With a lot more space for fun activities in MHQ 3.0, we’ve set up an awesome podcast studio! We figured we should probably get around to using it though, so what better time than for some Birthday Month announcements? We had a few technical difficulties at the beginning (give us a break, it’s been a while since we’ve done this!) but the audio quality gets a lot better about 40 seconds in.
Agents, due to your hard work in June the contaminated outlier strain of Evolution Munzees has been controlled. Despite investigations into what caused the issue, there have been few leads as to who was behind the leak. ZeeOps Agents must focus on forward though, so prepare for this month’s Operations.
Since the leaders of the Mean Green Gang have seemingly all been eradicated Director Zee has kicked off a probation program for former MGG members. The program has been named “Going Green.” He has requested that ZeeOps agents worldwide begin rounding up Mean Greenies to present them the opportunity to join forces. The program has been met with some resistance from both ZeeOps agents and former Mean Green Gang operatives though, so be careful.

Below you can read the original blog post while MVMs were still a thing. The process is still the same but only virtuals exist now. You can purchase them in the store and they include a free color credit here.
Read on for old information but still the same process…
Wouldn’t it be great if you could easily swap out old virtual munzees in popular destinations for newer virtuals worth more points? Well now you can!
We’re excited to announce that you can now easily swap out many virtual munzees!
Using the Munzee website you can now go back to your older virtual type munzees and swap in new virtual types and MVMs. By using the Virt Swap tool, you can instantly archive your old virtual type munzee and deploy the new one in the exact same spot. No waiting periods and no losing your spot! This also opens up the opportunity for players to re-capture high density areas, if new virtuals are deployed.
With the Virt Swap tool almost any virtual type can be replaced by almost any virtual type.**
For example, you can swap an old green virtual for a new virtual sapphire in the exact same location. You could also swap an old yellow mystery virtual for a new MVM and add a yellow color credit. It’s good as new and ready for people to come and cap it! Imagine the cap on points you will receive with the strategically placed MVM versus the old virtual points.
Please note that when you swap out an old virtual you must use a new munzee that has not been previously deployed. Since you’re swapping out for a totally new munzee the points for the old virt captures will not change.
To celebrate the release of this new tool MVMs are on sale for $4 and for every MVM purchased you’ll get a free color credit as well. Go to the Munzee Online Store and stock up now!
To swap out a virtual just do the following:
Go to your online Munzee profile.
Go to your undeployed munzees and copy the number code from the replacement virtual item URL.
Go to your deployed munzees and choose the virtual you want to replace.
Click “Edit Details,” scroll down and paste the new number code in the specified area.
Check out the video below to see the Virt Swap in action (you may need to pause and rewind to fully get it):
**You cannot change any of the following munzees using the Virt Swap tool:
All Physicals
All MHQ created Virtual Gardens
Social
Event Pin
Virtual Emerald
Personal Munzee
Event Indicator
Virtual Trail
Virtual Resort
Virtual Resort Room
CLARIFICATION: ALL (physical and virtual) Jewels count for Caps and Deploys, and CapOns DO count toward Total Points.
Hey, everyone! Sorry for putting out these requirements a bit late. It’s been a bit hectic around MHQ lately. June is almost over, though, so here are the July Clan Requirements!
No, we haven’t lost our minds (yet) ;). We know we are actually early in releasing the Clan Requirements this month. We’ve got a lot of cool things to announce this week, so we decided to post these a bit early to keep a good flow of information. Good luck with the July Clan War!
I hope you’re all getting excited about July and all the 6th Birthday events. There are 80 on the calendar to choose from! It’s not too late to get your events on there, it’s quite late for artwork though, our designers’ diaries are full to bursting and we can only accommodate pretty simple requests for July at this stage I’m afraid.

The floodgates have opened and the latest Elemental Munzee is now for sale- Welcome the Water Mystery Munzee!
This physical munzee type may hold the key to the Fountain of Youth, but it is not without its risks. When you cap a Water Mystery Munzee three water droplets will scatter to greenies within one mile of the surrounding area. When you cap the scattered droplet you have the chance of drinking pure water, toxic water or salt water. Depending on the cleanliness of the water you will either earn points, lose points, or nothing will happen.
The water will evaporate after two hours though so be quick! Water Mysteries will also attract Hydra Mythological Munzees soon as well.
Name: Water Mystery Munzee
Points:
Deploy: 50
Cap/CapOn: Split of 60 with min of 5.
When captured, three water droplets spread on greenies within a mile.
These have three outcomes:
Pure Water: Cap: 50, CapOn: 10
Salt Water: Cap: 0, CapOn: 0
Toxic Water: Cap: -5, CapOn: 10
Availability
Water Mystery Munzees are available NOW in the Munzee Online Store. They are physical stickers sold in blocks of 10 for $20 USD.
You can also stock up on Fire, Ice and Earth Mysteries in the Elemental Munzee Pak which will include 10 Fire, Ice and Earth Mystery Munzees for $40. You can also find these in the Munzee Online Store.
Capturing Water Mystery Munzees will also help count toward the new Elemental Munzee badges too!
MHQ is hosting a Spectacular 6th Birthday Bash in July and we want you to join us! We’ll have snacks and of course some celebratory cupcakes, as well as SUPER new badge.

Here at Munzee we’re constantly encouraging our players to meet and greet and build the personal relationships that make this game so great. Our team continues to grow ,and we’re excited with the addition of Chris Houlihan.
Name and Title:
Chris Houlihan, Director of Technical Operations
Where are you from?
Flower Mound, Texas
Tell us about yourself: I graduated from the University of North Texas with a bachelors in computer science. Prior to that, I was a math major at the University of Chicago until I realized how much I disliked higher level math. I have been in software development for over 20 years working in defense, telecom, and enterprise software. I transitioned into development management about ten years ago and found that I really enjoyed it. I have never stopped coding, though. I am married and have seven kids at last count.
How long have you worked for Munzee?
One week.
What do you enjoy most about Munzee?
The team.
What are some of your other hobbies?
Developing games, herding children
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, Brian Glaski (cachewhisperer).
Who are you? Brian G. aka cachewhisperer
Where in the world do you live? Currently Orlando, FL
How long have you played Munzee? I have been a member since 2012
How did you find Munzee?
I was on a road trip with War1man and Rosieree to WV for a Hatfield and McCoy Tour hosted by some great friends. Every now and then along the way, Warren would find a munzee nearby and run back to the car to grab his phone. That night, at dinner in a local restaurant, there was a QR code on a ketchup bottle. Making a joke to YankaBucs about scanning the ketchup munzee, it turned out to be worth 1 point. I was shocked and downloaded the app. That ketchup bottle was my second munzee scanned after a regular virtual.
What do you most enjoy about Munzee? I enjoy the walking aspect of the game. I’m very competitive with points, but I will never let the original intention of the game to get people out walking for exercise to escape me.
What is on your wish list? One day, I would like to get over to Europe and see where their Munzee trails bring me. Or maybe even a clan war month with no virtual captures/CapOns. Just physicals. I like a challenge.
Tell us about yourself! I am a paramedic working my way up with training and experience and eventually have a goal of becoming a firefighter/paramedic in NH.
Other hobbies include:
From time to time I do enjoy taking out the golf clubs and smacking a few around. My game has improved quite a bit lately, so if MHQ is up for a challenge… Haha.
Any last words? Isn’t this what they ask you before pulling the switch on the electric chair? I’d like to say thanks to the MHQ staff for all that they do. It’s not an easy job pleasing everyone, but there are many that appreciate what you do.
