Due to how the Festival of Eggs will be run, we will not have prompts listed ahead of time. To view the prompts in real time please join the Discord. Since the minimum required books is 3, that is what is required to complete this challenge, but if you prefer a challenge, you must read at least 6 books.

Here is the list of currently revealed prompts (updated 3/28):
  • Book with Flowers on the Cover
  • Book with a Sword or Dagger on the Cover

Rules: 
  • For the Egg Hunt, you will be required to find books 'scavenger hunt' style. You will be given a prompt at random intervals throughout the month and you will need to find books that fit that prompt.
  • You can use 1 book for multiple prompts if the same book happens to fit more than 1 prompt.
  • Easy Mode: To receive the Golden Pumpkin, you will need to read at least 3 of the books you find. You can receive both the Golden Pumpkin and Prize Ticket if you read at least 6 books. 
  • Hard Mode: You do not have to read all the books you find. However, to receive the Prize Ticket, you will need to need to read at least 6 of the books you find during the month. 
  • DNF and books started before the month are allowed as long as you've read at least 50% in the month. Books must be minimum 100 pages.
  • You do not need to find every single egg/book during the month. Do as many as is fun for you.
