Roblox Easter Egg Hunt 2013

The 2013 ROBLOX Easter Egg Hunt was the fourth annual egg hunt on ROBLOX. It ran from March 26th, 2013 to April 5th, 2013.

Previously, there were egg hunts held in 2008, 2010, and 2012. Although most of the egg hunting took place in one game, a few eggs were hidden in a few unspecified places in Roblox. At the egg hunt, players had to hunt for eggs in an all-terrain map. The players then received a badge when an egg was found. Also, the egg corresponding to the badge was also obtained. Some of the eggs hatch later and unveil exclusive items for players with the eggs. Several different items were released in the Catalog in order to assist players with the egg hunt.

The event shattered multiple records, as well as introduced several features not found in previous egg hunts. The first record broken was the amount of concurrent users at one game, with around 19,079 players being the record. The egg hunt place also became the first game to get over 2 million place visits in a week. The egg hunt also introduced the first gear-type eggs, hatched eggs, and website eggs.

The game closed (removed from Games' active places) at exactly 8:20pm EDT on Friday, April 5, 2013. The items were still on sale though, for some reason, until 9:30pm EDT. When the game closed, players refreshed to the message saying that the place was removed from Games' active places, and "[UPDATE] Egg hunt 2013 is now officially over!" in the description. The game was also removed from its permanently-first spot on the Games page at the same time.

Map Description
Like the 2012 map, the map for the 2013 Easter Egg Hunt is an all-terrain map. The map contains a large stone volcano that is adjacent to a green field with a large oak tree standing near the volcano. The volcano erupts every thirty minutes in the server. A bridge that is connected to a stone tower is attached to the field near the volcano. An urban city is perched on a few gray cliffs across the map. A waterfall divides the urban city from the volcano and grassy field, and a bridge connects the two over the waterfall. A secret cave is located behind the waterfall, and leads to a portion of the cliffs adjacent to the bridge. These cliffs overlook a grassy valley. The valley contains a group of a few small single-story houses that are in. Some of them are empty, and some contain a table holding a box of spam that launches . An evergreen forest is located on the back of the map in the valley. A large, grassy hill connects the urban city to the forest. Multiple statues that resemble the ones found on Easter Island dot the grassy hill. Several cows are found grazing on the large hill as well. An underground chamber is carved into the hill. The chamber has large urns burning in each corner of the room. Stone pillars border the room as well. The room is guarded by a large boss, who starts in the center of the room. Players must fight the boss in order to get the Deviled Egg.

Players spawn on a free-standing island that is suspended in mid-air. A series of teleporters that are shaped like the famous Stonehenge connect that island to the main map. Some of the other places that the teleporters lead to include the urban city, the base of the volcano, the field near the tower, the secret cave, and the entrance to the underground chamber. The "hub" of teleporters is located at the top of the large hill.

Eggs
These eggs were all found in the official Easter Egg Hunt 2013 map. There were twenty-five eggs in total, including three Faberge Eggs.

Faberge Eggs
These eggs were very rare, normally spawned in the cave, and (some say) spawned more often during a Cataclysmic Egg.

Special Eggs
These eggs were not found at the Easter Egg Hunt 2013 game; they were hidden in other places throughout Roblox.

Website Eggs
Website eggs were hidden throughout the Roblox website.

Studio Eggs
These eggs could only be found in ROBLOX Studio 2013.

Hatched Eggs
These are the exclusive items that hatched so far from some of the eggs.

Catalog Items
These are items that players could buy to help them in the 2013 egg hunt. The items were only activated upon the release of the Egg Hunt game, and when the player entered the game they would have any of the items they bought in thier inventory.
