2016- Eventzee

2016 was great year for Munzee Inc. and we’re excited to look back on some of the highlights! The “2016 in Review” series will showcase different aspects of the company and some of our team’s favorite parts of 2016.

As Director of Operations for Eventzee, it has been a pleasure seeing this section of the company grow exponentially in its second year. We have worked on so many unique events, seen thousands of amazing photos and pushed our mobile scavenger hunt app to new levels.

So much has happened this year it’s impossible to list everything. Our app had tons of updates including awesome new features and fixes to bugs. We got a much needed website update through the awesome work from front end developer/designer Judy Nguyen.

Eventzee’s goal for 2016 was to find new avenues of business and work with an even greater variety of conferences, festivals and events of all shapes and sizes. By enhancing our outreach efforts we have built relationships with recurring clients and begun developing partnerships with other scavenger hunt companies.

Specifically we would like to thank Distel Wolfe Events, Thrill of The Hunt, and City Fun Group for adapting the Eventzee app into their own companies’ event selections. While Eventzee offers a service for customizable mobile based scavenger hunts, these partners can offer a more hands on approach to developing clues, running events and more. Each of these companies has helped us expand our worldwide player base and also offered invaluable suggestions for making the most out of our app updates.

To learn more about Eventzee’s partnership program contact eventzee@munzee.com.

Perhaps the greatest partnership of all is with our parent company Munzee. With the help of Munzee Events Manager Louise Gibson player events have utilized Eventzee in great ways. Dedicated players have shown how well they can host events of their own with ease and are constantly discovering new ways to play.

While much of our focus went toward growing business, we also continued to enjoy the smiles, laughs and, of course, high fives from our players this year. It’s always a pleasure when we can go to events and see the game in action, so we hope to travel even more next year.

This year alone Eventzee had 262,380 photos taken through the app and we hosted 875 events! We’re so excited for 2017 and all the bigs things to come. Thank you to everyone who made 2016 great- see you next year!

Director of Operations, Eventzee

2016- WallaBee In Review

Robbie McGuire, WallaBee Manager

We are lovingly calling 2016 the year of growing pains. As Munzee has had WallaBee for a year now, we’ve seen many growth opportunities- some good, some bad- that have added great changes in the app and community. We’re proud of everything we accomplished this year and excited for what’s to come.

~Community~
The BeeKeeper program has grown from a few players approving places to a full-fledged team of forum moderators, helping make the game better for all.

Hardships were found in the community, from simple drama to losing players to death. Through it all, the community has found a way of coming together to hold others up. You don’t see this kind of community through normal mobile gaming and we’re proud to be a part of it.

WallaBee “One Year With Munzee” Celebration in Anaheim, CA.

~Gaming~
Over 350 items were released in 2016. Sets like Wombie Walentine Wapocolypse, Tell Us A Tale, Veni Vidi Mixi, Sushi Madness, BCA, and Cracking Under Pressure have showcased the types of sets that WallaBee is known for.

Users were able to commission new uniques for the first time in a long time. Players are also able to save more than 255 Unique items to their set without issues. With the addition of over 90 new uniques this year, the extra room was definitely needed.

New subcategories were added to the map, some previous subcategories were adjusted to blend categories, and players can now stash more items than ever. It is obvious that locations have been modified to best accommodate players, wherever they are.

~Extra Fun~
We also saw the addition of various physical items, like the pins, shirts, and the Limited Edition WallaBee Card Game. This game was created by staff for a completely new experience with the WallaBee artwork you know and love.

Plans for 2017
The biggest question on everyone’s mind is: “When does Android come out?” We are working hard to make this dream a reality. We anticipate launching the Android app in Spring 2017 (date TBD).

Beyond the player support and gameplay you’ve grown to expect, you can expect to see exciting game growth, technology improvements, and even more items to collect. We are excited for what 2017 has in store for WallaBee! Join us as we take this road together.

WallaBee Manager

Munzee Madness V

WallaBee: Trading and Collecting Game was acquired by Munzee Inc. in 2015. The app is currently available on iOS devices and an Android version is coming soon.

2016- Munzee Events

It gives me great pleasure to take a few minutes away from setting up all these amazing Christmas parties to say THANK YOU to all of the players for their contribution to events. To my lovely hosts for putting the events on and being so great to work with, and to the amazing players that travel all over the world to attend the events and make them so fun.

My favourite aspect is the artwork and I’d like to say a massive thanks to the incredible Trish for her amazing work. I also love seeing you all have fun and get involved at the events in your Dodgy Jumpers and Easter Bonnets!

It’s fun to surprise my loyal hosts with stuff such as Emerald gardens in their area and to reward attendees with hidden extras at the events they go to. This will continue.

I loved the MunzFit events and the way players supported me, Rob and Matt in our successful attempt at 2 Guinness World Records, thank you.

I’ve been lucky enough to attend a few events myself this year and it’s been wonderful to put names to faces and meet players I’ve been working with for a couple of years now. I will be continuing my efforts to spread the events love far and wide and look forward to working with many of you and meeting even more of you!

Munzee on and thank you x.

Player of the Week: Myra Morgan (MyraTX)

As Munzee has grown over the years, the game has evolved in so many more ways than any of the co-founders could have imagined. We’ve certainly had our fair share of growing pains, but in its essence Munzee has tried to stick to its core goal of getting people out into the world. No one knows this better than those players who have been with us since the beginning. This week’s Player of the Week is Myra Morgan (MyraTX).

Who are you?
Myra Morgan – username: MyraTX

Where in the world do you live?
In a suburb of Denver, CO (but guaranteed to retire back in TX).

How long have you played Munzee?
I joined in July 2013 because a friend was playing (in Texas) but was a bit bored playing all by myself. Then one day about a year ago, I ran into another Colorado players in a parking lot (cgund) and it became a lot more social.

How did you find Munzee?
Through a friend – denali0407 (in TX, of course!).

What do you most enjoy about Munzee?
The social aspect of it, and being outdoors. I dislike parking lot capping but love to get out in the parks and trails.

What is on your wish list?
A Jack-a-lope mythological. OH, and MORE TIME to PLAY!

Tell us about yourself!
I’m married to an Air Force pilot (R) who gave me the ride of my life (literally, the first time he took me up in a small plane, I knew we were going to die) and throughout his career and all our traveling. We have three grown and (of course) amazing children. I work as a nanny for a family with a 3-year-old and a 6-month-old (read that as – I filled up my empty nest once my kids were grown and gone).

Other hobbies include:
Gardening, reading, hiking, watching movies, and gathering friends at the house for events.

Any last words?
As many of you who were able to come to the Birthday Bash this past July know, Colorado is a beautiful place to play the game, and there are a lot of nice people doing so. The best part of Munzee for me has been getting to know them; so thanks for that, and see you at the next event!

Introducing the Places Munzees!

As you may have seen across various channels, we’ve teased some new types of munzees during the past week. Well now, they’ve officially arrived. We’re very happy to introduce the Places Munzees!

The Places Munzees are positioned at locations that may be of interest all around the world. The first two categories of Places to be released are Airports and Sporting Arenas:

The Airport Places Munzees have been placed at some of the largest airports in the world as well as airports in areas with large or growing player presence. More airports will be added as we move forward.

The Sports Places Munzees have been placed at stadiums of major sporting leagues around the world, including soccer (football), hockey, and rugby. These will be expanded to more sports and stadiums in the future.

Details

Places Munzees can be captured once per MHQ day. You do not have to wait 24 hours before you can re-cap it, e.g. you can capture it at 11:30 MHQ time on Monday and 9:21 MHQ time on Tuesday. Each capture of a Places Munzee will earn you 10 points.

Places Munzees are NOT blastable. They do, however, have different capture radiuses. Sports Places Munzees have a capture radius of 1000 feet. Airport Places Munzees have a capture radius of 1 mile.

Badges

There are 3 badges for capping Places Munzees: Passport, Customs Stamp, and World Traveler. These are for capping 1, 25, and 100 UNIQUE Places Munzees, respectively.

: Passport – Capture one unique Places Munzee

: Customs Stamp – Capture 25 unique Places Munzees

: World Traveler – Capture 100 unique Places Munzees

We will continue to add new categories of Places in the future. The next two categories will be Universities and Aquariums, which will be released in January. More information regarding those categories will be available closer to release- so stay tuned!

We hope you enjoy these new munzees.

Have fun, and Munzee on!
