Introducing the Water Mystery Munzee!

The floodgates have opened and the latest Elemental Munzee is now for sale- Welcome the Water Mystery Munzee!

This physical munzee type may hold the key to the Fountain of Youth, but it is not without its risks. When you cap a Water Mystery Munzee three water droplets will scatter to greenies within one mile of the surrounding area. When you cap the scattered droplet you have the chance of drinking pure water, toxic water or salt water. Depending on the cleanliness of the water you will either earn points, lose points, or nothing will happen.

The water will evaporate after two hours though so be quick! Water Mysteries will also attract Hydra Mythological Munzees soon as well.

Name: Water Mystery Munzee

Points:
Deploy: 50
Cap/CapOn: Split of 60 with min of 5.

When captured, three water droplets spread on greenies within a mile.

These have three outcomes:

  • Pure Water: Cap: 50, CapOn: 10
  • Salt Water: Cap: 0, CapOn: 0
  • Toxic Water: Cap: -5, CapOn: 10

Availability

Water Mystery Munzees are available NOW in the Munzee Online Store. They are physical stickers sold in blocks of 10 for $20 USD.

You can also stock up on Fire, Ice and Earth Mysteries in the Elemental Munzee Pak which will include 10 Fire, Ice and Earth Mystery Munzees for $40. You can also find these in the Munzee Online Store.

Capturing Water Mystery Munzees will also help count toward the new Elemental Munzee badges too!

Have fun, and #MunzEE on! #E1EW

Munzee’s Monthly Giveaway Video Contest!

You may know Daniel Hammock as “hksfarm,” “Support,” or “The Ban Hammer” of Munzee, but did you know he’s quite the Youtube video connoisseur?

Hksfarm hosts the “Munzee’s Monthly Giveaway” video contest where players around the world submit Munzee-themed videos for a chance to win prizes. If you haven’t already you should join his Facebook group and join in on the fun!

The rules are simple:

  • hksfarm posts the theme for month in the “Munzee’s Monthly Giveaway” Facebook group.
  • Players film and edit a Munzee video relating to that theme and upload it to Youtube.
  • Once it’s uploaded, players share it in the Facebook group and their name will be added into the prize drawing.
  • On the last day of the month, submissions will be final and hksfarm will draw a name from those that submitted a video. 

In addition for a chance to win prizes, players will also earn a sweet Unicorn badge for participating and the winner will receive the coveted Golden Unicorn badge! To qualify for the badge and giveaway, videos MUST be on YouTube.com and link posted in a separate post, also post your username. No skill or expensive camera equipment are needed because the final drawing is random. 

This month’s challenge is to share a video of a deployed munzee in the dark with the moon in the footage, so get ready to adventure through the night!

Flat Robs in June & July

We thought it would be nice to update everyone on a few upcoming times Rob will be out of the office, and therefore Flat Rob will be coming out to play! The July dates will give everyone a chance to plan ahead. We hope everyone enjoys seeing Flat Rob on the map. Stay tuned for more announcements soon about some *events you’ll be able to meet him (and Matt) at. Flat Robs may appear in the store sporadically during these times with no warning or additional blog posts. Additional dates for FR (and FM) to join the map are still being worked on for July and August! (Maybe more in June too?)

Jun 8 – 13
July 4 – 16
July 21 – 23
July 28 – 31

Munzee On!

*Hint: Germany and Finland – get ready!

Munzee Newsletter: May 2017 Wrap-Up

In May Munzee was busy moving into our new offices, but that’s not to say we didn’t keep our players busy too. Take a look back on some of the things that happened last month and what to expect this month as well!

We’ve spent the last couple months getting the ALL NEW Munzee Headquarters up and running! We have upgraded our offices to a much larger space which is ideal for our constantly growing staff. The new building is located just a few miles from our previous headquarters too, so we still get to call McKinney, TX home.

Some of our players helped us break in the new location with our MH-New Open House event and they even got to see us monkeying around first hand!


Flat Matt Has Hit The Map! 

In November 2015 Flat Rob was released and he’s been traveling the world ever since. All that travel can be a bit lonely though, so we’re excited to release a similarly two-dimensional friend- Flat Matt!

Although Flat Rob comes out to play when Rob is traveling, Flat Matts will be live on the map during days with specific sporting events.


Hail Hydra

The Hydra is the latest Mythological Munzee, and the second in our Classical Myth line. Not much is known about this many-headed beast, although it is said to guard the fabled Fountain Of Youth.

Find a Hydra near you on the Specials Map! 


Victorious Vacation

The new Timeshare Munzee is the latest in our Destination line of munzees alongside the Motel, Hotel and Virtual Resort. This physical credit item features 5 Rooms so the first 5 players to cap the Timeshare get a room deployed. Here’s the kicker though, Rooms only stay deployed for 30 days!

Join Rockin’ Rob Vardeman and get your Timeshare in the Munzee Store TODAY!


Totally Tubular Turtles

To celebrate World Turtle Day on May 23rd, Munzee released turtle specials from May 19th through the 28th. These shell-shocking specials were a big hit and helped raise awareness about our slow-crawling friends.

Show your support and buy a World Turtle Day Coin HERE! 


Coming in June…

– We’ve gone green to try and clean up the map.

– Don’t forget to keep hydrated.

Flat Matt has hit the map!

Flat Matts are now officially for sale in the Munzee Online Store! Flat Matt virtual credits are $5 each and we have also decreased the price of Flat Robs to $4. You can purchase them both HERE! (Side Note: Timeshares are also for sale HERE!)

Although Flat Rob comes out to play when Rob is traveling, Flat Matts will be live on the map during days with specific sporting events. Flat Matt is a big fan of all sorts of sports, but he is especially fond of teams in the Dallas-Fort Worth, TX area. To kick things off, Flat Matt is spending the weekend watching baseball with Flat Rob so both will be on the map from now until Sunday, June 4th at 23:59 MHQ.

To give you a bit of an idea of when Flat Matt will be on the map, here is the schedule for the month of June:

2017-06-01 12:00:00 – 2017-06-04 23:59:59
2017-06-06 00:00:01 – 2017-06-07 23:59:59
2017-06-16 00:00:01 – 2017-06-22 23:59:59

Please note that all scheduled times are based on MHQ time and are subject to change.

Here is the general breakdown of Flat Matts:

Points:

Deploy – 19 Points
Cap/CapOn – Split 92 points with a minimum of 10 points.

Proximity: 

Flat Matts’ proximity is not affected by other munzees except other Flat Matts and Flat Robs. Flat Matts must be 50ft from other players’ deploys and 150ft from your own deploys.

You’ll also be able to earn a variety of badges for capturing and deploying Flat Matts.

Deploy Badges:

Thank you all for showing Flat Matt and Flat Rob a good time on their travels! Munzee on!
