Latest revision as of 21:00, 18 July 2026
The Egg Throwing Game is a short Halloween game, featuring Strong Bad egging trick-or-treaters. Accessible by clicking "play a game while u wait?" at the Homestarloween Party loading screen, "Egg Throwing Game" was made to help viewers pass the time waiting for the relatively large (for 2000) toon to load on slower connections. The game is very simple: it can be played endlessly as there is no way to win or lose, and it can simply be exited by clicking "play the toon" once loading is complete.
Gameplay
By clicking the egg labeled "throw", Strong Bad throws an egg at passing trick-or-treaters dressed as ghosts. Three appear at a time, running behind the fence at various speeds. If the hit connects, a honking sound effect plays and the player is awarded 50 points (hitting two trick-or-treaters with one egg will award 100 points). Only one egg can be thrown at a time; clicking "throw" while an egg is already in motion will restart its path rather than launching a second egg. Eggs are in infinite supply, and there is only a single level to play.
Fun Facts
- A screenshot of the game with a high score of 203,850 is seen in the Museum Fan Stuff page, sent by fan Chris Kantus. Achieving this score would require hitting 4,077 of the trick-or-treaters, an effort that the description jokes would take "2 whole days".
