Munzee Celebrates Origami Day with All New Specials!

Have you noticed the Flat Friends have been playing with arts and crafts?!

While we’ve been mentioning the holiday season for a little while now, one special day that you might not have anticipated us celebrating happens to be the reason for our next specials! In honor of November 11th being Origami Day, we have a new set of bouncing specials that have started hitting the map!

You may have noticed the Flats’ arts and crafts project bouncing around the map already, but there are four types of the virtual MOBs. The Origami specials will be on the map from now until November 18th at 23:59 MHQ time to celebrate World Origami Day.

Origami Day celebrates the wonder of paper folding, both an exciting and restorative form of art. One of our 4 icons features an origami crane, an image symbolic of hope and healing through hardship. Folding 1,000 origami cranes is traditionally believed to grant one wish. Today these beliefs filter into charities revolving around this recognized symbol of hope. We’re launching these specials in accordance with this message, as well as to celebrate the beauty and fun of paper folding!

Origami Details

There will be 1,111 Origami specials (approximately 278 of each type) bouncing around the map. These specials will feature 4 virtual MOBs that will land on Virtuals and specific Flat Friends Munzees every 6 hours or when captured. If you checked out the November Flat Friends schedule, you might have noticed that Flat Friends will be active throughout the entire duration of these specials.

The 4 specials include:

  • Origami Crane, lands on Flat Robs and all colors of virtuals (278 of these specials)
  • Origami Lily, lands on Flat Lous and all colors of virtuals (278 of these specials)
  • Origami Boat, lands on Flat Matts and all colors of virtuals (278 of these specials)
  • Origami Butterfly, lands on Flat Hammocks and all colors of virtuals (277 of these specials)

The points* distribution for these specials will be the same for all 4:

  • Capture: 111 points
  • CapOn (Host): 111 points

You can access these specials by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters. The Origami specials will be attracted to Virtual Magnets on Virtuals.

Badges

Additionally, there will be three badges to earn based on number of captures of Origami specials. But just how many captures it takes to earn all 3 badges will be kept a secret! However, we will reveal the first badge in the line, which appears as follows:

Wishful Wrappings– Capture at least one of any type of Origami Special

We hope you’re ready to celebrate the wonders of origami with us!

Munzee on!

 

*During the initial testing of these new types some players may have seen double points on these captures, but this issue has been resolved. All Origami special captures will be worth 111 points.

Introducing the Treehouse and Magnet Burnout!

There are about to be a lot of happy Player Owned Bouncer owners, because our latest map addition is targeted to increase the number of caps on POBs while decreasing the clutter on the map. More points and less mess— what is this awesome new munzee called?! Please welcome the Treehouse Munzee to the map!

Treehouse Munzee

The Treehouse Munzee is a physical Destination Munzee that allows up to 6 POBs to land on it. This all new munzee fits into the Destination line of munzee types, but it also contains the ability to be captured once per player per 24 hour MHQ day just like Places Munzees! That’s right, the Treehouse Munzee means plenty of capping opportunities.

Does this extra special munzee sound familiar at all to some of you? Players who purchased the MHQ Bash King’s Court package have been awarded a Treehouse Munzee credit, which was included in the package as a new in-game item. The rest of you will have to wait a short time to pick up your Treehouse Munzees! They will be made available for purchase to the public sometime in the next week, but you can read about them now! Players will also be able to cap Treehouses deployed by King’s Court purchasers in the meantime, so there is still fun to be had!

Points:

  • Deploy: 100 points
  • Cap: 10 points + points for whatever POBs are in the Treehouse at the time of capture.
  • CapOn: 25 points

The deploy circle for Treehouses will be 1,000 feet (304.8 m) from the nearest Treehouse, all other normal 50/150 feet proximity rules apply. To access the Treehouse Munzee, turn on your Physical filter and find it under “Destinations”. It’s also included in the Premium filters under “All Mythologicals” and “All Expiring Specials”.

Please note the following special information about the Treehouse Munzee:

  • The Treehouse Icon will change to show the number of POBs hanging out. Players will see the base icon for 0, but then a 1-6 as more bouncers stop by.
  • This munzee can be capped once daily regardless of the number of POBs hanging out. New POB landings do NOT refresh the capture setting.
  • A Treehouse will attract up to 6 POBs over time, but you can use a physical Munzee Magnet to draw a total of 6 POBs much quicker.
  • Only physical Myths and Variants will land on a Treehouse (No MOBs, TOBs, Pouch Creatures, Fancy Flats, or virtual Myths).
  • The Regular POB timer is still in effect. If a POB times out, it leaves the Treehouse and leaves an open spot for others to join.

Why use a Treehouse? This extra special munzee has the following awesome advantages:

  • Quick and high points
  • Easy access to multiple POB caps at once
  • The ability to share the love with other POB owners
  • Achieve POB clan requirements quicker

The Treehouse Munzee does not have a badge line at this time, but it will count toward the overall Destination capture line the first time you cap it. That means daily caps will not count toward badges, only the first time you cap it.

For more information about the Treehouse Munzee, how to deploy it, and exactly what types will land on it, check out our Help Guide article!

Magnet Burnout

In addition to the Treehouse Munzee, we’re excited to announce that we have removed the purchase limit on both physical and virtual Munzee Magnets! Now players can buy as many Munzee Magnets and Virtual Magnets as they like from the Freeze Tag Online Store. 

However, with the new update Greenies and Virtuals will only be able to be magnetized 3 times a day. After that, the munzee will be “burned out” and unable to be magnetized until the next MHQ day. This “burn out” is 3x per player, per MHQ day. In addition, we’ve made a small improvement to save space, so now when you magnetize a munzee, the magnet button will disappear until the magnet expires. That way there is more room to display the bouncer information!

The Magnet Burnout was created to encourage players to keep moving and not just magnetize the same munzee over and over again. There will be a timer on the burned out munzee to show how long you have to wait until it can be magnetized again!

Are you ready to have some fun with this awesome new game addition? Don’t forget to pick up the awesome new Treehouse munzee when it releases! For now watch the map and see if one gets deployed somewhere near you! You can also stock up on some Magnets and catch those bouncers!

Munzee on!

*Please note that when Treehouses go on sale to the public players will be limited to one purchase every 14 days.

Feast on a Classic with Portugal Global Grub!

The year is slowly starting to wind down, but that doesn’t mean we don’t want to feast! With two and a half months left for our Global Grub releases, we’re thrilled to announce the addition of Portugal Global Grub specials to the map starting today at 15:00 MHQ time!

A total of 10 Portugal Global Grub specials will be deployed. They will join other virtual Global Grub specials such as USA, Ukraine, France, Australia, and more! They will bounce to regular virtuals and colored virtuals every 12 hours or when captured.

Points

  • Cap: 200
  • CapOn (Host): 100

Every time a Global Grub special is captured, you will earn a badge featuring a dish of food that is unique to the flag pin country. Capturing the Portugal Global Grub will earn you the following special badge:

We bet you’ve never had a sandwich quite like a francesinha! This Portuguese sandwich is composed of bread, well-cured ham, fresh sausage, linguiça, roast meats, and steak. Then it’s doused in melted cheese and a thick, hot beer and tomato sauce. Essentially it’s the meat lovers dream, and not intended for those who are watching their figures. But, hey, life’s short! Try a francesinha!

The Global Grub specials will bounce around the globe for the remainder of the year before leaving the map on 12/31/2019 at 23:59 MHQ time. You will have until then to try your luck capturing these very rare specials. Don’t forget that our overall Global Grub capture line allows you more opportunities than ever to earn Global Grub badges!

Stay tuned for more Global Grub releases in the future!

Munzee on!

MH-Qlue Makes for a Real Whodunnit!

Breaking news, Munzers! The CzeeO has been attacked and kidnapped at MHQ, and now you have to find out whodunnit before it’s too late! A total of 1,949 MH-Qlue specials will hit the map from October 22 at 00:01 MHQ time through November 6 at 23:59 MHQ time for over two weeks of mystery and fun!

The MH-Qlue specials will feature 1 physical type and 3 virtual scatter types. The virtuals will NOT be blastable, so you’re going to have to get out there to earn them! Ready to hear the details of this multi-layered game within a game? Detectives, let’s dive right in!

MH-Qlue Special

There will be one MH-Qlue bouncing type that bounces to Greenies, Mystery Munzees, and physical Elemental Mystery Munzees every 6 hours or when captured. They WILL be attracted to Munzee Magnets (also available in 5 packs) on Greenies. When capped, the MH-Qlue special will scatter 3 virtual card icons nearby.

Points:

  • Capture: 70 points
  • Cap On: 70 points

The MH-Qlue physical bouncer will bounce to the following:

  • Greenies
  • Mystery Munzees
  • Fire Mystery Munzees
  • Water Mystery Munzees
  • Ice Mystery Munzees
  • Earth Mystery Munzees

Virtual Card Scatters

After an MH-Qlue Special is capped, one of each card type will be deployed as a virtual scatter within 700 feet. These will be visible to everyone for 1 hour or until it is captured. All virtual scatters will be worth 49 Capture points each. The cards will appear on the map as follows:

When the player caps a card, they will randomly earn one of four icons, similar to the Magic 8 Ball specials. Each card type will have four different possibilities. While you might have guessed that it was Rob with the Ban Hammer at MHQ, the actual Suspect Cards will feature the following 4 persons of interest:

Suspect Cards

    • University Professor Corn
    • Mister Zee
    • Mademoiselle Eventa
    • General Green E.

However, the Ban Hammer is one of the weapon options at hand. The 4 Weapons Cards will appear as follows:

Weapon Cards

  • Ban Hammer
  • External Battery
  • Unicorn Horn
  • Globe

Lastly, are you ready to determine the scene of the crime? The 4 Crime Scene Cards will appear as follows:

Crime Scene Cards 

    • The Production Room
    • The Videocast Studio
    • The Munzee Museum
    • The CzeeO’s Office

As you earn different pairings you’ll have different scenarios as to what happened to the CzeeO. Was he attacked in the Munzee Museum, with the Unicorn Horn, by Mademoiselle Eventa? Perhaps it was Uni Professor Corn, with the External Battery, in The Videocast Studio? We’ll reveal the true series of events once the specials have left the map, but in the meantime capture as many clues as you can!

Badges

What’s a game of amateur detective without a badge? Fortunately we have more than one badge in store for this whodunnit special! There are 3 badges you can earn for MH-Qlue captures, though we’re only going to reveal the first in the series. It will appear as follows:

MH-Qlue: Board To Death- Capture one MH-Qlue Special

To discover the rest of the badges, you’ll just have to put your detective skills to the test! What do you think⁠— can you help us find out what happened to the CzeeO?!

Munzee on!

Weapons Weekend

This month is all about MedZEEval Times, so be sure to stock up on as many Clan Weapons as you can before the big weekend!

National Tooth Fairy Day Means New Specials!

Do you remember the joy of a loose baby tooth? The wiggle, the wonder, the crisp dollar bill you’d discover under your pillow in the morning. While you might not be celebrating loose teeth these days, we do have a way to get you excited about detached dentures. You’d expect for these specials to be released at tooth-hurty, but the Tooth Fairy Specials will actually be hitting the map at 15:00 MHQ time today for some tooth caps you’ll actually enjoy!

Tooth Fairy Specials

As you’ll soon see from our badge and tags, today is Tooth Fairy Day 2019! That’s right, August 22 marks National Tooth Fairy Day in the United States, a holiday that allows you to connect to your inner kid and recall the fun of this fabled fantasy figure. So what better way to celebrate the whimsy than with specials that will have you grinning from ear to ear?!

The Tooth Fairy Specials will be 3 physical Munzee Owned Bouncers (MOBs) that will bounce to specific munzees. We will be putting a total of 1,600 of these specials on the map, but some teeth are more rare than others! White Tooth specials are the most common, Gold Tooth specials are less common, and Diamond Tooth specials are super rare. All specials will bounce around every 8 hours or when captured and will remain on the map until September 7 at 23:59 MHQ time.

Where do teeth like to shop? At the Gap! But what landing pads are they attracted to? That depends on the special! The White Tooth will be attracted to Greenies, the Gold Tooth will be attracted to Premium Munzees, and the Diamond Tooth will be attracted to physical Jewel Munzees (Diamond, Ruby, Aquamarine, Topaz, and Pink Diamond). The point distribution for capping a Tooth Fairy special will vary based on which special is capped.

Points

  • White Tooth: 1 PinPoint and 50 points to both Capture and Host
  • Gold Tooth: 5 PinPoints and 100 points to both Capture and Host
  • Diamond Tooth: 10 PinPoints and 250 points to both Capture and Host

Alright guys, you know the drill! You can access our latest specials by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters. Additionally, you can Magnetize Greenies to get White Tooth specials, but Gold and Diamond Tooth specials won’t be attracted to Magnets, so keep your eyes peeled for them!

UPDATE: If you are the owner of the munzee and you capture it, unfortunately, you will only get the capture rewards, not both. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Badges

While we can’t offer you a plaque, we do have badges you can earn instead! There will be a total of 4 new badges to earn for capturing the Tooth Fairy Specials. While we aren’t going to reveal all of the badges just yet, we will give you a sneak peek of what you can earn. The first badge in the series will appear as follows:

Moral Molars– Capture one White Tooth special.

Want to know what other badges you can earn? Better get capping!

Personal Tags

Last but not least, we will also be releasing our brand new Tooth Fairy Personal Munzee Tags! You can pick up this custom design in the Freeze Tag Online Store for $10. Check it out below:

We hope you enjoy these specials! No flossing required, but don’t forget to cap these teeth when you wake up and before you go to bed!

Munzee on!

This special is NOT blastable, because you have to travel the distance to find love! ? The capture radius will be 500 feet from all Virtuals.

All activity on Flat Lou, Flat Rob, and Diamonds will be worth DOUBLE POINTS during the duration of this special!

Badges

As an added bonus, there will be one badge to earn for capturing the She Said YES special. The badge will appear as follows:

A big congratulations to Rob and Louise! We wonder what specials we’ll have to come up with when they officially tie the knot…
