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!

Stake Your Claim on the Map With This NEW Flat Object!

It’s been a little over 2 weeks since Munzee Madness 11, and though it was still a multi-stage event, it feels like it ended so quickly. We really missed attending events in-person and seeing players we’ve known for years, along with some new faces! As its first event was in 2012, Munzee Madness is the longest-running annual event hosted by players. It was originated by one of our Resellers, 1849, who owns Gold’n Coins! This quick history lesson is just one example of Resellers helping to maintain and grow the Munzee community — so in honor of ALL our Resellers, we’ve created a NEW game piece just for them!

The sixth Flat Object is a little different from the previous objects, as it was not designed by one specific team member — instead, we’ve developed it to represent our Resellers! As Munzee is a global game, we appreciate that our Resellers make it easier for local players to get their hands on Munzee stickers and other physical items. On top of that, as mentioned above, they are often a huge part of maintaining and growing the local Munzee community.

This Flat (and the badges associated with them) will be continuing the pirate theme we’ve established for our Resellers. Read on to learn more!

Flat RUM Details

The Flat RUM joins the Flats as a virtual type. If you are interested in picking one up, they will be available at most of our Authorized Resellers’ shops some time today. The links to shop all of our resellers are below!

Flat RUM
Points
  • Deploy: 19
  • Capture: Split 83 with a minimum of 18
  • CapOn: Split 83 with a minimum of 18
Additional Info
  • Capture Radius: 300 feet
  • Blastable
  • Proximity: 50 feet from other players’ Flats, 150 feet from your own
  • Filters: In “Virtual – Flats” or “All Flat Types” filter
  • Counts towards both Flat and RUM reqs for Clan Wars and ZeeOps
Store Links

For more information on Flats, you can check out our Help Guide article.

Badges

There are badge lines for deploying and capturing the Flat RUM, which, as hinted above, feature the gear you need for a nautical voyage. You can see the first of each below!

ZEE-Dayz Coming Soon!

Similar to last week’s MunzPak ZEE-Dayz, expect a ZEE-Dayz event for non-trial Premium Members kicking off Thursday at 00:01 MHQ! Flat Munzees will see double their normal point values!

If you are shooting for the the badge and exclusive bouncer for hosting an event every month this year, why not plan your March event for this weekend? Your attendees will be raking in the points! To refer to the details for the Monthly Event Packages again, click HERE!

We hope you enjoy capturing the flags and embracing the pirate life!

Munzee on!

A Gameplay Survey for 2022!

It’s been a while since our last big survey — can you believe it’s been 2 years already? We are getting to a point where we can start planning new things — so we thought it would be prudent to check in with the community via a new survey!

The link to the survey is HERE, but read on for more details regarding the survey and prize drawing!

Survey Details

Like our past surveys, this survey does not collect e-mail addresses, nor will it require sign-in to Google. We’ve chosen to go this route since we want to make it as open to everyone as possible — some people may not be comfortable sharing their e-mail address, others may not have a Google account.

You’ll find that the questions at the beginning of the survey ask for some basic information about you — this is just to get a general idea of our our current player base, and will not be used to identify you in any way, even if you choose to enter the prize drawing (more details on it below). If you’ve filled out our past surveys, many of these questions will likely be familiar to you.

The survey will then shift to more opinion-based questions — feel free to type as much as you’d like (or as much as the Google Form will allow)! We do read every response, though it may take us a while to get through everything.

Once again, the link to the survey is HERE.

Prize Drawing Details

To sweeten the deal, we’ll be doing another random prize drawing! Like in our past surveys, you have the option to submit your username at the end for an entry. Please note the following:

  • Usernames will ONLY be used to conduct this prize drawing.
    • As mentioned above, even if you do enter in your Munzee username, we will not use the data in this survey to identify you in any way. The survey data will remain in this Google Form, separate from the Munzee databases.
  • Multiple entries will disqualify you from winning.
    • We’d like the data to be as accurate as possible — multiple entries from the same people will artificially sway the data a certain way.
  • We will determine the total number of winners based on the number of unique survey responses — said another way, the more players that fill out the survey, the more winners there will be!
    • However, as mentioned in the previous bullet points, please DO NOT fill out the survey multiple times as this will cause our data to be inaccurate, and we will disqualify anyone with multiple entries.
    • DO ask any of your Munzee friends and family to fill out the survey, if they don’t know about it already!
  • Entering the prize drawing is OPTIONAL.
    • If you are not comfortable with having your Munzee username tied to your response, you can certainly leave the field blank.
    • That being said, you should have nothing to fear — we will never punish players for writing honest opinions in this survey. If there is something we can improve, this survey and support@munzee.com are the best places for you to tell us.

The survey will be closed some time on April 1st — and no, this is not a joke. We are looking forward to hearing from everyone!

Munzee On!

NEW Cyclops Skin in the Redeem Store!

We love to know that our players make the effort to pick up trash around their local areas and dispose of them properly as they #MunzeeOn! To honor that practice, we’ve created a new skin just in time for Global Recycling Day! This skin would also be perfect to see on the map on Earth Day next month.

Recyclops Skin

It is available in the Redeem Store in the [Sham Rocks Surprise] tab, also for 25 SRC. Like the Sham Rock n Rolla, it will remain available through 02:30 MHQ on Sunday, April 3rd (the expiration date we had set for Sham Rock Credits).

Recyclops
Landing Pads

If you don’t already own the base Myth, but are still interested in using this skin, here is the link to shop: Cyclops. Keep in mind that the base Myth will also need to be upgraded in order to use the skin. If you haven’t upgraded your base Myth yet, you can purchase a Bouncer Upgrade Credit.

For more information on Skins, you can check out our Help Guide articles HERE and HERE.

Sham Rocks Week 3

As usual, the most up-to-date list of what’s available will be what you see on munzee.com/redeem, where the [Sham Rocks (Week X)] tab swaps out on 12:00 MHQ every Thursday. So make sure to spend your credits each week!

Here is what we have in the Week 3 tab:

Quantity Item Sham Rock Cost Limit
1 Lucky Charm Greeting Card 3 SRC 1 per player
1 Good Luck Greeting Card 2 SRC 5 per player
1 Wish I Was Here Greeting Card 2 SRC 5 per player
1 QRowbar 5 SRC 5 per player
1 Physical Magnet 5 SRC 2 per player
1 Temporary Virtual 5 SRC 5 per player
1 Seasonal Munzee 10 SRC 1 per player
1 Mini Blast 15 SRC 1 per player
5 Cog 20 SRC 1 per player

We hope you continue to enjoy earning Sham Rocks from gameplay this month!

Munzee on!

This NEW Mech is for All Who Love Rock ‘n’ Roll!

In our first Sham Rock Credits post, we mentioned that another tab in the Redeem Store would appear later on. As planned, this tab contains items that will remain available through 02:30 MHQ on Sunday, April 3rd (the expiration date we had set for Sham Rock Credits) — so you don’t need to worry about them going away like the items in the [Sham Rocks (Week X)] tab (which swaps out on 12:00 MHQ every Thursday)! Currently there’s only one item in there right now, so here’s everything you need to know!

Sham Rock n Rolla Details

Like the other Munzee Mechz, the Sham Rock n Rolla is a temporary POB that will remain on the map until it has been captured 5 times. In addition, as a tPOB, upon capture you have the chance to earn 1 Sham Rock Credit. At 12:00 MHQ today, it was made available in the Redeem Store in the [Sham Rocks Surprise] tab for 25 SRC. If you decide to make the trade, a Sham Rock n Rolla will be automatically deployed on your account at once! You will also receive the Greenprint to rebuild it when you have earned enough Cogs in the future.

Points You can find these charismatic cyborgs playing at the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:
  • Deploy: 733
  • Capture: 150-250
  • CapOn: 133-173
  • Smashed (5th Cap): 500

When a Sham Rock n Rolla is captured, it will scatter up to 3 Blarney Beats.

Points Additional Info
  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 25 points
  • Visible to any player
  • Deployed on the Sham Rock n Rolla owner’s account.
  • They expire after 120 minutes and have a capture radius of 300 feet.
  • You’ll be able to use Rover Treats to capture them.
  • These scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

Sham Rock n Rollas will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture Sham Rock n Rollas on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same Sham Rock n Rolla visits you. Sham Rock n Rollas are non-blastable. They will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access Sham Rock n Rollas by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” filter.

Badges

Deploying a Sham Rock n Rolla will earn you the corresponding Greenprint badge, which you can see below. There is also a badge that you can earn by capturing a Sham Rock n Rolla — but since there’s only one badge in this line, we’ll keep it a secret for now.

Sham Rock n Rolla Greenprints- Deploy 1 Sham Rock n Rolla Munzee.

We hope you enjoy the sound of Sham Rock n Rolla’s music!

Munzee on!

NEW St. Patrick’s Day Skins – Another Source of SRC!

With a Leprechaun and a Balor Cyclops already in the game, you’d think we’d tire of making Irish-themed myths. Think again! The rich culture gives us a lot of inspiration to draw from, and since we’ve embraced it as the theme for this month, new skins were the logical next step!

St. Patrick’s Day Skins

Like the Halloween skins, these skins are available in the Freeze Tag Store as a 3-Pack for $10! They will remain in the store until 23:59 MHQ on March 31st. You can shop them HERE!

Lady Leprechaun Oillipheist Hydra Far Darrig Faun
Landing Pads Landing Pads Landing Pads

If you don’t already own the base Myths, but are still interested in using these skins, here are the links to shop each one:

For more information on Skins, you can check out our Help Guide articles HERE and HERE.

Sham Rock Credits

You have the chance to earn 1 Sham Rock Credit upon capturing one of these skinned Myths. They don’t fall under the tPOB category, so we’ve added an entirely new source that you can earn SRC from! However, please note this will only apply in March. Once the month is over, you will no longer be able to earn SRC, as we stated in the original blog post.

We hope you look forward to seeing some new Myths on the map! Keep an eye on the Redeem Store as well… you never know what may show up!

Munzee on!

Updates to the Daily Activity Tracker

At the end of January, we released an update featuring a new Daily Activity Tracker screen. We’ve always planned to include rewards for completing streaks up to certain days, so we’re happy to announce that that feature is in this latest update, along with some other improvements suggested by you, the players!

If you’re interested, check to see if you’ve received Build #857 over-the-air — to find out what version you are currently on, look at the bottom of the [Help & Info] –> [About Us] page inside the app. If you have not received the latest automatic update, please restart the app. It may take a few tries depending on your Wi-fi/data connection.

NEW Rewards!

As you can see in the screenshots below, we’ve updated the calendar on the Daily Activity Tracker so that some rewards are sprinkled throughout the month.

After Day 28, the cycle of prizes starts over again — so that’s why in the screenshots above, you can see a Zed icon again on March 31st.

There are a few important things to note:

  1. You MUST tap the green [Collect Reward] button in the bottom-right corner of the calendar on the day the reward is available for it to be added to your account. If it is not collected before the next MHQ day, the calendar will update and you will not be able to collect the reward.
  2. If your streak is broken at any point, it will cause the cycle to reset, and push back the rewards for all subsequent days accordingly.
  3. As noted in our previous DAT blog, it may take a minute to update your streak information after a capture or deploy is completed. This means that if you tap the [Collect Reward] button while your captures or deploys are still processing, you may see the text on the button change to “Verifying…” like in the screenshot on the right. If you see this, you can stay on the screen and wait for all the processing to complete, or just try again later.

Other Improvements

Many players requested that we add the ability to scroll the calendar back so they can more easily see their past progress. We’ve added a small arrow button to the top-left corner of the calendar so you can scroll back to the previous month, and similarly, a small arrow button to the top-right corner of the calendar to return to the current month.

We hope this update brings some changes you were looking forward to, or, at the very least, runs smoothly for you! If you find that you are experiencing any issues, please let us know at support@munzee.com!

Munzee on!

NEW Limited-Time Credits are the Real Deal!

— UPDATE: As of 3/3/22 12:00 MHQ — The new tab in the Redeem Store is now live! Put those Sham Rocks to work!

You’ve heard of Candy Corn Credits and C04L Credits — now get ready for Sham Rock Credits!  After reviewing the activity on C04L Credits and making some improvements (we hope ?) we’ve created a new limited-time credit for you to earn and redeem!

Like Jewel Shards, Weapon Shards, and Cogs, you’ll be able to redeem Sham Rock Credits (SRC) at the Redeem Store for game pieces. However, similar to Candy Corn Credits and C04L Credits, they can only be redeemed until 02:30 MHQ on Sunday, April 3rd (when April Clan Wars starts).

How to Earn Sham Rock Credits

Sham Rock Credits can be earned from 00:01 MHQ on Tuesday, March 1st to 23:59 MHQ on Thursday, March 31st.

You can earn them the following ways:

  • Chance to earn 1 SRC upon capturing a tPOB
  • Chance to earn 1 SRC upon capturing a Destination
  • Chance to earn 1 SRC upon capturing Shamrocks (both Physical + Virtual)
  • Chance to earn 1 SRC upon capturing Emeralds
  • Chance to earn 1 SRC upon capturing a St. Patrick’s Day Greeting Card
    • Owners of these cards will also have a chance to receive SRC
  • Chance to earn 1 SRC upon capturing an Event Pin (excluding the Event Indicator Pin)
  • Chance to earn 3/4/5 SRC (dependent on type) upon opening a QRate
  • Guaranteed to earn 1 – 3 SRC upon capturing certain MOBs we’ll release next week!
  • — UPDATE: As of 3/9/22 12:00 MHQ — Chance to earn 1 SRC upon capturing a St. Patrick’s Day skinned Myth.

Goodies You Can Get With Sham Rock Credits

As usual, the most up-to-date list of what’s available will be what you see on munzee.com/redeem. Like the tabs for C04L Credits, you’ll only be able to redeem items in the “Week 1” tab during Week 1, after which, only the “Week 2” tab will be visible until Week 3, and so on. So make sure to spend your credits each week!

The rewards/rates may change from time to time, but to start off with, this is what we have planned:

However, you may see another tab appear later on, which will contain items that will remain available through the end of the month — this should appeal to those who are saving up!

ZEE-Dayz Coming Soon!

As mentioned in our social posts, expect a ZEE-Dayz event kicking off Thursday at 12:00 MHQ! Physical and Virtual Shamrock Munzees will see TRIPLE their normal point values, plus a special badge and sale!

If you are shooting for the the badge and exclusive bouncer for hosting an event every month this year, why not plan your March event for this weekend? Your attendees will be raking in the points! To refer to the details for the Monthly Event Packages again, click HERE!

May your pockets be heavy with Sham Rocks!

Munzee on!

March 2022 Skin: Lucky Flamingo

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

February Flamingo Reminders

If you haven’t picked up a Flamingo yet, they are available in the Freeze Tag Store for $11.

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 earlier in the month — if you’re interested, you can check out our blog post on them HERE!

March Flamingo Details

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

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

Points

  • Capture: 250
  • CapOn: 300

You can find these favored fowls riding the rainbow to the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Additionally, the Lucky Garden Flamingo will scatter up to 3 NEW Fortune Feathers nearby when it is captured!

Like the other Flamingo Feathers, the Fortune Feathers 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 feather scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

The rewards for Flamingo Feathers are as follows:

  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 50 points

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

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 Lucky Garden Flamingo:

NEW Personal Tags

Lastly, we’ve added some new Personal Tags to the store featuring our feathered friends — you can shop them HERE!

We wish you the best of luck in earning March’s Flamingo Skin!

Munzee on!
