Major Bug Fix


Hi reef keepers,

Some of you ran into problems when buying eggs over the last few days. Thank you for reporting them, and sorry for the trouble! This update fixes the issues with both ways of buying eggs.

Buying eggs with points

  • Egg incubators now fill up inside the game, so an egg is ready to buy as soon as its incubator is full.
  • Your first egg purchase no longer makes you wait.
  • If Steam doesn't respond, the game automatically tries the purchase again.
  • If a purchase can't be completed, your points are given back automatically.

Buying eggs from the Steam Item Store

  • Eggs you buy in the Steam Item Store now appear in the game once you finish the checkout in the Steam overlay.
  • Item Store prices are shown in your own currency.

How to get the fix


Steam downloads the update automatically. If the game was running, simply restart it. If an egg you paid for still doesn't show up, restart the game once so it reloads your Steam inventory, and let us know in the discussions if the problem continues.

Thank you for playing Idle Reef and for helping us make it better!
