Easter Eggs
There are four physical Easter Eggs you can earn or find in the game (actual decorative eggs to add to your inventory.)
Egg 1: In the Sheep barn, if you open and close the stove 7 times in a row, you’ll earn this egg.
Egg 2: At the caves, if you use an already-acquired Easter egg on the firepit, you’ll earn this egg.
Egg 3: In the puzzle palace, if you play Monster and/or Raid! five times, you will earn this egg.
Egg 4: This egg is only acquired in the BONUS Edition of the game. If you hold an already-acquired egg as your cursor and approach the auction house in the center field, a new Easter egg will be available for purchase for 5 points.
