2013 ROBLOX Easter Egg Hunt was the fourth annual egg hunt on Roblox. The place was made by the user Games, and the event ran from March 26, 2013, to April 5, 2013.
Previously, there were egg drops held in 2008, 2010, and an egg hunt in 2012, which makes the 2013 Egg Hunt the first ROBLOX Easter Egg activity in released on a yearly basis, as well as the first one held on an odd-numbered year. Although most of the egg hunting took place in one game, a few eggs were hidden in a few unspecified places on Roblox. The players received badges when eggs were found. Also, the egg corresponding to the badge was also obtained. Some of the eggs hatched and unveiled exclusive items for players with the eggs.[1] Several different items were released in the marketplace in order to assist players with the egg hunt.
The event shattered multiple records, and 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. This Egg Hunt is notable for introducing gear-type eggs, hatched eggs, Studio eggs and website eggs. Overall, the Egg Hunt garnered acclaim from users and is often considered to be one of Roblox's best events.
The event was soon rebooted by several other people after CloneTrooper0450 made his version uncopylocked, with notable versions being created by KieranIsHome and Reset2019437; however, both of their versions were made private at some point. Fortunately, it was rebooted again by 0Edric0 in early 2022 after other versions became broken. His version of the reboot can be played here.
Map description[]
The map was designed by Roblox admin Luke Weber (Stickmasterluke). Like the 2012 map, the 2013 Easter Egg Hunt took place on a single consolidated map instead of concurrently across every game. The map contained a large stone volcano that was adjacent to a green field with a large oak tree standing near the volcano. The volcano erupted every hour in the server. A bridge that was connected to a stone tower was attached to the field near the volcano. An urban city was perched on a few gray cliffs across the map. A waterfall divided the urban city from the volcano and grassy field, and a bridge connected the two over the waterfall. A secret cave was located behind the waterfall, and led to a portion of the cliffs adjacent to the bridge. These cliffs overlooked a grassy valley. The valley contained a few small single-story houses. Some of them were empty, and some contained tables holding boxes of Spam. An evergreen forest was located on the back of the map in the valley. A large, grassy hill connected the urban city to the forest. Multiple Mo'ai that resembled the ones found on Easter Island dotted the grassy hill. Several cows were found grazing on the large hill as well. An underground chamber was carved into the hill. The chamber had large urns burning in each corner of the room. Stone pillars bordered the room as well. The room was guarded by a large boss, who started in the center of the room. Players had to fight the boss in order to get the Deviled Egg.
Players spawned on a free-standing island that is suspended in mid-air. A series of teleporters that were shaped like the famous Stonehenge connected that island to the main map. Some of the other places that the teleporters led to included 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 was located at the top of the large hill.
