Festival of Neggs 2025

[Pickles]

So this was in the news today:

The Festival of Neggs is coming soon! While Kari may still be grey, nothing will stop her from putting together another great festival! With new Neggs and lots of fun prizes, this event is bound to be tons of fun!
There will be extra prizes for our Premium members and a mystery to solve for all! From April 10th through April 19th (4/10 - 4/19), check in daily for new clues and a chance at exciting items!

Naia is ready for another colourful Dip & Dye Neggs NC Event! Visit her during the Festival of Neggs starting on April 10th (4/10) with new items becoming available every day until April 22nd (4/22)!
Stay tuned for more information in the coming days!

It looks like this year it's going to be significantly shorter: 9 days (maybe 10) instead of 15+.

Ignore the rest of this post for now, I'll update it when we get more information.

After Kari picks them up, Ellia smiles and hands her a note.
"Huh, this is strange... it's addressed to me and the festival goers. Be sure to read it before picking which Negg you'd like!"
The note reads:
"Don't bother looking for the Neggs where the other shopkeepers helped you hide them. I have them now! More info to come soon. "

Day 2: Cog's Togs
You find the stash of Neggs underneath a few cogs!
Kari quickly picks them up. "We solved it! It's fun being on the other side of this with you. But don't worry, you can still pick whichever Negg you would like!"
There's a note with the Neggs:
"Did you know that the Petpet known as the Tuffala was first discovered nearby underneath the Moltara Obsidian Co. building?"

Scenes Text:

Kari may be grey, but she is not out! She's ready to give the first clue. Think you have what it takes to solve it?
Scene 1
Kari:Hello. I'm glad to see so many festival goers this year. I know things have been hectic around Neopia, but seeing everyone gather for celebrations such as this warms my heart.
I do have to apologise, though. With Orion in his current state and Mira out in space, I wasn't able to go as big for this year's festivities as I would have liked.
However, thanks to many kind shopkeepers who volunteered to help out, all the Neggs were created and hidden just in time.
So with that, let the Festival of Neggs begin. Visit me again when you're ready for your first clue.

Scene 2
Kari: I'm sorry, I know this isn't what you signed up for when joining the festival, but it looks like we have mystery on our hands! Another note from the peculiar thief was left here.
It reads: "No need to worry, no need to fear. The Neggs are all quite safe here! I'll leave you a clue each day so that you too can join in the play! And for those quite smart, that solve them as quick as a dart, remember that for every phrase I turn, there is a bigger pattern! Can you guess who I am before the event ends and I have to scram?"
Hmm, that's odd... Well, the next clue is on the back of the note. So when you're ready, we can try and solve it together. How fun.

NC Neggs:

?????
Similar to last year, you don't get a separate NC negg to do something to; they're all available automatically. There are three different neggs you can can buy dye kits for: ?????. You can buy the kits individually for 650NC, or all three for 1500NC (savings of 450NC). Kits will be available to use until next year's event start, but are only on sale through May 11, 2022. Alternatively, you can buy a single dye kit that will allow you to get a single prize from your chosen negg. (I believe you're able to pick which item, just not the bonus item.)
Ticket 15-Pack

Yay! Neggfest!

[Siniri]

Thanks for the heads up! It's nice to get a bit of warning instead of having to scramble at bedtime after something starts after I already did my dailies for the day.

[Pickles]

The event has started. I am gathering info on the available neggs and prizes from the neoboards. It'll take me a few to get it updated as I've got to track down item images, etc, etc.

Grumpy rant:

I have lots of feelings about the items available and the items that were rereleased. Overall, I was hoping for some fun stuff...but I'm generally disappointed. There are literally no new actual negg items that have been found so far for the daily negg prizes. Maybe they'll at least throw us negg collectors a bone and give us the set of neggs as final prizes? At least then I'll be able to add SOMETHING to my gallery this year. And they've devalued 4 items in my gallery...as if that hasn't taken a hit enough in the last year with all the once-expensive neggs that are now worth nothing. Oh, and the NC portion looks like it had only one negg-related item...the completion bonus gift box, which of course, I can't trade for. Sigh. Don't mind me. I'm just grumpy because my usually favorite event of the year is not looking as exciting as it could've been.

Yay. Neggfest.

Actually guessed the correct store by number on the first try.

Day 1: Fortune Negg, Time Travel Negg, Goth Negg

Hmm. Goth.

Goth Marching Hat
Black Alabriss Wings


I am assuming that there is a Premium "bonus" prize, or the Premium gets two...? Cannot say which is which, though.

My rant...

Not super excited about Neggfest right now, either. To be honest, not terribly excited about much of anything right now. Too much to do, not enough time or desire to do them. Neggfest is "one more thing on the pile of things to do", even though it is only a few minutes each day for a while. Forced myself to go out late last night and do something lingering before others messed it up before I could get to it. This is after finding a "whaaaat? What. Happened. Here.?" situation and then trying to get info as to what happened, why it happened and how we got to where we are.... Mission accomplished. Felt good, but now rather tired because I did not want to hit the hay for a couple hours after I got back home.

[Pickles]

Got all the prize names from the neoboards and updated the first post. Working on images. I have no idea how to get the negg images. I looked through the code but there's no image urls that I can see.

Day 1: Papercraft, Goth, or Time Travel
Chose: Papercraft:
Overstamped Stamp
Bullet Journalling Foreground

At least I got the new stamp on my first day? Yay? First thing that has gone right today.

ETA: Found the image URL for at least one negg on the clues page. I can probably make educated guesses to find the rest.

ETA2: Found the rest of them. First post is up to date.

[Siniri]

Time travel, paper craft, or hatchling... Going for a stamp with paper...

and TNT played rock! Paper covers rock! And I am now the owner of a fine paper craft stamp. Sweet.

[Pickles]

Congrats, Siniri!

There will not likely be a new clue tomorrow (4/11). I just found this article that has some interesting information in it. It also has all five neggs right next to each other, which would've been a heck of a lot easier for me to get the image URLs from earlier, but...oh well. I still found them earlier.

I will update the first post sometime tomorrow with the relevant FAQ info, etc, but in brief:
There will be a bonus for finding all neggs on release day, but day 1 is 2 days long. The participation prize will include a new avatar. It doesn't look like we'll have much in the way of dialogue this year aside from the text that's included when you find neggs (which thankfully, I grabbed today and put with the answers, as it struck me as unusual). I really ought to read the FAQs before hand, but...life has been so frustrating lately that it just didn't happen.

[Blue]

Correct... No new clue today (4/11)

[Pickles]

New clue today. Sorry I haven't had a chance to get the first post update with the FAQ info. Maybe this afternoon.
Day 2: Time Travel, Papercraft, Goth
Chose: Papercraft
