Singapore’s daily commute is about to get a little more happening. From 1st to 26th June 2026, commuters using SimplyGo EZ-Link and SimplyGo Concession cards can take part in the new SimplyGo Adventure Quest, an in-app game where taking public transport and making everyday payments can earn you rewards, cashback, and limited edition collectibles.
Done in collaboration with SimplyGo and the locally loved Mr. Merlion & Friends characters, the campaign turns bus and train rides into a digital board game complete with trivia questions, QR stamp hunts, and cute merch redemptions.
Think of it like a mini treasure hunt built into your daily transport routine. Players move along a digital game board by completing simple tasks like:
Every action earns you “steps” in the game, which unlock rewards as you progress.

The game officially starts on 1st June 2026, but pre-registration opens earlier on 18th May 2026.
Commuters who sign up during the Early Bird period from 18th to 24th May 2026 can receive bonus rewards!

There’s also a lucky draw featuring Mr. Merlion plushies with interchangeable velcro patches. Cute enough that some Singaporeans will probably speedrun their MRT rides for this one, not gonna lie.

Honestly, quite solid if you’re looking for school holiday activities that don’t require spending extra money. Parents with transport-obsessed kids, this one probably got potential.
From 15th June to 5th July 2026, there’ll also be a public pop-up event at Bugis+ Level 2 Atrium.
Stickers, coasters, and magnets.

Visitors can:
The pop-up will run daily from 11am to 10pm.
Singaporeans already spend enough time tapping in and out of gantries every day, so this feels like a pretty harmless way to squeeze some extra fun out of the routine. The combination of cashback, collectible merch, and real-world station hunts makes it feel a bit like Pokémon GO meets MRT life.
Whether you’re in it for the plushies, vouchers, or just an excuse to jalan around Singapore during the June holidays, the SimplyGo Adventure Quest might make your usual commute slightly less sian.
