The 2016 ROBLOX Easter Egg Hunt (titled Egg Hunt 2016: An Eggcellent Adventure) was the seventh annual Egg Hunt on ROBLOX. In the past years, 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 had to hunt for eggs within a map that contains several locations such as a city, a farm, and a secret island. The players would receive a badge when an egg was 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 Egg Hunt saw the return of Fabergé eggs after their absence in 2015, and is also the first egg hunt since 2013 to feature one consolidated map. With the game itself being developed by HawaiianSnowman, this is also the second Egg Hunt after 2015 to not be primarily developed by Roblox administrators. This Egg Hunt featured 26 total eggs, but only 24 eggs were obtainable per each player due to players only being able to obtain one of the three nesting eggs. However, some players managed to obtain all three eggs by deleting the nesting egg badges during beta testing; this was later patched. This game also marked the beginning of eggs primarily based around "quests", with few eggs simply spawning randomly. This theme has carried onward to each successive Egg Hunt.

The hunt was available as a BETA game with 450 ROBUX paid access. This was to test the game and fix any bugs before the official release on March 22, 2016.

Following the conclusion of the Egg Hunt on April 4, 2016, players can no longer earn hats, however, the original place is still active and playable.

On February 11, 2020, the creator HawaiianSnowman temporarily closed the game down to fix bugs. The game was later reopened.

About the game[]

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". 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.

However, some criticized some of the eggs for being too difficult to find or obtain, and for some of them being very rare. At the same time, users have criticized the event for the high amount of minor glitches and bugs that interrupted small portions of gameplay.
