More Reasons to Play #HuntTheMouse - The World’s Simplest S$1m Cash Hunt in Singapore ~ Huney'Z World

Hi Huneybees,

From 10 October to 9 November 2024, Singapore will host #HuntTheMouse, the world's simplest and largest million-dollar cash hunt. Now in its fifth year, #HuntTheMouse takes the prize pool to an unprecedented S$1,000,000 - up from S$100,000 last year - with a grand prize of S$500,000.

Adding to the excitement, the number of silver coins hidden around the island has tripled, rising from 100 in 2023 to 300 this year. Over 30 days, one S$500,000 gold coin and 300 silver coins valued at S$2,500 and S$500 will be progressively hidden across Singapore. Here’s the breakdown:

1 x S$500,000 gold coin
175 x S$2,500 silver coins
125 x S$500 silver coins

Participation in #HuntTheMouse is free and open to both Singapore residents and tourists. Hunters are encouraged to follow the game website for hints and use the real-time map to be the first to locate and claim their cash prizes.

“This year’s #HuntTheMouse marks a significant milestone and we are immensely proud of how the game has grown from what began at Nanyang Technological University with a S$800 prize for a single winner.” --- Mr Kenny Choy, CEO & co-founder of Sqkii, the gamification company behind #HuntTheMouse.

This year, the game launches four new power-up features on top of the existing Crystals to help hunters get ahead:

Coin Sonar – This power-up feature allows hunters to scan the area around them to zoom in to a more precise location for a silver coin, and provides instant feedback on whether the silver coin is within their selected range.
Metal Detector - In beta, hunters can activate this power-up feature when inside any silver coin circle to turn their phone into a metal detector. This feature scans the surrounding vicinity for one minute and provides visual feedback on the proximity to the coin as the hunter moves around.
Beacon – Any player can unlock this feature by completing specific brand actions. The Beacon can then be placed anywhere on the map, allowing all players within one kilometre radius to enjoy discounted power-up usage for ten minutes.
Pedometer – Promoting active lifestyle and healthy living, the pedometer tracks step count while on the hunt! Players will also be rewarded with Crystals for hitting specific step counts through daily missions.

Hints

Hunters can get visual hints on a real-time map on the game website to locate the coins. Hints for the gold coin will be posted daily on Sqkii’s Facebook, Instagram, and Telegram channels from day one. Circles on the in-game map, which indicate possible silver coin locations, will shrink between 15 to 60 minutes intervals. The real-time map will also eliminate improbable gold coin locations three times a day at 10am, 2pm, and 6pm daily.

Getting Ahead in the Game

Hunters can also perform brand actions by partners and participating merchants listed on the game website to earn Crystals and make use of the new power-up features to get ahead in the game. For those hunting for the gold coin, these Crystals can be used to obtain more gold coin hints and eliminate gold coin locations. As for the silver coins, the Crystals can also be used to shrink silver coin circles and activate the Coin Sonar or the Metal Detector to narrow down selected silver coin location to give them a competitive advantage over others.
