Egg Cave is a fun adoptables web site where you can adopt creatures, share them, take care of them, and make new friends. Mainly, you can collect and raise over 500 different creatures. You can get creatures daily at the cave. Creatures can die if you don’t feed them but, they will turn immortal at level 2000+, meaning they will not die. You can level up and grow creatures by getting them views, clicks and feeds. Feeding creatures is the most effective way to gain EC or eggcoins (the site’s currency). You can use EC to buy creatures, items and backgrounds called travels.

Words to know:
UFT: Up for Trade
NFT: Not for Trade
TNT: Transfer not Trade (do not offer)
UFA: Up for Auction or Up for Adoption
EC: Egg Coins (Currency - free)
CC: Cave Cash (Currency - costs real money)
CSP: Cash Shop Park Creature
TA: Travel Agency
PM: Private Message

When starting to trade, make sure you read peoples’ profiles and the creature profiles before asking them if something is UFT. I recommend learning how much a creature or item is worth before trying to trade for it.

How to feed quickly:
Follow these steps:
1) Ctrl+click all the eggs
2) Click the first tab
3) Feed the egg
4) Hit ctrl+w
5) Keep your mouse in the same place (food) and continue clicking then ctrl+w

To get started, I would check out the Help & FAQ section at http://eggcave.com/explore/faq
Rules can be found here: http://eggcave.com/guidelines

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Make sure you reply to people by clicking the bell or putting an @ symbol in front of their name so they get a notification called a ping. You can practice pinging me.

Have a great time on Egg Cave!

Wow thanks for all the info! That was quick 😊

But how long do eggs take to hatch? I see no click/feed meter? So not sure how I can tell ?

No problem.

Go to the first tab that says, "my stuff". Then click "My Creatures" and in red words it should say "Show Numbers To Next Evolution" and you can see what each egg needs on there.

Second question. Why do some need feeds, and others need clicks to evolve? Whats the difference and should I alter that in the click exchange to get only that stat they need to evolve? Thanks!

@daisy1664
That's just the way it is. Your creatures receive views anytime a person opens a page with your creatures on it. Clicks are received when someone clicks on a picture of your creature and feeds are received when they press the blue feed button.

I would alter all the creatures to you want feeds even if they don't need feeds to evolve. It is good for all your creatures to get any stat even if it is not the one it needs to evolve because those extra stats will get to lvl 2000 or immortality (creature can't die) faster.

Here are some ways a creature can evolve (It is stated in the Creature Species Page):

One needs views to evolve
Another requires clicks to evolve
And another requires feeds to evolve.

It's just different ways of how a species of a certain creature can evolve in eggcave. (Sorry if I'm not making sense)

If your creature needs Views to evolve, then as long as someone 'views' your creature, then you will gain 1 view point.

If your creature needs Clicks to evolve, then as long as someone clicks on your creature, then you will gain 1 click point.

If your creature needs Feeds to evolve, then you click the 'Feed' button on your creature. This will help you gain 1 feed point to your creature.

Hope that I'm making sense ^^;
