Flamingos Aren’t the Only Bird in Town! NEW Evolution!

Springtime is not only about beautiful new blooms — there’s lots of new life to look forward to! Since it’s been more than a year since the release of the Bee Evolution, it’s about time to add some new Evolution Munzees to our roster! Starting April 5 at 12:00 MHQ time, our brand new Duck Evolutions will be made available through the Freeze Tag Store!

Duck Evolution Munzees

The Duck Evolution is a bit different from the previous Animal Evolutions, as there are only 4 stages total. This is to balance out the longer time for the Duck to fully evolve — in our research, we found that it takes ducks 21 days to hatch. Stages 1-3 of the Duck Evos are virtual munzees, which are as follows:

NOTE: Evolution timeframes have been corrected in the blog.

Points Points Points
  • Deploy: 100
  • Capture: 50
  • CapOn: 30
  • Capture: 40
  • CapOn: 20

  • CapOn: 25
Additional Info Additional Info Additional Info
  • Lasts for 7 days
  • Blastable
  • Lasts for 14 days
  • Blastable
  • Remains on the map
  • Blastable

Once these Evolutions reach Stage 3, a temporary POB will be launched, which is Stage 4. For example, if you’ve deployed a Duck Evolution, the Duckling will remain in place (as mentioned above), while the adult Duck variant will be launched at the same time for the duration of its “lifespan.”

Stage 4 Ducks will bounce to both physical and virtual landing pads every 8 hours. They have the option of emerging as one of the three different species shown below, with the Swan being the rarest of the 3.

Like the Flower Evolutions, the chance of the Duck Evolution evolving to one of the 3 types changes every time it is reset with the Evolution Reset Credit. Although you cannot capture a reset evolution if you have already captured the original from stages 1-3, you CAN capture the final level of a reset when it evolves and releases a new tPOB. An easy way to know is, if you see it on the map you can capture it!

Please note that although the first three stages for each are the same, they will count as different special capture icons.

Just like real life ducks, the Duck Evolution Munzees stick to a healthy diet! Bouncing Duck Evos will be attracted to the following landing pads:

To access the Duck Evolution Munzees, turn on your “Evolution” and “All Expiring Specials” filters. They will count toward Evolution Capture and Deploy badges.

We hope this latest Evolution has you ready to splash into spring (in the northern hemisphere) in the meantime!

Munzee on!

Adopt a Low-Maintenance Pet with these NEW Specials!

You know we loooove animals here at MHQ — what better proof than one of our more recent Flat Objects, the Flat Murray? But sometimes having a living, breathing pet in your home just isn’t in the cards. That doesn’t mean you are totally locked out from feeling the companionship and emotional support a pet brings — you just have to get a little creative! So, to celebrate National Pet Day, starting at 12:00 MHQ on April 4th, Pet Rock specials will bounce around the map until 23:59 MHQ on April 17th.

Pet Rock Specials

We’ll be releasing the rocks in waves, but will end at a total of 700 Limestone Pet Rocks and 700 Sandstone Pet Rocks. They will roll around on the map every 4 hours or when captured.

Landing Pads Landing Pads

Limestone Pet Rocks will be attracted to Physical Magnets, while Sandstone Pet Rocks will be attracted to Virtual Magnets. To access these specials, please turn on your “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters.

When you capture a Limestone Pet Rock, up to 3 Light Wood Paintbrushes will scatter nearby. Similarly, when you capture an Sandstone Pet Rock, up to 3 Dark Wood Paintbrushes will scatter nearby.

Lastly, when you capture a Paint Bucket, it will reveal the result of your arts & crafts project, similar to last year’s Go Fishing Specials. There are 3 different results per Paint Bucket, for a total of 12 different rock results! We’ll show you 1 of the results for each color below, but we’ll keep the rest a surprise for now!

Badges

There will be 12 badges to earn for these specials, 1 for each of the different rock results mentioned above. You can see the badge for the Green Googly-Eyed Pet Rock below:

We hope you’ve got some old clothes on and set down some newspaper — it’s gonna get messy!

Beautify the Map in One Easy Step!

We’ve offered small pre-built gardens as part of Event Packages in the past, but this NEW munzee will be available to everyone, and allow for greater control of where exactly the garden is placed.

Insta-Garden
Points
  • Dependent on the types that the garden contains. Follows the usual point structures for those types
  • No additional points on top of the combined total of all the pins in the garden
Store Info
  • Cost: $14 at launch
  • Purchase HERE

How to Use the Insta-Garden

  1. Navigate to an Insta-Garden in your Undeployed list
  2. Tap to Deploy it as usual
  3. When the map to set the location loads, you will see the Insta-Garden pin centered on your location as usual, AND an overlay of the current available Insta-Garden Design underneath, centered on the Insta-Garden pin
  4. Move the Insta-Garden pin to your desired location, and the Insta-Garden Design will move with it, remaining centered underneath the pin
  5. We recommend using the Insta-Garden in wide, open spaces on the map — you will most likely have difficulties trying to deploy a garden EXACTLY in-between other munzees that have already been deployed
  6. Once you’ve found the perfect spot, confirm your deploy as usual!
  7. Please note: it may take some time for all the deploys to appear on the map — think of the deploy process as similar to a blast capture, where individual munzees are queued for processing. However, you should have no issues with anyone deploying within the confines of any partially-deployed gardens, as each deploy is timestamped even if it is queued — so your deploys will naturally have an earlier timestamp and take precedence
  8. Please also note: the Insta-Garden pin will ALWAYS be replaced by the actual Insta-Garden Design once you deploy, so you will never see the Insta-Garden pin itself on the map — it only exists up to the Deploy screens

Here is a screenshot of how Step #3 will look:

For testing purposes, we used last year’s March into May Event garden design as the Insta-Garden Design above, but to keep those gardens more limited and unique, we’ve created a NEW Insta-Garden Design that will deploy from the Insta-Garden pins now. We want to keep the new design a surprise though, so you’ll have to pick one up and deploy it to find out what it is! Or you could just wait until someone else posts it, but where’s the fun in that?

We hope you’ll enjoy sowing some Insta-Garden seeds!

Munzee on!

You’ve Been Flocked! ZEE-Dayz

Right on the heels of the Virtual Vacation ZEE-Dayz, we’ve prepped another short event, but instead of double points, double effectiveness, or double capacity, we’ve prepared something very unique… a harmless prank, if you will. As it’s April Fool’s Day, today is all about the “You’ve Been Flocked!” prank! For those not in the know, the main concept behind the prank is to sneakily decorate someone’s lawn with a whole flock of plastic flamingos! The finishing touch is usually a “You’ve been flocked!” sign. Here‘s an example if you’re curious…

To bring this prank into the Munzee world, we’ve got a new Greeting Card, some limited time Flamingo scatters, and more! Read on for everything you need to know!

NEW Greeting Card Munzee Details

We have 1 new Limited Edition card for your deploying pleasure available HERE! These greeting cards are special as they’ll scatter additional Plastic Garden Flamingo munzees upon deploy as shown below. If you stock up on these cards and save them for later, you can still expect them to scatter, BUT they will only be in the store until 23:59 MHQ on April 15!

Garden Flamingo Card Plastic Garden Flamingo
Points Points
  • Limited Edition
    • Deploy: 60
    • Capture: 50
    • CapOn: 30
  • Capture: 50
  • CapOn: 50

Don’t forget to edit the title and the notes to add a personal touch! While the capture message will contain your Munzee username as all Greeting Card capture messages do, we think typing in a more specific note will go a long way to creating a more unique and special experience!

Remember that these munzees will be archived 7 days after they are deployed, so make sure your intended recipient captures it before then!

For more information on the Greeting Cards, you can check out our Help Guide article.

Special Scatter Details

From the period of Friday, April 1st at 00:01 MHQ through Saturday, April 2nd at 23:59 MHQ, the base Garden Flamingo (without any skins equipped) will scatter 1-3 Plastic Garden Flamingos nearby.

Yes, they are the same Plastic Garden Flamingos that will scatter from the Foolish Garden Flamingo once it’s available next month! We thought it would be nice to give the base Garden Flamingo its time in the spotlight, and also give you a preview of this special scatter!

If you don’t own any Garden Flamingos, you can purchase one in the Freeze Tag Store HERE! Since it’s now April, the price should be reduced to $9!

Refreshing Flamingo Flock

For the same time period mentioned above, if you’ve captured all the munzees near you, you’ll be happy to discover that your map has been flocked! ALL Greenies and Virtual Colors will have the “mask munzees” shown below applied to them.

Another Plastic Garden Flamingo – Physical Another Plastic Garden Flamingo – Virtual
Points Points
  • Capture: 60
  • CapOn: 3
  • Capture: 40
  • CapOn: 3

What we mean by “mask munzee” is that they appear on top of a host munzee, similar to a bouncing munzee, but once capped they do NOT bounce anywhere else. You have “removed” the mask. We first did this with our Back to the Future Day specials (BttFDs) way back in 2015, but there are 3 key differences between those specials and these flamingos, namely:

  1. The BttFDs were only applied to Greenies
  2. If a player capped a BttFDs on a Greenie, others could still cap it on the same Greenie
  3. BttFDs were worth WAY less points

Now we know what you’re thinking — these masks look pretty similar to the other Plastic Garden Flamingos shown before it. Allow us to make the differences clear with another table:

Badges

We’ve created 6 NEW Badges for you to earn via specific gameplay actions! As two of them are time-sensitive, we’ll reveal those to you now:

It’s up to you to figure out the requirements for the other four (which may be easier to get within the time period of this ZEE-Dayz, but are still possible to earn afterwards!). We don’t want to spoil the fun, but watch out for any slippery banana peels! ?

We hope you join us in painting the map PINK this weekend — thanks for reading until the end!

Munzee on!

Virtual Vacation ZEE-Dayz + End-of-Month Reminders

This month was jam-packed with new releases, so we’ve put together this blog with a roundup of all the things that’ll be going away at the end! But first, we hope you’ll join us in our…

…Virtual Vacation Day Celebration!

From the period of Tuesday, March 29th at 17:00 MHQ through Thursday, March 31st at 23:59 MHQ, enjoy double magnet effectiveness (meaning, magnets will attract TWICE the number of bouncers) AND double capacity on tPOB Pubs, Treehouses, and Skylands!

In addition, all Destinations except the tPOB Pub are 20% off for the same period at the Freeze Tag Store!

The “VIRTUALVACATIONDAY2022” discount code should be automatically applied.

National Cereal Day Specials

As we posted earlier today, the National Cereal Day specials will be leaving the map on 23:59 MHQ on Thursday, March 31st. If there are still any rare spoons you’re hunting down, the double magnet effectiveness mentioned above should help with that!

If you need to refer to the blog on these specials, the link is HERE.

Sham Rocks

As we’re close to the end of the month, please keep in mind the deadlines we announced in our original SRC post:

  • Sham Rock Credits can be earned until 23:59 MHQ on Thursday, March 31st.
  • Sham Rock Credits can be redeemed until 02:30 MHQ on Sunday, April 3rd (when April Clan Wars starts).

Don’t Forget to Use Your PinPoints!

As we announced last week, limitations by third party developers have forced us to shut down the PinPoints program. PinPoints can be redeemed until 15:00 MHQ on March 31st.

Here are some helpful links we posted in last week’s blog, if you need them:

We’ve gotten a good amount of responses, but we want to make sure everyone interested has the chance to be heard! If you haven’t already filled out the survey, the link to it is HERE!

April 2022 Clan Wars Requirements

It’s almost April! You’ll find all the latest details to our clan requirements and rewards in the clan section of our app. There have been a few issues with activity not counting for some players in the opening minutes of the clan war. Please be sure to give our servers a bit of time to switch from Clan Wars OFF to Clan Wars ON. 🙂 This will ease frustration, just 10 or 15 minutes will make all the difference. We’re happy everyone is so anxious to get started on the 3rd of each month! In addition: Please do not change your clan membership for at least 2 hours after the month ends. The calculations are still being made and it could ruin your efforts.

It is possible that we could update clan requirements prior to April 3 and reserve the right to do so. The final requirements and rewards will always be shown in the app. All of this is up in the air based on how situations continue to change worldwide based on COVID-19.

April Badges

Your Clan can earn monthly badges to earn for reaching distinct levels of Clan Wars each month. You won’t be able to earn a badge until the entire clan has reached the specified level. Since there is NO Level X this month, there will be a total of 5 badges available in April. The first badge will appear as follows:

Overall Clan Notes:

Please keep in mind Levels 4 & 5 are considered advanced gameplay and not recommended for brand new players. Be aware when allowing new players to join your clans. QRew/ZeeQRew status will be required for any clans earning levels 3, 4 & 5. See qualifications for ZeeQRew here. If you are not a member on April 1st you will not be able to qualify until April 15th. If you lose qualification before the 15th you will not be able to qualify until May 1st.

*Claimed QRates will not carry over from before the clan battle starts. The QRate must be found, opened, and claimed during the month of the current clan battle. This time period begins on the 3rd, same as the clan battle.

*All shards may be redeemed at https://www.munzee.com/redeem
Total points include Cap, Deploy, and CapOn of all types.
Reseller caps/deploys include all types of RUM/vRUM/reseller card but NOT reseller gnomes or any scatters.

Social and Universal will not count for total Capture requirements.
Personal and Universal will not count for Physical points of any sort.

For complete information regarding Clan Wars, access our Help Guide!

Hints for how to play during Stay Home orders:
Use the swap feature for brand new virtual deploys.
Use the online map to deploy virtuals worldwide or find gardens to deploy in on social media groups.
Watch the online store for sales during the month to help meet your goals.
Use evolution reset credits to get new CapOn points from OLD deploys (they do NOT count as new deploys)

And finally, be responsible. If your local government, your health, or any circumstances require you to Stay Home – DO NOT participate. It is up to each of us to determine what is safe and what is allowed. This is a game and not worth risking your own live or the lives of others.
Munzee on, stay safe and Play Your Way!

Requirements and rewards found in app are the final word. Please report any issues to Munzee support.
Play at your own risk, within the laws of your local area.

April 2022 Skin: Foolish Flamingo

As the month comes to a close, we wanted to make sure you were heading into April with your desired Flamingos! The skin for completing your March capture streak (and the corresponding badge), which is the Lucky Garden Flamingo shown below, will be awarded in early April. But, we couldn’t wait to share what’s in store for next month!

March Flamingo Reminders

If you haven’t picked up a Flamingo yet, they are available in the Freeze Tag Store for $10.

Each month, the price of a Flamingo will decrease by $1. However, players can only purchase 1 Flamingo every 28 days.

Don’t forget that you’ll need to own at least 8 Flamingos by the end of the year to have a permanent one next year — so make sure to stock up soon if you’re a fan of these brightly-colored lawn decorations!

We also released special Reseller Garden Flamingos in February — if you’re interested, you can check out our blog post on them HERE!

April Flamingo Details

What Flamingo Skin can you look forward to earning in April? The funny Foolish Garden Flamingo! Like the other flamingos, the Foolish Garden Flamingo is a temporary POB that will remain on the map as long as players with permanent Garden Flamingos continue to use it.

Foolish Garden Flamingo
Points
  • Capture: 250
  • CapOn: 300
Additional Info
  • Available for multi-capture
  • Non-blastable
  • Attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets
  • Filters: “All Limited Edition Specials” and “All Expiring Specials”

As stated earlier, to earn this skin, you’ll need to complete next month’s (April’s) capture streak. Once the skin is awarded in May, you can change the skin on the flamingo to this one at any point — refer to our Help Guide article for the instructions!

You can find these frivolous fowls adding cheer to the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Additionally, the Foolish Garden Flamingo will scatter up to 3 NEW Plastic Garden Flamingos OR Funny Feathers nearby when it is captured, similar to how Tree scatters can be split! Like the other Flamingo Feathers, these scatters will be visible to any player and will be deployed on the Flamingo owner’s account. This means that unlike Air Mystery Feathers/Boulders, there are CapOn points for the owner! They expire after 120 minutes and have a capture radius of 300 feet. These flamingo scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

Plastic Garden Flamingo Funny Feather
Points Points
  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 50 points
  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 50 points

Badges

As a reminder, Garden Flamingos have 4 associated badge lines:

  • Unique type deploy badges — you’ll need to earn each month’s skin by keeping your streak up!
  • Overall deploy badges — the more flamingos you deploy, the merrier!
  • Unique type capture badges — capture at least 1 of each skinned flamingo!
  • Overall capture badges — capture as many flamingos as you can find!

While we revealed images for the first of each badge line in the original post, we are happy to show you the “Unique type deploy” and “Unique type capture” badges associated with the Foolish Garden Flamingo:

We hope you don’t laugh yourself silly earning April’s Flamingo Skin!

Munzee on!

A ZEE-Dayz for Premium Members + NEW Greeting Cards!

As we mentioned earlier in the week, today we’re kicking off a very special ZEE-Dayz! While some of the important details were already revealed, we thought it wouldn’t hurt to give you a refresher, along with some additional details. Read on for everything you need to know!

NEW Greeting Card Munzee Details

We have 2 new Open Edition cards for your deploying pleasure available HERE! As Mother’s Day and Father’s Day dates vary around the world, we thought to release these new designs ahead of those days in the U.S.!

Magnificent Mother Card Fantastic Father Card
Points Points
  • Open Edition
    • Deploy: 50
    • Capture: 40
    • CapOn: 25
  • Open Edition
    • Deploy: 50
    • Capture: 40
    • CapOn: 25

Don’t forget to edit the title and the notes to add a personal touch! While the capture message will contain your Munzee username as all Greeting Card capture messages do, we think typing in a more specific note will go a long way to creating a more unique and special experience!

This brings the current lineup of Greeting Cards available for purchase to the following:

Remember that these munzees will be archived 7 days after they are deployed, so make sure your intended recipient captures it before then!

For more information on the Greeting Cards, you can check out our Help Guide article.

Double Points Details

From the period of Thursday, March 24th at 00:01 MHQ through Sunday, March 27th at 23:59 MHQ, non-trial Premium Members can enjoy double points on Flat Friends and Flat Objects!

Please note that Fancy Flat Friends are not included, as they are bouncing munzees.

We hope you join us in finding Flats this weekend — thanks for reading until the end!

Munzee on!

As we end the first quarter of the year, things are definitely starting to pick up! We started off the month bringing back the limited-time credit program — this month’s incarnation, as you know, is called Sham Rocks! We then kicked off our first ZEE-Dayz of the month for all players, featuring the humble Shamrock Munzee and also the return of St. Patrick’s Day Greeting Cards.

The next week, we launched the cute and colorful Cereal Specials, a pack of St. Patrick’s Day-themed skins, and a NEW Mech purchasable with Sham Rocks!

Just last week, we launched the newest Secret ZeeOps, which, for the first time, includes TWO Mechz as rewards! We also tried out a second ZEE-Dayz, this time specifically for March MunzPak owners, along with the NEW tPOB Pub and Recyclops skin. Most importantly, we announced a new survey we’d like everyone to participate in!

We are now happy to announce the winners of the March Gardens of the Month (GOTM)! The badges will be awarded by early April, but we couldn’t wait to share the winners we’ve chosen!

March GOTM

Recently we’ve been receiving a lot of nominations for summer-y gardens — at first, this puzzled us, as we are currently experiencing the end of winter here in the states. After realizing where these gardens were located, it made perfect sense — it’s summer on the other side of the world! Remember that all winning GOTM organizers and all players who deployed in the winning gardens will be awarded special badges for their contribution to growing the map. This month we’re happy to award the Nessie in Grenaa garden, designed by MetteS for Henning49, and the Palmuranta garden, designed by tartu61 and enkku, as our winning March GOTM! The gardens appear as follows:

Indeed, as the nominator mentioned, you can see that this garden is along a river. It covers 3 bus stops!

Here’s a note from the player who nominated this garden:

This beautiful garden is perfect for the city of Grenaa. It is by the sea, and this sea monster is making its way up the stream from the sea to the main city.

We thought this garden was a fun twist on the typical St. Patrick’s day theme! The Loch Ness Monster hails from Scotland, but there’s no denying its similarities with the Irish Oillipheist, which we featured earlier this month as our latest skin for the Hydra!

Palmuranta by tartu61 and enkku in Hyvinkää, Finland

Non-Finnish Munzee players: can you guess what “palmuranta” means? If you guessed “palm beach”, then you are correct! If you were curious, “ranta” on its own is the word for “beach”.

This garden was created to celebrate the first Munzee event in Hyvinkää, Finland! The event is called Palmurannan alla and will take place on April 9th — so if you’d like to show your support, feel free to deploy any Greeting Cards or other Virtual Munzees nearby before then!

The garden shares its design with the event badge and icons, as you can see below:

All players who deployed in the respective winning gardens will receive the following special badges:

Rules for GOTM nominations:

  1. Garden must feature non-licensed character designs.
  2. The garden must feature a Garden Places Pin.
  3. The garden must be built using a publicly available spreadsheet which we will ask to be locked after being 100% deployed.
  4. We’re asking for ongoing nominations and we will release the winners throughout the year.

Based on your feedback, we’ve created a Google Form where you can submit GOTM nominations — here’s the link: https://forms.gle/SjUQeRxdi5FT81pCA

We’ll still check the iloveyou@munzee.com inbox for stragglers, but please try to send your submissions to this new Google Form instead. Keep in mind that we take all former nominations into consideration for upcoming months. Just be sure your garden follows the nomination rules in order to be considered eligible!

If you need help deploying in a Virtual Garden, you can check out this step-by-step tutorial that will making deploying in a garden easy no matter how long you’ve been playing. To fill in the gardens, make sure to stock up on Virtuals and Color Credits from the Freeze Tag Online Store.

Munzee on!

P.S. Are you looking for POTM requirements? Remember that last year, we announced that we were holding off on POTM for now as we develop a new way to highlight our unique player base!

Use Your PinPoints Before They’re Gone!

Almost three years ago, we started the PinPoints program to give players a way to earn game pieces through gameplay and purchases. Although we’ve enjoyed this opportunity to reward players, certain limitations by third party developers have forced us to shut down the program. Because of this PinPoints will no longer be redeemable after 15:00 MHQ on March 31st.

If you have PinPoints you can read more about these changes below, but we do want to highlight a number of reward opportunities we’ve added over the last three years for the Munzee community:

  • We launched our In-App Store, which allows players to purchase items using Zeds, an in-app currency which are often given as rewards for various gameplay achievements.
  • By rebooting our ZeeOps program, players can earn daily rewards for completing missions, as well as different credits that can be used in the Redeem Store.
  • For special occasions, limited-time credits like the Sham Rocks are earnable via gameplay and can be redeemed for unique seasonal game pieces.
  • Key areas of the game have been revamped such as the NEW Daily Activity Tracker, and Clan Wars, where players are able to earn rewards through gameplay as well.

Ultimately as our team has developed better ways to deliver rewards, it has become unrealistic to rely on third party providers for these tools. We appreciate all of those that have embraced the PinPoints program so we want to be sure that you can make the most of those points while you have them.

How to Make the Most of Your PinPoints

To see past PinPoints transactions on our website visit: https://www.munzee.com/pinpoints/

To see current options to redeem in the store https://store.freezetag.com/pages/pinpoints

  • Earn PinPoints on purchases until 15:00 MHQ on March 28th – PP have a 3 day delivery/hold period on them, so we will deactivate new purchases at that time.
  • Review other items in the Freeze Tag Store to see if there’s anything else you want to redeem using PinPoints.
  • Use discount codes produced by PinPoints starting with “LL” before they are voided permanently April 1st.
  • Refer to our Help Guide article if you need a refresher on how everything works.
  • We know there are some players with large amounts of PinPoints left, so we have added a handful of NEW, higher value items until 15:00 MHQ on March 31st.

We do not anticipate offering PinPoints as part of a loyalty program in the future, so you will need to redeem your PinPoints before the removal date. Please note that we do not have PinPoints stored in the Munzee databases. PinPoints are held by a third-party provider through our Shopify store, so we won’t be able to bring those points back.

We hope you enjoy spending your leftover PinPoints, and stay tuned for more exciting ways to earn rewards in the future!

Munzee on!
