Hit the Slopes with March’s First 20/20 Vision Munzees!

Get your last bit of powder in this month before the weather starts to warm up! Our fifth 20/20 Vision Munzee will shield your eyes from the sun’s rays, even those bouncing off all the reflective white snow! These lime green goggles were deployed this afternoon at 15:00 MHQ. These goggles will look great off the slopes as well, giving your outfit a touch of futuristic cool.

Only three pairs of Ski Goggles will be deployed, and they will bounce to Greenies every 12 hours or when captured. These will be attracted to Physical Magnets though so be sure to stock up! 

Points:

  • Cap: 200 points
  • CapOn (Host): 100 points

Capturing the Ski Goggles will add this very cool Slope Sight badge to your collection! Remember, down the line we’ll be putting out an overall capture line, so don’t forget to check back for updates!

 

According to Forbes, in the most recent Winter Olympics, the ski goggles of choice for many athletes were from Oakley’s Harmony Fade collection:

The Harmony Fade collection is made up of seven types of goggles and five styles of sunglasses for a variety of sports. The Prizm lens technology is found in Oakley’s snow, sport and everyday lines. In the snow line, the technology claims to dramatically enhance contrast and visibility over a wide range of light conditions, and was engineered to offer this versatility and reduce the need to switch lenses as lighting conditions change.

You’ll be able to capture the 20/20 Vision specials on other players’ munzees as well as your own for the remainder of the year! As a reminder, all 20/20 Vision specials will leave the map on 12/31/2020 at 23:59 MHQ. More unique 20/20 Vision specials will launch throughout the year so keep on the lookout — you won’t want to miss out on these trendy lenses!

Show us how you Munzee! Tweet us @Munzee or be sure to post a photo and mention us on Facebook (@Munzee) or Instagram (@munzeeapp). Good luck, and Munzee on!

Munzee Event Safety Concerns

Like many around the world, we have been monitoring the COVID-19 situation. Although our real-world adventure game encourages players to explore the areas around them, the safety of our players is of paramount importance. 

At this moment we are not canceling any Munzee Events that hosts have put so much time and effort into planning. We instead will be extending the Fall Into Spring event time frame through May 31st, or later if necessary. So any themed event packages purchased can be rescheduled to a different time during this period. As always please reach out to Events Manager Louise Gibson by emailing her at events@munzee.com for all of your event needs.

We encourage hosts and players alike to use caution in the weeks to come regarding their own personal safety. We urge you all to stay safe and follow local guidelines in regards to large event gatherings. 

Regular gameplay can still be enjoyed around the world, but we do caution those in areas with higher risk of COVID-19 to use their best judgment when playing. Clan Wars will continue as planned, so we suggest players communicate with one another to help grow virtual gameplay for those worried about safety in their area. 

We thank you all for your support of our game. Our mission has always been to build community through active gameplay, but above all we must keep player safety as a top priority. We will continue to reassess the situation in the weeks to come. Stay safe and Munzee on.

Event Spotlight: Weston Super Munzees

While Munzee can certainly be a solo game if you choose, there’s no denying the appeal in meeting others who share your interests. Munzee Events are perhaps the best example of this, as they allow you to meet both old and new players in a safe, friendly environment. On top of that, there are usually activities, games, and — if you’re lucky — goodie bags! That being said, planning events requires a considerable amount of effort. So, to make it easier for prospective hosts (and maybe even recurring hosts), we decided to put the spotlight on past events, Munzee-Toolkit style! We hope this series of posts will inspire you to try hosting an event if you never have before, or provide you with ideas to spice up future events if you’re an old hand at it!

Today we’re featuring the Weston Super Munzees event, which took place on April 8, 2018 at The Old Colonial in Weston-Super-Mare, UK and was hosted by nuttynan, Lizeb, lankyspanky, and TheJenks7.

Give us a brief summary about your event!

I had just moved to Weston and wanted to grow the map as there were very few Munzees there. I concentrated on deploying Water, Prize Wheels and Flats clusters to encourage players to deploy and cap as well. The Flats deploys were particularly prolific as it was a double points weekend. These clusters enticed more and more players to attend. Plus I did a free prize draw for host places for all those who attended (I paid for the entire event myself). Although the Initial cost was quite a lot the subsequent deploys from players all over the world became the basis of the massive Munzee presence the Weston-Super-Mare now has.

What tips do you have when hosting an awesome event?

Build the map by doing clusters of certain types of physicals and virtuals so players can easily see what can be capped in big numbers. Also offering a prize draw for host places is always popular and brings more players to an event.

What made your event unique?

Seaside location with brand new deploys in huge clusters, so no one had capped them.

Would you like to highlight any future events you’re hosting?

https://calendar.munzee.com/event1578954942/

We are celebrating Weston’s links with helicopters history and chasing little helicopters around the streets beside the famous Helicopter Museum (NOT on the museum grounds or airfield).

There are huge numbers of Airs and Joysticks (with the resulting number of scatter types to chase after as well). We welcome any type of deploys in and around the event venue and the obvious “loops” which indicate where the event icons may be deployed. https://www.munzee.com/map/gcjuj4xqj/15.5

Thank you to nuttynan for being such a great host and submitting the details for this event! We will be reaching out to other past event hosts in the future, so keep an eye on your inbox!

Destination Renovation Explanation!

…renovating a MOTEL!???

If you build it, they will come. But what if you’ve already built it, and players have come and gone? Well we’re looking to do a little construction, so we’re excited to announce that Destination Renovations are now LIVE for Motel Munzees!

This new feature will allow players to renovate Motels and add additional rooms for even more capping fun. You’ll be able to renovate any Motel Munzee (whether you own it or not) on both the web and Munzee app. Find a breakdown of all the details below!

Star Struck:

Motel Munzees are now a star-based system. Each star ranking equals 5 rooms, so effective immediately all original Motel Munzees have been converted into 1-Star Motels. The icon images on the map are currently updating, but if you do see a “blank” or original Motel icon please note that, that is indeed a 1-Star Motel.

Renovating Motels will offer the following:

  • 1-Star Motel: 5 rooms (Standard Motel)
  • 2-Star Motel: 10 Rooms
  • 3-Star Motel: 15 Rooms

By renovating you could be a part of a 3-Star Motel that is now on par with Virtual Resorts in terms of number of rooms, but worth so many more points! Every time you Renovate a Motel you’ll earn 50 points as well, so get your construction hat on!

The Destination Renovation is currently only available for Motel Munzees, but it’s safe to say construction on other Destination Munzee types may break ground soon!

So how do you Renovate a Motel? Well first you’ll need a Destination Credit!

Destination Credit:

All Motel Munzee credits have now been converted into Destination Credits. Players will use Destination Credits to both convert generic munzees into Motels, and also to renovate Motels.

  • Converting a greenie into a Motel = 1 Destination Credit
  • Renovating a Motel = 1 Destination Credit per 5 rooms.

You may see that you already have Destination Credits in your inventory. These were previously Motel Credits you had earned, for many players. As more physical Destination types are allowed to renovate these types may also get converted into Destination Credits, but for now Destination credits can only be used for Motels. You can purchase Destination Credits in the Freeze Tag Online Store, so be sure to stock up in case you come across any full Motels!

A Note on Motel Munzee Stickers:

If you have pre-coded Motel stickers that have yet to be deployed, they should still work just fine! When you go through the deploy process, you’ll just see a 1-Star Motel pin in place of the old Motel pin. However, if you do run into any issues, sticker-related or otherwise, please e-mail support@munzee.com!

How To Renovate A Destination:

You’ll be able to renovate Motel Munzees in the app AND on the Munzee website!

Anyone can renovate a Motel Munzee in the app:

  • Navigate to the Munzee Details of the Motel you would like to renovate
  • Tap on the blue [Renovate Destination] button at the bottom of the screen
  • Confirm that you would like to use a Destination Credit in the following popup
  • That’s it!

Destination Renovation Screenshot

Only the player who owns the Motel, or ZeeQRew members will be able to renovate Motels on the Munzee Website:

  • Click [Edit Munzee] on the munzee you would like to renovate
  • Click [Renovate]
  • Click [Upgrade] on the level you would like to make the munzee
    • The number on the left is your inventory of Destination Credits
    • The number on the right is how many Credits it costs to renovate
  • Confirm that you would like to use a Destination Credit in the following popup
  • Success!

Benefits Of Destination Renovation:

Alongside an increase in CapOn points for Motel room owners there are a number of benefits for Renovating Munzees!

  • If you try to cap a Motel and find that it’s full, you can renovate it and then cap it again to get a room for yourself.
  • If you wanted to help friends or clan members get into a full motel, you can renovate it from any location in the world.
  • If your own Motel is full, you can renovate it to get more CapOn points from other players who might flock to get the new rooms.
  • If you’ve got a lot of Credits in stock, but no room to deploy Destination Munzees, this let’s you make your existing Motels even better!
  • Offer to renovate other players’ Motels in exchange for virtual trades!?! Help grow the worldwide community.
  • Make physical Destinations that require physical activity even MORE valuable!

We hope you’re as excited as we are for these new credits! We’re always looking for ways to refresh the map and add value to game pieces you may already own!

Take a walk around your neighborhood — maybe the landscape has already changed!

Munzee on!

Leap Day Bouncers Will Have You Messing with the Timeline!

UPDATE: These specials have been extended to 10:00 MHQ on March 3rd.

Leap Day comes only once every four years, so this year we’re leaping throughout time to celebrate! We have three new specials featuring different time travelers, so get ready for a blast from the past! Those who play our sister game WallaBee may also recognize these designs from the Travels Through Time set from way back in 2013!

Read on to get all of the details, but then hurry up because these specials will only be available until 10:00 MHQ on Tuesday, March 3, 2020

H.Zee. Wells’ Time Machine Details

2,900 of H.Zee. Wells’ Time Machine will bounce to physical munzee types every 4 hours or when captured.

  • Greenies
  • Premium Munzees
  • Mace Munzees
  • Original Mystery Munzees

This ancient Time Machine will be worth 95 points for both the Capture and CapOn, so you don’t want to miss out! The stylish, yet stationary physical MOB will be attracted to Munzee Magnets on Greenies! To access these specials, please turn on your “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters.

The godfather of all Time Machines is a bit more stationary!

Zeeloreon and TARDY Details

The Zeeloreon and TARDY Time Traveler specials will bounce to all colors of virtual munzees every 4 hours or when captured. 2,900 of the virtual specials have been released (1,450 of each type) so there’s plenty of opportunities to cap these time travelers!

The Zeeloreon Time Traveler will be worth 85 points for both the Capture and CapOn.

The TARDY Time Traveler will be worth 63 points for both the Capture and CapOn.

Both virtual Time Traveler specials will be attracted to Virtual Magnets on all colors of virtual munzees. To access these specials, please turn on your “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters.

Badges

Additionally, there will be six badges to earn based on the number of Time Traveler specials you capture. Each Time Traveler special has its own line of two badges, so the achievements will not count the overall total captures, but instead the distinct captures of that type. But just how many captures it takes to earn all six badges may take some TIME to figure out!

However, we will reveal the first badge of each line, which appear as follows:

It’s not all about leaping through time though! We’re also celebrating the quadrennial holiday by bringing back our pal from the last Leap Day. We have new personal tags featuring 2016’s Leap Frog specials, which are also a part of our Joystick Gaming Munzees. These personals will only be available for a limited time so be sure to grab one (or 29) before they hop away! Get yours in the FT Online Store HERE!

We hope you enjoy this blast from the past!

Munzee on!

The Ametust, Topaas, and Oniks are Ready to Rock Your World As the Latest Pouch Creatures!

UPDATE: Funfinity Stone capture badges are now live! 

Please give a warm welcome to the first new Pouch Creatures released this year, Ametust, Topaas, and Oniks!

Also known as part of the Funfinity Stones, these Player Owned Bouncers (POB) resemble the Jewel Munzees, which they also bounce to! These three stones are available NOW in the Freeze Tag Online Store. Be sure to shop fast, because these Funfinity Stones will leave the store at 10:00 MHQ on Monday, March 2! Players can purchase one of each of the Funfinity Stone types for $10 each. No upgrade ability is available.

Funfinity Stones

These precious pals bounce every 6 hours or when captured.

All three of these new Pouch Creatures will have the same point values:

  • Deploy: 250
  • Capture: 200 Points
  • CapOn: 250 Points
  • CapOn (Host Owner): 200 points

Ametust- Shop HERE

This lovely purple stone will land on the following munzee types:

  • Any color regular virtual
  • Earth Mystery
  • Amethyst
  • Treehouse

Topaas- Shop HERE

This bright yellow stone will land on the following munzee types:

  • Greenies
  • Earth Mystery
  • Topaz
  • Treehouse

Oniks- Shop HERE

This mysterious black stone will land on the following munzee types:

  • Any color regular virtual
  • Earth Mystery
  • Onyx
  • Treehouse

You can find Ametust, Topaas, and Oniks by turning on your Only Expiring Specials and Only Pouch Creatures filters. These new Pouch Creatures WILL be attracted to physical magnets AND virtual magnets — remember that Jewel Munzees are now magnetizable as well. So this means that the physical Topaz munzee and the virtual Amethyst and Onyx munzees can also be magnetized to pull these stones!

Don’t forget to pick up magnets at the Freeze Tag Online Store and magnetize a greenie, virtual, Jewel, or Treehouse of your choosing to attract up to 3 Specials, Myths, or Pouch Creatures for up to an hour!

For deploying a Funfinity Stone Pouch Creature Munzee, you will earn the respective deploy badge:

UPDATE: There is also a line of ten badges for capturing unique Funfinity stones! Unlike other Pouch Creature badge lines these will be earned for ALL unique Funfinity captures, no matter the type. Each badge features a different Funfinity Stone so some may be a bit of a sneak peek of what’s to come! The latter badges will be pretty difficult to earn so be sure to capture Funfinity Stones whenever you see them!

Below you’ll find the requirements for the first two capture badges, which feature Topaas and the Null image. You’ll have to cap more to see which sun-shiny stone comes next!

 

In celebration of the new additions to the family, we have also added a limited number of older Pouch Creatures to the store as well. You can shop the whole Pouch Creature Collection HERE!

Thanks for welcoming our cavernous new friends! Munzee on!

Jewel Magnetization + New Packs in the In-App Store!

As we head into the last few days of February, we wanted to cap off this jewel-focused month with some exciting news!

Jewel Magnetization

One of the ideas we bounced around in the recent gameplay survey was whether you would like to be able to magnetize more munzee types. The majority was in favor of this idea, and it made sense to us, too — why not give Magnets more bang for their buck? Starting from today via an OTA update you can now use Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets on Jewel Munzees!

The specific Jewel you magnetize will still only bring Bouncers that land on that type of Munzee though, so you’ll be able to have a bit more control over what you’re attracting. This should help Myth chasers encounter some of the rarer myths out there, like Chimeras and Goblins.

You can easily magnetize jewels within the app, but you can also magnetize on the web as well. To learn more about Magnetizing munzees visit the Munzee Help Guide.

 

New Packs Available Via The In-App Store!

To complement this new feature, we’ve also added new multi-packs to our In-App Store! Now you can use Zeds to buy the following products in packs of 10:

  • Physical Magnets
  • Virtual Magnets
  • Mini Blast Captures
  • Blast Captures
  • MEGA Blast Captures

We hope these changes add value to items you probably already own, and make gameplay more streamlined! We’ve also heard you would be interested in purchasing Zeds online. We’ve added them to the store now, for a LIMITED time! So stock up while you can for access to the new items in the In-App Store!

There are a few more surprises to come which we think you’ll enjoy, so keep an eye out for our announcements!

Munzee On!
