The 2026 Easter Event in 99 Nights in the Forest added 13 collectible eggs across two parts, but the Firefly Egg and Easter Bunny's Egg — both introduced in Part 2 on April 4, 2026 — stand out because neither can be handed to the Easter Bunny NPC right away. One needs to be charged by fireflies at night, and the other triggers a dangerous chase sequence with a new hostile entity. Here's exactly how to get both and what you earn for turning them in.
Quick answer: Find the Firefly Egg in a Firefly Cage, then drag it near firefly orbs at night until it's fully charged. For the Easter Bunny's Egg, interact with the map inside the Easter Building, travel to the Evil Bunny Hut, steal the egg, and sprint back to the campfire before the Evil Bunny catches you. Each egg rewards 10 Easter Eggs currency, and the Easter Bunny's Egg also gives a Ruby Chest.
Firefly Egg — Location, Charging, and Submission
The Firefly Egg always spawns inside a Firefly Cage somewhere on the map. You can pick it up and place it in your Easter Basket for easier carrying, but the Easter Bunny NPC will not accept it in its uncharged state. The egg must be powered up by fireflies first.
Step 1: Locate a Firefly Cage during your run. These cages can appear in various map areas, so keep an eye out while exploring. Grab the egg and store it in your Easter Basket.
Step 2: Wait for nighttime. Fireflies only appear after dark, typically spawning as glowing orbs around forested areas of the map.
Step 3: Take the egg out of your basket and drag it through the firefly spheres that appear around you. Continue moving the egg near fireflies until it is fully charged — you'll notice a visual change on the egg when it's ready.
Step 4: Return to the Easter Bunny NPC and submit the charged Firefly Egg. You'll receive 10 Easter Eggs currency, which can be spent in the Easter Shop in the lobby.
Easter Bunny's Egg — Theft Sequence and Evil Bunny Chase
Unlike every other egg in the event, the Easter Bunny's Egg is obtained through a scripted event chain that ends with a high-speed chase. It cannot be found lying around the map.
Step 1: Head to the Easter Building near the campfire and go inside. Interact with the map on the wall. This reveals the location of the Evil Bunny Hut somewhere on your current map.
Step 2: Travel to the Evil Bunny Hut. Walk up to the egg inside and select the "Steal" prompt. The egg will be placed on your character's back automatically.
Step 3: The moment you steal the egg, the Evil Bunny chase begins. You need to run back to the campfire while the Evil Bunny pursues you. Successfully reaching the campfire completes the event and awards a Ruby Chest plus 10 Easter Eggs currency.
Evil Bunny Entity — Spawn Conditions and Survival
The Evil Bunny is a hostile entity recognizable by its glowing red eyes and extreme movement speed. It appears in two situations during the Easter event. The first is the chase triggered by stealing the Easter Bunny's Egg, described above. The second is by killing 25 normal bunnies during a run, which causes an event message warning that something dangerous has spawned on the map.
In both cases, the Evil Bunny is faster than you in a straight sprint. The most reliable survival tactic is to head for elevated terrain or tight spaces where the entity struggles to follow. Environmental positioning matters far more than raw speed here — plan your escape route before you steal the egg.
Easter Egg Rewards for Firefly Egg and Easter Bunny's Egg
| Egg | Currency Reward | Bonus Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Firefly Egg | 10 Easter Eggs | None |
| Easter Bunny's Egg | 10 Easter Eggs | Ruby Chest |
Collecting any egg type for the first time also grants a one-time +10 bonus Easter Eggs on top of the standard reward. Subsequent submissions of the same egg type give a preset, smaller amount.
Easter Shop Part 2 — What to Spend Eggs On
Easter Eggs currency earned from all 13 egg types can be spent in the Easter Shop, accessible through a pink portal in the game lobby. Part 2 added the following items alongside the Part 1 offerings.
| Item | Cost | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Bunny | 900 Eggs | Class (limited-time) |
| Gem Pack | 100 Eggs | Diamond Pack |
| Bunny Foot Rug | 20 Eggs | Furniture |
| Carrot Caravan | 60 Eggs | Furniture |
| Easter Alpha Wolf | 140 Eggs | Pet Skin |
| Easter Bearny | 200 Eggs | Pet Skin |
The Bunny class is the most expensive item at 900 Eggs. It's a limited-time mobility class that grants night vision, increased jump height, and speed boosts from eating carrots. It starts with 40 Carrot Darts and can be upgraded to Level 3 through the Classes shop by consuming carrots during gameplay — 200 carrots for Level 2 and 400 more for Level 3. The class will disappear from the shop once the Easter event ends.
Efficient Egg Farming Tips
If you're grinding toward the 900-egg Bunny class, efficiency matters. Converting three Basic Eggs into a Cooked Egg via the Crock Pot yields 4 Eggs plus 3 Cooked Ribs, which is better than submitting the three Basic Eggs individually for only 3 Eggs. However, if you're using the Egg Hunter class from Part 1, submitting the three Basic Eggs directly gives 6 Eggs total, making that the more efficient route for Egg Hunter players.
Both the Firefly Egg and Easter Bunny's Egg are repeatable, so you can farm them across multiple runs. The Easter Bunny's Egg is particularly valuable because it also drops a Ruby Chest each time you complete the chase. Just make sure you plan your route back to the campfire before triggering the Evil Bunny — getting caught in the open with no cover nearby is the most common way to fail the sequence.
