August 2026 Badges

Your Guild can earn monthly badges by reaching certain levels in Gauntlet Games. But remember, you only get a badge (and rewards) if the whole guild reaches that level. In August, there are six badges up for grabs, and with each progressing badge you’ll earn an emblem showing how far you made it through that month’s Gauntlet! Here’s a sneak peek at the Level 5 badge:

 

*The Doge Pup tPOB will be available to claim as a special trade in the Premium section of the redeem store beginning August 3rd. Cost will be 0 zeds (that’s right, ZERO zeds). The Doge Pup will be auto-deployed on your account when redeemed.

Need a Wishing Well near you??? Click here for help on how to get one.

Older (but still important) reminders:

QRates must be found during the current gauntlet game (after 00:10 on August 3rd) — give the system a few minutes to fully switch into the new game.

#MunzeeOn

Note: Gauntlet Game requirements may update before August 3 and we reserve the right to do so. The final requirements and rewards will always be shown in the app.

If you read all the way to the bottom, here is a Pro Reward Tip just for YOU!

Check out the redeem options on CuppaZee Gardens. If you don’t like the physical items received this month, many can be swapped to virtual deploys in gardens. Or trade them in the Redeem store.
For those players who want more physical deploys in your area to attract bouncers, keep those physical credits and deploy them! #PlayYourWay (within the Code of Conduct 😜)
There are many more options available to help you meet Gauntlet Games requirements this month if you search for them! Good luck!

🦅 August Gargoyle 🪽

Don’t let that sweet smile fool you, a sly new Gargoyle is ready to make its debut! Hailing from the United Kingdom, the NEW Fox-Goyle can be yours by keeping up your capture streak throughout August!

If you complete your July capture streak, you’ll receive the Eag-Goyle Skin (and corresponding badge) in early August. Read on to learn more about this clever new addition to the Gargoyle family!

August Gargoyle Reminders

If you haven’t picked up a base Gargoyle yet, they are available in the Freeze Tag Store for $6.

As a reminder, this is how to have a permanent Gargoyle on your account next year:

  • Own at least 8 Gargoyles by the end of the year.
    • Each month, the price of a Gargoyle will decrease by $1.
    • However, players can only purchase 1 Gargoyle every 28 days.

August Gargoyle Details

What Gargoyle awaits in August? The Fox-Goyle, a sly new guardian inspired by the clever red fox! With sharp ears, fluffy wings, and a sweet smile that may be hiding a few tricks, this woodland watcher is ready to sneak into your collection. It is a temporary POB that will remain on the map as long as the players with permanent Gargoyles continue to use it.

Fox-Goyle
Points
  • Stone Gargoyle
    • Deploy: 500
    • Capture: 250
    • CapOn: 300
  • Cracking Gargoyle
    • Capture: 250
      CapOn: 300
  • Freed Gargoyle
    • Capture: 300
    • Stone Gargoyle Deployer ONLY (Main Gargoyle Owner):
      • Deploy: 500
      • CapOn: 600
    • Cracking Gargoyle Capper ONLY (Temp Gargoyle Co-Owner):
      • CapOn: 300
Additional Info
  • Available for multi-capture
  • Non-blastable
  • Attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets
  • Filters: “All Limited-Edition Specials” and “All Expiring Specials”

As stated earlier, you’ll need to complete next month’s (August’s) capture streak to earn this skin. Once the skin is awarded in September, you can change the skin on the Gargoyle to this one at any point! If you need some help refer to our Help Guide article for the instructions on swapping skins!

You can find this striking statue at the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Remember, instead of scatters, Gargoyles introduce a new dual-ownership mechanic which will benefit both deployers and cappers!

  • After 4 captures, the Stone Gargoyle will turn into a Cracking Gargoyle
  • After 1 more capture, the Cracking Gargoyle will turn into a Freed Gargoyle, which is owned by both the deployer AND capper! This means both players will earn CapOn points!
    • NOTE: Only the Main Gargoyle Owner will get credit for the deploy. The Temporary Co-Owner will not see a deploy on their side, but instead will see earned CapOn points whenever the co-owned bouncer is captured.
  • After 5 captures, the Freed Gargoyle will turn back into a Stone Gargoyle

Badges

As a reminder, Gargoyles will have 4 associated badge lines:

  • Unique type deploy badges — you’ll need to earn each month’s skin by keeping your streak up!
  • Unique type capture badges — capture at least 1 of each skinned Gargoyle!
  • Overall deploy badges — the more Gargoyles you deploy, the merrier!
  • Overall capture badges — capture as many Gargoyles as you can find!

Check out the unique deploy and capture badges linked with the Fox-Goyle below!

Free the Fox-Goyle and you’ll have a clever companion ready to outfox the skies!

🦜🗼 Player-Designed Coastal Creations BVGs 🌊☂️

Get ready to make waves, because another exciting collection of Bouncing Virtual Gardens is on the horizon! This beach-inspired lineup is packed with sunset skies, colorful coastlines, and seaside adventures, bringing a splash of summer to the map. Even better, we’re once again giving everyone a full 24-hour heads-up before these BVGs go live, so you’ll have plenty of time to coordinate, purchase, and prepare before the bouncing begins!

This wave is extra special, as all four BVGs are based on real player-designed gardens originally created for Garden of the Month! Congratulations to the talented creators whose designs have been transformed into Bouncing Virtual Gardens for players everywhere to enjoy. Whether you’re relaxing beneath the Rainbow Umbrella BVG, watching the tides roll in with the Sunset Wave BVG, guiding ships home with the Lighthouse BVG, or soaring into adventure with the Parrot BVG, there’s a little coastal fun waiting for everyone. Once the gardens begin bouncing on Wednesday, July 29th, they’ll remain on the move for 6 weeks, ending on Thursday, September 10th at 23:59 MHQ!

As before, each garden will launch at a different time to give players around the world a fair shot at deploying. A single Bouncing Virtual pin costs $5.00, and each player may purchase up to 1 BVC per garden. Check out this pin that received 454 caps from one of the first BVG sold. That’s 22,700 CapOn points in just over 6 weeks from a single deploy!

Once all BVGs go live, you’ll be able to find them all in the Bouncing Virtual Gardens Collection here: https://store.freezetag.com/collections/bouncing-virtual-gardens

👀 BVG Sneak Peek!

Remember that you can earn a badge for capturing all the pins in a BVG, each shown below:

⏰ BVG Launch Schedule

DEADLINE: Since BVGs must be full before they can start to bounce, we will automatically fill all remaining open BVG spots above with staff account deploys after Thursday, July 30th at 11:45 MHQ! These BVGs will be scheduled to start bouncing by Thursday, July 30th by 12:00 MHQ!

🌟 From GOTM to BVG!

One of the most exciting parts of this launch is that every one of these BVGs began as a real player-designed Garden of the Month entry! We asked the Munzee team to vote on their favorite past GOTM designs, and we did it completely blind — no names attached, just the gardens themselves.

As it turns out, three of our top picks were created by the same talented player! Rather than swapping any out just to spread the spotlight around, we decided to stick with the team’s original choices. Great designs deserve recognition! Congratulations to CoalCracker7 and traycg for creating such memorable gardens!

As a special thank you, CoalCracker7 and traycg will each receive one deployed pin in every BVG inspired by their designs!

If you’re ever traveling nearby, be sure to stop by and capture the original permanent gardens that inspired these bouncing creations:

🪂 Other BVG Reminders

  • BVGs will bounce to Munzee Events and other popular locations around the world! Whether you’re attending an event or just exploring the map, you’ll have a chance to cap these colorful creations.
  • If you haven’t received a BVG’s capture badge, please do the following BEFORE e-mailing support@munzee.com:
    • Make sure you captured ALL of the BVG’s pins — Sam has added a feature on CuppaZee that makes this easier — check out the post about it HERE!
    • If you are confident that you’ve captured all of the pins, please also make sure you’ve waited 1 full MHQ day
      • ALL badges take varying amounts of time to award — sometimes they appear instantly, and other times they can take a few hours. Most DO appear within 24 hours though!

Munzee on!

🎄☀️ Celebrate Christmas in July With a New Garden Badge!

The holidays may still be a few months away, but the Epic Eclipse is already lighting up Christmas Tree Gardens around the world!

Last December, we introduced Christmas Tree Template Gardens, festive 18-pin designs topped with either a Light Mystery or Void Mystery. Players came together to plant these digital evergreens and decorate them with colorful virtual ornaments, but several trees across the map are still waiting for their finishing touches.

That’s why we’re celebrating Christmas in July with a brand new deployment challenge and exclusive badge!

Christmas Tree Completionists

The neon design offers a festive nod to the Epic Eclipse celebration taking place during Munzee’s 15th birthday, transforming a classic Christmas tree into a bright blacklight display! From now through August 25th, 2026, deploy at least 5 Munzees in Christmas Tree Gardens to earn the new Neon Noel badge!

Whether you’re adding ornaments to a garden in your community, helping finish a tree while traveling, or gathering local players for a festive deployment day, every new pin brings these holiday creations one step closer to completion.

Remember, your 5 deployments can be spread across multiple qualifying Christmas Tree Gardens. You don’t need to place them all in the same tree! NOTE – the badge will be awarded soon after August 25th once this challenge ends.

Find a Tree That Needs Your Help

Christmas Tree Gardens were created using the Template option in Sam’s CuppaZee Gardens tool. Each tree contains 18 deployment spots, including either a Light Mystery or Void Mystery topper.

Take a look around the map for unfinished Christmas Tree Gardens near you, then invite friends, family members, or local players to help fill the remaining spaces. You might even discover a few trees along your summer travels that are waiting to be decorated!

Qualifying gardens will be tagged with: “Based on Christmas Tree by munzee”

Browse Christmas Tree Gardens!

Christmas Tree Garden Pak

Need a few more ornaments to complete a nearby tree? The Christmas Tree Garden Pak is returning to the Freeze Tag Store for the Christmas in July celebration!

For the discounted price of $20, each Pak includes:

  • 1 Light Mystery OR 1 Void Mystery
  • 6 Virtuals
  • 6 Virtual Color Credits

Buy the Christmas Tree Garden Pak!

Whether you’re starting a new Christmas Tree Garden or helping complete one that’s already growing, this Pak includes everything you need to add a little more holiday cheer to the map.

So grab your virtual ornaments, gather your fellow players, and help these unfinished trees shine beneath the Epic Eclipse. Deploy at least 5 Munzees in qualifying Christmas Tree Gardens by August 25th to unwrap the exclusive Neon Noel badge!

🎂 Birthday Cake – 15 Years of Munzee designed by HoustonTxDave in Jersey Village, TX, US
What better way to celebrate July than with a birthday cake honoring 15 Years of Munzee? Complete with colorful balloons, glowing candles, and plenty of frosting, this festive design perfectly captured the spirit of our anniversary month. We especially love how the different Virtual colors create the cake’s layers and decorations, while the surrounding balloons make the whole garden feel like a true birthday celebration. It’s a sweet tribute to fifteen incredible years of Munzee adventures!

  • This garden also has its own special Garden Badge! Thanks to HoustonTxDave for sponsoring it, anyone who has captured, or goes on to capture, every Munzee in the garden can earn the badge and save this celebratory design as part of their collection.

🇺🇸 America us designed by geomatrix in St. Paul, MN, US
Nothing says Freedom & Fun quite like the Stars and Stripes! This bold American flag is instantly recognizable, with the red, white, and blue Virtuals creating a crisp, colorful design. We also love the creative variety of types used throughout the stars and stripes, while the decorative border gives the entire flag a polished frame. It’s a fitting patriotic tribute for July’s Independence Day-inspired theme!

  • This garden does not have a Garden Badge just yet, but any player can sponsor one for 750 Zeds! Once sponsored, players who capture every Munzee in the garden will be able to earn a badge commemorating their achievement and preserve the garden design in their collection.

These specials will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture a Traveling Troupe on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same Traveling Troupe visits you. These munzees will not be blastable. They will be attracted to magnets, available from the Freeze Tag Online Store. You can access the Traveling Troupe specials under the “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Specials” filters.

When a Traveling Troupe is captured during the Midnight Matinee, it will scatter 1-2 Neon Performers nearby!

🪽 Bonus Gargoyle + Special Birthday Skin Available! 🦄

The neon glow of the Epic Eclipse has unleashed a special Gargoyle skin to join in the birthday celebrations! Add the Glow-Goyle to your collection by purchasing it directly from the Freeze Tag Store — no streak required!

Special Birthday Gargoyle Details

What Gargoyle awaits at the Freeze Tag Store? The Glow-Goyle, an appropriatley themed unicorn Gargoyle that glows neon bright against the Epic Eclipse’s shade! It is a temporary POB that will remain on the map for approximately 60 days after this launch — until some time on September 15 — when it will be automatically archived on your account. You may recall that this is similar to the Birthday MunzShroom we released last year. This glowing Gargoyle will leave the store after birthday month on August 3rd, so don’t miss your chance to light up the night sky!

NOTE – This purchase WILL NOT count towards the 8 temporary Gargoyles needed to keep a permanent one next year. Only the Base Gargoyle and Bonus Gargoyle purchases will count towards the permanent one.

Unlike normal Gagroyle who must be free from stone, the Glow-Goyle must be free from its crystal encasing!

As stated earlier, you’ll need to buy this Gargoyle from the Freeze Tag Store. It will come with a base Gargoyle with the Glow-Goyle skin already equipped. However, you can still swap out the skins just like the other Gargoyles — refer to our Help Guide article if you need a refresher!

You can find this striking statue at the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Remember, instead of scatters, Gargoyles introduce a new dual-ownership mechanic which will benefit both deployers and cappers!

  • After 4 captures, the Stone Gargoyle will turn into a Cracking Gargoyle
  • After 1 more capture, the Cracking Gargoyle will turn into a Freed Gargoyle, which is owned by both the deployer AND capper! This means both players will earn CapOn points!
    • NOTE: Only the Main Gargoyle Owner will get credit for the deploy. The Temporary Co-Owner will not see a deploy on their side, but instead will see earned CapOn points whenever the co-owned bouncer is captured.
  • After 5 captures, the Freed Gargoyle will turn back into a Crystal Gargoyle

 


Badges

As a reminder, Gargoyles will have 4 associated badge lines:

  • Unique type deploy badges — you’ll need to earn each month’s skin by keeping your streak up!
  • Unique type capture badges — capture at least 1 of each skinned Gargoyle!
  • Overall deploy badges — the more Gargoyles you deploy, the merrier!
  • Overall capture badges — capture as many Gargoyles as you can find!

Check out the unique deploy and capture badges linked with the Glow-Goyle below!

Free the Glow-Goyle and you’ll light up the darkened skies!

Need a Bonus Gargoyle? 🪽✨

If you’re looking to keep your Gargoyle collection growing, you can purchase a Bonus Gargoyle in the Freeze Tag Store HERE! This one will stay on the map through the new year and archive at 23:59 MHQ on January 31, 2027. Plus, it counts toward the 8 temporary Gargoyles you’ll need to earn a permanent one in 2027! It’s the perfect way to keep using all your equipped skins—including the brand-new birthday skin—after the Glow-Goyle  archives after its 60-day window. 🍰🎉 Read more in the original launch blog!

#MunzeeOn

July 14, 2026

🩷💚💜 Glow Up! ☁︎🌒🎆 The Munzee Map Is Covered In Shadows!

The Epic Eclipse has darkened the New Dawn Festival, and malevolent midnight spirits have been unleashed all across the Munzee map! Certain Munzee types are now covered in neon shadows, and this Shadow Curse is spreading through clusters of glowing blacklight Wisps. Shine a light and save the day by capturing Shadow Cursed Munzees, clear out the Shadow Wisps, and brighten up the map before this eclipse is permanent!

Read on to learn more how you can brighten up birthday month!

Shadow Cursed Munzees

As the darkness spreads, some of our most brightly shining munzees have been taken over by the neon glow of the shadows! Flat Flashlights, Air Mysteries, and Surprise Munzees have all been affected by the Shadow Curse, and their black-lit distortions can be seen below. Don’t let their neon glowing appearance fool you though — even if you’ve captured these Munzees before, shining a light on these shadow versions will earn you a brand new cap!

Week #1 Shadow Cursed Types
  • Capture: 40 points
  • CapOn: 3 points

As the Shadow Curse continues to spread, new Munzee types will be overcast… Here’s a sneak peek at the upcoming afflicted types starting next Tuesday, July 21st at 00:01 MHQ! Week #1 types will still be available to find alongside Week #2. Move fast and help brighten things up while you can — all Shadow Munzees will fade away and leave the map on Sunday August 2nd at 23:59 MHQ.

Week #2 Shadow Cursed Types
  • Capture: 60 points
  • CapOn: 3 points

These Shadow Munzees are FlashMOBs just like the Cursed Munzees from previous events. This means that the Cursed Munzees are actually a “mask” applied on top of a host munzee: similar to a bouncing munzee, but once capped, they do NOT bounce anywhere else. You have “removed” the mask. All effected munzees will have these new types placed on top of them – only the first to capture on each type will be able to get these Cursed Munzees! So hurry and rush to capture them before others do!

Special Scatter Details

Upon cleansing a Shadow Munzee via capture, up to 3 Shadow Wisps will materialize nearby. This is the curse’s final defense mechanism — if it can’t stay on its original host, it will attempt to spread nearby via Wisps, like a nasty infection. Cap them to keep the map from succumbing to darkness!

Limited Time Event Pack

The Shadow Cursed Pack is here to help you chase the darkness before it spreads! This limited-time bundle includes a mix of all 6 featured Shadow Cursed types. Deploy them during the Shadow Cursed Event to bring more cursed captures closer to you, then track down the scattered Shadow Wisps to keep the shadows from taking over the map!

Badges

Brightening up the map and shining a neon light on the Shadow Curse won’t be an easy task, so Cappy has prepared two special badges to recognize the most determined cappers!

The first badge, shown below, is awarded for capturing at least 25 Shadow Wisps and helping push back the shadowy spread:

Flicker Finder– Capture 25 Shadow Wisp scatters during the Shadow Cursed Event in July 2026.

One badge is revealed, but the other is still in the shadows — you’ll need to see the light to reveal the solution!

The shadow is spreading, but the party is just getting started! Jump in, capture Shadow Munzees, and help reclaim the map before the eclipse takes over the skies for good!

Munzee on!
