You know how you go on the Snapchat map to find out where your friends are at and instead you find blimp balloons?  What’s up with that?

Snapchat is well-known for its playful filters and games; people are finding blimp balloons on the Snapchat map and it seems to be another fun game, but it is rather confusing when you don’t know how to play along.

What are the Blimp Balloons on Snapchat? 

The blimp balloons are actually an annual Easter egg hunt game that Snapchat launched in 2019.

Usually, this game comes up on the app on the week of Easter and to play, you have to go outside and head to the location that the blimp balloons seem to be. 

In the area that the blimp balloons are, there are eggs which have been dropped by the blimp balloons, and they are visible with the back camera of Snapchat 🥚.

You can play this game with your friends and the winner is the person who collects most eggs and therefore gets a little easter trophy from Snapchat.

There is also a leader-board which shows who’s winning and how many eggs they have gathered.

The egg hunt game in 2020 – COVID inspired 

Because of COVID-19, Snapchat had to come up with a new version of the game, so that social distancing rules can be maintained while having fun.

In 2020, you can find the eggs tapping on the Snapchat camera. To avoid making the egg hunt boring, they have embedded mini-games; so, when you find one egg, you then have to play another game that shows up, such as bingo and guaranteed drops that determines how many eggs you will win.

Once again, Snapchat didn’t fail to entertain its users, even under the circumstances of a pandemic 👏.

  12. An impressive share, I simply given this onto a colleague who was doing a little analysis on this. And he actually bought me breakfast as a result of I found it for him.. smile. So let me reword that: Thnx for the deal with! But yeah Thnkx for spending the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love reading extra on this topic. If doable, as you become experience, would you mind updating your blog with more particulars? It’s extremely helpful for me. Large thumb up for this weblog publish!

  20. Can I just say what a relief to find someone who actually knows what theyre talking about on the internet. You definitely know how to bring an issue to light and make it important. More people need to read this and understand this side of the story. I cant believe youre not more popular because you definitely have the gift.

  24. Along with almost everything that appears to be building inside this subject material, a significant percentage of points of view happen to be quite refreshing. On the other hand, I beg your pardon, because I do not give credence to your entire idea, all be it refreshing none the less. It would seem to everyone that your commentary are not completely rationalized and in reality you are generally your self not even thoroughly confident of the assertion. In any case I did appreciate looking at it.

  27. Superb blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any recommendations? Many thanks!
