Egg Cave is quite the happening place! Visit our blog for the latest updates on everything new that we add to the site — new creatures, exciting worlds, account updates, and unique activities to do!
The Mothman is an ominous creature that is reportedly seen prior to a large disaster. It is one of the most popular creatures discussed among Ark's ever-growing community of cryptid enthusiasts, many of whom desire to see this flying red-eyed omen for themselves in spite of the tragedy that may follow.
Catch a glimpse of the Mothman in the Cave as part of Creature Release Week.

The name Dropalla comes from the fact that these vicious, nocturnal bears wait high up in trees and drop down to attack you with their enormously large claws and teeth when you're directly underneath them. Like other cryptids... is their existence really proven to be true though?
Find the Dropalla in the Cave as part of Creature Release Week.
If you've never experienced Creature Release Week before, get ready! Each day for the next week, we'll be releasing one brand-new species in the Cave for you to find and adopt. The final day of Creature Release Week is the 8th day, when all creatures are available from the Cave. Will you collect them all?
All creature stages will be revealed at the end of the week. The rest are hidden with the exception of the Hoddel (already known in the CDWC). Cave attempts are increased to 25 per day but will return to the normal 10 attempts per day after the final (8th) day.
THIS IS CREATURE RELEASE WEEK 2019: CRYPTIDS! WELCOME!
Cryptids are creatures who are rumored to exist but haven't been proven to exist by scientific observation. The Kraken would be an example of this.
Based off the Hodag, this is the Hoddel. It was discovered by some Arkian scientists in the shallow swamps of Ark. Many thanks to @firedawn for writing the winning CDWC description (the first Hoddel in existence has been added to your account for free).
Cave attempts have been fixed and now allow you to visit 25 times per day without a wait. After that, it's the normal wait time.
It's the second Sunday of the month... for today you can earn double the Egg Coins for feeding creatures everywhere on the site. So, start visiting your friends' profiles and take advantage of it!
It's time for some songbooks! Check out these brand-new Songs of Ark volumes that are now restocking at the Leila Library.
This Creature Release Week 2019 species is available for writing in the Creature Description Writing Contest. The winner will receive the first of its kind.
Creature Release Week returns on January 14. Does anyone want to guess what this year's theme will be?
The following 8 Cash Shop Travels will be retiring from the Cash Shop on January 10 at 11:59 PM ECT. If you plan on getting one of these, do so before then!
We recently announced that we'd begin releasing trinkets for popular Egg Cave creatures instead of just for monthlies. We hope that you enjoy this change and can benefit.
This month, we have brand new sets of Trinket Travels for the Kujak, Mo, Yazan, and Maser! They're restocking now and are available.
The Potion of Rebirth wasn't resetting "hatched at" and "immortal at" dates when used. These dates are now automatically cleared when the potion is used.
Players who have used the Potion of Rebirth in the past don't have anything to worry about. These dates will and are updated when the reborn creature reaches its new hatch and immortal dates. It's just that they should be cleared from the start and now are.
We're proud to announce that, thanks to our amazing players who have submitted their ideas in the Fan Art & Creature Suggestions forum, all of February 2019's creatures that will be released will be user suggestions.
February's have already been chosen. You can begin submitting your March (St Patrick's Day) suggestions now. We're watching the forum! Thanks again to our lovely players!
