New Year’s Resolution Streak Badges!

With the new year nearly here, we’ve all got ways we’d like to better ourselves in 2019. Easier said than done, right? Well we know how tough it is to keep up with new year’s resolutions so we’ve put together a rewards system to help keep you on track! How you ask? By capping munzees of course!

We’re excited to announce that starting January 1st we’re launching monthly Capture Streak Badges focused on various New Year’s Resolutions. Similar to the Super Streak badges all you have to do is capture at least one munzee* each day for the entire month. If you can make it through the whole month you’ll be awarded a badge themed to that month’s resolution goal!

To kick things off we’re all going to try and eat better in January! Look, nobody likes french fries and desserts more than us, but we need a little more greenery in our lives! 

Did you know?

According to the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, just 1 in 10 adults in the US eat the recommended amount of fruit or vegetables? Depending on various factors federal guidelines recommend that adults eat at least 1½ to 2 cups per day of fruit and 2 to 3 cups per day of vegetables.  By having fruits and vegetables in your daily diet you can reduce the risk of many leading causes of illness and death, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, some cancers, and obesity. While some countries may have a better percentage of healthy eaters than the US we know there is always room for improvement!

The more you know, right?!

We know capping a munzee each day won’t magically make you eat better, but we hope as you work towards this capture streak you think about grabbing an apple on your way back! We’re all in this together and if nothing else it will help you get one step closer to the yearlong capture and deploy streak badges. We’ll have a different resolution badge design each month, but try and keep up with your resolutions throughout the year! We believe in you!

Here’s to 2019! Go green and Munzee on!

 

* In order to encourage active gameplay we will not count Social Munzees for these capture streaks. If you know you’ll be in an area without munzees plan ahead!

Announcing The End Of The Recycling Munzee

Despite years of “Going Green” and “Cleaning Up The Map” it’s time to announce the retirement of the Recycle program. Although this initiative to locating missing or uncapped Munzees had great intentions certain limitations have kept it from fulfilling its overall purpose.

To give all of our players a final chance to earn Recycle Badges we’ll celebrate one last round of trash pickup starting NOW until December 31, 2018 at 23:59 MHQ.

Remember that Recycles land on physical munzees that have not been capped in the last 365 days.

The munzees that are affected include:

  • All Physical Jewels
  • Clan Weapons
  • Greenies
  • Physical Mysteries
  • Premium Munzees

As we take Recycles to the curb, rest easy knowing we’re cooking up some great ideas on how to enhance our map maintenance. Here’s a hint… it definitely has something to do with ZeeQRew. No news yet and no promises on anything in the next 1,000 hours, but as always Munzee teaches patience!

Enjoy these last days of the year (and Recycles) and as always Munzee On!

With Christmas in the rearview mirror, we’re excited to announce a Boxing Day Sale, which will go live TODAY at 12:00 MHQ. The sale will continue until 12:00 MHQ tomorrow. To take advantage of this sale you’ll simply use the code “BOXINGDAY2018” at checkout and it will discount certain items by 18%.

You can find more details of specific products on sale below, but we also have a new product to announce!

FANCY FLAT ROB:

After his stint as Flat Santa, Flat Rob thinks it’s time he step up his game! The new Fancy Flat Robs are bouncing munzees that work like Myths and Pouch Creatures based on variant designs of the original Flat Rob. Fancy Flat Robs will bounce to regular Flat Robs and regular Virtuals with a green color credit (listed below), and an additional other type based on the variant. These will bounce every 12 hours or when captured.

There will be three Fancy Flat Rob variants available, but players will only be able to own one variant type. Fancy Flat Robs will cost $25 and they will have the ability to be nudged by the owner. There will be a limited number of each type available. These are not LIVE yet, but they will be available HERE at 12:00 MHQ.

Points for Fancy Flat Robs are as follows:

Deployment: 500 points
Capture: Random amount between 200 – 300 points
CapOn: Random amount between 50 – 100 points

All Fancy Flat Robs will bounce to the following:

  • Flat Rob Virtual Munzees (when active on the map)
  • Green Colored Virtuals
    • VIRTUAL SEA GREEN MUNZEES
    • VIRTUAL GRANNY SMITH APPLE MUNZEES
    • VIRTUAL GREEN MUNZEES
    • VIRTUAL FOREST GREEN MUNZEES
    • VIRTUAL ASPARAGUS MUNZEES
    • VIRTUAL OLIVE GREEN MUNZEES
    • VIRTUAL YELLOW GREEN MUNZEES
    • VIRTUAL GREEN YELLOW MUNZEES
    • VIRTUAL SPRING GREEN MUNZEES
  • Treehouse and Skyland (as of October 29, 2020 UPDATE)

 

Cold Flat Rob:
Sometimes Flat Rob likes to travel to the mountains and hit the slopes! This variant of Fancy Flat Rob bounces to Flat Robs, Green Colored Virtuals and Ice Mystery Munzees.

Beach Flat Rob:
Flat Rob has been known to kick back with his toes in the ocean on more than one occasion. This variant of Fancy Flat Rob bounces to Flat Robs, Green Colored Virtuals and Water Mystery Munzees.

Tux Flat Rob:
Every now and then Flat Rob likes to treat himself to the finer things in life. This variant of Fancy Flat Rob bounces to Flat Robs, Green Colored Virtuals and Jewel Munzees.

  • Amethyst (V)
  • Sapphire (V)
  • Diamond
  • Ruby
  • Pink Diamond
  • Topaz
  • Aquamarine

We’re working on a new line of badges for capturing each variant type which will be released soon, but you WILL receive a unique badge for deploying a Fancy Flat Rob variant. Please note it is the same badge for all three variants, so you won’t miss out since you are restricted to one Fancy Flat Rob type.

We’re excited to bring a new gameplay aspect to Flats and give you even more crazy creatures to chase after! To celebrate, regular Flat Robs will be 18% off when you use the discount code at checkout. Please note that the Fancy Flat Rob will not be eligible for the 18% discount, but you can still check out with it in the basket. The discount will just not be applied to that item.

BOXING DAY 2018 SALES:

You can see the Boxing Day 2018 Sale Collection HERE and remember you have to use the code “BOXINGDAY2018” at checkout to get the 18% discount on these select items.

Physical Items: 

Virtual Items: 

We hope you all have had a great holiday with your families! There’s still a bit of time left in 2018 so those who purchased a Countdown Calendar better pay attention to your emails. Thank you all for a great year!

Munzee on!

NYZ Countdown Calendar- ON SALE NOW!

With 10 days left of the Munzee Advent Calendar there are still plenty of surprises ahead, but why stop at Christmas!? Due to the overwhelming positive response to our Christmas Advent Calendar we’re excited to announce a New Year’s Zee Countdown Calendar is now for sale!

This abbreviated calendar program will start December 26th and countdown the days until New Year’s Eve. Once again we won’t spoil the surprise, but you can expect a variety of virtual products, special opportunities, limited edition badges and more!

Count down each day as the NYZ pin drops closer to New Year’s Eve. Since there will only be six days left in the year when this starts we’ve loaded more rewards into each day, which will be given at 00:01 MHQ daily beginning December 26. Due to feedback from our Christmas Advent Calendar this program will not feature any discount codes and access to special events will start immediately instead of having to wait 24 hours. Additionally there will be no physical product shipped, therefore no shipping charge.

NYZ Countdown Calendars are available now for $15 in the Freeze Tag Online Store. These will be available for purchase until the 25th, but they will not be for sale again. Countdown Calendars have over $30 in value just for the products you’ll receive and that doesn’t include the bonuses. This is a great deal! Please note that you did NOT have to buy a Christmas Advent Calendar to purchase a Countdown Calendar. Although they’re releasing back to back, these are separate programs. There are currently no plans for a similar program during the first half of 2019 so this is your chance to continue, or join, the fun! All participants will receive the special “Countdown” title in app and online.

You can purchase the NYZ Countdown Calendar here: https://store.freezetag.com/products/countdown-calendar

Thank you all for your continued support during this holiday zee-son. We’ve all had so much fun in 2018, but let’s end it with a blast!

Munzee on!

MHQ Bash 6 dates and more!

Hey everybody, as 2018 comes to a close we have some announcements for MHQ hosted events in 2019, including MHQ Bash 6, Munzee Madness 8 and more.

These events will include a variety of features to make them bigger than ever before and we want to celebrate with as many of our players as possible. Please keep in mind that there are still many details to line out for these events, but we wanted to give everyone adequate time to plan if they’ll be joining us. 

Munzee Madness 8- March 2019

We will be hosting a dinner on March 9, 2019 in conjunction with Munzee Madness 8, an annual weekend of player hosted events in California each Spring. Although this gathering is separate from the planned events of Munzee Madness, we hope that Munzee Madness players will join the Freeze Tag team members for an evening of food, festivities and fun. The event is free to the public and you can RSVP by visiting the event page on the Munzee Calendar.

GeoWoodstock XVII- May 2019

As a continuation of our Coexist Campaign, we will be hosting an event near GeoWoodstock XVII in Fort Worth, TX the weekend of May 25, 2019. GeoWoodstock is primarily a geocaching event, but the mega event has proven to be an ideal opportunity to cross-promote all location-based gaming. No details regarding time and location have been defined yet, but expect more news closer to the event itself.

MHQ Bash 6 will kickoff on Friday September 27, 2019 with various events throughout the weekend until September 29. Like previous years the Bash will once again take place in North Texas. No specific locations have been chosen yet, but we plan on exploring new areas in the cities surrounding McKinney, TX in the coming months.

Last chance to get your Advent Calendar before it starts!

The 2018 Advent Calendar is our first time to offer a daily prize/reward/discount to Munzee players. The program has already been met with an overwhelmingly positive response. Due to this response we want to give everyone one last chance to get the Advent Calendar BEFORE it launches.

The first door will be opened just after midnight at MHQ December 1 and the first digital delivery will occur. Plan for the email to be delivered shortly after MHQ midnight daily letting you know what you have received. Credits and virtual type munzees will be shown at www.munzee.com/credits

Buy your Advent Calendar in our online store now! Advent Calendars have over $60 value just for the products you’ll receive and that doesn’t include the value of badges, multi-point days, etc.

The purchase price is currently $40 but will decrease over time. However, the gifts will not be retroactive. For example, if you purchase an Advent Calendar at 08:15 MHQ on December 5th, you will not receive the items for the first five days. In this example you will not receive anything until 00:01 MHQ on December 6th. The Advent Calendar will no longer be for sale after December 17th.

A special “Advent” title will be added to your account so you know, and so do others, that you are part of the program!

You must order before 23:59 today if you want to receive all 25 days of the advent calendar!

ONE ITEM IS SHIPPED TO YOU SO SHIPPING IS ADDED. 🙂 It is special and designed to be opened on Christmas Day! You will receive a special advent email when it is shipped*.

*The physical product has not shipped as of the date of this blog post.

2018 Christmas Events Update!

Ho Ho Ho, it’s nearly December!!!

Are you ready for the Munzee Christmas Events?

It’s going to be a busy month, just take a look at the calendar. If there isn’t an event near you it’s not too late to host one yourself, just submit an event here: https://calendar.munzee.com/submit.

Don’t forget to dig out those Christmassy outfits, the best one at an event will get this badge and feature on the Munzee Blog (all nominating hosts will get the badge too, please just email me with a picture and the username of your winner):

There is a Christmas Gift up for grabs at events that have taken the $20 add on. It will be coded to the event badge or munzee /1 in the event account if no badge. On capping this munzee the attendee will receive a prize wheel credit and it will scatter an A. Partridge icon virtual munzee up to 500ft away (only to be seen by that player):

If the player then caps their A. Partridge icon they will also receive a virtual with a colour credit, plus 100 points! This icon will expire in 2 hours and you must have both event filters turned on in the app to see them.


These rewards allow you to choose where to grow the map! Maybe you’ll choose to build a local garden with other attendees?

So, have a great time, enjoy catching up with your Munzee friends and playing our wonderful game. Happy Holidays and Season’s Greetings to you all. Thank you for your support as always.
