Camp Counselor Specials Are Making a Special Visit to a Munzee Near You!

While waiting to receive your nominations for Camp Counselors for July’s POTM, we needed somebody to hold down the fort at Camp Munzee in the meantime. Who better than our own AlternaMyths, who boast not only a keen understanding of the game (being part of it themselves) and a great rapport with MHQ staff, but also a deep connection with the great outdoors!

Free from their counseling duties at Camp Munzee, Camp Counselor specials are now live on the map for everyone and will remain available until September 9 at 23:59 MHQ. You can use the “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters to more easily view them on the map. Meet each of the counselors below!

Camp Counselors

There will be a total of 396 Camp Counselor Specials available for capture — that breaks down to 99 of each type. More Camp Counselors may emerge as the need arises for campers all over the world! These are attracted to both Physical or Virtual Magnets on their respective landing pads. These are officially tPOBs on the Munzee account and are not blastable.

Landing Pads:

Bounce Times:

  • every 4 hours

Points:

  • Capture: 199
  • CapOn: 19

Badges

There are two lines of badges related to Camp Counselor specials.

The first line is based on overall Camp Counselor captures. These badges will show you the Counselors in action guiding various camp activities! The first badge in this line is called Archery Allies and is earned by capping nine Counselors of any type!

The second line of badges is based on each of the four Camp Counselor specials. Make sure to cap at least one of each special so you can start your day off right!

You can sneak a peek at the first of each badge line below:

Please note that although these specials are based on AlternaMyth designs, these are unique tPOBs and they will not count toward the AlternaMyth Wrangler badge or any other Myth capture badges.

Camp Competition

While the Camp Counselors are certainly a part of Camp Munzee, capturing them will NOT earn your Camp points in our ongoing Camp Competition. We’re sticking to the water balloons and flags as outlined in our original post!

We hope you enjoy meeting the representative Camp Counselor for your Camp!

Munzee on!

Combat Cabin Fever by Capturing Competing Camp Specials!

Whether or not you’re able to attend a Camp Munzee event near you, we want everyone to join in on the fun for our 9th Birthday! Get ready for some friendly competition as we pit our players against each other in Water Wars and Capture Zee Flag with Competing Camp specials!

Camp Competition

We’ve divided up active players randomly into 4 “Camps” to compete for prizes by capturing Competing Camp specials!

Will you wander into the wilderness with Camp Cap-A-Lot?

Perhaps you’re building pillow forts at home with Camp QRantine!

If it’s a bit chillier on your side of the world maybe you’re with Camp FrEEZ!

Or maybe you’re ready for interstellar exploration with Camp KenneZEE?

It’s up to you to lead your camp towards victory! This competition will be based on your camp’s overall Water Balloon and Flag bouncer captures. You can find out more about these specials below.

There will be prizes at stake each week, with the largest prizes awarded at the final check-in. Active players in all camps will receive a prize each week, but, as you may expect, the best prize will go to players in the 1st Place camp.

We don’t want to spoil all the prizes just yet, but we’re excited to announce that the winning camp overall will get, among other prizes, double points on certain Myth captures for a whole month!

The weekly winnings check-in schedule is as follows:

  • Thursday, July 16th at 12:00 MHQ
  • Thursday, July 23rd at 12:00 MHQ
  • Thursday, July 30th at 12:00 MHQ
  • Tuesday, August 11th at 12:00 MHQ — Final Award ceremony!

We’ll post on social media about the results each week, but to aid you in tracking your team’s progress we’ve partnered with CuppaZee to develop a leaderboard special for this event! You can check it out HERE!

Water Wars and Capture Zee Flag

Competing Camp specials are broken down into two different types of bouncers: Water Balloons and Camp Flags. Both types of specials are now live on the map for everyone and will remain available until August 9 at 23:59 MHQ. You can use the “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters to more easily view them on the map. There are quite a few different specials, so check out a breakdown of each below!

Water Balloons

There will be 1,596 Water Balloon Specials available for capture on the map — that breaks down to 399 of each type. These are attracted to Virtual Magnets. None of these specials are blastable.

For the Camp Competition leaderboard each Water Balloon capture will count as 1 point. Please note that this is different than the actual capture points a player will earn. This secondary point structure is just for tallying the Camp leaderboard.

Landing Pads:

  • All Virtual Colors

Bounce Time:

  • every 4 hours

Points:

  • Capture: 99
  • CapOn: 19

Camp Flags

In addition to the Water Balloons there will also be four rare Camp Flag Specials bouncing around the map! There will be a total of 36 Camp Flag Specials available for capture — that breaks down to 9 of each type. More Camp Flags may be crafted as Camp Directors see fit! These are attracted to both Physical or Virtual Magnets on their respective landing pads. These are officially tPOBs on the Munzee Camp account and are not blastable.

Since these are more rare each Camp Flag capture will count as 5 points on the Camp Competition leaderboard. As stated above please note that this is different than the actual capture points a player will earn. This secondary point structure is just for tallying the Camp leaderboard.

Landing Pads:

Bounce Times:

  • every 2 hours

Points:

  • Capture: 199
  • CapOn: 19

Badges

There are three lines of badges related to Competing Camp specials.

The first line is based on the Camp you’ve been assigned to — think of it as a Membership Badge! These badges feature a shirt with your camp’s logo so wear it with pride!

The second line is based on overall Water Balloon captures. These badges will give you some high-utility upgrades to your watery weapons. You can see the first badge in this line below:

Little Water Pistol – Capture at least one Water Balloon special of any type.

The third line of badges is based on capping unique Camp Flags. There will be one badge featuring the hidden home base for each camp. Make sure to cap at least one of each flag so you can be the king or queen of all four camps! You can sneak a peek at Camp Cap-A-Lot’s home base badge below:

Cap-A-Lot Cabin- Capture at least one Camp Cap-A-Lot Red Flag

Help cheer on your camp by purchasing Camp Spirit merch! The online collection includes a number of different products featuring the four camp logos. Whether you want to wear camp style with a shirt, or sip camp spirit with a tin mug, we’ve got you covered! Check out the whole collection HERE!

We hope this injects a bit of fun into your summer and gets you into the spirit of our Camp-themed 9th Birthday Celebration! If you love this artwork, look for it and so much more on our sister app, WallaBee!

Munzee on!

Celebrate the Heroes of Today With These Soaring Specials!

With both National Teacher’s Day AND National Nurse’s Day falling on the first week of May (not to mention Mother’s Day the week after!) we thought it would be a great idea to have our next specials honor essential workers! Their work makes it possible for many of us to function while staying safe at home, putting themselves at risk. Since “essential worker” sounds a bit bland, we decided to call them Hometown Heroes instead!

The first of our Hometown Heroes specials have just launched, at 12:00 MHQ time on May 18. The first icon is the one on the far left, Stay Safe. The quantities of masks will increase at random times, once launched, until they leave the map at 23:59 MHQ time on June 7! The hero masks will bounce every 6 hours or when capped. The heroes themselves will bounce around every 4 hours or when capped. The Stay Safe icon will bounce every 2 hours or when capped.

Each of the 5 mask icons correspond to a different hero! Will you be able to collect them all?

Points

  • Capture: 200 points for each mask, 150 points for the Stay Safe icon, 100 points for each hero.
  • CapOn: 50 points for ALL Hometown Hero bouncers

The heroes will bounce to all virtual colors. The mask icons will bounce to amethyst, sapphire, air mystery, citrine, onyx, electric mystery, and Skyland. The Stay Safe icon will only bounce to the white virtual.
ALL Hometown Hero specials will be attracted to Virtual Magnets, available from the Freeze Tag Online Store.
You can access the Hometown Hero specials under the “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Specials” filters.
These virtual specials are not blastable.

Badges

There is also a line featuring 5 new badges to earn by capturing some of the different types of specials. They are not all available at the time of launch but will be added throughout the first week. We’re revealing one of these badges below:

The Super Stamper!- Capture at least one Delivery Mask special.

Can you collect all 5 badges? Cap as many of these specials as you can to set yourself up for success!

Munzee on!

World Laughter Day Specials — Because We All Need a Good Laugh Right Now!

We’re pretty sure most people have a bad case of cabin fever, so what better way to take your mind off of it than with some humor? World Laughter Day specials are out NOW, featuring jokes that have passed our staff’s (somewhat low) standards! (Note: Freeze Tag is not liable for any head injuries sustained after reading a corny World Laughter Day joke ?.)

Our World Laughter Day specials will launch at 10:00 MHQ time on May 1, with 503 hitting the map until 23:59 MHQ time on May 17! Though there will only be one icon shown on the map, there are a possibility of 10 different icons that will not be visible until captured, similar to how the Greeting Cards work. Also similar to our Magic 8 Ball special last year! They will bounce around every 303 minutes or when capped.

Each of the 10 icons will correspond to a different joke! Will you be able to collect them all?

Points

  • Capture: 53 points
  • CapOn: 35 points

These Virtual Munzees will not be blastable. They will bounce to all virtual colors and be attracted to Virtual Magnets, available from the Freeze Tag Online Store. You can access the World Laughter Day specials under the “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Specials” filters.

Badges

There is also a line featuring 5 new badges to earn based off captures of World Laughter Day specials. The first badge in the series appears as follows:

Cheesy Chuckle- Capture 1 Joke Special of any type

One special badge can only be obtained on World Laughter Day (May 3) which you can see below:

Dose of Laughter- Capture at least one Joke Special of any type on World Laughter Day- May 3rd, 2020 (MHQ time zone).

It’s up to you to figure out the requirements for the remaining 3 badges! Cap as many of these specials as you can to set yourself up for success!

Munzee on!

Team USA Earns Gold for Coupe du Munzee Victory!

The Coupe du Munzee specials might have left the map on July 7 following the conclusion of the Women’s World Cup, but we told you that wouldn’t be the end of these specials! Please welcome the Coupe Champion Nomad to the map at 15:00 MHQ time to honor our champion, Team USA!

 

This golden icon will operate similarly to our Nomad Munzees, which are rare bouncers that travel all over the map. Unlike our Coupe du Munzee specials, it will be a permanent munzee, meaning this physical bouncing game piece is here to stay! There will be 11 of the Coupe Champion Nomads on the map, and they will bounce to Greenies every 12 hours or when capped. The number of Nomads signifies the 11 players on the field during a game of football/soccer.

Coupe Champion Nomads work a bit differently though. When you cap any of the 11 Coupe Champion Nomads you have a chance of earn one of 23 different icons featuring the jersey number of a member of the victorious Team USA! Similar to the Magic 8 Ball Specials, you don’t know which number you’ll get so cap these rare superstars any chance you can!

Points:

  • Capture: 500
  • CapOn: 250

These munzees can be captured on previously capped and owned munzees. They will be attracted to physical Munzee Magnets. You can access the Coupe Champion Nomads by turning on your All Expiring Specials and All Limited Edition Specials filters.

Badge

There will be a special badge to earn upon capturing at least one Coupe Champion Nomad. These new bouncers will also count toward the other Nomad badge lines as well.

Coupe Du Munzee Champions!

We would also like to take a moment to acknowledge all of the teams that participated in the Coupe, especially the Netherlands team that put up such a great fight in the championship game. As a worldwide game ourselves we value the merits of international competition, and we had a ton of fun watching all of the games alongside our own international players. Now get out there and cap the Coupe Champion Nomad to celebrate the victory of Team USA! Even if you weren’t rooting for them, you have to admire the athletic achievement of the fierce women of Team USA!

Munzee on!

Coupe du Munzee Icon Updates!

It’s time for a map change! The Women’s World Cup Semifinals have officially determined which two teams will be battling it out for third place and which teams will have the chance to compete for the championship! We thought it was only fitting to reflect this on the map for our Coupe du Munzee specials, with our next icon change taking place on Friday, July, 5 at 00:01 MHQ time!

The Semifinals saw teams USA and Netherlands advancing to the finals, while England and Sweden will be competing for third place following their losses. However, rather than reduce England and Sweden to one icon per team as we have done with the other eliminated teams, these team icons will remain on the map at 34 icons per team! After all, these teams battled through quite the challenge and deserve recognition! Meanwhile, our top two teams have seen their icons increase from 11 to 30 to 50 to 75. Teams USA and Netherlands will now both have 120 icons per team to celebrate their amazing athletic achievements!

That means the Coupe du Munzee distribution will be as follows:

Top two teams, 120 icons per team:

  • USA
  • Netherlands

Third and fourth place teams, 34 icons per team:

  • England
  • Sweden

20 eliminated teams, 1 icon per team:

  • Germany
  • Norway
  • France
  • Italy
  • Australia
  • Cameroon
  • Brazil
  • Spain
  • China
  • Japan
  • Nigeria
  • Canada
  • South Korea
  • South Africa
  • Jamaica
  • Scotland
  • New Zealand
  • Thailand
  • Argentina
  • Chile

You will have until July 7 at 23:59 MHQ time to cap the Coupe du Munzee specials before they leave the map! There will also be a special surprise celebration to look forward to for the winning team icon! Stay tuned for more details, and remember that physical Munzee Magnets can help with capping those elusive team icons!

Have you earned all 7 Coupe du Munzee badges?!

Munzee on!

Our Magic 8 Ball specials will launch at 00:01 MHQ time on July 3, with 888 hitting the map until 23:59 MHQ time on July 31! Though there will only be one icon shown on the map, there are a possibility of 8 different icons revealed after this special is captured. Each icon will correspond with a different saying that will not be visible until captured, similar to how the Gleaming Pouch Creatures work. They will bounce around every 6 hours or when capped.

Dying to know what capture messages could be in store for you? We’ll give you a sneak peak, but you’re going to have to get busy capping to discover the other 7 options:

Points

These Virtual Munzees will not be blastable. They will bounce to all virtual colors and be attracted to Virtual Magnets, available from the Freeze Tag Online Store. You can access the Magic 8 Ball specials under the “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Specials” filters.

Badges & Personals

There is also a line featuring —you guessed it!— 8 new badges to earn based off number of captures of Magic 8 Ball specials. The first badge in the series appears as follows:

Magic 8 Ball– Capture 1 Magic 8 Ball special of any type.

The other seven badges may not be as easy to figure out as you think, so keep capping all month long to figure out the rest! Finally, we are happy to offer a fun collection of Magic 8 Ball Personal Tags available for sale in the Freeze Tag Online Store starting tomorrow at 10:00 MHQ time! Here is a sneak peak:

There will be 8 different Magic 8 Ball Personal Tag responses. Players can either purchase an individual tag for $8 to receive a surprise saying or purchase the full set of 8 for $48. You can shop the Personal Tags HERE!

This special, of course, is brought to you by Munzee’s 8th birthday! This is a month for celebration as we live it up in the #8zees!

Munzee on!

Coupe du Munzee Semifinals Update!

Our fourth and final  Coupe du Munzee specials icon adjustment is here! Following the Round of 16 and Quarterfinals game updates, which both saw eliminated teams reduced to 1 icon each, there will be another map change on Tuesday, July 2 at 00:01 MHQ time to mark the Semifinals!

The Women’s World Cup is officially advancing to the Semifinals, which means that 4 more teams have been eliminated. They will join the 16 previously eliminated teams with having only 1 physical icon per team on the map. Meanwhile, the teams still in the game have seen an increase from 11 to 30 to 50 Coupe du Munzee icons per team, and those numbers aren’t slowing down! The 4 advancing teams will see their icons increased to 75 per team!

The 4 remaining Coupe du Munzee teams, reflecting the results of the Women’s World Cup, are as follows:

  • England
  • United States
  • Netherlands
  • Sweden

The following 20 teams have officially been eliminated and reduced to 1 physical icon each:

  • Germany
  • Norway
  • France
  • Italy
  • Australia
  • Cameroon
  • Brazil
  • Spain
  • China
  • Japan
  • Nigeria
  • Canada
  • South Korea
  • South Africa
  • Jamaica
  • Scotland
  • New Zealand
  • Thailand
  • Argentina
  • Chile

Remember, you will have until July 7 at 23:59 MHQ time to cap the Coupe du Munzee specials before they leave the map. You will, however, have a special surprise celebration to look forward to for the winning team icon! Stay tuned for more details and game updates! In the meantime, you can continue working your way to earning all 7 Coupe du Munzee badges!

Which Coupe du Munzee is eluding you? Better cap fast! Remember that physical Munzee Magnets can help!

Munzee on!

Coupe du Munzee Quarterfinals Update!

It’s almost time for the third icon adjustment for our Coupe du Munzee specials! Following the Round of 16 game update, which saw eliminated teams reduced to 1 icon each and advancing teams increased to 30 icons each, there will be another map change on Thursday, June 27 at 00:01 MHQ time to mark the Quarterfinals!

As the Women’s World Cup moves into the Quarterfinals, 8 more teams have been eliminated. That means that there will only be 1 physical icon per eliminated team on the map. However, your odds of capping one of the advancing teams just went up! All 8 advancing teams will see their icons increase to 50 per team!

The 8 advancing Coupe du Munzee teams, reflecting the results of the Women’s World Cup, are as follows:

  • Norway
  • England
  • France
  • United States
  • Italy
  • Netherlands
  • Germany
  • Sweden

The following teams have been eliminated in the Round of 16 and reduced to 1 physical icon each:

  • Australia
  • Cameroon
  • Brazil
  • Spain
  • China
  • Japan
  • Nigeria
  • Canada

The following teams were previously eliminated and will remain at 1 icon per team:

  • South Korea
  • South Africa
  • Jamaica
  • Scotland
  • New Zealand
  • Thailand
  • Argentina
  • Chile

Schedule Updates!

While players can be treated to the new icon increase for the time being, keep in mind that only the 4 teams advancing to the Semifinals will remain in abundance on July 2 starting at 00:01 MHQ time. Since we made some updates to allow the eliminated teams to remain on the map with 1 icon a piece (rather than remove them entirely), we’ll provide an updated schedule here:

  • Teams advancing to the Quarterfinals will see an icon increase, while all eliminated teams will be reduced to one icon:
    • June 27 (00:01 MHQ time) – July 1 (23:59 MHQ time)
    • 8 team icons abundant, 16 icons reduced to one per team
  • Teams advancing to the Semifinals will see an icon increase, while all eliminated teams will be reduced to one icon:
    • July 2 (00:01 MHQ time) – July 7 (23:59 MHQ time)
    • 4 team icons abundant, 20 icons reduced to one per team

That means that all teams who make it to the final two matches will remain on the map from July 2 until the conclusion of the Coupe du Munzee specials on July 7 at 23:59 MHQ time, at which point all icons will leave the map. However, after the Coupe du Munzee specials leave the map, we will have a special surprise celebration for the winning icon! Stay tuned for more details!

How many Coupe du Munzee badges have you earned so far? Hopefully your team is still in the race!

Munzee on!
