March Resolution Badge Details!

How comfortable are you with getting outside of your comfort zone? What skills have you been meaning to sharpen? Our monthly Capture Streak Badges are centered on a year of self-improvement, and March is no different. While January focused on eating healthy and February involved making new friends, March will be the month of picking up new hobbies!

Underwater sweater knitting, anyone?

Each month’s badge will be dedicated to accomplishing a different New Year’s Resolution. Similar to how our Super Streak badges operate, you will be awarded a badge if you capture at least one munzee* each day for the entire month. Even if you missed out on the last two months, it’s never too late to get in on the healthy and happy living! The extra Munzee badge is just an added bonus.

The Importance of Hobbies

What’s your favorite hobby? (I mean aside from Munzee, of course.) While many of us feel consumed by our day to day lives, you don’t have to wait until retirement to explore your hobbies. And if you are already retired, you’re in luck! It’s time to start exploring what you enjoy. Carving a part out of each day to devote to activities that nourish you physically, mentally, and spiritually is tantamount to achieving overall health and well-being.

Maybe you fell out of touch with a cherished childhood activity or you’ve been meaning to explore a new activity for years. Whatever the case, having a hobby is proven to be beneficial for your mind and body. Hobbies are an excellent stress reliever, which has benefits for both your mental happiness and your overall physical health. It’s crucial to remember to take a break and unwind with an enjoyable activity in order to give yourself some important relaxation time.

At the same time, hobbies allow the opportunity for new experiences and challenges. Shake up the normal routine of your daily life and allow your brain to focus on something new. The mental stimulation will be rewarding, while allowing the chance to explore and discover new talents. Who knows what hidden hobby you will discover in yourself! It might even prove to be financially lucrative, while learning new skills can advance your career.

Don’t allow your free time to be wasted! Enrich your spirit by picking up a new hobby this month. Oh and don’t forget to cap something every day this month too!

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!

Introducing New Flower Evolutions!

Winter may still be in full swing for some of you (and it might be summer Down Under), but we’re anticipating spring here at MHQ. Weather changes moods, and the anticipation of the season of new life has inspired us to bring you Flower Evolutions, the latest in our line of Evolution Munzees. And we decided why stop at one when we can bring you four brand new Evolutions to enjoy!

Flower Evolutions

Our Flower Evolutions will include four new munzees, each equipped with the ability to evolve five stages and into a variety of different colors. The Rose, Tulip, and Lily are all physical munzees, and the Carnation is a virtual munzee. To start off three of the Flower Evos will only be available via March MunzPak subscriptions, the full contents of which will be revealed on March 1 at 10:00 MHQ time. Please note that if you buy a MunzPak before 00:01 MHQ on March 1 it will still be February’s contents.

The fourth Flower Evo can only be purchased from authorized Munzee Resellers, which you can learn more about here: https://www.munzee.com/retail/ 

You can find the point structure for Flower Evos below, but these do work differently than other Evolution Munzees. Since there are five stages each will evolve over the course of 70 days total.

  • Stage 1 to Stage 2: after 7 days
  • Stage 2 to Stage 3: after 14 days
  • Stage 3 to Stage 4: after 21 days
  • Stage 4 to Stage 5: after 28 days

The first four stages (Seed, Germination, Growth, Bud) will be the same for each type of Flower Evo, but when it blossoms in stage five it has the chance of turning into multiple colors. Please note that although the first four stages for each are the same, they will count as different special capture icons.

The stages include:

  • Stage 1: Seed
  • Stage 2: Germination
  • Stage 3: Growth
  • Stage 4: Bud
  • Stage 5: Blossom

At stage five the Rose will be able to blossom into one of four different colors, while the Tulip and Lily can both evolve to three color options. Additionally, the virtual Carnation can evolve to one of five different colors at stage five.

This new line of munzees will fit into the overall Evolution Munzees category. There will only be one capture per stage for a total of five stages per flower, so there will be no multi-captures. The Carnation can be captured via Blast Cap in each of its five stages. The capture radius will be 300 feet for all types. When deploying a Flower Evolution, be sure to adhere to normal Proximity Rules. That means no less than 50 feet from others and 150 from your own munzees. To access the Flower Evolutions, turn on your “Evolution Filters.” These will count toward Evolution Capture and Deploy badges as well.

Additionally, an Evolution Reset Credit can be purchased to set your Evolution back to Stage 1. If a Flower Evo is reset there is a chance it will evolve into a different color at stage five than it was before. Although you cannot capture a reset if you have already captured the original, you CAN capture the final level of a reset if it evolves to a different color than your first capture. An easy way to know is, if you see it on the map you can capture it!

Points

Points will depend on order of growth and type of munzee. All physical Flower Evolutions will have the same points, while the virtual Carnation will have a different point structure. Points are all follows:

Physical

  • Capture: 20 (Stage 1), 30 (Stage 2), 45 (Stage 3), 60 (Stage 4), 75 (Stage 5)
  • CapOn: 60 (Stage 1), 50 (Stage 2), 45 (Stage 3), 35 (Stage 4), 25 (Stage 5)
  • Deploy: 100

Virtual

  • Capture: 10 (Stage 1), 20 (Stage 2), 30 (Stage 3), 40 (Stage 4), 50 (Stage 5)
  • CapOn: 50 (Stage 1), 40 (Stage 2), 30 (Stage 3), 20 (Stage 4), 10 (Stage 5)
  • Deploy: 100

Who said flowers were just for Valentine’s Day? We think these Flower Evolutions are more romantic than any bouquet!

Munzee on!

Introducing Cinema Places Munzees!

Seen any good movies lately? It may be too cold for some of you to do much hunting, but there are still ways to get out of the house, have fun, stay warm… and cap some points. Yes, I’m talking about going to the cinema. But what does that have to do with Munzee? I’m glad you asked. MHQ is pleased to announce the introduction of our latest type of Places Munzee: Cinemas!

Starting at 15:00 MHQ on February 25, the Cinema Places Munzees will be available for $10 in the Freeze Tag Online Store, along with all of the previous Places Munzees. Cinema Places Munzees can be deployed at movie theaters and cinemas around the world. Please note that stage theatres will not be accepted, and your submissions should be easily identifiable from Google Maps.

Like the other Places Munzees, Cinema Places Munzees will be deployed from players’ accounts in adherence to proper point and proximity structure. The Cinema Places Munzees will have a 1,000 ft capture radius. They will not be blastable, but they can be captured daily. You can access the Cinema Places Munzees by turning on your Places filter.

Points

  • Deploy: 40
  • Capture: 20
  • CapOn: 10

As a friendly reminder, Places Munzees must be verified by MHQ once they are submitted for deployment. Please allow up to 2 business days for approval before emailing support. You will receive an email with approval or rejection with a reason. Please bear with our support staff, and if they decline your submission, please work with them to locate the area for confirmation. For more details about Places Munzees, check out the help manual.

Cinema Places Munzees are the latest addition to the Places Munzees collection, which also includes Virtual Garden, Unique Attractions, Airport, Wildlife, Stadium, Museum, University, Faith, First Responder, Historical, Library, Post Office, Hospital, and Cemetery. Remember that you can buy one of each type of Places Munzee every 30 days, except for Virtual Garden Places Munzees which can be bought twice every 30 days. Like other Places Munzees, the Cinema Places Munzee counts towards the Places Capture and Streak badge lines.

What’s your favorite cinema snack? Ours is popcorn with a side of points!

Munzee on!

It’s Almost Time for Munzee Madness 8! Details, Sales and More!

It’s almost that time of the year again— Munzee Madness season! That’s right, Sunny California is gearing up for the longest running player run events of the year.

To celebrate the event, the entire California Freeze Tag office will be attending Munzee Madness 8! Freeze Tag will also be hosting their own event in conjunction with the Munzee Madness player sponsored events in order to provide double the fun! Even if you can’t make it out to California to attend the events in person, there are still ways to participate from home.

Munzee Madness Details 

Mark your calendars and cancel your plans, because MM8 will take place from Friday, March 8 to Saturday, March 9. You can find the full Munzee Madness schedule at the end of the post. There will be a variety of events for all attendees to participate in!

Are you interested in meeting a portion of the team behind everyone’s favorite global scavenger hunt? The entire Freeze Tag California office will be in attendance, including Craig Holland (Cholland86), Mick Donahoo (fixitman), Mari Rann (Kirikat), and Tamara Sahagun (Raan). There will also be a dinner hosted by Freeze Tag on Saturday night in order to allow players more opportunity to interact with the people behind the scenes after a full day of MM8 Road Rally!

There will be a number of special event badges for players to earn throughout the weekend, as well as an abundance of munzees and specials to capture. No sneak peaks this time! If you want to see the new badge designs, you’ll have to earn them in person…

Virtual Garden Fun for All and Sales!

Whether you can attend the event in person or you’ll be celebrating virtually by playing the game at home, there are a variety of ways you can participate in MM8 regardless of location. We are excited to share the designs of four gardens that will surround the event, so that all players worldwide can earn some CapOn points. Choose from the Craig Park, Ode to 1849, Officer Down, or Ode to q22q17 to deploy in! You can access a listing of a number of Virtual Gardens in the area here.

Why limit yourself to deploying in one Garden? In celebration of MM8, we decided to release some special offers in the Freeze Tag Online Store. Previously, Virtual Trail Munzee Credits could only be purchased in packs of five that included five Virtual Munzees as well. Now, we are releasing individual Virtual Trail Munzee Credits that includes one Virtual Trail Credit and no Virtual Munzees!

Our Virtual collection will now include Temporary Virtuals, Virtual Trail Munzee Credits (multiple), and the Virtual Trail Munzee Credit (single). All three of these items will be 19 percent off through Monday, February 25 at 10:00 MHQ time. Deploying in one of these Virtual Gardens is a great way to support the events even if you can’t make it in person!

Have you never deployed in a Virtual Garden before? Don’t worry, we’ve made it easy for you! Check out this step-by-step tutorial to help build a Garden today. All you need to do is purchase some Virtuals, maybe a few Color Credits, and select a garden to start deploying in.

If you can make it out to Cali for the weekend, we’d love to see you! And if you can’t, make sure you join in on the fun virtually! Don’t forget you can host your own Munzee Events as well, and it sounds like April would be a good time to start.

Munzee on!

Mitmegu

Only a limited number of Mitmegu will be available for public sale. Each Mitmegu will cost $15, but you can upgrade it with a Bouncer Upgrade credit for an extra $5. The Bouncer Upgrade credit will equip your Mitmegu with the ability to be “nudged” to a new Munzee. This nudge feature can be used up to three times a day (MHQ 24 hour day) after it has sat for a minimum of three hours so that other players have the opportunity to find it.

If you haven’t deployed a Pouch Creature yet, now is your chance! The Bouncer Upgrade will also allow you to rename your Pouch Creature. While the name will still retain the unique number, you have the chance to get creative and customize your Pouch Creature’s moniker. (Just remember our player code of conduct!)

Additionally, the Water, Earth, and Fire Elemental Munzees will also be on sale this weekend in strips of 5 for $8, which is 20% off the original price! We also have Shamrock Munzees available in strips of 5 for $8. St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner so stock up now!

Lastly, we are all stocked up with new Pouch Creature Personal Munzee metal tags for $10. The tag designs feature each transformation of a Pouch Creature, including Mitmegu! Pick up your own Personal tag today, featuring your favorite Pouch Creature! Remember that each individual design is limited to ONE per account.

Who’s your favorite Pouch Creature? Let us know by connecting on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Happy Shopping, and Munzee On!
