Get ready! We hid 10 Golden Dodos across the Crunch and it is your job to find them all!
This one does not count. This golden boy is an example.
- Hunt down all 10 golden Dodos hidden throughout the 500th Crunch.
- For each Dodo, take a screenshot of clearly showing the Golden Dodo's location.
- Once you’ve found them all, submit your 10 screenshots as proof in a private thread in the dedicated channels on the Official ARK Discord.
The first 10 Survivors to successfully find and submit proof of all 10 Golden Dodos will receive a key of their choice for an already existing product or the next Fantastic Tame!
- Players can't collaborate.
- Thread must be private (and stay private).

500 Weeks of You!
Across every map, every update, every new beginning, there’s been one constant: the ARK community. Five hundred Community Crunches later, that still hasn’t changed. This space has always belonged as much to you as it has to us.
Over the years, this space has become a weekly snapshot of your creativity, your stories, and the moments that make ARK what it is.
To celebrate Community Crunch #500, we’ve pulled together some of our favourite community art and creations from across the years. A small reflection of the passion, talent, and chaos that’s defined this community since the beginning.
Because while we’ve been the ones hitting publish each week, the best parts have always come from you.
Cheers, Survivors, and here’s to 500 more!
