We’re proud to announce the release of a limited number of 6th Birthday Comic Book Special coinz! These golden brass coins look awesome and are a great keepsake from a SUPER month. Those in attendance of our MHQ Birthday Bash will be the first to to have the chance to buy them, so be sure to RSVP.
6th Birthday Comic Book Coin
Along with the Birthday coinz we are also releasing a Recycle coin and a ZeeOps coin. Remember you can use coinz to track specific munzee captures which is perfect when hunting recycles or completing ZeeOps missions. The Recycle coin features the Munzee Recycle icon and the ZeeOps coin features the ZeeOps logo inlaid upon a super unique white metal. Both are great additions to any coin collection!

All three coinz will be available on Friday at MHQ Birthday Bash, but will then be for sale to the public Monday at 3 PM CST. Everyone should be on the lookout for even more items on sale Monday too!
We hope to see a bunch of our players at the event tomorrow, but either way we hope you all enjoy these awesome keepsakes!
We’re a third of the way through Birthday Month, and we’ve had some great events and pictures to go with them! We asked for your photo submissions, and you’ve stepped up! Check out the pictures we’ve received so far!
Don’t forget to send in your pictures to iloveyou@munzee.com with the subject “6th Birthday Gallery” so we can feature your pictures!
Matt here, and I just wanted to talk about my trip to Wisconsin and Massachusetts this past weekend.
First off, I want to thank all of the hosts and attendees of the four events I visited. It’s always great to see old friends and meet new ones, and these events were great!
The events in Appleton were the first hosted in Wisconsin by MHQ staff, and I can guarantee we’ll be going back. Everyone was extremely accommodating and welcoming. From a wedding party crashing our group photo to receiving a gift to represent the cheese heads for my office, there was no shortage of fun during the weekend.
The next morning, I flew to Massachusetts just in time for an event at Kimball Farm. Players from states all down the east coast showed up to take up the challenge set by the hosts, and we all had a great time mingling and playing Munzee.
I can’t wait to see more players throughout the rest of the month! You can check out the full schedule of events that Rob and I will be attending on the podcast, but next up for me (after the MHQ birthday event) is Florida!
Last year, we asked you to share your pictures from birthday events and Munzee outings during Birthday Month. We had a great response and put together a gallery showing off the events and players that make this game and community amazing. This year, we want to make an even better one!
If you have a picture (or pictures) that you would like added to our Spectacular 6th Birthday Photo Gallery, send an email to iloveyou@munzee.com with the subject “6th Birthday Gallery”. Please include the following:
The high quality photo(s)
Your username and real name
A description of the photo(s)
These pictures can be of events, scenic views from munzee locations, or fun things you find while searching for munzees during Birthday Month. We will publish the gallery and continue adding to it throughout the month.
Can you feel the attraction? We’re proud to announce a new gameplay feature called Magnets!
These brand new items are temporary credits you can use to attract Seasonal Specials and Mythological Munzees for a set amount of time. It’s easy, you just Magnetize a greenie of your choosing and that munzee will then attract up to 3 specials or myths for up to one hour! The magnet expires at the end of the hour or after the 3rd capture.
Think of it like a temporary shamrock or elemental that also attracts seasonal specials like the Birthday Comic Book specials. So now if you live in a less populated Munzee area you can increase your chances of capping specials and myths!
Magnetizing a munzee from the app is easy!
Choose the Greenie you want to magnetize.
Go to the Munzee Details page.
Click on the three dots icon in the upper righthand corner.
Click “Magnetize” and confirm.
Wait for the fun to begin!
You can also Magnetize a munzee from the web!
Go to munzee.com/map
Click on the munzee you want to Magnetize and go to the Munzee’s page
Scroll down and on the lower righthand side is a button that say “Magnetize”
Click confirm and go find that Munzee!
Click the image to enlarge it.
A few things to note:
There is a limit of 10 magnets per player account purchased per 10 days.
When a Magnetized munzee brings a special or a myth anyone can cap it, so be quick or be nice and share with friends!
You’ll be able to Magnetize munzees you have already capped as well as your own munzees since you can cap specials on those.
You can see how many Magnets you have on the Credits page of the app or web.
Magnets will go on sale in August. Premium Members can expect some magnetic attraction next month too.
Magnet credits are currently exclusive to Physical MunzPak subscribers until they go on sale next month. You’ll receive ten Munzee magnets in your July Physical MunzPak subscription so if you haven’t signed up do it NOW!
Even though the Magnets are currently exclusive to MunzPak subscribers, it’s our birthday so we wanted to share the love a bit. Event hosts who are throwing Munzee Birthday party packages will also have the opportunity to buy Magnets to be used at their events. This will help bring some fun for your Event guests! You need to email Louise if you are interested in adding these to your event but remember she is cycling this weekend so don’t expect an immediate response.
***Event Details Edit*** Magnets may be purchased by event hosts. They are added to the event account only and event pricing is $10 for 10 magnets (maximum of 10 per event account).
We’re excited to see how you all use Magnets to your advantage! Happy hunting and Munzee on!
It’s hard to believe that it’s already been six years since Munzee was launched. It’s surpassed anything the co-founders could have imagined as a game, company, and community. As you probably have noticed, we tend to celebrate, especially our birthday. So take a peek at what we have going on for our Spectacular 6th Birthday!
Specials
Like most 6 year olds, we love comics and superheroes so be prepared to cap special comic books! Starting tomorrow (July 1st) at 00:01 MHQ time, 2011 Spectacular 6th Birthday Special icons will be on the map. These icons will bounce on greenies every 6 hours or when captured.
When captured, these will scatter three onomatopoeia icons within one mile for two hours or until capped.
Each of these are worth 17 Capture points and 11 CapOn points for the host owner. You CAN capture these on your own greenies, and all four specials will count towards the new Specials Badges line.
The scattered icons will also have another surprise. Each of the three icons will award a different badge. Your goal is to collect all three.
Earned by capturing the BAM! icon.
Earned by capturing the POW! icon.
Earned by capturing the BANG! icon.
When you collect all three of the badges, you will also earn the completed comic book page.
Earned by capturing all three of the scattered icons.
These icons will be on the map until July 31st at 23:59 MHQ time.
Flat Robs and Flat Matts

21st-23rd

Birthday Sale
During Birthday Month, we will also be having a variety of sales. Starting tomorrow (July 1st) at 00:01 MHQ time, the following items will be on sale:
With a lot more space for fun activities in MHQ 3.0, we’ve set up an awesome podcast studio! We figured we should probably get around to using it though, so what better time than for some Birthday Month announcements? We had a few technical difficulties at the beginning (give us a break, it’s been a while since we’ve done this!) but the audio quality gets a lot better about 40 seconds in.
Agents, due to your hard work in June the contaminated outlier strain of Evolution Munzees has been controlled. Despite investigations into what caused the issue, there have been few leads as to who was behind the leak. ZeeOps Agents must focus on forward though, so prepare for this month’s Operations.
Since the leaders of the Mean Green Gang have seemingly all been eradicated Director Zee has kicked off a probation program for former MGG members. The program has been named “Going Green.” He has requested that ZeeOps agents worldwide begin rounding up Mean Greenies to present them the opportunity to join forces. The program has been met with some resistance from both ZeeOps agents and former Mean Green Gang operatives though, so be careful.
July ZeeOps Operations are now live and you can begin planning your Missions to start on the following day. You can plan your Operations at munzee.com/ops/and purchase more ZeeCredin the Munzee Online Store.You can also track your Missions in the new Munzee app update.

We’re excited to announce the release of a new line of badges for capturingspecial seasonal munzees!
Nearly every month we release new limited time specials and we want to award our players for capturing these year round! In the past we have released hoverboards, groundhogs and much more so always be on the lookout for new, unique specials.
The Specials Badges are now LIVE and you can start earning them when the next special is released! These badges will NOT be retroactive, but moving forward every new seasonal special we release will count. They may not be totally retroactive, but these badges will include all captures from the World Turtle Day specials that went out in May.
You might also keep your eyes out, we hear someone’s birthday is coming up…
These badges will remain hidden so we can keep you guessing, but here is a look at the first badge:
