Welcome to the circle of sobriety, friend. There are no judgments here, only love. By embracing my light, you will take the first step on the long road to recovery. My white exterior represents hope. Hope that you will one day free yourself from the chains of addiction. Each time you partake of my pureness, the grip of substance shall release a little more. Give me your hand. Let us form a circle. One egg at a time, we will conquer your demons together.
Effect
Halves current drug addiction and increases booster cooldown by 6 hours.
Type
Booster

White Easter Egg is a Booster item that was released in April 2010 and was one of the original six colored Easter Eggs added to the game. [1] The White Easter Egg is found during the annual Easter Egg Hunt and halves a player's Drug Addiction when eaten. It cannot be sold to a store.

All White Easter Eggs that existed on 23 March 2023 were converted into the Chocolate Egg, a one-time event that was meant to prevent players from having large stocks of eggs from previous years after their effect was changed. [2]

Obtaining

The White Easter Egg can only be obtained during April. It can be obtained as Loot by defeating the Easter Bunny [17] [3] or from the Easter Egg Hunt, during which eggs spawn on-screen. The White Easter Egg will be added to a player's inventory when clicking its corresponding icon.

The White Easter Egg cannot be obtained through city finds and cannot be traded between players. The egg is the second most common by spawn rate, ahead of the Green, Red, and Yellow easter eggs, which tie for most common. [4]

Usage

Eating a White Easter Egg cuts a player's Drug Addiction in half and increases Booster Cooldown by six hours.

Historical Notes

In the first year of the event, Easter Eggs were added directly to a player's inventory through random events when a player visited a section of Torn corresponding to that egg. The White Easter Egg had a chance to be found when a player clicked the Forums. [5]

Eggs began to randomly spawn on-screen in 2011, during the second year of the Easter Egg Hunt. The White Easter Egg gave five Points when clicked. [6] The only effect upon consumption was increasing a player's happiness by 50 and booster cooldown by 30 minutes. [7] All colored easter eggs with this effect were converted into Chocolate Eggs on 23 March 2023. 36,092 White Easter Eggs were changed to Chocolate Eggs in total. The White Easter Egg was also changed from a Candy item to a Booster item the same day.

Prior to the end of the 2022 Easter Egg Hunt, a full set of colored Easter Eggs could be traded in for a Gold Easter Egg, 20 Points, and the Good Friday honor while the event was running.

The White Easter Egg was the rarest colored Easter Egg by spawn rate until 2022, which caused it to be usually the most expensive of the eggs (with the exception of the Gold Easter Egg) when it could still be traded.
