Collection guide
Break and Steal an Egg Eggs Guide
Eggs are the start of every collection run. Breaking one reveals an animal, but the best target is not always the flashiest egg; it is the best egg you can break, carry and bank consistently.
What you need to know
Choose eggs by total run value: break time, route length, guard risk and the usefulness of the resulting animal. A slightly weaker egg you can bank reliably may outperform a rare egg you repeatedly lose.
How to evaluate an egg
| Factor | Question to ask |
|---|---|
| Break time | Can your current pickaxe open it efficiently? |
| Route | How far must you carry the hatch back? |
| Guard pressure | Can you leave without getting trapped? |
| Income | Does the hatch improve your current base? |
| Consistency | Can you repeat the run without frequent losses? |
What the official artwork confirms
Current official promotional images show multiple visually distinct eggs, including rainbow, galaxy-like and lava-styled designs. Promotional art confirms the visual theme, not exact odds, prices or income rates.
Use the in-game Index as the current source for collection entries. Screenshots and tables can become stale after an update.
Efficient egg runs

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What happens when you break an egg?+
According to the official listing, breaking an egg hatches an animal that you can take back to your base.
What is the best egg?+
The live game and Index should decide that. Exact odds and values can change, so this guide does not name a permanent best egg without current evidence.
Does a rarer-looking egg always earn more?+
Not necessarily. Confirm the hatch and its current income in the live game instead of relying on appearance alone.
