  • Virtual MunzPak features a variety of virtual munzees that are automatically added to your account each month such as Destination Munzees, Jewels, and more. $~40 value for $25 each month.
  • Hybrid MunzPak is the best of both worlds! Get both physical and virtual munzees such as Places Munzees, Magnets, and more. $~30 value for $20.01 each month.

Baby Animals

Continuing last year’s Baby Animals line, these cuties are temporary POBs. They bounce to either physical or virtual munzees, depending on the MunzPak you purchased. They will stay on the map until 23:59 MHQ on May 31, when they will be automatically archived on your account.

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

Doge Pup Munzee
Physical MunzPak

Ever curious about the world, this furry friend loves to accompany you on all your outings and inspect anything unfamiliar with his high-functioning schnozz. This purehearted Baby Animal races to the following:

  • Treehouse
  • Greenie
  • Earth Mystery
  • Water Mystery
  • Dog Chinese Zodiac

Itty Bitty Kitty Munzee
Virtual MunzPak

This little soot sprite of a cat has become famous on the internet for her cute looks and soft meow, but she hasn’t let it get to her head! This adorable Baby Animal slinks to the following:

  • Skyland
  • All Virtual Colors
  • Air Mystery
  • Wildlife Places

Baby Monkey Munzee
Hybrid MunzPak

He may be a baby, but his opposable thumbs and well-formed arm muscles allow him to climb up and down trees with ease — meaning he can reach more landing pads than the other two! This acrobatic Baby Animal swings to the following:

  • Treehouse
  • Greenie
  • Earth Mystery
  • Water Mystery
  • Monkey Chinese Zodiac
  • Skyland
  • All Virtual Colors
  • Air Mystery
  • Wildlife 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

All players who purchase a MunzPak (which will automatically deploy the respective Baby Animal) 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 2 months to earn them by capping these tPOBs! We have added 2 new badges to that line, meaning that there are now a total of 10 badges to work towards! 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 May, so cap as many as you can and keep them bouncing!

Munzee on!

Jack In Zee Box Wasn’t the Only Trick Up Our Sleeves!

There are two types of people in this world: the pranksters and the pranked. Which will you be? If it’s the former, you’ll need some supplies, which we are happy to provide! Starting at 10:00 MHQ on April 1st, April Fools specials will bounce around the map until 23:59 MHQ on April 30th.

April Fools Specials

We’ll be passing out the goods in waves, but will end at a total of 700 Bags of Tricks and 700 Sacks of Surprises. They will bounce around on the map every 4 hours or when captured. You can find these curveball carriers bouncing to the following:

Both will be worth 150 points for the Capture and 50 points for the CapOn, so you don’t want to miss out! Bags of Tricks will be attracted to Physical Magnets, while Sacks of Surprises will be attracted to Virtual Magnets. To access these specials, please turn on your “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters.

When you capture a Bag of Tricks or a Sack of Surprises, up to three different Prank Munzees will scatter to nearby Greenies or Virtual Colors, depending on their type. These munzees will stay on the map for 2 hours or when captured, and are worth 50 points for the Capture.

Additionally, when you capture a Prank Munzee up to 3 Elemental Scatters will be triggered! They behave the same way as they would when scattered from Elemental Mysteries.

Badges

There will be six badges to earn for these specials. Four are based on the total number of April Fools specials you capture, but just how many captures it takes to earn all 4 badges will be kept a secret! Of the remaining two badges, the first is based on capturing each of the different Prank Munzees you see here. The second is based on the total number of Prank Munzees captured. You can see the first badge below:

Wet Blanket- Capture one April Fools special of either type.

We hope your heart can handle these startling specials!

Munzee on!

NEW Filters Allow You To Explore Like Never Before!

With the myriad munzee types out there, using Filters is a must to make the most of your time. After all, one of our mottos is “Play your way”, and you may not be interested in ALL munzee types.

We also know that many of our players have multiple hobbies related to being outdoors. So, to make things even more convenient for you, we’ve started a NEW line of filters that should make it easier to engage in some of those hobbies at the same time as Munzee! There are only 2 to start, but keep an eye out for more filter announcements in the future!

The Metal Detector Mode filter will show the location of buried metal artifacts up to 8 ft deep. Please note that this filter’s accuracy is dependent on the size of the artifact and your distance from it. A wrench buried at a depth of 2 ft will have a much more accurate location than a paper clip that is at a depth of 6 ft.

The Paranormal Mode filter will show the location of ghosts as they take on a corporeal form. Please note that this filter’s accuracy is dependent on the strength of the ghost’s spirit. Older ghosts tend to be weaker as they begin to forget their purpose for haunting the Earth.

You’ll find the Metal Detector Mode filter in the Physical tab, the Paranormal Mode filter in the Virtual tab, and both in the Premium tab, as you can see in the screenshots below:

We hope these colorful new filters enhance your app experience!

Munzee on!

Pop! Goes the Jack In Zee Box!

Do you enjoy toy-themed munzees, like our Christmas Combat specials? Have we got a game piece for you! While this toy does have a lot of things in common with the Christmas Combat specials (particularly the non-scattering ones), we actually looked to another toy — our past Magic 8 Ball specials — for inspiration!

Jack In Zee Box Details

The Jack In Zee Box is the first temporary POB (tPOB) available for purchase in the In-App Store! It will cost 750 Zeds, but we aren’t sure how long this jack will stay in the box. It may pop away by the 4th, the 14th or the 30th, so pick one up soon if you’re interested! They are limited to 1 per player.

Jack In Zee Box will bounce to both physical and virtual munzees. It will stay on the map until 23:59 MHQ on May 11 OR after 41 captures (whichever comes first) when it will be automatically archived on your account.

  • Deploy: 300 points
  • Capture: 200 points
  • CapOn: 100 points

Though there will only be one icon shown on the map, once the Jack In Zee Box is captured, 1 of 10 possible icons will be revealed. Curious as to what you’ll find inside? We’ll give you a sneak peek, but you’re going to have to get busy capping to discover the other 9 icons. This first one may be a familiar face for those who played in back in 2017!

Jack In Zee Boxes will bounce around every 6 hours or when capped to the following types:

The Jack In Zee Box will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture a Jack In Zee Box on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same Jack In Zee Box visits you. However, Jack In Zee Boxes are non-blastable. They will be attracted to Magnets. You can access Jack In Zee Boxes under the “All Limited Edition Specials” and “All Expiring Specials” filters.

Badges

All players who purchase a Jack In Zee Box will receive the deploy badge shown below:

Silly Spring- Deploy one Jack In The Box Munzee.

There is also a badge line for overall captures of Jack In Zee Box munzees. However, since these badges reveal some of the other Jack In Zee Box heads, we’ll keep their appearance a secret for now.

We hope you enjoy this newest invention from the MHQ Workshop!

Munzee on!

For Your Mental Health, Take a Virtual Vacation!

Today is National Virtual Vacation Day, which is perhaps the most important holiday of all in these times. Maybe you’re a Hometown Hero who’s been required to go to work as usual this whole time (at great risk to your health), or maybe you’ve been fortunate to work from home but have been constantly on-call (to the detriment of your work-life balance). We ALL need a vacation, but for many of us, a staycation is the only option right now. So, to make your socially-distanced neighborhood walk a little more travel-themed, we have nearly a week of bonuses for you to enjoy!

Double Points Details

From the period of Tuesday, March 30th at 12:00 MHQ through Sunday, April 4th at 23:59 MHQ, enjoy double points on ALL Destination activity!

This includes points earned from rooms AND Destination Credits!

Store Sale!

For the same period as double points, Destinations will be available in the Freeze Tag Store at 20% off!

There are also some NEW Apparel designs so you can say “Mentally I’m here” without speaking a word!

We hope you make time to get your daily dose of sunshine and fresh air not only this week, but every week!

Munzee on!

Perfectly Pastel Greeting Cards for Easter!

Is it just us, or is Easter coming a little earlier than usual this year? Thankfully, we did some prep WAY in advance, so this announcement is right on time for the celebration!

We are happy to announce 6 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. These will be on sale through Monday April 5th at 12:00 MHQ.

NEW Greeting Card Munzee Details

We have 6 new Limited Edition cards for your deploying pleasure!

These Card Packs are set up a little differently this time, so here’s a breakdown:

  • The Easter Basket Card product will be a 4 pack containing 1 Easter Basket Card, 1 Pink Easter Egg Card, 1 Blue Easter Egg Card, and 1 Green Easter Egg Card
    • Normally Limited Edition cards are only 3 packs, so you get 1 card free!*
  • The Easter Bunny Card product will be a 3 pack containing 3 Easter Bunny Cards
  • The Easter Chick Card product will be a 3 pack containing 3 Easter Chick Cards

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
    • Winter
    • Summer
  • Limited Edition (will rotate depending on occasion; ONE Purchase yields THREE munzees)
    • Stay Home
    • Tech Issues (not available for sale)
    • March Into May Event (only available to March into May event hosts for their events)
    • Easter Basket Card*
      • Pink Easter Egg Card
      • Blue Easter Egg Card
      • Green Easter Egg Card
    • Easter Bunny Card
    • Easter Chick Card

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!

March Garden Gnome Reminder + April Preview!

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

March Garden Gnome Reminders

If you haven’t picked up a Garden Gnome yet, they are available in the Freeze Tag Store for $10.

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

April Garden Gnome Details

What Gnome Skin can you look forward to receiving in April? The highly motivated Running Garden Gnome! Like the other gnomes, the Running 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 (March’s) capture streak. Once the skin is awarded in April, 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 speedy sprinters traveling to the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Additionally, the Running Garden Gnome will scatter up to 3 NEW Gnome Headphones nearby when it is captured!

Like the other Gnome Hats, the Gnome Headphones 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 Running Garden Gnome will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture Running Garden Gnomes on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same Running Garden Gnome visits you. Running Garden Gnomes are non-blastable. They will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access Running 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 Running Garden Gnome:

We hope you don’t run out of breath while earning April’s Gnome Skin! Don’t forget to keep your streak up through April — you’ll need to in order to earn the May Gnome Skin!

Munzee on!

Forge Weapon Shards into Something Nameworthy!

After last month’s success with Jewel Shards and their spotlight this month during Jewel Day, we wanted to keep the momentum going and create another shard type! In our quest to create more flexible systems for our players so that they can play their way, we decided that Clan Weapons would be the next priority.

If you’re a new player, you may not have many Clan Weapons yet — but keep reading so that you’re prepared for the future! Otherwise, if you’re an experienced player, you may have an overstock of specific Clan Weapon Credits. You’ll be able to choose if you want to redeem some of your Clan Weapon Credits for Weapon Shards. If you do, you’ll be able to use those Weapon Shards to create new Clan Weapons of your choosing. For example, you may have tons of Maces stored up from past Clan War rewards and have no plans on using them. Now you have the option of breaking some of those Maces into Weapon Shards and using them to get The Hammer. The choice will be yours within the options given.

Don’t worry if you have any Clan Weapon Credits saved up — those will remain. Please also note that only Credits can be converted to Weapon Shards — meaning existing Crossbows and Catapults cannot be converted. However, you will be able to convert Weapon Shards to any of the 6 weapons. Moving forward, Clan Wars will award Weapon Shards instead of specific weapons. Of course, not all Weapons are created equal, so different amounts of Weapon Shards are required to convert to each Clan Weapon type.

You’ll find all the details and conversion rates at munzee.com/redeem. These rewards/rates may change from time to time, and the Trojan Unicorn may even be found. Remember it is archived at the end of each clan war, so choose your timing wisely!

While Weapon Shards are currently only available as trading elements online or Clan War rewards, who knows what the future holds? Perhaps you’ll be able to forge something new? Only time will tell!

Munzee on!

March 2021 GOTM Winners

March has certainly been a month of innovation! We kicked things off with the new Bee Evolutions in MunzPaks, followed soon after by Reseller Garden Gnomes! As socially-distanced events are starting to pick up again, we launched some new March into May Event options, which are perfect for adding the charm of Spring to the map!

Speaking of events, we had something to celebrate almost every week! First was real-life Lou’s #ChooseToChallenge campaign with limited-time Fancy Flat Lou scatters and badges! Next, part 1 of Roverhaul was delivered in our Jewel Day 2021 event. Currently our St. Patrick’s day event is underway, which saw the re-release of the Virtual Shamrock, new Greeting Cards, and ways to earn Zeds from Zee Folk and Leprechauns.

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

March GOTM

It’s rare for a month to have 2 gardens which highlight our different releases so well — it just goes to show you that any design can have its time to shine, so don’t hesitate to let us know about completed gardens you enjoy! 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 Laidley Bee Love Garden, designed by BonnieB1, and the Lou [and Rob]-Feld Garden, designed by paupau, as our winning March GOTM! The gardens appear as follows:

Laidley Bee Love by BonnieB1 in Queensland, Australia

BonnieB1 does it again with this sweet design! We especially love her use of Carnation and Field Evos!

While this garden was submitted in February since it was created with Valentine’s Day in mind, we wanted to save it for this month as it was the debut of our Bee Evolutions!

Lou [and Rob]-Feld by paupau in Bielefeld, Germany

It can be hard to make silhouettes recognizable, but paupau did a great job with Flat Lou’s shape, assisted with monochrome virtuals for her helmet and bike.

This winner was another no-brainer as it reminded us of the limited-time Fancy Flat Lou scatters, and the theme of women and their accomplishments overall.

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.

Send your nomination for GOTM to iloveyou@munzee.com! 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!

Keep Your Eyes Peeled for Zee Folk and Leprechauns!

As promised at the start of the week, we have some more St. Patrick’s-day themed fun for you to enjoy all the way through the end of the month! Keep an eye out for these little green men — they will be hard to spot, but you may find your pockets a little heavier after an encounter! And no, they’re not aliens — or are they?

Zee Folk Details

Starting at 12:00 MHQ today, Zee Folk specials will bounce around the map until 23:59 MHQ on March 31st.

Only 17 Zee Folk specials will be available to cap! They will bounce around every 4 hours or when capped. Zee Folk will appear on the following landing pads:

  • Greenies
  • Physical Shamrocks
  • Virtual Shamrocks
  • Flat Rob
  • Flat Lou
  • Green-colored Virtuals:
    • Virtual Sea Green
    • Virtual Granny Smith Apple
    • Virtual Green
    • Virtual Forest Green
    • Virtual Asparagus
    • Virtual Olive Green
    • Virtual Yellow Green
    • Virtual Green Yellow
    • Virtual Spring Green

As these specials are so rare, they will be worth 1,000 points for the Capture and 50 points for the CapOn! You definitely don’t want to miss out! They will be attracted to Magnets. To access these specials, please turn on your “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Edition Specials” filters.

When you capture a Zee Folk special, there is a chance that you will earn 17 Zeds! The popup that appears after you’ve captured a Zee Folk will let you know if you’ve earned any, so make sure to keep an eye out! You will also find them on your credits list.

There are 3 badges you can earn for capturing Zee Folk. You can check out the first below!

Flat Hatter- Capture one Zee Folk Munzee.

Limited Time Scatter Details

For the same period as Zee Folk activity, when you capture a Leprechaun or Leprechaun Variant, up to 3 Colored Zeds may be scattered nearby! These are the same Colored Zeds that scattered out of Rainbow Trails last year!

If you don’t own any Leprechauns, or would like to own more, you can pick them up in the store HERE! Remember that as of the Cyclops and Nymph Variant release last year, you can purchase multiples of the same myth! For a detailed explanation of how that works, refer to the blog post HERE!

Like last year, Colored Zeds will stay on the map for 1 hour or when captured. Each will award 100 points AND potentially a small number of Zeds to your account! We thought this would be a fun way to accumulate some extra currency to go towards Magnets, Secret ZeeOps, or whatever you want!

For more information about Leprechauns and their variants, check out our Help Guide articles HERE and HERE!

Munzee on!
