Are you wondering why the Poptropica map doesn’t have more islands than it does? If you’re an older player, you may recall a time when Poptropica had wayyy more islands on the map—more than 40, even! Where did they all go, and how can you play them again?
Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Lucky Fish.Enjoy!
Hey Poptropicans! I’m back here on the PHB with a new community art collab for you all. This collaboration is themed around the genies of Arabian Nights Island, where you get to draw your Poptropican (or anyone) as a genie! Feel free to give your genie a name, and even some lore. All of the submissions will be featured on a collage to be revealed…
And to add to the fun, at the end I will also announce the following awards: Most Creative Genie, Scariest Genie, and Cutest Genie. 🏆
Puffed Up: The smoke gets in your eyes.
How to Participate 🧞♂️
🧞♂️ Create or draw a genie of your choice. This can be a genie of your Poptropican, yourself, or anyone! Please save your art as a ✨png file with a transparent background✨; doing this makes it easier for me to add your piece to the collage. Besides drawing, you can also create a genie costume in Poptropica and share a screenshot, ideally with a solid color background.
⬆️ Upload your picture to the internet and share it with me (max 3 images). Post your art to a website that supports transparent images such as Imgur, then share the link in the comments of this post, or by messaging my Instagram @poptropicafanblog1.
🗓️ Submissions will close on July 21 (Tue) at 11:59pm EST, with the finished collage to be revealed on the PHB on July 26 (Sun) to celebrate the PHB’s 18th birthday! 🥳
I can’t wait to see all of the finished pieces! Thank you for reading, and have an excellent start to your summer!

The plot thickens… but it’ll be a while before we find out more, as its artist RainbowBrush (happy birthday to her, btw! 🎉) will be taking a hiatus from releasing more pages until they’re made and ready to show. When that happens, you can continue to follow along on the adventure on Instagram and Reddit.

Hey Poptropicans! How many of you picked up a copy of Poptropica: The Official Guide back in the day? If you did, you may remember that Poptropica’s first-ever print book came with a full-color poster!
Here’s mine pictured below, partially desaturated from sunlight, after spending some time framed on my wall. 🌞
Released in 2011 attached to the guidebook, the poster features the Poptropica map as it appeared at the time, along with a smattering of island medallions and characters, from iconic favorites like Dr. Hare and Binary Bard to generic NPCs exhibiting various fun poses.
This reminiscing is inspired by a recent Reddit post by pizza1551, who shared their (in their words) “cooked poster” in response to another user’s nostalgic request. What a fun little time capsule! ✨
Poptropica has since released plenty of other posters, which you can find in our various Island Guides for those islands that have them, but this is the only one they’ve ever printed for us. The rest are digital downloads, including some designed to be printed on our own. 🖨️

RainbowBrush adds, “Page 10 is one of my favorite pages because of the map. It was fun drawing that and adding the textures for it.”
