Trivia

This is the first ever Giftsplosion where the basic 2013 gift mesh wasn't used once.
The Volatile Gift of Explosive Cheer was accidentally put onsale for free and did not have a limited tag when it first released. This was reverted a few minutes later.
The mammoth cave has several easter eggs hidden within it, including Bomb from Angry Birds, a seal, Sid from Ice Age, the Macaroni Pegguin from Egg Hunt 2025: The Great Voyegge.
The badgers on the Neverending Gift of the Badger, Badger, Badger are animated, doing the arm waving move from the music video.
The Radical Stunt Racing Helmet's appearance and description is a likely reference to Lightning McQueen from the Cars franchise.
The Aurora Gift of Difficult Perseverance has the highest price a gift could have by far, being 50,000.
- If you count this, it is beaten by The Meanspirited Gift of Pettiness by a mile, with the price of whopping 69,420,067,067.
There is a secret badge within the game for the Cursed Gift of Memento Mori that requires you to find a secret NPC named "Crampus". (the tutorial to get this badge can be found here.)
Theres a hidden text on the game within for the Cursed Gift of Memento Mori that is hidden near the gift of the cliff fall.
The Cursed Gift of Memento Mori is the third gift themed after Santa's Winter Stronghold.
- It followed Santa's Gift of Winter Stronghold from 2023, and the Unfortunate Gift of Stronghold Nightmares from 2024.
The reason you had to type "bad banana" into the search bar for The Meanspirited Gift of Pettiness is a direct reference to the song You're a Mean One, Mr Grinch.
Formerly, there was a badge called Gift Campaigner. It was released alongside the Secrets of the Mammoth, Sight Seeing and Laboratory Introductions badges, however, it was never made obtainable and was later deleted. The reason is unknown.
the paintbrush of creation is a ROBLOX Gear from the Imagination (2018) event .

Criticisms & Controversies

There had been a number of reports from users claiming that they've tried getting the Crystalised Gift of Discovery. Despite doing the correct steps, the suspected users have not been able to get the gift. This was confirmed by cristiano100 to be fixed a day before the gift opened.
When the Neverending Gift of the Badger, Badger, Badger had launched, users had experienced bugs in certain games. Most notably Mini Kart 64 and Generic Fighting Place: RESCRIPTED. Both developers received complaints and even harassments.
The Aurora Gift of Difficult Perseverance on release had been very poorly received by the community due to how time consuming it could be to even get 5 badges out of the 16 badges. In addition, many players reported that although they collected at least 5 badges like the gift states, they would not be awarded the gift. (some were also concerned that it was possibly going to have the same issues as the badgers gift, in which most of the games were be buggy and/or unfinished.)
Some players were also upset that the obtainment method of certain gifts was not fixed before being taken offsale, forcing them to either buy them with Retrobux, or missing the gift of that day.
