April 2022 Skin: Foolish Flamingo

As the month comes to a close, we wanted to make sure you were heading into April with your desired Flamingos! The skin for completing your March capture streak (and the corresponding badge), which is the Lucky Garden Flamingo shown below, will be awarded in early April. But, we couldn’t wait to share what’s in store for next month!

March Flamingo Reminders

If you haven’t picked up a Flamingo yet, they are available in the Freeze Tag Store for $10.

Each month, the price of a Flamingo will decrease by $1. However, players can only purchase 1 Flamingo every 28 days.

Don’t forget that you’ll need to own at least 8 Flamingos by the end of the year to have a permanent one next year — so make sure to stock up soon if you’re a fan of these brightly-colored lawn decorations!

We also released special Reseller Garden Flamingos in February — if you’re interested, you can check out our blog post on them HERE!

April Flamingo Details

What Flamingo Skin can you look forward to earning in April? The funny Foolish Garden Flamingo! Like the other flamingos, the Foolish Garden Flamingo is a temporary POB that will remain on the map as long as players with permanent Garden Flamingos continue to use it.

Foolish Garden Flamingo
Points
  • Capture: 250
  • 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, to earn this skin, you’ll need to complete next month’s (April’s) capture streak. Once the skin is awarded in May, you can change the skin on the flamingo to this one at any point — refer to our Help Guide article for the instructions!

You can find these frivolous fowls adding cheer to the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Additionally, the Foolish Garden Flamingo will scatter up to 3 NEW Plastic Garden Flamingos OR Funny Feathers nearby when it is captured, similar to how Tree scatters can be split! Like the other Flamingo Feathers, these scatters will be visible to any player and will be deployed on the Flamingo owner’s account. This means that unlike Air Mystery Feathers/Boulders, there are CapOn points for the owner! They expire after 120 minutes and have a capture radius of 300 feet. These flamingo scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

Plastic Garden Flamingo Funny Feather
Points Points
  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 50 points
  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 50 points

Badges

As a reminder, Garden Flamingos have 4 associated badge lines:

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

While we revealed images for the first of each badge line in the original post, we are happy to show you the “Unique type deploy” and “Unique type capture” badges associated with the Foolish Garden Flamingo:

We hope you don’t laugh yourself silly earning April’s Flamingo Skin!

Munzee on!

A ZEE-Dayz for Premium Members + NEW Greeting Cards!

As we mentioned earlier in the week, today we’re kicking off a very special ZEE-Dayz! While some of the important details were already revealed, we thought it wouldn’t hurt to give you a refresher, along with some additional details. Read on for everything you need to know!

NEW Greeting Card Munzee Details

We have 2 new Open Edition cards for your deploying pleasure available HERE! As Mother’s Day and Father’s Day dates vary around the world, we thought to release these new designs ahead of those days in the U.S.!

Magnificent Mother Card Fantastic Father Card
Points Points
  • Open Edition
    • Deploy: 50
    • Capture: 40
    • CapOn: 25
  • Open Edition
    • Deploy: 50
    • Capture: 40
    • CapOn: 25

Don’t forget to edit the title and the notes to add a personal touch! While the capture message will contain your Munzee username as all Greeting Card capture messages do, we think typing in a more specific note will go a long way to creating a more unique and special experience!

This brings the current lineup of Greeting Cards available for purchase to the following:

Remember that these munzees will be archived 7 days after they are deployed, so make sure your intended recipient captures it before then!

For more information on the Greeting Cards, you can check out our Help Guide article.

Double Points Details

From the period of Thursday, March 24th at 00:01 MHQ through Sunday, March 27th at 23:59 MHQ, non-trial Premium Members can enjoy double points on Flat Friends and Flat Objects!

Please note that Fancy Flat Friends are not included, as they are bouncing munzees.

We hope you join us in finding Flats this weekend — thanks for reading until the end!

Munzee on!

Use Your PinPoints Before They’re Gone!

Almost three years ago, we started the PinPoints program to give players a way to earn game pieces through gameplay and purchases. Although we’ve enjoyed this opportunity to reward players, certain limitations by third party developers have forced us to shut down the program. Because of this PinPoints will no longer be redeemable after 15:00 MHQ on March 31st.

If you have PinPoints you can read more about these changes below, but we do want to highlight a number of reward opportunities we’ve added over the last three years for the Munzee community:

  • We launched our In-App Store, which allows players to purchase items using Zeds, an in-app currency which are often given as rewards for various gameplay achievements.
  • By rebooting our ZeeOps program, players can earn daily rewards for completing missions, as well as different credits that can be used in the Redeem Store.
  • For special occasions, limited-time credits like the Sham Rocks are earnable via gameplay and can be redeemed for unique seasonal game pieces.
  • Key areas of the game have been revamped such as the NEW Daily Activity Tracker, and Clan Wars, where players are able to earn rewards through gameplay as well.

Ultimately as our team has developed better ways to deliver rewards, it has become unrealistic to rely on third party providers for these tools. We appreciate all of those that have embraced the PinPoints program so we want to be sure that you can make the most of those points while you have them.

How to Make the Most of Your PinPoints

To see past PinPoints transactions on our website visit: https://www.munzee.com/pinpoints/

To see current options to redeem in the store https://store.freezetag.com/pages/pinpoints

  • Earn PinPoints on purchases until 15:00 MHQ on March 28th – PP have a 3 day delivery/hold period on them, so we will deactivate new purchases at that time.
  • Review other items in the Freeze Tag Store to see if there’s anything else you want to redeem using PinPoints.
  • Use discount codes produced by PinPoints starting with “LL” before they are voided permanently April 1st.
  • Refer to our Help Guide article if you need a refresher on how everything works.
  • We know there are some players with large amounts of PinPoints left, so we have added a handful of NEW, higher value items until 15:00 MHQ on March 31st.

We do not anticipate offering PinPoints as part of a loyalty program in the future, so you will need to redeem your PinPoints before the removal date. Please note that we do not have PinPoints stored in the Munzee databases. PinPoints are held by a third-party provider through our Shopify store, so we won’t be able to bring those points back.

We hope you enjoy spending your leftover PinPoints, and stay tuned for more exciting ways to earn rewards in the future!

Munzee on!

Stake Your Claim on the Map With This NEW Flat Object!

It’s been a little over 2 weeks since Munzee Madness 11, and though it was still a multi-stage event, it feels like it ended so quickly. We really missed attending events in-person and seeing players we’ve known for years, along with some new faces! As its first event was in 2012, Munzee Madness is the longest-running annual event hosted by players. It was originated by one of our Resellers, 1849, who owns Gold’n Coins! This quick history lesson is just one example of Resellers helping to maintain and grow the Munzee community — so in honor of ALL our Resellers, we’ve created a NEW game piece just for them!

The sixth Flat Object is a little different from the previous objects, as it was not designed by one specific team member — instead, we’ve developed it to represent our Resellers! As Munzee is a global game, we appreciate that our Resellers make it easier for local players to get their hands on Munzee stickers and other physical items. On top of that, as mentioned above, they are often a huge part of maintaining and growing the local Munzee community.

This Flat (and the badges associated with them) will be continuing the pirate theme we’ve established for our Resellers. Read on to learn more!

Flat RUM Details

The Flat RUM joins the Flats as a virtual type. If you are interested in picking one up, they will be available at most of our Authorized Resellers’ shops some time today. The links to shop all of our resellers are below!

Flat RUM
Points
  • Deploy: 19
  • Capture: Split 83 with a minimum of 18
  • CapOn: Split 83 with a minimum of 18
Additional Info
  • Capture Radius: 300 feet
  • Blastable
  • Proximity: 50 feet from other players’ Flats, 150 feet from your own
  • Filters: In “Virtual – Flats” or “All Flat Types” filter
  • Counts towards both Flat and RUM reqs for Clan Wars and ZeeOps
Store Links

For more information on Flats, you can check out our Help Guide article.

Badges

There are badge lines for deploying and capturing the Flat RUM, which, as hinted above, feature the gear you need for a nautical voyage. You can see the first of each below!

ZEE-Dayz Coming Soon!

Similar to last week’s MunzPak ZEE-Dayz, expect a ZEE-Dayz event for non-trial Premium Members kicking off Thursday at 00:01 MHQ! Flat Munzees will see double their normal point values!

If you are shooting for the the badge and exclusive bouncer for hosting an event every month this year, why not plan your March event for this weekend? Your attendees will be raking in the points! To refer to the details for the Monthly Event Packages again, click HERE!

We hope you enjoy capturing the flags and embracing the pirate life!

Munzee on!

A Gameplay Survey for 2022!

It’s been a while since our last big survey — can you believe it’s been 2 years already? We are getting to a point where we can start planning new things — so we thought it would be prudent to check in with the community via a new survey!

The link to the survey is HERE, but read on for more details regarding the survey and prize drawing!

Survey Details

Like our past surveys, this survey does not collect e-mail addresses, nor will it require sign-in to Google. We’ve chosen to go this route since we want to make it as open to everyone as possible — some people may not be comfortable sharing their e-mail address, others may not have a Google account.

You’ll find that the questions at the beginning of the survey ask for some basic information about you — this is just to get a general idea of our our current player base, and will not be used to identify you in any way, even if you choose to enter the prize drawing (more details on it below). If you’ve filled out our past surveys, many of these questions will likely be familiar to you.

The survey will then shift to more opinion-based questions — feel free to type as much as you’d like (or as much as the Google Form will allow)! We do read every response, though it may take us a while to get through everything.

Once again, the link to the survey is HERE.

Prize Drawing Details

To sweeten the deal, we’ll be doing another random prize drawing! Like in our past surveys, you have the option to submit your username at the end for an entry. Please note the following:

  • Usernames will ONLY be used to conduct this prize drawing.
    • As mentioned above, even if you do enter in your Munzee username, we will not use the data in this survey to identify you in any way. The survey data will remain in this Google Form, separate from the Munzee databases.
  • Multiple entries will disqualify you from winning.
    • We’d like the data to be as accurate as possible — multiple entries from the same people will artificially sway the data a certain way.
  • We will determine the total number of winners based on the number of unique survey responses — said another way, the more players that fill out the survey, the more winners there will be!
    • However, as mentioned in the previous bullet points, please DO NOT fill out the survey multiple times as this will cause our data to be inaccurate, and we will disqualify anyone with multiple entries.
    • DO ask any of your Munzee friends and family to fill out the survey, if they don’t know about it already!
  • Entering the prize drawing is OPTIONAL.
    • If you are not comfortable with having your Munzee username tied to your response, you can certainly leave the field blank.
    • That being said, you should have nothing to fear — we will never punish players for writing honest opinions in this survey. If there is something we can improve, this survey and support@munzee.com are the best places for you to tell us.

The survey will be closed some time on April 1st — and no, this is not a joke. We are looking forward to hearing from everyone!

Munzee On!

NEW Cyclops Skin in the Redeem Store!

We love to know that our players make the effort to pick up trash around their local areas and dispose of them properly as they #MunzeeOn! To honor that practice, we’ve created a new skin just in time for Global Recycling Day! This skin would also be perfect to see on the map on Earth Day next month.

Recyclops Skin

It is available in the Redeem Store in the [Sham Rocks Surprise] tab, also for 25 SRC. Like the Sham Rock n Rolla, it will remain available through 02:30 MHQ on Sunday, April 3rd (the expiration date we had set for Sham Rock Credits).

Recyclops
Landing Pads

If you don’t already own the base Myth, but are still interested in using this skin, here is the link to shop: Cyclops. Keep in mind that the base Myth will also need to be upgraded in order to use the skin. If you haven’t upgraded your base Myth yet, you can purchase a Bouncer Upgrade Credit.

For more information on Skins, you can check out our Help Guide articles HERE and HERE.

Sham Rocks Week 3

As usual, the most up-to-date list of what’s available will be what you see on munzee.com/redeem, where the [Sham Rocks (Week X)] tab swaps out on 12:00 MHQ every Thursday. So make sure to spend your credits each week!

Here is what we have in the Week 3 tab:

Quantity Item Sham Rock Cost Limit
1 Lucky Charm Greeting Card 3 SRC 1 per player
1 Good Luck Greeting Card 2 SRC 5 per player
1 Wish I Was Here Greeting Card 2 SRC 5 per player
1 QRowbar 5 SRC 5 per player
1 Physical Magnet 5 SRC 2 per player
1 Temporary Virtual 5 SRC 5 per player
1 Seasonal Munzee 10 SRC 1 per player
1 Mini Blast 15 SRC 1 per player
5 Cog 20 SRC 1 per player

We hope you continue to enjoy earning Sham Rocks from gameplay this month!

Munzee on!

A ZEE-Dayz for March MunzPak Owners + A NEW Destination!

Our Pre-Paddy’s Day Party was only the beginning… March has much more in store! Read on for everything you need to know!

Double Points Details

From the period of Thursday, March 17th at 12:00 MHQ through Sunday, March 20th at 23:59 MHQ, March MunzPak owners can enjoy double points on select Mechz, Evolutions, and MORE!

Mechz Evolutions Other

Please note that the double points only applies to the munzees listed above, not any scatters that may be triggered after their capture.

NEW tPOB Pub Details

Last week, we teased that a NEW game piece was coming and that non-trial Premium Members would be getting one automatically at 12:00 MHQ today! The wait is over — we are happy to unveil the tPOB Pub,  the first temporary virtual Destination!

Otherwise, if you’re not a Premium Member, the tPOB Pub is available NOW in the Freeze Tag Online Store HERE. Be sure to shop fast, because it will leave the store at 23:59 MHQ on Thursday, March 31st!

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

  • Perfect for travelers who may want the benefits of a Skyland, but only for a short time
  • Quick and high points
  • Easy access to multiple tPOB caps at once
  • The ability to share the love with other tPOB owners
  • Achieve tPOB Clan Wars requirements quicker

Don’t forget that this month, as it’s a Destination, upon capture you have the chance to earn 1 Sham Rock Credit! Otherwise, the info below will always apply (unless we make any tweaks in the future):

Basic Info Special Info
  • ONLY DEPLOYABLE IN-APP
  • Attracts up to 6 tPOBs over time
  • Stays on the map for 7 days
  • Automatically magnetized when 1st deployed
    • Is magnetizable afterwards
  •  Points:
    • Deploy: 250 points
    • Cap: 10 points + points for tPOBs in the PUB at the time of capture.
    • CapOn: 50 points
  • Can be capped once per player per 24 hour MHQ day
    • New tPOB landings do NOT refresh the capture setting
  • The regular tPOB timer is still in effect. If a tPOB times out, it leaves the PUB and an open spot becomes available for others
  • Players will see the base icon above for 0, but then a 1-6 as more tPOBs stop by

The deploy circle for tPOB Pub will be 4,000 feet (1219.2 m) from the nearest tPOB Pub. Capture radius is 1000 feet.

To access the tPOB Pub, turn on your Virtual filter and find it under “Destinations”. If the tPOB Pub is hosting munzees, it can also be visible with the “All Expiring Specials” filter.

For more information on Destinations, you can check out our Help Guide article.

We hope you join us in taking apart some Mechz this weekend — thanks for reading until the end!

Munzee on!

Secret ZeeOps- Operation: Out Of Time (March 2022)

All caught up with Secret ZeeOps and looking for more? Here’s a new one available in the ZeeOps Hub for the usual cost of 1,500 Zeds. For now, it will be available for purchase until 23:59 MHQ on April 30. If you’ve purchased a Secret ZeeOp, you will be able to complete it and collect rewards even after it is no longer available for purchase.

Can you help us solve a DST-linked mystery? If you complete ALL the missions in Operation: Out Of Time, you’ll receive the snazzy badge below, along with the new M0TH3RB04RD and Father TiM3 Mechz (more info below!) and various other rewards listed in the app!

There are 5 levels. All levels have 3 missions each. Each level ends with more prizes.

We may share this information moving forward with other Operations but possibly not.

NEW Mech Details

Like the other Munzee Mechz, the M0TH3RB04RD and Father TiM3 are temporary POBs that will remain on the map until they have been captured 5 times. In addition, as a tPOB, upon capture you have the chance to earn 1 Sham Rock Credit.

M0TH3RB04RD Father TiM3
Points Points
  • Deploy: 500
  • Capture: 250
  • CapOn: 100
  • Burnt (5th Cap): 500
  • Deploy: 500
  • Capture: 250
  • CapOn: 100
  • Dizzy (5th Cap): 500
Landing Pads Landing Pads

You can find these parental units checking up on the landing pads above every 6 hours or when captured.

M0TH3RB04RDs and Father TiM3s will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture M0TH3RB04RDs and Father TiM3s on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same M0TH3RB04RD or Father TiM3 visits you. M0TH3RB04RDs and Father TiM3s are non-blastable. They will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access M0TH3RB04RDs and Father TiM3s by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” filter.

When a M0TH3RB04RD is captured, it will scatter up to 3 C00K13S. Similarly, when a Father TiM3 is captured, it will scatter up to 3 Hourglasses.

C00K13 Hourglass
Points Points
  • Capture: 50
  • CapOn: 25-30
  • Capture: 50
  • CapOn: 25-30

These scatters will be visible to any player and will be deployed on the Mech owner’s account. This means that unlike Air Mystery Feathers/Boulders, there are CapOn points for the owner! They expire after 120 minutes and have a capture radius of 300 feet. These scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

Badges

As with other Munzee Mechz, the badge for deploying the M0TH3RB04RD and Father TiM3 depicts the Blueprints, and are shown below:

There are also badges for capturing a M0TH3RB04RD and capturing a Father TiM3. Since there’s only one badge in these lines, we’ll keep them a secret for now.

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

This message will self destruct in 3… 2… 1…

This NEW Mech is for All Who Love Rock ‘n’ Roll!

In our first Sham Rock Credits post, we mentioned that another tab in the Redeem Store would appear later on. As planned, this tab contains items that will remain available through 02:30 MHQ on Sunday, April 3rd (the expiration date we had set for Sham Rock Credits) — so you don’t need to worry about them going away like the items in the [Sham Rocks (Week X)] tab (which swaps out on 12:00 MHQ every Thursday)! Currently there’s only one item in there right now, so here’s everything you need to know!

Sham Rock n Rolla Details

Like the other Munzee Mechz, the Sham Rock n Rolla is a temporary POB that will remain on the map until it has been captured 5 times. In addition, as a tPOB, upon capture you have the chance to earn 1 Sham Rock Credit. At 12:00 MHQ today, it was made available in the Redeem Store in the [Sham Rocks Surprise] tab for 25 SRC. If you decide to make the trade, a Sham Rock n Rolla will be automatically deployed on your account at once! You will also receive the Greenprint to rebuild it when you have earned enough Cogs in the future.

Points You can find these charismatic cyborgs playing at the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:
  • Deploy: 733
  • Capture: 150-250
  • CapOn: 133-173
  • Smashed (5th Cap): 500

When a Sham Rock n Rolla is captured, it will scatter up to 3 Blarney Beats.

Points Additional Info
  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 25 points
  • Visible to any player
  • Deployed on the Sham Rock n Rolla owner’s account.
  • They expire after 120 minutes and have a capture radius of 300 feet.
  • You’ll be able to use Rover Treats to capture them.
  • These scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

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

Badges

Deploying a Sham Rock n Rolla will earn you the corresponding Greenprint badge, which you can see below. There is also a badge that you can earn by capturing a Sham Rock n Rolla — but since there’s only one badge in this line, we’ll keep it a secret for now.

Sham Rock n Rolla Greenprints- Deploy 1 Sham Rock n Rolla Munzee.

We hope you enjoy the sound of Sham Rock n Rolla’s music!

Munzee on!

NEW St. Patrick’s Day Skins – Another Source of SRC!

With a Leprechaun and a Balor Cyclops already in the game, you’d think we’d tire of making Irish-themed myths. Think again! The rich culture gives us a lot of inspiration to draw from, and since we’ve embraced it as the theme for this month, new skins were the logical next step!

St. Patrick’s Day Skins

Like the Halloween skins, these skins are available in the Freeze Tag Store as a 3-Pack for $10! They will remain in the store until 23:59 MHQ on March 31st. You can shop them HERE!

Lady Leprechaun Oillipheist Hydra Far Darrig Faun
Landing Pads Landing Pads Landing Pads

If you don’t already own the base Myths, but are still interested in using these skins, here are the links to shop each one:

For more information on Skins, you can check out our Help Guide articles HERE and HERE.

Sham Rock Credits

You have the chance to earn 1 Sham Rock Credit upon capturing one of these skinned Myths. They don’t fall under the tPOB category, so we’ve added an entirely new source that you can earn SRC from! However, please note this will only apply in March. Once the month is over, you will no longer be able to earn SRC, as we stated in the original blog post.

We hope you look forward to seeing some new Myths on the map! Keep an eye on the Redeem Store as well… you never know what may show up!

Munzee on!
