As I was facebooking and staring at my applications, I discovered a trend. I'm so surprised that it didn't occur to me earlier. Somehow, facebook players seem to like games involving eggs. There are tons of applications out there that has something to do with eggs.
Hatchlings - You find eggs around other people's profile and hatch them into creature pets and feed them with subsequent eggs you find.
Hatchery - You get eggs (either by buying or having friends to send some to you) and you hatch them into baby monsters which will grow. You have to feed them, play with them, clean them and make sure they are warm. Something like tamagochi.
Egg Breaker - Where you get hammers and break eggs to uncover treasures/trash inside the eggs.
Hatching Eggs - Where you send eggs to others (or yourself if you are deprived) and something will hatch out of it. It could be animals, babies, flowers or whatever nonsense they can come up with.
And I am sure whatever I just listed above are not comprehensive. They are just one small tip of the iceberg. So, why is there the obsession with eggs? I know they are good to eat and goes well with anything and everything but they are also bad for health for their high cholestrol level.
Don't take me wrong, I have nothing against all these games. I love them infact. They are the ones that keep me going through everyday in the office. I'm just wondering why the trend. ???
