Muru Pouch Creature Munzee Details

Get ready to rock and roll this Cyber Munzday!

There will be a limited number of Muru Pouch Creature Munzees available for $20 in the Freeze Tag Online Store Cyber Munzday (Monday, November 26th) at 12:00 MHQ time. We will release waves of Muru at different points of the day, so if you miss the initial launch there will still be more available later. These will be sold on a first come, first served basis, and there is a limit of 1 per account.

Muru:

The Pouch Creatures are based on items from our sister app, WallaBee. These creatures, while similar to Mythological Munzees in many respects, have some different qualities. The Muru Pouch Creature Munzee will bounce on Greenies and Earth Mystery Munzees every 6 hours or when capped.

Don’t forget that after 25 captures the Muru Pouch Creature Munzee will begin to level up!

To level up, a daily capture streak must be attained:

  • Level 1: 0-3 Consecutive Days of Capture
  • Level 2: 4-7 Consecutive Days of Capture
  • Level 3: 8+ Consecutive Days of Capture

Your Level 1 Pouch Creature will need 4 consecutive days of captures for it to evolve to Level 2, this will happen after the first capture on Day 4. Your Level 2 Pouch Creature will need 8 consecutive days of captures for it to evolve to Level 3, this will happen after the first capture on Day 8.

When the streak is broken, the Pouch Creature will revert to Level 1.

By leveling up a Muru Pouch Creature Munzee, the points for the owner, capper, and host owner will increase:

Points
Deploy: 250
Capture/CapOn:

  • Muru (Level 1)
    • Capture: 200 points
    • CapOn: 100 Points
    • CapOn (Host Owner): 50 points
  • Muruchi (Level 2)
    • Capture: 300 points
    • CapOn: 200 Points
    • CapOn (Host Owner): 50 points
  • Murutain (Level 3)
    • Capture: 500 points
    • CapOn: 300 points
    • CapOn (Host Owner): 50 points

A significant change to the Earth Mystery Munzee has also gone into effect. Earth Mysteries will no longer activate Recycle Munzees. Instead capping an Earth Mystery will scatter Boulder Munzees to Greenies nearby. Similar to Catapult Munzee three Boulders will be hurled to Greenies within a quarter mile radius for 1 hour. This feature is currently live.

The points for Earth Mystery Munzees will stay the same, but the Boulders’ points are as follows:

Boulders:

  • Capture: 40 Points
  • CapOn (Host Owner): 15 Points

For deploying a Muru Pouch Creature Munzee, you will earn a deploy badge:

There are also three badges (nine total) for capturing each level of the Muru Pouch Creature Munzee. Here are the first for each level:

Pouch Creatures can be a little shy, but luckily all three types (Muru, Tuli and Vesi) are attracted to physical Munzee Magnets as well! They will only be attracted as their Level 1 version though, so once they level up they won’t fall for any tricks! You can pick up Magnets in the Freeze Tag Online Store along with an Elemental Munzee Pak (which will also go live on Cyber Munzday) to help you hunt down more Pouch Creatures!

We hope you enjoy the Muru Pouch Creature Munzee!

2018 Advent Calendar Details

Cyber Munzday is nearly here! One of our most high profile items for sale is the all new Munzee Advent Calendar. Like we said in the Cyber Munzday preview, we won’t spoil the surprises for each day, but we did want to line out some of the details.

Much like other Advent Calendars, starting December 1st you’ll get one Munzee-themed reward each day leading up to Christmas. Some of these will be virtual or credit munzees, but there are a TON of surprises including access to a special Zee-Ops, limited edition badges, multi-point days, discounts and more.

These prizes will go out at 00:01 MHQ each day. Certain rewards (like ZeeOps and mutli-point days) will start the following day after the gift has been revealed. This is to allow you time to plan for these days.

Advent Calendars have over $60 value just for the products you’ll receive and that doesn’t include the value of badges, multi-point days, etc. So this is a great deal! Advent Calendars will sell for $25 on Cyber Munzday. They will then be removed from the Online Store until the beginning of December when they will cost $40.

The price will then decrease over time, but the gifts will not be retroactive. So if you purchase an Advent Calendar after 00:01 MHQ on December 5th, you will not receive the items for the first five days. The Advent Calendar will no longer be for sale after December 17th. So you should really just purchase yours on Cyber Munzday!

We’re super excited to celebrate the Holiday Zee-son with you all and this collection of products is a great way to count down with us! We thank you all once again for your excitement for Cyber Munzday- it’s sure to be a busy day.

Stay tuned for more Cyber Munzday product breakdowns over the next couple of days and Munzee on!

Cyber Munzday 2018 Preview!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Although the American offices will be celebrating Thanksgiving with their families tomorrow, Cyber Munzday will kick off the following Monday.

Our Cyber MunzDay sale will begin at 12:00 PM (Noon) MHQ time on Monday, November 26th and will last until 12:00 PM MHQ time on Tuesday, November 27th. Per usual the Munzee Online Store will be offline between 10:30 and 11:59 MHQ time on Monday in preparation for the sales as well as from 12:01 through 14:00 MHQ time on Tuesday to make changes.

We’ve got quite a few sales, which you can find detailed below. Throughout the rest of this week we’ll be releasing more detailed blog posts on the individual items leading into Cyber Munzday.

2018 Advent Calendar- $25 (Limit One Per Player)

We can’t say this clearly enough: You’re gonna want to get your hands on this!

Much like other Advent Calendars, starting December 1st you’ll get one Munzee-themed reward each day leading up to Christmas. Some of these will be virtual munzees, but there are a TON of surprises including access to a special Zee-Ops, limited edition badges, multi-point days, discounts and more! We won’t spoil the surprises, but this is really going to be a treat you won’t want to miss out on. More details to come…

Muru Pouch Creature- $20 (Limit one per player)

The latest cuddly critter from the Pouch Creature line is the rockin’ roller Muru! As you can imagine these grassy growlers will be attracted to Earth Mystery Munzees, which are also getting a bit of a change on Cyber Munzday. We’ll have more details later regarding the specifics, but per usual there will be a limited number of Muru Pouch Creatures released at various points in the day.

Bowling Ball Munzee- $15 (Sheet of 10)

This all new addition to the gaming line of Munzees (RPS and Prize Wheels) is sure to knock a few pins loose! Again, we’ll have more details soon, but this is Munzee’s take on a bowling mini game. When you capture a Bowling Ball Munzee a new munzee type called “1st Roll” will be scattered nearby. You can either earn a Strike or another munzee called “2nd Roll” will be scattered nearby for a chance to earn a Spare. Bowling Ball Munzees will come in sheets of 10 for $15 ($1.50 each) on Cyber Munzday, but will normally be $25 ($2.50 each). More details regarding points and how it works will be in a separate blog post.

New Myth Variants and Discounted Myth Upgrades- $4 per Myth

We have four all new Myth Variants that will go live on Cyber Munzday! There will be two new variants for both the Leprechaun and the Mermaid at 12:00 MHQ. Although Mermaids are already upgraded, you’ll need to buy a Myth Upgrade for the Leprechaun in order to convert it. If you didn’t Upgrade your Unicorn, now is a great time to do that as well because for Cyber Munzday Myth Upgrades will be discounted from $5 to $4. We’ll have more details about the individual Myth Variants in a separate blog post.

Personal Tags and Christmas Ornaments- Various Pricing 

What do all the good little boys and girls, all around the world, want from Santa? New Munzee personals of course! We have a handful of Cyber Munzday designs, as well as brand new Christmas ornament designs. These metal ornaments will come in a variety of shapes and there will be the option to add a personal code to it.

Limited Edition Closeout Apparel- Various Pricing 

Ever wish you could tell all your friends you went to MHQ Bash 4, when you actually had your second cousin’s third wedding that weekend? You’re in luck! We have a handful of different items from various events including shirts, hats, glasses and more! We want these deeply discounted items off the shelf, so load up now while you can. Limited sizes and supplies.

We’ll also have a handful of other discounted items for sale in a Cyber Munzday collection in the Freeze Tag Online Store. Follow the blog for the rest of the week for more information regarding the new items listed above. It’s sure to be a busy day, but as always Munzee teaches patience and Munzee on!

Virtual Garden Places Munzees!

We’ve got an all new Places Munzee and this one is special! Have you ever wanted an easy way to identify where Munzee Virtual Gardens are without having to load the entire design on the map? Well you’re in luck!

Starting RIGHT NOW you can purchase Virtual Garden Places Munzees in the Freeze Tag Online Store at https://store.freezetag.com/products/places-munzees!

Virtual Garden Places Munzees can be deployed as an indicator of a Munzee Virtual Garden. These gardens can be made up of any type of virtual Munzee (clan weapons, jewels, etc.). Please note that this type is not a part of the actual Garden, but instead a pin to indicate its general location. Munzee Virtual Gardens are player created works of art based on Virtual Munzee deploys. Examples of Virtual Gardens include Sunset Cowboy in Ft. Worth, TX, Rose Garden in UK, and Scared Kitty in Lithuania. You may also choose to deploy this type of Place near an official Munzee Emerald Garden.

There are so many unique Virtual Gardens throughout the world, so this new Places Munzee will work slightly different than others. Virtual Garden Places Munzees have a lowered 0.5 mile deploy proximity, so if there are other Gardens nearby you’ll still be able to deploy one. Only one Place is allowed per garden, and the garden must contain a minimum of 50 virtual type Munzees. When submitting your Virtual Garden Places Munzee for approval we ask that you include a link to the Garden’s location on the Munzee map and also any helpful information in the Munzee Notes section. You can do this by submitting and then visiting the Munzee page to update the name and notes while it is pending approval. Also if there is a spreadsheet associated with the garden link it in the description so others can help grow it.

Since Virtual Garden Places Munzees will need to be double checked on the Munzee map it may take a bit longer than usual to approve these. Please bear with our support staff and if they decline your submission please work with them to locate the area for confirmation. You will receive an email with approval or rejection with a reason. Please see all details about Places Munzees in our help manual.

Virtual Garden Places Munzees are available for $5, and you can purchase two per account every 30 days. Normal Places Munzees are $10 each and you are limited to one per type every 30 days. Since these new Munzees are more affordable, and they are allowed to be closer together, the points for Virtual Garden Places Munzees are a bit lower as well.

Points:
  • Deploy: 40
  • Capture: 10
  • Cap-On: 5

Like other Places Munzees, these will have 1,000 ft capture radius, can be captured daily, but cannot be captured via Blast Captures. You can also earn badges for capturing Places Munzees as well as capture streaks!

With all of these new Places Munzees available we have expanded the Places Munzee filters in the current version of the Munzee app. You’ll now be able to filter the map by individual Places Munzee types. So if you’re just looking for Virtual Gardens, you’ll be able to make that a bit easier. The current layout of the filters may seem a bit clunky, but a filter reorganization is a big feature for Munzee 4.0, so this will be a lot more organized when that version launches soon. Once again thank you for your patience as we roll out new Munzee types alongside our 4.0 development!

So get out there and explore the artistic glory of Virtual Garden Munzees!

Munzee on!

Gallop away with Flat Hammock!

The Flat Friends are about to make a new pal! Flat Rob, Flat Matt, and Flat Lou will have to watch their gameplay, because the ban hammer is knocking- welcome the all new Flat Hammock!

This new game piece is based on the one-man wrecking crew Daniel Hammock, who has been running Munzee Support for 5 years. No one at MHQ can think of a time when they’ve actually called him Daniel, or Danny as his family calls him. He’s always affectionately been known as Hammock. Although he started off as a player, in Hammock’s own words, his “dream came true” when he was given “the opportunity of a lifetime” to work for Munzee. Even before officially joining MHQ, Hammock always took it upon himself to help out the Munzee community with any and all issues that would arise. He is best known within the community for swinging the ban hammer, punishing all those who break the code of conduct. To those who know him well he’s a fluffy unicorn of a guy who is very kind and giving. In his free time he enjoys taking his family out for crazy Youtube adventures for the Munzee Monthly Giveaway and giving away prizes each month for players to enjoy. He’s also an avid fan of unicorns, if the Flat Hammock design didn’t make that very apparent.

The first Flat Hammock has been released as a permanent special in Gettysburg, PA. Players will normally be able to purchase their own Flat Hammocks in the Freeze Tag Online Store for $4. In celebration of our new Flat Friend though all Flat Munzees will be discounted! Remember that Flat Friends are not always on sale, so stock up while you can!

The Flat Friends Sale will last until Friday at 15:00 MHQ:

  • Hammock: $3.75- originally $4
  • Rob: $3.75- originally $4
  • Louise: $4 (with $0.25 still going to charity)- originally $4.25
  • Matt: $4.75- originally $5

Players with a Premium Membership will also receive one free Flat Hammock as well.

Like the other Flat Friends, Flat Hammock has a unique release schedule. Hammock may love working for Munzee, but he keeps busy with a variety of other jobs as well. Like other Flats he will choose when Flat Hammocks are available on the map, which will be during his working hours, major event seasons and more. Please note that all scheduled times are based on MHQ time and are subject to change. Since we’re in the middle of Halloween events though, all Flat Friends are on the map until the end of the month and Flat Hammock will join in the fun too!

Here is the general breakdown of Flat Hammocks:

Points:

Deploy – 19 Points
Cap/CapOn – Split 80 points with a minimum of 10 points.

Proximity: 

Flat Hammocks’ proximity is not affected by other munzees except other Flats. Flat Hammocks must be 50ft from other players’ deploys and 150ft from your own deploys.

You’ll also be able to earn a variety of badges for capturing and deploying Flat Hammocks.

Deploy Badges:

Capture Badges:

Don’t forget about DOUBLE POINT FLAT FRIENDS WEEKEND! On Friday we challenged our players to attend events and capture event pins, and they successfully completed the challenge! There will be double points on all Flat Friends captures and deploys beginning October 26 at 00:01 until October 28 at 23:59. That’s MH-BOO Bash weekend too, so if you’re looking for somewhere to deploy why not check out McKinney, TX! The calendar is also full of events all month long!

Thank you all for your support of the Support Man himself. Our Flat Friends line of munzees would not be possible without the enthusiasm of our players. Of course a huge THANK YOU to Hammock for his dedication to this game. So beware the ban hammer, hug Hammock when you meet him and Munzee On!

Introducing Great Britain Iconic Location Munzees and Unique Attractions Places Munzee!

We’re excited to announce a new line of munzees based on Great British iconic locations! Just like World Heritage Locations, and Florida and California Historic Munzees, Great Britain Iconic Locations have been deployed at culturally significant locations throughout England with additional countries to follow over time!

Similar to the other tourism munzees, the GB Iconic Location Munzees are deployed by an MHQ account based on a database of historically and culturally significant attractions. This time we also had some help from Munzee player pilsleyguy who was gracious enough to gather notable locations! Thanks for all your hard work! These all new munzees will be deployed at a variety of areas like the Robin Hood Statue in Nottingham, Sir Steve Redgrave Statue in Marlow, and The Martian in Woking. Players will find these deployed across each of the counties in England.

When captured, players will earn 50 points. These virtual munzees are not blastable, so you’ll have to get out and learn a bit more about these iconic locations! If you notice any that are deployed in the wrong location please contact support with the name/URL of the munzee and correct information.

As we have stated before, we plan to continue to expand this line of munzees into more states and different countries as well in the coming months.

We’re also excited to announce a new Places Munzee for Unique Attractions. We want to see these at the weirdest roadside wonders the world has to offer! Get yours in the Freeze Tag Store TODAY at https://store.freezetag.com/products/places-munzees!

These new Places Munzees can be deployed at unique attractions across the world. These can include tourist traps like the World’s Largest Ball Of Twine in Kansas, or the Mirror Ball in England. Since these are a bit more obscure than other Places Munzees they will need to be searchable on Google Maps and may take a bit longer than usual to approve. Please bear with our support staff and if they decline your submission please work with them to locate the area for confirmation. You will receive an email with approval or rejection with a reason. Please see all details about Places Munzees in our help manual.

Places Munzees have a 1,000 ft capture radius, can be captured daily, but cannot be captured via Blast Captures. Please note that although these may be deployed at large structures or unique monuments, many notable spots may already be Historical Location Places or Museum Places.

Unique Attractions Places Munzees are available for $10, and you can purchase one of each type per account every 30 days. Remember that Places Munzees have recently had a point increase and you can purchase other types of Places as well!

Good luck on your iconic adventures! Munzee on!

September Flat Schedule

But first some information about Real Louise and Flat Lou!

Flat Lou has not been sold for the month of August while we worked out a change to where our donation will be directed due to a special event! From August 29 through September 5 each Flat Lou sold will include a donation of $0.25 to The Motor Neurone Disease Association (MNDA). We’ve donated to *MNDA in the past and due to the special circumstances of this upcoming weekend we are excited to donate to them again.

*About motor neurone disease (MND) and the MND Association:

  • MND is a fatal, rapidly progressing disease that affects the brain and spinal cord.
  • It attacks the nerves that control movement so muscles no longer work. MND does not usually affect the senses such as sight, sound, feeling etc.
  • It can leave people locked in a failing body, unable to move, talk and eventually breathe.
  • It affects people from all communities.
  • It kills around 30% of people within a year of diagnosis, and 50% within 21 months.
  •  A person’s lifetime risk of developing MND is up to 1 in 300.
  • Six people per day are diagnosed with MND in the UK.
  • It affects up to 5,000 adults in the UK at any one time.
  • It kills six people per day in the UK, this is just under 2,200 per year
  • It has no cure. The MND Association was founded in 1979 by a group of volunteers with experience of living with, or caring for, someone with MND. Since then, we have grown significantly, with an ever-increasing community of volunteers, supporters and staff, all sharing the same goal – to support people with MND and everyone who cares for them, both now and in the future.
  • We improve care and support for people with MND, their families and carers.
  • We fund and promote research that leads to new understanding and treatments and brings us closer to a cure for MND.
  • We campaign and raise awareness so the needs of people with MND, and everyone who cares for them, are recognised and addressed by wider society.
