta at the end of the month.

Like last year, Gobblers will continue to appear at 100% opacity—that is to say are not faded when overlaid on pages. This should make them easier to spot and see.

Do not participate in Find The Gobblers from side accounts.

Ready? Set. Go!

I finally found a gobbler ! I hope it's not just a miracle but that they will actually show up normally now...

Ian • 1 Nov 2023, 12:57 PM

Gobblers are appearing normally!

netherling • 1 Nov 2023, 1:05 PM

The Patatta is so cute ❤️ I need it.

netherling • 1 Nov 2023, 1:05 PM

I also adore the monthlies this month, RIP my wallet

smartie2742 • 1 Nov 2023, 1:12 PM

The gobblers weren't showing up for me and I was about to complain, but decided to try closing the Eggcave window and reopening it first. And there was a gobbler staring me in the face. So, it works for me now!

smartie2742 • 1 Nov 2023, 1:27 PM

Are they supposed to be extremely rare? I've fed a lot of creatures, but only found four. Do they still show up on pages that you open in a new tab? I always ctrl+click lots of creatures before feeding, and I remember a past event where things didn't show up if you did that.

zoruna • 1 Nov 2023, 1:38 PM

It's Gobbler time! It's time to live on Gobblers and dream of Gobblers like last year. But the price is worth it :")

idol • 1 Nov 2023, 1:50 PM

Awe.. not personally a fan of the monthlies and its my birthday month. 😋 maybe I'll just get the Wayaden. Not even gonna bother with the gobblers idk how you everyone gets the numbers you do sometimes XD good luck everyone 😊

snowywinter • 1 Nov 2023, 1:59 PM

I wasn't too fond of the new releases, but the charm kind of snuck up on me. The 200 Feeds stage of the Qarga keeps making me laugh thinking it's something a certain friend would probably adore. (and then there's the Wayaden's last stage. ^^)

snowywinter • 1 Nov 2023, 2:14 PM

Is it just me or does the Patatta image with a heart seem like it should be the last stage? (That description though o.O lol. wow. // This doesn't dissuade/distract the 'Munklicker ;P )

bunnyshadow • 1 Nov 2023, 2:54 PM

The Patatta is my favorite EC creature lol.

raitonchidori • 1 Nov 2023, 4:38 PM

@Ian since Adarna, Bellato, Kringus, Bomnom, Chrishorse were already re-released, if they be chosen again, wouldn't it mean it can more than double? Also, Ambrok, which was already re-released in November 2021, shouldn't be a November creature? Why can we vote on it for December?

dragrawr • 1 Nov 2023, 5:55 PM

Gobbler: "STOCK RELEASED OF TOTAL: 40% • TOTAL SOLD OUT: 41%" @Ian ?

fainne_24 • 1 Nov 2023, 6:02 PM

16 released at this time

structuresfromsilence • 1 Nov 2023, 6:02 PM

Tried to get a Gobbler, but the stock was sold out in less than 10 seconds 😱

valorieviolet • 1 Nov 2023, 6:37 PM

@dragrawr now it says "STOCK RELEASED OF TOTAL: 60% • TOTAL SOLD OUT: 62%" lmao

taunter • 1 Nov 2023, 6:38 PM

@okami I was able to get one! Thanks again for the advice 😊

okami • 1 Nov 2023, 6:43 PM

@taunter Congrats! 😃 Glad you were able to snag one!

dragrawr • 1 Nov 2023, 8:24 PM

@valorieviolet 0.0.

metaphor • 2 Nov 2023, 12:00 AM

Got a Gobbler, yay now I can go shower and cook lol

okami • 2 Nov 2023, 12:13 AM

Unless my count is off, these were the numbers: 1st wave= 17 , 2nd wave= 13, 3rd wave= 16, 4th wave=21. So 67 Gobblers total rereleased.

sartre • 2 Nov 2023, 12:14 AM

All the Gobbler’s are sold out didn’t even get one. Oh well.

kalessin • 2 Nov 2023, 3:29 AM

Gobblers are now appearing for me but I'm a day behind :/ This was a really unfortunate bug, I'm not sure if I can catch up ☹️

tehuti88 • 2 Nov 2023, 3:48 AM

The Gobblers are appearing but there's a time now & then when they definitely DON'T show up every 1-3min. I've been looking around for maybe 10min. now without luck, it's weird & inconsistent at times.

taunter • 2 Nov 2023, 7:02 AM

@okami Wow that's pretty small.

dragonelle • 2 Nov 2023, 9:51 AM

I can't find gobblers on the mobile version, is this normal?

mami • 2 Nov 2023, 11:16 AM

@dragonelle They do show up but since they can appear anywhere on the page including 'out of bounds', your best best is to pick a short page to refresh every few min (like the thief shop or oasis)

mami • 2 Nov 2023, 11:16 AM

Source: I am on mobile too

dragonelle • 2 Nov 2023, 11:24 AM

@mami thank you !

redflipflap • 2 Nov 2023, 9:30 PM

i love the wayaden so much, i gotta get a couple 😊

dr_grinch • 3 Nov 2023, 9:53 AM

Do the seeds we dont turn into prizes rollover to next year, or do they go poof?

Orderedchaos • 3 Nov 2023, 12:41 PM

@dr_grinch If you have seeds spend them. Seeds do not carry over to next year.

frankenstein • 3 Nov 2023, 8:56 PM

The only place I can't seem to find any Gobs is on mobile. And by mobile, I mean my phone, since I can find them fine on my Kindle. It's weird. Just means I can't hunt while I'm at work :c

ida92 • 4 Nov 2023, 6:26 AM

I found like 5 gobblers today on my mobile, but since the last one I can't find any more. This should be a bug. I won't have access to my computer today...

tehuti88 • 4 Nov 2023, 11:06 AM

Yeah, there's something weird & inconsistent about them, I look mainly on mobile so maybe that's why? Been clicking all over for the past 15min. without a sign of any, it's bizarre & a bit frustrating. :/

senkou • 5 Nov 2023, 1:26 AM

I've been gobbler hunting on my mac since it started and i'd get one every minute or so, but i haven't found any on mac today, only some rarely on mobile? can this bug please be fixed @ian 😮

snowywinter • 5 Nov 2023, 1:40 AM

I haven't found any either since the roll back to Eastern Standard Time

snowywinter • 5 Nov 2023, 3:13 AM

And they're back an hour later.

tehuti88 • 6 Nov 2023, 3:45 PM

Been checking on tablet for over a half hour now, no Gobblers...sigh.

snowywinter • 7 Nov 2023, 7:44 PM

@tehuti88 I don't know what it is, but this year I have found 0 Gobblers in portrait orientation. They're still more rare on landscape than on a PC, but at least I can find about 5 an hour. (better than nothing when i can't be at a computer.)

snowywinter • 8 Nov 2023, 7:34 PM

Thank you devs on dealing with the mobile gobs issue! ❤️

kediset • 8 Nov 2023, 7:52 PM

looking at the Patatta again.. almost seems like the stages are out of order lol. At least the one middle-right one looks like it should be after egg o-o but that's just moi..

snowywinter • 8 Nov 2023, 10:30 PM

@kediset Yay! I'm finally not the only one that feels that way. (Or saying it anyhow.) Usually people are all over things when the stages look off, but it's been crickets with this one.

snowywinter • 8 Nov 2023, 11:25 PM

the forum thread I made about Patatta Stages.

snowywinter • 9 Nov 2023, 11:12 PM

Gah! Going back a page no longer works when you miss a Gobbler while feeding. : ( (They disappear)

kleineprinz • 13 Nov 2023, 3:51 AM

Hi, I missed more than a week of quest but without too much trouble I was able to get into the top 100. I'm really happy because I like this creature. good hunt !
