Calculate Your Pumpkoin Balance with this NEW Mech!

In our first Pumpkoins 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 Thursday, November 3rd (the expiration date we had set for Pumpkoins) — so you don’t need to worry about them going away like the items in the [Pumpkoins (Week X)] tab (which swaps out on 12:00 MHQ every Friday)!

The main change you’ll notice is that this new tab is limited to Premium members only.

Currently there’s only one item in there right now, so here’s everything you need to know!

Count Calcula Details

Like the other Munzee Mechz, Count Calcula is a temporary POB that will remain on the map until it has been captured 5 times. At 12:00 MHQ today, it was made available in the Redeem Store in the [Pumpkoins Surprises] tab for 25 PC. If you decide to make the trade, a Count Calcula will be automatically deployed on your account at once! You will also receive the Blueprint to rebuild it when you have earned enough Cogs in the future.

Count Calcula
Points
  • Deploy: 678
  • Capture: 150-250
  • CapOn: 123-234
  • Nesting (5th Cap): 500
Landing Pads

You can find these toothy tools flying to the landing pads above every 6 hours or when captured.

Count Calcula will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture a Count Calcula on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same Count Calcula visits you. Count Calcula is non-blastable. He will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access him by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” filter.

When a Count Calcula is captured, it will scatter up to 3 BATteries.

BATtery
Points
  • Capture: 50
  • CapOn: 25

These scatters will be visible to any player and will be deployed on the Mech owner’s account. This means that unlike Air Mystery Feathers/Boulders, there are CapOn points for the owner!  They expire after 120 minutes, have a capture radius of 300 feet, and you’ll be able to use Rover Treats to capture them as well. These scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

Badges

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

We hope Count Calcula makes math a little less scary!

Munzee on!

Halloween Greeting Cards + ZEE-Dayz

As promised, our ZEE-Dayz is starting now with double points on all Greeting Cards from Thursday, October 13th at 12:01 MHQ through Sunday, October 16th at 23:59 MHQ.

To make sure you can maximize your points and Pumpkoin earnings, we have 5 new Limited Edition cards AND 5 old Limited Edition Cards for your deploying pleasure! You can head to the Greeting Card collection HERE to see everything, or read on for the direct links to each item, PLUS some more details on the double points period!

NEW Greeting Card Munzee Details

The first is a bit different compared to the others, as it’ll scatter 1 Screaming Balloon Munzee upon deploy as shown below, on the card owner’s account.

Screaming Telegram Card Screaming Balloon Scatter
Points Points
  • Limited Edition
    • Deploy: 60
    • Capture: 50
    • CapOn: 30
  • Capture: 50
  • CapOn: 33

What makes the scatter unique is that it will remain for the ENTIRE 7-Day period, rather than disappearing upon first cap, AND it will be blastable. So, it’s basically 2 deploys in 1! If you get lucky, the balloon may end up closer to your desired location if the area is densely packed, as scatters are not subject to the same proximity rules as Greeting Cards.

For this reason, as it has the potential to earn you more points than the normal Limited Edition Cards, we’ve made it a 2-pack for $1 instead of the usual 3-pack. You can shop the Screaming Telegram card HERE!

The Screaming Balloon will have a capture radius of 300 feet, and you’ll be able to use Rover Treats to capture them as well. They will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

The remaining 4 are additional “Greetings From…” cards, this time with some more spooky locations! You can shop them HERE, along with the previous batches of cards, if you missed out!

As they are all Limited Edition cards, the points are as follows:

  • Deploy: 60
  • Capture: 50
  • CapOn: 30

You can stock up on these cards and save them for later (the Screaming Telegram cards will still scatter), BUT they will only be in the store until 12:00 MHQ on November 1st!

Past Halloween Greeting Cards Return!

You may recall that we released the CHOMPliment Greeting Cards last year! We thought it might be nice for us to bring them back for a short while.

You can shop the past Halloween Cards HERE! They will also leave the store at 12:00 MHQ on November 1st!

General Info

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!

Remember that these munzees will be archived 7 days after they are deployed, so make sure your intended recipient captures it before then!

We hope you enjoy sending ghoulish greetings this weekend!

Munzee on!

Changes to Joining a Clan

By now, you’ve probably seen at least one of the posts we put out earlier this month encouraging you to give Clan Wars a try! While we’ll continue to monitor your feedback on the Clan War Requirements, they aren’t the only things we’re looking to change and improve.

We want to ensure a competitive and fair battleground, so certain changes have been made regarding how players can join a clan. Moving forward players will only be able to join a clan until the 12th of each month. After the 12th you will be unable to join a new clan. When the 13th day of the month starts at MHQ it will be TOO late.

To help newer players take part in Clan Wars we’ll still allow accounts 90 days old and under to join all month long, but we still encourage solidifying your team by the 12th. We appreciate your understanding that these changes will benefit the integrity of Clan Wars as a whole.

As part of the app update that enforces this change, error popups have been added that will clearly show this new rule. That way, even those who haven’t yet seen this post should be aware of the new rule once they see the popups. This goes into effect October 13, 2022 – so be sure you join a clan BEFORE then if you are interested this month.

Munzee on!

Redeem Pumpkoins for Prizes!

You’ve heard of Candy Corn Credits, C04L Credits, Sham Rock Credits, and Painted Rose Credits — now get ready for Pumpkoin Credits! After reviewing the activity on Painted Rose 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 Pumpkoin Credits (PC) at the Redeem Store for game pieces. However, like the past limited-time credits, they can only be redeemed until 02:30 MHQ on Thursday, November 3rd (when November Clan Wars starts).

How to Earn Pumpkoin Credits

Pumpkoin Credits can be earned from now until 23:59 MHQ on Monday, October 31st.

You can earn them the following ways:

Goodies You Can Get With Pumpkoin 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 Painted Rose 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:

  • ALL Players:
    • 1 Fall Greeting Card: 1 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 5 per Premium player
    • 1 Wish I Was Here Greeting Card: 1 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 5 per Premium player
    • 1 Physical Magnet: 5 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 2 per Premium player
    • 1 Virtual Magnet: 5 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 2 per Premium player
    • 5 Cogs: 20 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 2 per Premium player
  • Premium Players:

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!

We hope you enjoy cashing in these shiny new Pumpkoins!

Munzee on!

Enter the Candy Crypt, if You Dare!

This October, to get you in the mood for all things scary and spooky, we’ve gone a bit more gruesome with our themed specials — but with a sugary twist as you’ll see later on. For now, expect to see the usual trimmings of Halloween decor — think skeletons and monster parts — with a few sweet surprises mixed in. These specials are live NOW until 23:59 MHQ time on November 6th!

Candy Crypt Specials

These specials will be released in waves, but will end at a total of 2,000 Mummy Caskets and 2,000 Vampire Coffins. Though there will only be one icon shown on the map, at launch there are a possibility of 3 different icons for each (a total of 6 different results!) revealed after this special is captured.

Each icon will correspond with a different artifact that will not be visible until captured, similar to how the Magic 8 Ball specials worked. More artifacts will appear as the month goes on, so make sure to keep an eye out!

They will bounce around every 2 hours or when capped.

Mummy Casket Vampire Coffin
Points Points
  • Capture: 150
  • CapOn: 50
  • Capture: 150
  • CapOn: 50
Landing Pads Landing Pads

Curious as to the contents of these body boxes? We’ll give you a sneak peek, but you’ll have to track down some Candy Crypt specials to discover the other 5 (for now) options:

These munzees will not be blastable. They will be attracted to magnets, available from the Freeze Tag Online Store. You can access the Candy Crypt specials under the “All Expiring Specials” and “All Limited Specials” filters.

Badges

There is also a line of 5 new badges to earn. They are all based on receiving specific combinations of the results.

Since, as mentioned above, more artifacts will appear as the month goes on, at launch it is only possible to earn one of the badges, but we’ll keep it a secret for now.

A Peek at Pumpkoins

When you capture a Candy Crypt special, you have the chance to earn 1 Pumpkoin, which you can see below:

These will work just like past limited-time credits, for example the Candy Corn Credits (the first of their kind!) or the Painted Rose Credits (the most recent one before this one).

You can check out the new Pumpkoins (Week 1) tab in the Redeem Store by clicking HERE.

While everyone can earn Pumpkoins as usual, you’ll notice we’ve changed some rules in how they can be redeemed in the “Week X” tabs:

  • Some items can only be redeemed by Premium Members
  • Of the items available to all, non-Premium Members are limited to 1 redemption, whereas Premium Members will be able to redeem up to the max limit we’ve set

Make sure to keep checking back each week to see what you can trade in your Pumpkoins for!

A Frightening Flat ZEE-Dayz!

While we announced our plans for a Greeting Card ZEE-Dayz well in advance, we didn’t want to leave this weekend out with nothing special going on!

ZEE-Dayz Bonus Details

From the period of Saturday, October 8th at 00:01 MHQ through Sunday, October 9th at 23:59 MHQ, enjoy double points on Flat Friends and Flat Objects!

Please note that Fancy Flats are excluded.

Friendly Reminders

Flat Friends/Objects are part of this month’s Clan War Requirements! To encourage more Clan War gameplay, we’ve moved requirements for specific munzee types, including those for Flat Friends/Objects, out of the Individual Requirements and into the Clan Requirements. We hope this allows your clan more flexibility in planning how to tackle each level!

We’ve also got quite a few events going on during this ZEE-Dayz! Don’t forget to check out the Munzee Calendar to see where you might like to deploy some munzees to get some capon points! While Greeting Cards are much easier to deploy due to their temporary nature, you may want to save them for the weekend of the 13th through the 16th as mentioned above. Then again, Greeting Cards are such a bargain, so you may decide to deploy both Greeting Cards AND Flats, if you can find the perfect spots on the map!

We hope you enjoy capping our flattened staff members this weekend!

Munzee on!
