NEW Open Edition Greeting Cards to Get Your Creative Juices Flowing!

With the release of the Flat Typewriter earlier this week, we wanted more munzees to promote creative writing in ALL forms!

We are happy to announce 2 NEW Greeting Cards are available for purchase! You can pick up Greeting Cards from the Freeze Tag Online Store HERE. You receive multiple munzees from your single purchase. Read the details in the store, or see below.

NEW Greeting Card Munzee Details

We have 2 new Open Edition cards for your deploying pleasure!

If you’ve got a story idea you’d like to collab with a friend on, why not send them a quick pitch with a Short Story Card!?

Or perhaps your talents lie in music — so serenade someone from afar via a Song About You Card!

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:

  • Open Edition (will always be available; ONE Purchase yields FOUR munzees)
    • Birthday
    • Get Well
    • Thank You
    • Congrats
    • Sorry / Sorry 1 / Sorry 2 / Sorry 3
    • Spring
    • Fall
    • Thinking of You
    • Knock Knock Joke
    • It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere
    • Wish I Was Here
    • Life Is Good
    • Good Luck / Lucky Rabbit’s Foot
    • Bad Luck / Break A Leg
    • Short Story
    • Song About You
  • Limited Edition (will rotate depending on occasion; ONE Purchase yields THREE munzees)

As a refresher, the point structure for Greeting Cards is as follows:

  • Open Edition
    • Deploy: 50
    • Capture: 40
    • CapOn: 25
  • Limited Edition
    • Deploy: 60
    • Capture: 50
    • CapOn: 30

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.

Munzee on!

 

*Please note that we have combined all Open Edition cards into a single product on the FT Store. Moving forward all new Open Edition cards for sale will show up in this product, and you can choose which type of card you would like there. You can purchase all Open Edition cards HERE!

Put Pen to Paper — or Rather, Fingers to Keys — With Craig’s Flat Object!

At MHQ, we like to keep our players on their toes. We had quite a gap between the Flat Disc Golf Basket and the Flat Flashlight, and now, just over a month later, another new Flat Object?! Well, this month is National Novel Writing Month, aka NaNoWriMo, so we couldn’t pass up this opportunity, as you’ll see! The rest of the MHQ staff has been using their spare moments thoughtfully designing their own Flat Object, so we hope you keep an eye out for them as they are released!

The fourth Flat Object is brought to you by Craig, the CEO! Don’t be intimidated by his title — Craig is one of the more outgoing members of the team who enjoys chatting with players at Munzee Events and learning what makes them tick (not that the rest of us don’t enjoy it — it just seems to come naturally to Craig, without any shyness or awkwardness). For those who haven’t been fortunate enough to get to know him, or would like a refresher, you can check out his most recent Meet Munzee Munzday post HERE!

In his spare time, Craig turns to writing to give his creative juices an outlet. Did you know that he’s written plays that have been produced by theater companies?! It was definitely exciting for us to learn! For his Flat Object, he decided on a beloved symbol of writers everywhere — the Typewriter! Read on to learn more!

Flat Typewriter Details

The Flat Typewriter joins the Flats as a virtual type. It is currently available in the Freeze Tag Store HERE!

Capture Radius: 300 feet, blastable

Proximity: 50 feet from other players’ Flats, 150 feet from your own.

Deploy: 19 points

Capture: Split 86 points with a minimum of 19 Points (Maxwell Smart’s Agent Number)

CapOn: Split 86 points with a minimum of 19 Points

To access the Flat Typewriter munzee, turn on your “Virtual – Flats” filter or “All Flat Types” filter. For more information on Flats, you can check out our Help Guide article.

Badges

There are badge lines for deploying and capturing the Flat Typewriter, which feature actual books and plays written by Craig. You can see the first of each below!

We hope you enjoy collecting all these written works and learning a bit more about Craig in the process!

Munzee on!

The Final Set of Baby Animals!

Ready for another dose of cuteness? Sadly, when we looked to see what Baby Animals we had left to release, we found there were only 5 left! Instead of releasing 3 as we usually do via MunzPaks and leaving the remaining 2 to some unknown time in the future, we decided to make them all available now!

Baby Animals

These colorful cuties are temporary POBs. They bounce to either physical or virtual munzees, depending on where you purchased them from. They will stay on the map until 23:59 MHQ on December 31, when they will be automatically archived on your account.

  • Deploy: 500 points
  • Capture: 200 points
  • CapOn: 100 points

Baby Raccoon Munzee
Physical MunzPak – Click HERE to learn more!

Keep an eye on this one, and make sure he’s well-fed — when hungry, he can detect the smallest morsel of food a mile away, and stop at nothing to get it. Countless fruit pies cooling by windows have been consumed by this innocent-looking face. This sneaky thief scampers to the following:

  • Treehouse
  • Greenie
  • Earth Mystery
  • Water Mystery
  • All Stages of Barn
  • All Stages of Tractor

Giraffe Calf Munzee
Virtual MunzPak – Click HERE to learn more!

The graceful Giraffe Calf always has her head up in the clouds — and not just because she’s tall! Prone to daydreaming, she builds fantasy worlds inside her head — if only she could put pen to paper! This imaginative infant gallops to the following:

  • Skyland
  • All Virtual Colors
  • All Stages of Safari Bus
  • Wildlife Places

Foal Munzee
Hybrid MunzPak – Click HERE to learn more!

The Foal loves the feeling of soft grass under her hooves and the wind blowing her mane — but she’s still getting used to her newly-long legs! Because of this, she often stumbles and falls, but she never lets this kill her adventurous spirit. This admirable animal clip-clops to the following:

  • Treehouse
  • Greenie
  • Earth Mystery
  • Water Mystery
  • All Stages of Barn
  • All Stages of Tractor
  • Skyland
  • All Virtual Colors
  • All Stages of Safari Bus
  • Wildlife Places

Otter Pup Munzee
In-App Store*

You can’t keep this otter out of the water! Thanks to his oily coat of fur, he’s able to swim easily in nearby rivers and streams and catch fresh fish for his supper. If only all babies could take care of themselves as well as this pup! This self-sufficient swimmer paddles to the following:

  • Treehouse
  • Greenie
  • Earth Mystery
  • Water Mystery
  • Skyland
  • All Virtual Colors
  • Air Mystery
  • Campground Places

Candy Corn Piglet Munzee
Redeem Store* – Click HERE to visit!

Like many of us, the Candy Corn Piglet has a sweet tooth! While he would prefer to eat sugary goodies all day, he’s thankfully been trained to eat his veggies first. This healthy hog trots to the following:

  • Treehouse
  • Greenie
  • All stages of Ear of Corn
  • All stages of Bacon
  • Skyland
  • All Virtual Colors
  • All Stages of Peas
  • Drink Depot Places

Baby Animals will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture a Baby Animal on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same Baby Animal visits you. In virtual form, Baby Animals will be non-blastable. They will be attracted to Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access Baby Animals under the “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters.

Badges

When you purchase a Baby Animal (which will automatically deploy it) you will also receive the respective deploy badge shown below:

Lastly, captures of these Baby Animals will contribute to progress towards badges in the Baby Animals Overall Capture line. So if you missed out on some of the badges from the Baby Animal MOBs, you have another two months to earn them by capping these tPOBs! We have added 3 new badges to that line featuring these cute critters, bringing the total number of badges in this line to 13 (we added more badges before HERE and HERE). As a reminder, you can see the first of this badge line below:

Sweet Stickers- Capture 1 Baby Animal Special of any type.

Remember these temporary POBs will only be available for capture until the end of the year, so cap as many as you can and keep them bouncing!

Munzee on!

*Otter Pup and Piglet are only available November 1st and 2nd. They will be removed at 23:59 on the 2nd.

Candy Corn Credit and Koobas Sale!

With less than 3 days left until November, it’s crunch time for our Halloween-themed releases. By popular demand, we’ve put a few items for sale in the Freeze Tag Store that should help round out your month!

Last Chance at Koobas!

While Koobas was in the store quite recently during the ZEE-Dayz period, it did take a little break and disappeared (perhaps using a Void Mystery) for a bit. If you were hoping to pick one up, it’s back in the store until 12:00 MHQ on Monday, November 1st. You can shop Koobas HERE!

Need a refresher on how Koobas works? Check out its debut blog post!

Candy Corn at the Freeze Tag Store!

We were surprised to hear that some players were interested in buying Candy Corn Credits — we thought everyone would have too many to know what to do with by the end of the month! But maybe you’ve been unlucky with the munzees near you, or, on the other hand, perhaps you’ve been making great use of them and just need a few more to tide you over. We’ll be holding a super-limited time sale on Candy Corn Credits for less than 48 hours, from 12:00 MHQ on Monday, November 1st to 17:00 MHQ on Tuesday, November 2nd. If you’re interested, you can purchase a pack of 100 Candy Corn Credits for $5 when the sale starts HERE! Limit one pack per player.

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

  • Candy Corn Credits can be earned from 00:01 MHQ on Friday, October 1st to 23:59 MHQ on Sunday, October 31st.
  • Candy Corn Credits can only be redeemed until 02:30 MHQ on Wednesday, November 3rd (when November Clan Wars starts).

Make sure to head to the Redeem Store and check out all 4 “Halloween” tabs to use up as much of your CCC as you can! You may find a new item there as we get closer to November 3!

We hope you get your fill of Candy Corn before the month’s over!

Munzee on!

November 2021 Clan Wars Requirements

It’s almost November! 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 November 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.

November 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 November. 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 November 1st you will not be able to qualify until November 15th. If you lose qualification before the 15th you will not be able to qualify until December 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.
Bouncer captures include any POB, MOB, or TOB (even the temporary POB).
Social and Personal will not count for Deploy requirements.
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.

October Garden Gnome Reminder + November Preview!

As the month comes to a close, we wanted to make sure you were heading into November with your desired Garden Gnomes! The skin for completing your October capture streak (and the corresponding badge) will be awarded in early November, but we couldn’t wait to share what’s in store!

October Garden Gnome Reminders

If you haven’t picked up a Garden Gnome yet, they are available in the Freeze Tag Store for $3.

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

If you’re planning to complete the capture streaks for each month (and made the initial purchase in January) you’ll have 12 different skins to choose from! So be sure to purchase one each month so you can have a complete bench of these athletic Garden Gnomes!

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

November Garden Gnome Details

What Gnome Skin can you look forward to receiving in November? The low reaction time eSports Garden Gnome! Like the other gnomes, the eSports Garden Gnome is a temporary POB that will remain on the map until 23:59 MHQ on December 31.

As stated earlier, to earn this skin, you’ll need to have completed this month’s (October’s) capture streak. Once the skin is awarded in November, you can change the skin on the gnome to this one at any point — refer to our original blog post for the instructions!

Points

  • Capture: 250
  • CapOn: 300

You can find these nimble-fingered gnomes moving their avatars to the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Additionally, the eSports Garden Gnome will scatter up to 3 NEW Gnome Gaming Headsets nearby when it is captured!

Like the other Gnome Hats, the Gnome Gaming Headset will be visible to any player and will be deployed on the Gnome owner’s account. This means that unlike Feathers/Boulders, there are CapOn points for the owner! They expire after 120 minutes and have a capture radius of 300 feet. These hat scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

The rewards for Gnome Hats are as follows:

  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 50 points

The eSports Garden Gnome will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture eSports Garden Gnomes on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same eSports Garden Gnome visits you. eSports Garden Gnomes are non-blastable. They will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access eSports Garden Gnomes by turning on your “All Limited Edition Specials” and “All Expiring Specials” filters.

Badges

As a reminder, Garden Gnomes 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 gnomes you deploy, the merrier!
  • Unique type capture badges — capture at least 1 of each skinned gnome!
  • Overall capture badges — capture as many gnomes 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 eSports Garden Gnome:

We hope you’ll keep up all your usual strategies to earn November’s Gnome Skin — phone alarms FTW! Don’t forget to keep your streak up through November — you’ll need to in order to earn the final December Gnome Skin!

Munzee on!

More on Halloween Skins and Candy Corn!

There’s only 10 days left until Halloween, but we wanted to squeeze in a few more themed treats for you to enjoy!

Halloween Skins

Originally, the first of these, the Candy Corn Unicorn, was quietly launched in the [Halloween (Week 2)] tab of the Redeem Store. While it was fun to launch it with a bit of mystery, we also wanted to make sure you didn’t miss out — hence the social post just before next week’s goodies appeared. Earlier this week, we did the same for the LepreCorn.

As we’re launching the final batch of these skins now, we wanted to take this opportunity to clear up what they are and how to use them.

Halloween skins are very similar to Garden Gnome skins:

  • You use the [Convert] option either in the app or on the website to apply them
  • Applying a skin does not count as a new deploy
  • You can switch between skins as much as you like
  • Halloween skins change the landing pads of the Myths (Garden Gnomes mostly have the same landing pads, but each has at least 1 type unique to them)

The only difference is:

  • Halloween skins can only be applied to upgraded Myths, which are permanent POBs (Garden Gnome skins can only be applied to Garden Gnomes, which are tPOBs)
    • In other words, skins you own will never go away, but in the case of Garden Gnomes, the bouncers you apply them to will
  • If you don’t own these myths yet you can purchase them now, but remember you’ll need to upgrade as well.

NEW Skins

Now that that’s out of the way, here are the remaining Halloween skins! These skins will be available in the Freeze Tag Store as a 3-Pack! You can shop them HERE!

The landing pads for these are:

  • Monster Yeti:
    • Greenie
    • Barn (Stage 3 only!)
    • Bones (Stage 3 only!)
  • Nightmare Pegasus:
  • Midnight Dragon:

NEW Badges

We’ve also created 2 badges relating to Candy Corn Credits. You can see what they look like below:

The one on the left requires you to earn a certain number of CCC, while the one on the right is obtainable by a rather unorthodox method (HINT: if you’re not hoarding Candy Corn, where does it go?) — though it shouldn’t be too difficult for anyone to get!

We also have a NEW Halloween themed Personal Tag featuring some of our new Candy Corn collectors!  This limited edition tag is available for purchase in the FT Online Store HERE!

We hope you look forward to seeing some costumed Myths on the map, and that you harvest these ripe new badges!

Munzee on!

October 2021 GOTM Winners

For October, we wanted to do more than just spooky themed bouncers. As restrictions still vary around the world, we wanted to create a safe trick-or-treating experience with Candy Corn Credits. Instead of going door-to-door, you collect them by going munzee-to-munzee! And, even better — you can trade them in for rewards you choose, so you can truly play your way this month! Some of the new Halloween Greeting Cards we released at the start of the month are obtainable by redeeming CCC.

Of course, we did release some spooky themed bouncers the next week — the Pro-fright-ionals! We also tried something new by releasing new Halloween-themed skins for Myths: the first was the Candy Corn Unicorn, the second was the Candy Corn Leprechaun (“Leprecorn”) — more may be coming soon! Just this week, we released an update to Hotels which should make it easier to earn CCC from them as well.

Lastly, we highlighted Pouch Creatures this month with the release of 3 new Mitmegu Evolutions, the first new non-Funfinity Stone creature in over a year — Koobas — and a ZEE-Dayz weekend that awarded double points on them and Greeting Cards!

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

October GOTM

The gardens we chose reflect the festive mood we’re feeling — we know y’all are feeling it too, as the Calendar is packed with events every weekend! In fact, one of these gardens was made specifically for an October event. 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 Witchy Pumpkin Garden, designed by MrsHB31 and markcase, and the Black Moth ? Squad Garden, designed by Rikitan, as our winning October GOTM! The gardens appear as follows:

Wouldn’t this design make a fun Halloween-themed emoji?

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

This was set up for the October 9 Halloween event and filled nicely.

A simple and cute design in the colors we’ve come to associate with Halloween! We also appreciate the use of the new Void Mysteries as the purple band around the hat, which adds variety and will certainly attract nearby players who haven’t had the chance to cap any yet!

Black Moth ? Squad by Rikitan in Bratislava, Slovakia

This beautiful bug is made up of all the virtual Jewels, except Emeralds as those are only deployable in designated Emerald gardens. We think the Night Vision Goggles make even better eyes than Emeralds!

Here’s a note from a player who designed this garden:

Garden is dedicated to local players in Bratislava, who often go out to streets after dusk, chasing specials and bouncers.
Night-time munzeeing is much easier in the city, thanks to quiet traffic compared to rush hours.
Garden was created during 2nd wave of COVID-19 pandemic, when we’ve been locked at our homes after dark by government restrictions.

We thought this jeweled moth was the perfect partner to the Witchy Pumpkin due to its similar color scheme! Also, “Black Moth ? Squad” just has a really cool ring to it — sounds like a special branch of ZeeOps agents!

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!
