A Hat in Time

The Hidden Easter Egg...
EDIT: We found it! Check the very bottom for where it is, above the 'here's the link!'

Attention all finders! We require some assistance from the community! In the Arcitc Cruise Acts 1 and 2, there's a hidden easter egg the devs left for us to find! We've been looking high and low for it for DAYS! And since the more help the better, I decided to ask the community myself to do this. SO! Here's out hints:


Obviously, in Acts 1 and 2.

Act 3 pre-sink COULD have the easter egg in it, but you'd most likely want to look for it in act 1 and 2.

It's not the Can Kicking Easter Egg, nor the Loss on the side on the Ship Easter Egg.

In the Cruise itself, so not in the little grass area in Act 1

It's theres no interaction PROMPT (like talking to an npc or picking up an item) so we've resorted to hitting, kissing, and snapping pictures of EVERYTHING!...Although since there's no prompt, that still means there could be a hidden interaction prompt somewhere, so instead talk a lot.

There's a single image related to this, which should be found in the link I'll post at the very bottom! (If you can't see it, it's simply just the Lost + Found Board about the "Have you seen THIS Egg?" Found in Murder on the Owl Express.)

While I say this, it's been confirmed that the easter egg is not an actual egg. So...Look for something egg-related?

It's something we could've already ran into, so we'll have to check a LOT!

It's unknown if it's related to the Moleman easter egg. (the clipboard in the child's room was deciphered where a child heard a mom mention moleman, and after a small arguement over who the moleman was, it was revealed it was actually Madman, which the child was.)

It's found in the same exact spot in both Acts.

It rewards Hat Kid in some way, similar to the Can Kicking Easter Egg.

APPARENTLY in Vanessa's manor, there's morse code that can be found hidden in the song that's related to the easter egg. THIS ONE WILL NEED HELP! Since I'm not too much of a listener to the song itself, and I also don't know morse code that much, someone else please tell me if you find anything in that song!

The devs have constanly been saying "yeehaw" everytime someone talks about the hint...So look for something yeehaw-ish.

Something I found out myself while listening to Death Wish is, when it's nearing it's third time around for that cool part (otherwise known as the third time it reaches into the verse that's before the ending verse of the song. I'd best prefer to hear it from GfB's official youtube channel for my best example) there's some weird whispering in the background. I highly assume it's Snatcher, but I'm not sure what he's saying. Maybe you can take a listen and find out what it is.

And (This was proven by myself) it's not about smacking the captain 50 times. I think I smacked him around 100, so there's that.


So! Hopefully we can get hunting, and I also hope some people actually find it! If you do, please share it onto here, or on the offical Hat In Time Discord, mainly in Spoilers-n-Tips. Either way, have fun hunting!



Exciting news! We've found the easter egg. The link will be below. The Easter Egg in question is in the kitchen, behind one of the cooking pots (Not sure which, but, it is in one small room, so it shouldn't be hard!) And just look for a cookie. Best to say to use the camera tool to take a look. Once you find it..I'm not sure! I believe you either just walk into it or hit your interaction button to get it. Either way, enjoy!

As said, here's the link!

There is an egg with ,,No" on it
HEY!!! There is even dialouge with this egg! This Egg told something like:cheas is old meme.After the dialouge this egg explode.


Just found this today while messing around and looks like there is already some discussion going on. Thought I'd share a recorded version of it :mafia: Pretty interesting sound effects.

This "egg" is a converted voice clip of the seal that holds the egg. And this cry of cheese from what I know is the cry of Goofy Mafia from the level of "She came from the outer space". Welp thank for the recorded version :), with this more people will know about this easter egg.

Easter egg is possibly a teaser for DLC2. Jonas posted to twitter yesterday that DLC2 was looking "wild", coupled with the fact that the devs keep yeehawing when talking abt the easter egg, hints that it might be wild west themed?

Jonas's tweet: https://twitter.com/MekuCube/status/1065660588783792128

(ok this part is kinda tinfoil hat-y but) Keeping in mind that Argle is both the creator of the cowboy hat mod (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1415984356) and the original informant for the easter egg, I installed the mod and got this response: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/325467416517804032/515704035370729472/unknown.png

However both attempting to talk to and blow up everyone on the ship (even people without visible interact triggers) yielded no results.

Also got double extra confirmation that the easter egg is in-bounds, on the boat, in acts 1 and 2.

Not sure if a hat flair would even be recognizable by the game as something that could trigger a different reaction, but I sure did have fun yeehawing around the ship.

How are you people finding these secrets? Everyone's been finding easter eggs out of bounds, videos that are unlisted, and secret triggers related to the Arctic Cruise. All I ever done was skip the trigger that makes the ship leave the port.

Didn't find anything just a random mouse that stays in the middle of random people in act 1, go to the right after you enter the level and see the mass of people there, in the front there is a
random mouse, like the ones that are in Mafia Town's casino.

I found a cookie in the kitchen. Is this the easter egg?

Jump on the shelf, and crouch. You'll get the cookie.

YOU DID IT!

The Hat In Time Discord has confirmed, this IS the easter egg. Congrats, man! I'll post this above.

Has the morse code thing been solved yet?
I found a video of someone going out of bounds in the moon and hearing a string of morse code, but they cut it off early, so all I got was "MY EYES BURN RED LIKE BL-"
I could decipher the whole thing, but I need to hear the whole thing.
