Egg Hunt 2016: Eggcellent Adventure

The 2016 ROBLOX Easter Egg Hunt (titled An Eggcellent Eggventure) is the seventh annual Egg Hunt on ROBLOX. In years past, ROBLOX hosted Egg Drops in 2008 and 2010, and the first ROBLOX Egg Hunt to be held in one place was the 2012 hunt. For this egg hunt, players must hunt for eggs within a map that contains several locations such as a city, a farm, and a secret island. The players will receive a badge when an egg is found and the egg corresponding to the badge will be obtained as well. As expressed within the hunt's description, the egg hunt revolves around a leap year that has magically distributed dynamic eggs with special abilities. This is the first egg hunt since 2014 to feature fabergé eggs and is also the first egg hunt since 2013 to feature one consolidated map to navigate upon. This is also the first time a non-admin member of ROBLOX was the lead designer of an Egg Hunt, Masterbeyblade21.

The hunt was available as a BETA game with paid access. This was to test the game and fix any bugs before the official release on March 22, 2016.

Map Description:
The Egg Hunt 2016 map contains numerous unique locations to hunt for eggs. All major quadrants of the map contain a teleportation portal for easier access. The first main location that players are introduced with is a farm with harvest fields, a barn, and stables. Near the farm is a covered bridge that leads to "New Yolk City" (which is currently under construction as of the BETA version). In the opposite direction from the city and the farm is a large body of water and a docking area for boats where players can gain access to a secret island. This area also features an extensive underground mine for players to explore. If a player uses one of the boats, it will bring them to the secret island which features a graveyard and coliseum. The coliseum is the location of the dragon boss as well as the only area of the map to combat other players with swords.
