@spellboundrose Hi Rose! My name's Alex, nice to meet you 😊 I just joined recently as well, but if you have any specific questions, I'd be happy to help.

Basically, EC is a creature collector site. There are exclusive creatures that come out every month which you have a chance of finding in the cave. The site has been around for more than a decade, so there are hundreds and hundreds of creatures (many of which are difficult to obtain).

The main component of EC is feeding other people's creatures to get egg coins or EC (the primary currency on the site). With a lot of time and patience, you can get a lot of EC, which you can use to buy retired creatures from other players.

I'll list some other noteworthy places to check out:

✦ The Asteroid (a daily where you have a veeeery small chance of acquiring valuable creatures)
✦ The Oasis (where valuable creatures are stocked randomly. Also very unlikely)
✦ Daily Trivia (look up the answers in The Archives)
✦ Trades (this is where you can find people trading creatures that are no longer available in the cave. Your account needs to be two days old to visit)
✦ Auctions (another place to get creatures. Sometimes you can find great deals, but I wouldn't get too attached, as there are many people who bid at the last second in order to win. Your account needs to be two days old to visit here as well)
✦ VEND Machine (another place to get retired creatures. The currency for vending is quest tokens, which are obtained by completing quests. Getting quest tokens takes a lot of time and ec, so I would wait a while before starting that)

Lastly, there are seasonal events on the site. The current one is the Gobbler hunt, a competition of who can find the most Gobblers (which are transparent turkeys that can appear on any site page anywhere on the page).

Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions. Cheers 🙂
Alex
