⚡ Add a Shock of Color to the Map with Electric Eel Gardens! 🐍🐠

Gardens don’t have to be big to be beautiful! We proved this last year with our Glow Worm Invasion — we loved seeing how your creativity manifested in tons of different variations on the Glow Worm Garden, despite having some strict parameters.

We wanted to bring back a similar challenge this year, but the Glow Worms have seemingly evolved into Electric Eels! Now you may be asking, what’s the difference between a Glow Worm and an Electric Eel? Well they’re shocking to touch for one thing! Each Electric Eel Garden will be made up of 8 Virtual Colors along with an Electric Mystery Munzee at the start and finish of each design.

We’ve also come up with a more streamlined process for crafting these new mini gardens– so instead of you creating the gardens entirely from scratch and transferring ownership to us like last year, Sam of CuppaZee has upgraded the Gardens tool to include a Template option! Here’s a walkthrough on how to use it:

How to Create Electric Eel Gardens

  1. Navigate to the [My Gardens] page in CuppaZee: https://web.cuppazee.com/gardens/my
  2. Click [+ Create New Garden] in the top-right corner
  3. Click [+ Create New Layer]
  4. Click [From Template]
  5. Click on the Electric Eel template
  1. Move the garden’s anchor point to where you’d like on the map — the tool will display a message below to show if the area is clear of Munzees that will block your garden
  2. Edit your layer name if desired
  3. Use the slider to change the rotation if desired
  4. Click [Add Layer]
  5. Use the [Draw] option on the right side of the screen to swap the Virtual Colors from the template to other Virtual Colors as you wish
    1. NOTE – ONLY VIRTUAL COLORS CAN BE CUSTOMIZED IN THIS TEMPLATE! Some templates will have certain types locked to keep the design of the overall template theme. The Electric Eel Template will have both Electric Mysteries locked, but the Virtual Colors can be changed to any color!
  6. When you’re ready, give your Electric Eel a name and publish the garden! *One garden per player account*

How to find Electric Eel Gardens

If you would like to deploy in an Electric Eel Garden you or others have created, you can easily find them on CuppaZee Gardens by scrolling down to the new category in the Garden List page called “September 2025 – Electric Eels“:​

Badges

Also like last year, by deploying in an Electric Eel Garden you’ll earn an exclusive badge, plus a special additional badge if you deploy 10 or more virtuals collectively in Electric Eel Gardens* as well. We’re keeping the badge designs a secret for now, but they will be delivered in early October as long as you fulfill the criteria.

To give you an idea of what they look like, here are the Glow Worm badges from last year:
