Easter Egg Hunt

The Easter Egg Hunt is an annual week long event, during which Easter Eggs randomly appear on-screen at random throughout Torn. They will be added to a player's inventory when clicked. Once they are in your inventory, eggs will remain there until you use them. You cannot sell, trade or dump them.

This event uses event time slot, where player choose their own event starting time.

Event Start Time: 2nd of April; player's chosen start time(between 10:00TCT and 16:00TCT)
Event End Time: 8th of April;

Mechanics

Each year 10 to 12 eggs are spawned:

in 2023 first year of the event 71 players found 12 eggs^[1]
in 2024 total sum of 23 eggs were found
in 2025 players have found total sum of 33 eggs, and at least one player finding 12 eggs.
in 2026 total sum of 44 have been found, with newspaper reporting that maximum one can find is 11.^[2]^[3], but some new players finding 12 eggs( for example: Bilbogaggins [4141810]) and Torn City Staff confirming via report that 12 is possible^[4] and 11 is average.

If a player fails to find all their eggs during an event, any uncollected eggs will roll over to the following year. For instance, if you only found two eggs previously, the remaining nine will be added to your new batch, giving you a total of 20 discoverable eggs the next year.

Previous year eggs: These reappear immediately in new locations at the start of the event.^[5] Players only have previous year eggs if player had account. Unsure if player being active during the event window matters.

New Eggs: These spawn gradually on random pages over the course of the event and stop spawning 24 hours before the end of the event.

Eggs do not despawn; any remaining at the end of the event will be saved for next year, though their page locations will be randomized again.

To ensure fairness, the spawn rate is uniform for all players and is no longer influenced by individual activity levels.^[6]

It is possible for multiple eggs to spawn on the same page.

Historical Notes

It was released on 1 April 2010. ^[9] Easter Eggs randomly spawn on-screen during the event and will be added to a player's inventory when clicked.

The event underwent a major update prior to the start of the 2023 Easter Egg Hunt. Easter Egg Hunts that took place in 2022 or earlier allowed players to exchange a full set of colored eggs for a Gold Egg, the Good Friday honor bar and 20 points. Additional exchanges only gave a Gold Egg and 20 points.

Before the 2023 event, eggs gave their bonuses upon being found. All eggs gave 50 happiness (except the Gold Easter Egg, which gave 250 happinesss) and 30 minutes of booster cooldown when eaten. The old bonuses are listed in the table below ^[10]:

Egg Color	Bonus
Blue Easter Egg	+ $100,000
Green Easter Egg	+50 Energy
Red Easter Egg	+10 Nerve
Yellow Easter Egg	+250 Happiness
White Easter Egg	+5 Points
Black Easter Egg	+ Crime Experience
Brown Easter Egg	+100 to random working stat
Orange Easter Egg	+50 Casino Tokens
Pink Easter Egg	+ Experience
Purple Easter Egg	+10 Mission Credits

During the first year of the event, eggs were found through events when players visited certain locations pertaining to each egg. ^[11] The Gold Easter Egg only required the black, blue, green, red, yellow, and white eggs to be obtained in the first year- the brown, orange, and pink eggs were added in the second year in 2011, and the purple egg was the final egg added in 2021.

"invisible" eggs that did not have an image but could be clicked were added early on in the event's history to catch players using illegal scripts that auto-clicked eggs. This has been removed as of 2023. ^[12]
