From 14 August to 25 September 2025, the streets and heartlands of Singapore turn into one big game board, as Sqkii partners with DBS to celebrate Singapore’s 60 years of nation building and our unique heartlands.
This year, #HuntTheMouse DBS SG60 hides 200 silver DBS Heartland game coins, each worth S$600, across various neighbourhoods. That’s a S$120,000 prize pool, and anyone can join in for free.
Getting started
- When: 14 August 2025 (10:00AM) to 25 September 2025 (23:59PM)
- Where: Heartland locations all across Singapore
- What you need: A smartphone with GPS enabled, an internet connection, and access to the game website or app
The first person to physically find each hidden coin wins its cash value.

New SG60 features
- Places of Interest: When your GPS is on, you’ll see bite-sized historical, cultural, or future-facing facts about nearby spots — turning your hunt into a mini heritage tour.
- Hunting Stops: Special locations at selected bus stops and heartland zones:
- Perform simple in-game actions (e.g. tickle Sqkii & Friends) to earn Crystals and power-ups.
- DBS Hunting Stops give enhanced rewards, even when you’re not actively chasing coins.
Power-ups
Use Crystals earned at Hunting Stops to activate power-ups:
