Find the Coins at SG's Latest Instagrammable
SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 26 June 2025 - From 20 June to 13 July 2025, Singapore Science Park 1 is the new hunting ground for #HuntTheMouse - LyndenWoods Edition (the 'Edition').
#HuntTheMouse - LyndenWoods Edition
In this second iteration of #HuntTheMouse thematic pop-up hunt (the 'hunt' or 'game'), 64 game coins worth 50 million of STAR$® ('Credits'), equivalent to S$50,000 in value, which can be used to pay or offset purchases at CapitaLand malls, will be hidden in Singapore Science Park 1. The hunting ground is conveniently located right outside Kent Ridge MRT Station on the Circle Line.
Game coins will be hidden in easy-to-access public areas, including Geneo's community spaces such as The Canopy and The Seed, and around the LyndenWoods condominium showroom. The first player or team to find the game coin gets to redeem Credits of corresponding value. There are four LyndenWoods Coins and sixty Science Park Coins, worth S$5,000 and S$500 of Credits respectively.
It is recommended that players follow the hints released on Sqkii's social media such as Instagram and Facebook, and the real-time map on the game website to locate these hidden game coins and exchange them for Credits.
One LyndenWoods Coin, in wood and slightly bigger than the size of a Singapore 20 cents coin, will be hidden every Saturday for four weeks from 21 June to 12 July 2025. Once it is hidden, five free hints will be released in rapid-fire mode every hour from 14:00hr (SGT) onwards. There will also be one free tip every weekday on Sqkii social media channels (Facebook and Instagram) to help players prepare for the LyndenWoods Coin drop on Saturdays.
Sixty Science Park Coins, identifiable by their silver colour, will be released progressively over the game period.
There are power-ups to help players get ahead in their hunt. To use these power-ups, players simply have to complete a mission to earn Crystals for the activation of these power-ups:
Circle Shrink – Use this power-up to shrink Science Park Coin circles to narrow down selected coin location.
Coin Sonar – This power-up allows players to scan the area around them to zoom in to a more precise location for a Science Park Coin. There are three scan ranges: 25m, 50m, or 100m, each requiring different numbers of Crystals. Each scan gives the player instant feedback on whether the silver coin is within their selected range.
Metal Detector – Players can activate this power-up when inside any Science Park Coin circle to turn their phone into a metal detector in search of the coin. It scans the surrounding vicinity for one minute and provides visual feedback on the proximity to the coin as the player moves around.
'#HuntTheMouse brings people and places together,' shares Mr. Kenny Choy, CEO & co-founder of Sqkii, the gamification company behind #HuntTheMouse. 'In this second thematic hunt, we hope to share and bring our fans, friends and family to the rejuvenated Singapore Science Park 1, which is now buzzing with excitement through its instagrammable designs, unique space planning and creative placemaking initiatives.'

TikTok's #SkinnyTok rebranded eating disorders dangerously fast
Social media influencers mask their harmful content with seemingly-innocuous healthy buzzwords to reach a broader audience #SKINNYTOK is dead. Or at least that's what TikTok wants you to believe after its recent ban of the hashtag promoting an extreme thin ideal. That might have appeased regulators, but it shouldn't satisfy parents of teens on the app. An army of influencers is keeping the trend alive, putting vulnerable young people in harm's way. Today's social media landscape makes it all too easy for creators to repackage and disguise disordered eating as a 'healthy' part of everyday life. That lifestyle then gets monetised on various platforms — via habit trackers, group chats and 30-day aspirational challenges — and shared with a much broader audience. The rise of #SkinnyTok is in many ways a rehashing of the pro-eating disorder content of the past. In the mid 1990s it was Kate Moss and 'heroin chic.' Then came the Tumblr posts in the early aughts praising 'Ana' and 'Mia,' fictional characters that stood for anorexia and bulimia. Now, it's 23-year-old influencer Liv Schmidt telling her followers to 'eat wise, drop a size.' Schmidt, a prominent # SkinnyTok influencer who is often credited with lopping the 'y' off of 'skinny' and replacing it with an 'i,' is the founder of the members-only group 'Skinni Société.' In September, she was banned from TikTok amid scrutiny by the Wall Street Journal. The fact that she continues to make headlines some nine months later drives home the perpetual game of whack-a-mole that regulators are playing with problematic content. After her TikTok ban, Schmidt simply moved her audience over to Instagram, where her followers have grown from 67,000 to more than 320,000. Until recently, she was charging people US$20 (RM94) per month for a 'motivational' group chat, but when The Cut found at least a dozen of those users were in high school, Meta Platforms Inc demonetised her profile in May. And yet her Instagram account still exists and she's actively posting to her YouTube channel. A video titled 'How to Create a Skinni Body on a Budget' raked in nearly 50,000 views within a week, a particularly disturbing level of engagement considering she's encouraging her viewers to consume fewer than 1,000 calories a day — far less than what health officials recommend for a nutrient-dense meal. In her Instagram bio, Schmidt links to a Google LLC application where anyone can apply to her Skinni Société. While membership previously cost just US$20 per month, screenshots posted on social media suggest this latest iteration could run about US$2,900 per month — a gulf that proves her schtick is a complete black box. Regardless of price point, she continues to use public platforms to lure people into private spaces where conversations promoting disordered eating can flourish unchecked — all while profiting from them. Bloomberg Opinion made several attempts to reach out to Schmidt for comment, but she did not respond. This sort of content is causing real harm. National Alliance for Eating Disorders, founder and CEO Johanna Kandel said the uptick in callers mentioning #SkinnyTok to her organisation's hotline began last winter. And despite social media companies' efforts to blunt the reach of the trend, as many as one in five calls fielded by the nonprofit in recent weeks have referenced the hashtag. Some of those callers had past struggles with an eating disorder that was restarted by the hashtag, while others started following #SkinnyTok to 'better themselves' or 'get healthy' only to be pulled into a precarious mental space, Kandel says. The bombardment of images of a skinny ideal can have even broader harms. Although this type of content has always lurked in the dark corners of the internet, people had to actively seek it out. Now, the algorithm delivers it on a platter. That's being served in insidious ways. While Schmidt's rhetoric may leave little to the imagination, other influencers frame their content more subliminally. They encourage a disciplined lifestyle that blurs the lines of health consciousness and restrictive eating, which makes it all the more difficult to detect: Walk 15,000 steps a day, drink tea, nourish the body — these are things that might not raise alarm bells if a parent were to find them on their kid's social feeds. Sure, the TikTok trends that do raise alarm bells — remember 'legging legs'? — are quick to get shut down. But what about something as seemingly innocuous as the popular 'what I eat in a day' videos? How are social media companies expected to police troubling content that's cloaked in euphemisms like 'wellness' and 'self-care'? It's a question that weighs on wellness and lifestyle creators who are trying their best to combat the negative content out there. When speaking with Kate Glavan, a 26-year-old influencer, it's clear why she has been vocal about her experience with disordered eating: 'I don't know a single woman that hasn't struggled with some sort of body image or food issue,' she said. 'The only thing that snapped me out of my eating disorder was learning how it was destroying my health. I had a doctor look at my blood work and tell me I had the bone density of a 70-year-old woman at the of age 17.' Whether that would work on today's 17-year-olds is up for debate. 'A lot of younger Gen Zers now believe that everything is rigged — schools, doctors, the government. That paranoia has created a distrust of expertise itself,' Glavan explained. 'They think the whole medical system is corrupt, so they turn to influencers instead — which is incredibly dangerous.' How dangerous? University of Toronto assistant professor Amanda Raffoul, who studies eating disorders, says there's 'a pretty solid body of evidence that the more young people in particular spent time online and on social media, the more likely they are to have poor body image, have negative thoughts about their appearance and to be engaging in harmful eating-related behaviours.' For example, a 2023 review of 50 studies found that social media leads to peer comparisons and internalisation of a 'thin' ideal, which together contribute to body image anxiety, poor mental health and for some, disordered eating. That effect is exacerbated when someone has certain risk factors — they are female or have a high body mass index (BMI), for example — and are exposed to content that encourages eating disorders. The danger is most acute in adolescent girls. That skinny ideal can elicit strong emotions and feelings of inadequacy at a time when they don't yet have the tools to separate reality from fiction. But researchers also see a worrisome trend in adolescent boys who have been drawn in by fitfluencers pushing obsessive muscle training, unproven supplements and restrictive diets. After a 2021 Wall Street Journal investigation revealed Meta was fully aware of Instagram's potential to pull teen girls into a body image spiral, social media companies have offered some guardrails around problematic content. Kandel says when her nonprofit starts to hear multiple callers mentioning specific body image-related hashtags, it notifies companies, which typically are quick to shut them down. While helpful, it also feels like the companies are doing the bare minimum to protect kids. Although eating disorder researchers can glean insights from individual social feeds, they still can't get their hands on the internal data that could help them identify who is most at risk of harm and craft better safeguards. For adolescents, the most powerful solution would be to step away from social media. A research by American Psychological Association shows that spending less time scrolling can improve body image in struggling teens and young adults. But if that's not realistic, parents and teachers could help them think more critically about what they're seeing online — and how influencers like Schmidt make money by chipping away at their self-esteem. — Bloomberg This column does not ecessarily reflect the opinion of the editorial board or Bloomberg LP and its owners.

Drake shares receipts of RM34.2mil in gambling losses
Drake took to social media Wednesday night to share the receipts of all the money he's lost from gambling on the crypto betting site Stake, which he's been a partner of for the last three years. Photo: TNS Money apparently ain't a thing for Drake as the hip-hop superstar revealed he lost more than US$8mil (RM34.2mil) in a single month, all thanks to sports betting. The rapper took to social media Wednesday night to share the receipts of all the money he's lost from gambling on the crypto betting site Stake, which he's been a partner of for the last three years. 'Gotta share the other side of gambling…' he wrote on his Instagram story alongside a screenshot of his losses. According to his post, Drake placed nearly US$125mil in bets over the past month, resulting in a loss of US$8.2mil. While he didn't specify which specific wagers led to his financial misfortune, the NBA and NHL playoffs have both been in full swing in the last four weeks. In another Instagram post, the 38-year-old revealed an US$800,000 bet on Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Thursday. With the Oklahoma City Thunder leading the series over the Indiana Pacers, Drake placed US$600,000 on an OKC win and another US$200,000 on them winning by a 6-10 point margin. The Pacers ended up winning handily, 108-91. Last month, the rapper bet US$1.25mil on the Toronto Maple Leafs to win Round 2, Game 7 of the NHL playoffs and advance to the Eastern Conference Final — only for his hometown hockey team to miss the mark to the Florida Panthers. According to Forbes, Drake has an estimated net worth of US$49mil, though that figure was last reported in 2020. It's believed his current net worth is closer to US$250mil. – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service

Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise reunite at 'F1' premiere in London
Brad Pitt (left) and Tom Cruise last worked together in the 1994 film 'Interview With A Vampire'. Photo: AP No, these are not Louis and Lestat out to have another go at each other's throats, but fans of Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise were nonetheless delighted after the A-listers met at the London premiere of the former's film F1 , marking their first public reunion in over two decades. The reunion happened after the Mission: Impossible star made a surprise appearance at the movie premiere held at Leicester Square on Monday, June 23. Cruise and Pitt greeted each other with a tight hug before posing for photos side by side. 'Great night at the movies with my friends! You guys crushed it!' Cruise said on his Instagram page on Tuesday, June 24, showing a snap of them from the event. The F1 movie is co-produced by Pitt, seven-time F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton, Apple Studios and Jerry Bruckheimer, the filmmaker behind Cruise's Top Gun Maverick. It also stars Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Kim Bodnia, and Javier Bardem, and was shot during actual Grand Prix weekends as the team competes against the titans of the sport. Dubbed 'the greatest that never was,' Pitt plays Sonny Hayes, Formula 1's most promising phenom of the 1990s until an accident on the track nearly ended his career. Thirty years later, he's a nomadic racer-for-hire when he's approached by his former teammate Ruben Cervantes (Bardem), owner of a struggling F1 team that is on the verge of collapse. Ruben convinces Sonny to come back to the race tracks for one last shot at saving the team and being the best in the world. He'll drive alongside Joshua Pearce (Idris), the team's hotshot rookie, intent on setting his own pace. But as the engines roar, Sonny's past catches up with him and he finds that in Formula 1, your teammate is your fiercest competition — and the road to redemption is not something you can travel alone. Cruise and Pitt last worked together in the 1994 film Interview With A Vampire where they respectively portrayed the roles of vampires Lestat and Louis. The Hollywood actors have yet to reunite on screen, but they had a public encounter in September 2001 during the America: A Tribute To Heroes benefit concert. Pitt earlier this month said he is open to working again on a project with Cruise but on one condition. 'I'm not gonna hang my ass off airplanes and s**t like that,' he said, referring to a scene from Cruise's Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning. 'So… when he does something again that's on the ground.' Cruise and Pitt, as disclosed by film director Joseph Kosinski, were supposed to reunite in the filmmaker's version of the racing drama Ford v Ferrari. However, the project was axed after the proposed budget was not approved. – Philippine Daily Inquirer/Asia News Network
