The Medical Egg is the third egg in Egg, Inc.
Lore[]
With Superfood Egg excitement still in the air, exploration of the chicken genome was further funded. Eventually, they found that certain chickens laid eggs with healing properties, which became Medical Eggs. They entered human trials that proved to be promising and were approved for over-the-counter use. As Medical Egg research continued, people discovered that they cured migraines, arthritis, the cold, the flu, zika, and some cancers. World economies were booming.
At one point, a newspaper claims COVID-19 is eliminated using a remedy formed from Medical Egg yolk.
Appearance[]
Medical Eggs are glossy and dual-colored, white on top and red on the bottom, like a pill caplet. They have 'EGG BATCH - 0002 - R32B' stamped on them.
Due to poor image quality, the stamped text is contentious. It can be seen as 'EGG BATCH - 00012 - R329', however this is not verifiable without a higher quality image.
The old Medical Egg was all white aside from the red cross in the center.
Trivia[]
- The picture for Medical Eggs was changed in update 1.4.1 from a simple white egg with a red cross on it to its present look. The image is still present in the game with all of the other eggs. This change was due to a violation of the Geneva Conventions, "The emblem of the red cross on a white ground... shall not be used either in time of peace or in time of war, except to protect or to indicate the medical formations and establishments and the personnel and material protected by the Convention."
- This is one of the only eggs where a 512x512 image is not available.
