🎃 October 2025 GOTM Winners 🪦

This month, the theme was “Haunted Haunts” — we were certainly spoiled for choice when looking at all the creepy-cool designs you’ve created!

Don’t forget — the CuppaZee Gardens Tool is your go-to resource for dreaming up your own designs or finding the perfect spot to deploy! Whether you’re going for grandeur or keeping it light, it’s the best place to start your garden adventure.

Without further ado, let’s jump right in to celebrate the winners for October:

🎃 Jack-o’-lantern Garden designed by Sevans and LiamCEvans in Broomfield, CO, US
Did you know this garden was designed by a father and son team? In addition, the impressive size of this garden was YEARS in the making at OVER 1,000 pins! We had featured it before in 2019, but as it wasn’t complete at the time, it could not win GOTM. We’re happy to see that the garden continued to grow and reap its reward today! While larger gardens understandably take a longer time to fill, we hope that doesn’t discourage those of you who enjoy designing them — more pins means the potential for more detail!

🪦 At night in the cemetery… designed by microx in Dresden, Saxony, DE
This design definitely stood out — or should we say, rose out (from the grave)! The wooden cross appears 3D thanks to the use of Virtual Browns strategically placed along the sides of the main Clan Weapon face. We also love the detail of the Naudiz Norse Zodiacs, with their deeper gray color, as the nails of the undead hand! Lastly, the freshly turned soil is made much more interesting with a HUGE assortment of munzee types — definitely a treasure trove unearthed for the players who are lucky enough to visit!

✨ Special Badges for All Players Who Deployed Within the Winning GOTM!

🌱 Plan Ahead for GOTM Glory!

We know how much effort and creativity goes into designing amazing gardens, and we want to give you a head start! With the themes for the rest of the year now revealed, you have plenty of time to plan your designs, gather the right Munzees, and even recruit friends and family to help fill out your vision. The best gardens often come together when players work together — so start brainstorming early and get those creative juices flowing! We can’t wait to see the incredible designs you come up with — and who knows, maybe one of them will take the top spot in a future GOTM!

New to building gardens? Check out the Munzee Help Guide to learn everything you need to know BEFORE getting started!

🌐 November 2025 GOTM Theme – “World of Wonders“

November’s theme will focus on everything Around ZEE World! Think famous landmarks, different cultures, or global travel! Munzee is a worldwide adventure after all, so we’d love to see more gardens showing that off!

🎄 December 2025 GOTM Theme – “Festive Foliage“

December’s theme will focus on all that is merry and bright! Think holiday trees, ornaments, gifts, and other symbols of seasonal celebrations! It’s the most wonderful time of the year, so we can’t wait to see how you light up the map!

🎉 January 2026 GOTM Theme – “New Beginnings“

Inspired by National Motivation & Inspiration Day (Jan 2) and National Hobby Month.
Start the year fresh! Gardens can feature symbols of new goals, resolutions, or hobbies — think calendars, fireworks, gym shoes, or even paintbrushes. Anything that represents a fresh start and chasing new dreams.

💖 February 2026 GOTM Theme – “Love & Kindness“

Inspired by Valentine’s Day (Feb 14) and Random Acts of Kindness Day (Feb 17).
Show the love! Hearts, flowers, candy, or even linked hands are perfect symbols. You could also spotlight kindness — smiley faces, community icons, or gardens shaped like hugs.

📚 March 2026 GOTM Theme – “Read, Learn, Grow“

Inspired by National Reading Month and Learn About Butterflies Day (Mar 14).
Turn the page to creativity! Books, butterflies, pencils, or graduation caps would all fit. Celebrate learning and curiosity in garden form.

🌍 April 2026 GOTM Theme – “Earth & Environment“

Inspired by Earth Day (Apr 22) and National Garden Month.
Think green! Earths, recycling symbols, flowers, trees, or even endangered animals. Celebrate the planet and all things natural.

💪 May 2026 GOTM Theme – “Health & Heroes“

Inspired by National Physical Fitness & Sports Month and Memorial Day (May 25).
Designs could show sports gear, medals, running shoes, or strong figures. You might also honor military or community heroes — flags, ribbons, or silhouettes in salute.

🏞️ June 2026 GOTM Theme – “Great Outdoors“

Inspired by National Camping Month and Great Outdoors Month.
Picture tents, campfires, fish, or mountains. Anything that sparks a summer adventure — hiking trails, kayaks, or even a picnic spread!

🇺🇸 July 2026 GOTM Theme – “Freedom & Fun“

Inspired by Independence Day (July 4) and National Ice Cream Day (July 19).
Stars, stripes, fireworks, or cones stacked high with scoops of ice cream! Perfect for showing off patriotism and summer fun.

🤝 August 2026 GOTM Theme – “Friendship & Community“

Inspired by National Friendship Day (Aug 2) and Family Fun Month.
Hands holding, stick figures, family icons, or even smiling emojis. Celebrate the joy of connections, bonding, and togetherness.

📖 September 2026 GOTM Theme – “Learning & Labor“

Inspired by Labor Day (Sept 7) and National Literacy Month.
Think books, gears, tools, or worker icons. Highlight both the hard work and the knowledge that keeps the world moving.

🎃 October 2026 GOTM Theme – “Spooky & Creative“

Inspired by Halloween (Oct 31) and National Arts & Humanities Month.
Pumpkins, ghosts, skeletons, or paintbrushes dipped in eerie colors. Anything that blends imagination with spooky flair!

🦃 November 2026 GOTM Theme – “Gratitude & Giving“

Inspired by Thanksgiving (Nov 26) and National Philanthropy Day (Nov 15).
Think cornucopias, turkeys, helping hands, or food drives. Celebrate generosity, thankfulness, and giving back.

❄️ December 2026 GOTM Theme – “Joy & Traditions“

Inspired by National Cookie Day (Dec 4) and the holiday season.
Cookies, ornaments, snowflakes, candles, or wrapped gifts. Anything that brings cheer and captures holiday traditions around the world.

🪦 BVGs to take us to Turkey Day! 🦃

This third wave of BVGs includes three Halloween / Thanksgiving designs! These gardens will bounce for 6 weeks after the garden is full, meaning until 23:59 MHQ on December 5th!

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 this Friday, October 24th at 10:00 MHQ! These BVGs will be scheduled to start bouncing by this Friday, October 24th at 12:00 MHQ! Or 3 hours after the last BVG has been filled, during MHQ hours. Whichever comes first!

🪂 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!

Grab your pins now before these gardens are stuffed full!

Munzee on!

🎃 A Widdl Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice! 🍬

Say hello to the Widdl Pumpkin — the trick-or-treating tot who’s all about the Halloween hustle! With a candy basket in one hand and a pumpkin grin that shines brighter than a full moon, this Widdl is ready to add some frightfully fun flavor to your collection. Skip the mystery of the Widdlz Trunk and purchase this festive favorite directly from the FT Online Store — no blind boxes or duplicates to worry about!

Keep reading to find out how this cheerful pumpkin pal will bring sweet rewards to your collection and get your Widdl Pumpkin HERE!

🎃 A Pumpkin Patch Pal Has Sprouted 🌕

Somewhere between the cornfields and the candy bowl, a new Widdl came to life — the Widdl Pumpkin! Bursting with Halloween spirit (and a few too many sweets), this viney little wanderer can’t stop skipping from door to door in search of the next sugary score. Don’t let that big smile fool you — it’s been waiting all year for spooky season to roll around, and it’s ready to paint the town orange!

👉 Grab your Widdl Pumpkin now for $12.50 – click HERE to purchase!

NEW Widdl Pumpkin Details

The Widdl Pumpkin is already maxed out at Level 10, so you’ll be harvesting those top-tier points right away! You can redeploy it directly from a Wishing Well for just 25 Stars, just like your other Level 10 Widdlz. As a reminder, this temporary POB will remain on the map for 5 days.

Widdl Pumpkin
Points
  • Deploy: 373
  • Capture: 258
  • CapOn: 88
Landing Pads

This Widdl can be spotted on the landing pads listed above every 1 hour or when captured.

This Widdl will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture this Widdl on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same Widdl visits you. This Widdl is non-blastable. It will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access this Widdl by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” filter.

Well Wisp Scatter Bonus

When this Widdl is captured, it will scatter a Well Wisp nearby to start a trail. These are the same Well Wisps from the Daily Stroll, which will be deployed on the Wishmaster account.

Well Wisp
Points
  • Capture: 50

These scatters will only be visible to the capper and expire after 120 minutes. They have a capture radius of 300 feet.

Badges

Deploy the Widdl Pumpkin and unlock an adorable new badge — proof that you’ve officially joined the pumpkin patch crew! 🎃

The Widdl Pumpkin is only available for a limited time, so don’t let it roll off the porch before you grab yours! Add this sweet and spooky Widdl to your collection today and celebrate Halloween the Munzee way — with treats, fun, and a little pumpkin magic! 🍬

👻🕵️ Secret ZeeOps – BOOdunnit (October 2025)

Can you help solve the murder of a mechanical mogul?! An ALL NEW Secret ZeeOps is now available in the ZeeOps Hub for the usual cost of 1,500 Zeds until 23:59 MHQ on November 30th. Remember, if you’ve purchased a Secret ZeeOp, you can complete it and collect rewards even after it is no longer available for purchase.

Agents, when faced with a whodunnit, it’s important to follow convention: you’ll first need to investigate various locations in Gearcroft Manor to determine if they have any bearing on the crime. Then you’ll need to identify possible murder weapons in the locations you’ve visited. Lastly, you’ll need to interview staff members and any other persons — or in this case, mechz — of interest to discover who the culprit is.

Completing a series of missions will unlock new levels in this operation. There are three levels, each with five missions. If you conquer every mission in Operation: BOOdunnit, you’ll earn a cool new badge, the NEW The BOOtler Mech (info below), and more exciting rewards listed in the app!

NEW Mech Details

Like the other Munzee Mechz, The BOOtler is a temporary POB that will remain on the map until it has been captured 15 times.

The BOOtler
Points
  • Deploy: 350
  • Capture: 230-330
  • CapOn: 100-200
  • Busted (Crushed): 500
Landing Pads

This busy butler inspects the landing pads listed above every 6 hours or when captured.

This mech will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture this mech on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same mech visits you. This mech is non-blastable. It will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access this mech by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” filter.

When The BOOtler is captured, it will scatter up to 3 Horror d’Oeuvres on the Mech owner’s account.

Horror d’Oeuvres
Points
  • Capture: 30-50
  • CapOn: 5-30

These scatters will be visible to any player and expire after 120 minutes. They have a capture radius of 300 feet. Since they are passive deploys, these scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity.

Badges

As with other Munzee Mechz, the badge for deploying The BOOtler depicts the Blueprints, and is shown below:

For those who capture The BOOtler, a badge awaits. As there’s just one badge in this category, we’ll keep it secret, for now.

On behalf of MHQ, we thank you for your continued service.

📣 Make Your Voice Heard — Introducing Community Credits! 🎫

The game of Munzee has always thrived thanks to you — our amazing global community of players! Now, it’s time to take that one step further with a brand-new way to shape the future of the game. Introducing Community Credits — a special new currency that lets you help decide which updates and features we work on next! To access these latest features, you’ll need to make sure you’re on the latest version of Munzee from the App Stores (4.1.246 on both iOS and 4.1.247 Android), then restart the app to pull down the latest over-the-air update version #1207.

With Community Credits, you’ll be able to vote toward proposed gameplay updates that we put forward to the community. Your votes will directly influence the direction of Munzee, giving you a real say in how the game evolves.

💰 How to Earn Community Credits

Players can earn Community Credits (CCs) by participating in a variety of gameplay activities and events! To start, you’ll be able to hold a maximum of 1,000 CCs at a time — though this limit may increase in the future. Note – This means if you already have 1,000 CCs, you will not be able to earn anymore until you spend some of the credits you have.

We want dedicated, active players to have the strongest voice in shaping the direction of Munzee. Here’s where you can start earning Community Credits right away:

  • 🎉 October Special Events
  • ⚔️ Clan Wars
  • 🕵️ Select Daily ZeeOps
  • 🗓️ Munzee Monthly Moments
  • 🌸 Garden of the Month

Premium players have received the very first Community Credits to use right now!
Keep your eyes peeled — more ways to earn Community Credits will be coming soon!
*maybe a Widdl Cap bonus for some lucky players???*

🗳️ 1st Community Credits Vote!

Our very first vote is officially LIVE — and we can’t wait to see what the community decides! Voting will officially end next Friday, October 24th at 12:00 MHQ, so be sure to get your votes in before then! Below are the four feature ideas you can contribute your credits toward:

🧪 Credit Potion

Earn bonus credits when capturing certain Munzee types — like Jewel Shards from Jewels or Cogs from Mechz! A rewarding way to boost your daily capping fun.

⚡ CapOn Booster

Double your CapOn points! Activate this booster during Events or busy capture days to earn twice the points when others cap your Munzees.

🎯 Targeted Magnet Events

Special magnet events where specific types attract specific bouncers — like Earth Mysteries pulling Widdlz or Diamonds pulling Cubimals! Plan your magnet strategy and reel in the rewards.

🚀 Virtual Auto Capture Booster

Capture all Virtual Munzees within 500 feet automatically while moving around! Just activate and let the points roll in — no tapping required.

🎟️ Tap the Ballot Box to Vote!

You can access the Community Credits voting area by visiting the Camp Hub and tapping on the new Ballot Box, or head directly to CuppaZee here to cast your votes!

Voting Details:

  • Players can contribute any number of Community Credits toward a vote.
  • Players can vote toward more than one option if desired.
  • Tap on the Question Mark icon to view more details about a feature
    • This pop up will also display profile pictures of the Top 10 Players who have contributed the most votes to the feature

Please note: while Community Credit votes will strongly influence the direction of future updates, a winning option does not guarantee immediate development or release. These votes help our team better understand what features and ideas players are most excited about — and we’ll carefully review and consider every result before moving forward.

In some cases, if one option becomes a clear and overwhelming favorite, we may temporarily remove it as a “confirmed frontrunner” so that voting can continue between the remaining options. This ensures all ideas get fair attention while helping us gauge overall player interest across multiple potential features.

🏅 New Badge: Community Choice

Every voice counts — and now yours does too! Earn the brand-new Community Choice badge when you cast your first vote by using 1 Community Credit to influence the future of Munzee.

🌍 Shape the Future of Munzee

It’s time to get out there, earn some Community Credits, and make your mark! Whether you’re passionate about scoring strategies, boosters, or bouncers, your voice will help decide what’s next for Munzee.

So start playing, start earning, and start voting — the future of Munzee is in your hands!

Munzee on!
