The Easter Egg Hunt has landed in 99 Nights in the Forest, and it is not a simple "walk around and grab shiny things" event. Eggs are scattered across multiple biomes, some require puzzle-solving, some demand boss kills, and a few will genuinely catch you off guard the first time. This guide covers every egg location, how to unlock each one, and exactly how to spend your currency before the shop closes.
How Does the Easter Egg Hunt Work
Before anything else, head to the Easter event area and pick up the Egg Basket. Think of it as a second inventory pouch dedicated entirely to this event. Without it, you cannot collect or submit eggs at all.
The basket holds up to 12 eggs at a time, so you will need to make regular trips back to deposit your haul. Submission happens at the giant Easter Bunny statue in the event area. Here is where the currency system gets interesting: submitting an egg type you have never turned in before rewards 10 Eggs (the event currency), while handing in a duplicate only gives 1 Egg. That means diversity pays. Hunting the same easy egg over and over is a slow grind compared to tracking down new types.

All 11 egg locations and how to get them
There are 11 known eggs in the current Easter event. Some are straightforward pickups, others involve multi-step tasks that can trip up players who go in blind.
Tips for the trickier eggs
A few eggs deserve extra attention because players consistently miss the steps involved.
Volcano Egg: You need to sacrifice exactly 8 Easter Volcano Cultists in the volcano biome. These are not the same as standard cultists, so make sure you are targeting the Easter-themed variants specifically.
Alien Egg: You cannot just walk into the UFO. You must physically bring a Bunny Alien Cultist to the scan point inside. Getting one of these enemies to cooperate takes patience, especially in a busy server.
Ice Egg: Two-stage process. First break the ice block containing the egg, then carry it to a fire source to melt it before you can submit. Dropping it in water by accident resets the whole thing.
Cooked Egg: Requires a Crock Pot and 3 regular eggs. If your base does not have a Crock Pot yet, build one before hunting the other eggs so it is ready when you need it.

The event source notes that this guide was marked as a Work-In-Progress as of launch. Two egg entries (Lantern and Fishing) remain unconfirmed. Stats and locations may shift as the developers push additional patches.
Easter Event Rewards
All collected Eggs feed into the Easter Shop in the lobby. The shop only accepts Easter Eggs as currency. Regular in-game money does not apply here.
The Egg Hunter class at 30 Eggs is the obvious first purchase. It is specifically designed to improve your egg-finding efficiency, which means buying it early pays dividends across the rest of the event. Spending your first 30 Eggs here rather than on furniture is the correct call for anyone planning to grind the full shop.
After that, the Egg Topiary at 20 Eggs is the cheapest furniture piece and a low-cost way to fill out your lobby space. The Hot Egg Balloon and Golden Carrot both sit at 80 Eggs each, while the two pet skins require 100 and 120 Eggs respectively. Unlocking everything costs 430 Eggs total, which is a significant ask in a 13-day window.
