From mid-April through early May, the mobile puzzler Neopets: Faerie Fragments transformed into a pastel dreamscape with its first-ever Enchanted Egg Hunt—a limited-time spring event that combines classic match-3 puzzles with whimsical egg hatching and a brand-new Tower Mode. Whether you’re chasing high scores or just here for the seasonal vibes, this event has something for everyone.
What Is the Enchanted Egg Hunt?
The Enchanted Egg Hunt is a special in-game event that launched in April and runs for about a month. The moment you log in during the event window, you’re part of the action—no extra sign-ups needed. Players are invited to complete match-3 levels, collect special event currency (Bronze Coins), and unlock a Hatchery filled with magical eggs that evolve into adorable companions.
The event also introduces a unique Tower Mode—a progressive series of increasingly difficult stages that reward persistent players with exclusive loot and leaderboards bragging rights.
How Enchanted Egg Hunt Works
Here’s a breakdown of the core features:
🥚 Bronze Coins
Each match-3 level you clear during the event rewards you with Bronze Coins. The better your score and combos, the more coins you earn. These coins can be spent in the event shop on exclusive cosmetics, resources, and—of course—the coveted Jorett Plushie.
🐣 Hatchery
The Hatchery is where things get charming. As you collect special event eggs, you can hatch them over time into unique faerie-themed creatures. Some of these even offer gameplay bonuses, like passive buffs in Tower Mode or small coin bonuses after completing stages.
🗼 Tower Mode
A new addition just for the Egg Hunt, Tower Mode is a linear gauntlet of puzzles that gets progressively harder. Completing levels here also grants bonus event rewards. It’s a great way to burn extra energy if you’ve already cleared the daily rotation.
Enchanted Egg Hunt Prizes
| Threshold | Free Track | Premium Track |
|---|---|---|
| 0 Coins | Avatar frame | 100 Coins booster |
| 3000 Coins | Jorett Plushie (cross-site item) | Same plushie + extra boosters |
| 5000 Coins | 30-min unlimited lives | 3000 Coins bundle |
The plushie is automatically mailed to the linked Neopets.com account once redeemed; earlier delivery glitches were patched on April 17.
Tips to Maximize Your Rewards
- Focus on combos: Chaining large matches rewards significantly more coins than just scraping by with level completion.
- Check in daily: Daily login bonuses include eggs, hatching items, and coin bundles.
- Prioritize egg hatching: Some eggs take hours to hatch—start them early to make sure you don’t miss out on your full collection.
- Tower Mode on weekends: Tower Mode tends to offer boosted rewards on Saturdays and Sundays, so save your energy for then.
Conclusion
The Enchanted Egg Hunt is more than just a spring-themed side activity—it’s a carefully designed event that adds depth, charm, and progression to Faerie Fragments. Whether you’re in it for the competition, the collection, or just to admire pastel Neopia, it’s well worth diving in before it disappears for another year.
Now get matching, hatching, and collecting—your plushie prize awaits.
