A Quick Update

Hey guys just wanted to keep you up to date with everything.

First off due to the huge amounts of people wanting to play Astro-Knights island Poptropica is experiencing a high amounts of traffic. The creators are working on the problem and say it will be back online in less then 24 hours. While this is disappointing we’re happy because it gives us time to write the guide. 😛

 

Secondly the winners to the PHB 1 million Monster Competition will be announced later this week and their special monster outfits will be sent to them. Although i myself must say this quickly, unfortunately i accidental lost 7 of the monster outfits and will only be able to give out 13 of them. I am very sorry but i guess it makes the costumes more rare. There’s always a positive to a negative. 😛

 

If you haven’t seen yet we have released our first issue of Poptropican’s 911 post. It’s filled with loads of cool stuff so check it out. You can access it from the post below or from the top bar.

  1. Cheerful Claw, I think rarer is a word…but I’m not too sure. It is kin of sad that you lost 7 outfits though. Oh well. I hope I win one!!

      1. This is such a goood website! I learned so many cheats here!
        and I beat Astro-knights island with this
        !

    1. You are right!
      the question is:

      How difficult is Astro-Knights for you?
      Here are the current results:

      It is tough but beatable-1998 votes
      It is too hard to beat-1097 votes
      It is easy-504 votes
      It is just right-355 votes

    1. i can only see a part of it but it says something like connectiong with friends and has an invite button. wonder what that means!

      1. Yup. We all thought that it was from AstroKnights, remember? Ah, good old days 🙂 Maybe we could invite people and have parties like Club Penguin 😀

      2. Oh, I sure hope so. Then we could celebrate Poptropica and PHB stuff actually on Poptropica!

    2. Cool!!!!!! I noticed that the backround is one of the sneak peaks the creators showed us! COOL! :mrgreen:

  2. I can’t wait for you guys to announce the winners for the monster costumes! I hope I win! (… though it’s not likely; I have really bad luck…)

      1. They draw it randomly, because the first 13 is unfair to the late-comers.

    1. Uh, oh. He could be using them to take over Poptropica!!! 😯 Hmm, maybe that could be in the next part of my story…

  3. ONO!!!! The Poptropica Creators fixed the ‘Play Astro-Knights free Glitch’! I hop I don’t have to go throught the whole thing again!! It was hard!!! 😦

  4. NEW POST ON CREATORS BLOG! Froot loops thing for the younger kids! First advertizment in awhile! But its always for the little kids!

      1. They probably mean for the islands to be for us. It took me 3 1/2 days straight to finish Astro-Knights!!!! I don’t know HOW a 6-year-old could do it!!!

    1. I tried before kinda fun but you’ll see what the prize you can have tacky costume like an octopus head and it is ALIVE!! 😥 all you have to do it tickle all eight tenticle and get the prize.

      Angry Leopard

      1. The octopus hat looks gross, but the glasses from the other feature is awesome

    2. It is ok for me because I have 3 accounts and 1 of them are like 7 years old because I was playing around with the ages! :mrgreen:

      1. Which Game? I have most certainlly have never seen this game. It looks like maybe alien golf?

      2. I saw this game when I first came to Poptropica, it was the first advertisement I think. I came to Poptropica when Shark Tooth Island had just been released.

  5. did you go to the astro-knight’s link again? it starts all over when you go on it. if you created a acount do it on poptropica.com

  6. if we see people in the multiplayer rooms with the costume will we be able to customize it?

    ST: I think so.

  7. There’s also been a change on the Poptropica homepage. The camera and t-shirt are different.

  8. Uhh I have 25 credits on my account? The closest options on the poll is NONE or 100-475 so next time can you add an extra option? 😛
    Also, Isn’t it a bit unfair how the little kids get so many activities?

    ST: Oops, sorry about that. I’ve fixed the poll now. 😳

  9. Those fish on the new post on the Creators’ Blog look awesome! I wonder what island they will be on?

  10. Look! I found something on the internet!
    Here:

    I was reading, and it said that was going to be characters before the real ones came out!

    ST: Cool; where did you read about it?

    1. I found it online on deviant art then It said: “I got this from Poptropica creators. It’s supposed to be them before the real ones” and I clicked the link. It led to some website that also said: “poptropicans before there REAL appearance.” It was just a wordpress blog though…

  11. Hey guys heres a guide to astro knights island!!!

    1 Go the village fountain, where there is a spaceship model.
    2 Jump up on the highest platform and crouch. You should pick up a gold coin.
    3 Then, go back to the museum next to the blimp. Inside, USE the gold coin to look around.
    4 Click on one of the books lying round the house and the guy will give you a library card.
    5 Go to the castle and go inside. Go to the library (first floor right). Collect the two books you need. (The Life of Mordred: A Cautionary Tale and The Mystical Weapons of Arturus)
    6 Then go to the section that it says on the library card and click on it. A stairway will appear and you go down.
    7 Collect the cheese and pull the lever. If you don’t pull the lever, you will have to go back down later to reveal the dungeon tunnel. (Once you do, the monk and guards won’t let you back in.) The small gate at the back should open.
    Exit and the monk should find you and tell you off.
    8 Leave the library and go to the king and queen and talk to them both. Accept their mission and receive the Coordinates page.
    9 Go to the final door (first floor left) and talk to the girl inside. Put the cheese on the ground and collect the robot mouse.
    10 Find the secret message on the table. Leave and head far right to the windmill area. Talk to the guy and get some manure.
    11 Enter the mill, climb into the loft and release the mill gear lock.
    12 Talk to the girl in the loft. She will give you a Cosmic Symbols password.
    13 Go to the fountain again and press the three symbols then press the center one. (You cannot enter these until you have the password card.)
    Enter, get the key and go out. Run back to the windmill climb it and push the windmill arms counter clockwise by jumping on them. It should open the roof.
    14 Go inside and power the machine with manure. Leave and go to the hay bales. Separate them and use the key to unlock the door. Go inside and scare the owl.
    15 Follow the owl out and release the mouse. The owl will eat it and follow you.
    16 Re-enter the hole in the ground, which is Mordred’s laboratory. Run left and keep running into the wall. It will break. Run all the way to the end and enter the passage.
    17 You will find yourself in the jail cell. The alien will self-destruct. Click the owl and then click the little green fuel rod.
    18 Exit all the way out and head right. You will see the hoverboard that you restored floating in the marsh. Hop on it and head right until you see the crashed spaceship.
    18 Take the green fuel rod and drag it to the broken pipe. Since there is not enough fuel to reach any of the coordinates on the Coordinates page, enter X-56, Y-52* and press Launch.
    * You will be wanting to know where these coordinates came from. First, grab the rope on the wheel mill in the swamp. (You may have already grabbed it.) Next, head right until you reach the castle. Climb up until you see the crossbow. Attach the rope to an arrow and shoot roughly to the upper left. It might take several times, but eventually it will stick in the door of the princess’s room. Walk on the rope and enter the princess’s room. Once in the princess’s room, pick up the Princess’s Note. Once you have this, exit her room and drop down to the ground, heading left. Go back to the Mordred exhibit and search under his bed. You will find the Missing Page from Mordred’s Journal. At the very bottom of this page are the coordinates 56, 52.

    Pewter Moon

    ——————————————————————————–

    Once your spaceship crashes, head right, past the BUILD YOUR OWN SPACESHIP stand and enter the first building you come to. Talk to the guy to the left. Then, leave and head to the left.
    Talk to the guy about the Binary Bard.
    Continue to the left and stop at the BUILD YOUR OWN SPACESHIP stand that you passed earlier. Make a spaceship and leave, staying in orbit long enough to fully charge your shields.
    Space, above Pewter Moon

    ——————————————————————————–

    You have some choices now. You can go to the jungle planet at 15,15, the fire planet at 83,20, or the ice planet at 83,73. This walkthrough will go in order from personal belief of easiest to hardest.
    Head up and to the left until the tracker at the bottom says 15,15. Enter the planet.
    Jungle Planet

    ——————————————————————————–

    Start by dropping down to the floor. Head to the right and pick up the Laser Lance.
    Using the flowers to your left, bounce back up to the platform where your spaceship is.
    Wait until you see the swing to the right. Jump on it. Jump on the swing next to that, and the swing next to that. If you fall, use the flowers to get back up. When you are on the third and final swing, jump on the platform to the right and continue right.
    Talk to the knight and jump up to the cage he was talking about. Let the unicorn out.
    Defeat the Phoenix by avoiding the bird missiles and shooting at the bees when they come into range. When the Phoenix gets near you, click and hold to build up energy in the Laser Lance. Shoot at the Phoenix in this manner until you defeat it.
    You will appear in the spaceship. Click launch.
    Space

    ——————————————————————————–

    Head down and to the right until you see a message that says “Space Sharks Ahead”
    Find a space shark and get it to follow you. Head directly up until you see a message that says “Approaching Black Hole”. The black hole is at X-85 Y-47. Once you see the black hole, veer and go around it. The space shark will be sucked in.
    Deal with the other two space sharks in this same manner and land on the ice planet.
    Ice Planet

    ——————————————————————————–

    Jump on the ice and jump to the right, being careful not to land in the water or get hit by fish. Continue right. (There are seven icebergs that you have to jump on.)
    Talk to the knight and get the Force Shield from him.
    This is by far the easiest boss to defeat- just bounce his own projectiles back at the yellow lights on his body. (Only the snowballs will work)
    Once you defeat it, you will appear back in the spaceship. Press launch.
    Space

    ——————————————————————————–

    Head up and around the black hole. Head for 83, 20- the final planet we have to go to.
    Fire Planet

    ——————————————————————————–

    Jump on the platform to your right- you may have to wait until it sinks down. Repeat this process until you get to the fourth platform. Wait until the platform to your right sinks down, then jump over it and hopefully land on the last platform. If you miss, just go back to the start and try again. (* Alternately, jump to the 5th platform, and you can easily jump to the 6th when they are both moving downward.)
    Once you land successfully on the last platform, wait until it gets to its highest point and enter the volcano.
    You will quickly notice that there is a stream of hot air that pushes you back. However, there is a break of 3 or 4 seconds when you can run. Just follow the passageway and duck into the nearest nook before it blows again.
    Eventually, you will drop into a place where there is no current. There is a guardian, though. Just wait until it rolls into a ball heading towards you and jump over it. It might take a few tries.
    Talk to the knight and get the Ice Arrow.
    Continue to the left.
    Immediately jump on the chain in front of you and climb up. Swing to the next chain, and continue left until you are behind the dragon.
    Avoid the spikey mace tail thing, and jump up to the lever. Pull the lever, jump forward, and shoot the arrow into the dragon’s mouth. Repeat two more times.
    You will appear in your spaceship. Press Launch.
    Space

    ——————————————————————————–

    According to the knights, there is an asteroid with a key on it. So your first course of action would be to search all over for a really big asteroid. But, since you are using this walkthrough, you can cheat. Just head for X- 11, Y-83.
    Try to avoid the asteroids and the ferocious alien shooters- they will wear down your shield.
    Giant Asteroid

    ——————————————————————————–

    Make your way up to the key. Pull it out, since you are The Chosen One, and enter the portal that appears.
    Mordred’s castle

    ——————————————————————————–

    Drop down to the ground and talk to the princess. Give her the Laser Lance, the Force Shield, and the Ice Arrow.
    Oh no! It wasn’t the princess after all! Solve the puzzle on the door and follow him through.
    The Final Battle

    ——————————————————————————–

    As Merlin, dodge the flying projectile that Binary Bard (Mordred) shoots at you. Go to the ground under him and pick up one of his bombs. Take it above the Bard’s control chamber (below the glowing green orb) and drop it as the bomb explodes. Do this TWICE. (Merlin gets zapped.)
    Dodge the red zap blast and run right. *Duck down low* to avoid the spinning arms, and climb UP on the robot to reach the top. Jump to the Princess’s pedestal and dodge any zaps.
    Jump to one of the overhead chandeliers as Mordred rolls right beneath you. When he tries to zap you, it brings the chandelier crashing down. When you do the same with a chandelier on the other side, the orb is knocked loose and the Princess is freed. With the Binary Bard defeated, you are transported home to receive a knighthood

  12. astro knights island is now open to everyone! but i had already beaten it with the cheat st found

  13. I can’t finish A-K island!! 😦 😥 I got the cheat, and used it for part of the island, then I had to log off for some reason. Then, when Astro Knights came out today, I was on main street. i went to the swamp where the UFO was to get me to the pewter moon to get me to other planets, but the UFO isn’t there! And I was on the Ice Planet where I left off last time! Help!

    ST: That’s because your UFO already crashed on Pewter Moon. Your rocket should be on top of the Castle of Arturus; use it to get back into space! 😉

    1. yeah the same EXACT thing happened to me! and my character looked awesome, he had like a mix of the buyable costumes and then binary bard’s face and eye. now i think i might just create a NEW account and do all the islands OVER AGAIN! it really stinks. although i should be able to finnish them in about a week. 🙂

      1. OK good idea, lazy lizard. i think that there should be a Pirate Island. The pirates have stolen the town’s treasure, and you must get it back from the eivl pirates, especially from their captain, Captain Coins. Once you bring the treasure back to the town, you get ur medallion!!

    2. Um, I was just thinking…did you get to the Pewter Moon? Because, if you did, Excalibur would have wrecked there, and you would get your new spaceship. When you return to the main planet Poptropica, your spaceship is parked on the roof of the castle. Is that what happened? Just a thought. :mrgreen:

    3. The same thing happened for me. My ship was on top of the castle(weird right!) So look on top of the castle 🙂

      1. I finished Astro-Knights already, but I didn’t know how to get back to space! But then I read your comment and decided to see if my rocket ship was on top of the castle like your ship. It was! 🙂
        Now I can wander into Poptropica space… 🙂

  14. Yay! Your header’s back an AK is out! You may or may not know me but I have visited your site before

  15. I was wondering when the guide is coming out? Was it last weekend( the 12-14), or the next weekend(19-21)? Well I live in the United States, so people in other countries might be different.

  16. the next island should be candy island, and one day a meateaor struck and wiped out all the candy. You go on a quest to get back the candy and make the people happy!

    1. maybe not a meteor. maybe someone called Princess Candy should steal all the candy and use it to decorate her castle. and you have to try to pretend to be one of her guards so you can get through the castle (and you could get it from someone who used to be a guard but didnt need the suit anymore) and sneak off with all the candy without Princess Candy noticing

      1. It’s coming out this Summer, and they ALWAYS wait until it’s a week or two before the season ends, so it should come out in…September. Great.

      2. Reality TV island will rock! But I also will have to do homework too, and so I’ll have to wait too. I wish kids had NO HOMEWORK! Sorry if this is hard to understand, I mixed words up a little.

    1. I beat AK Isand too!!!! It was very hard, but now it’s my7 favorite island. Also, the Crystal city or whatever has the coordinates 11, 82 😀

  17. I was thinking…are the face spots of the aliens on the Pewter Moon the same as the ones that were supposed to be with Monster Carnival? I tried to customize them, and they didn’t really show up all, and I remember someone saying that about the spots from Monster Carnival. Thoughts?

  18. GLITCH ALERT!

    Buy Samurai outfit, put on its sword, hold space and try to walk or run. You will not walk on floor, you will slide. Same in water.

  19. :o! YOU LOST THE COSTUMES?!?!??!?!!!!! AHHHHHH! THE WORLD IS IN TROUBLE AS WE KNOW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! D;

    ST: Don’t worry, we’ve still got most of them.

  20. Wow, do you know what I’ve just noticed?

    Like GoldenStar said, 13 (The number of monster outfits PHB still has) is unlucky, and 7 (The number of monster outfits PHB lost) is lucky! Strange coincidence…

  21. how about dogouhnut island. the citizens of dogouhnut island had thier dogouhnuts lost for 67 years thier dogouhnuts have dissapird. the chef that knows the way to make dogouhnuts but he’s kinapped.it’s your job is to find the chef. 5\12\2009

    Cya,

  25. New Post A Day in the Life of the Bard
    The Space Sharks are among my strongest but most stupid creations. They are a little thick headed, so I had to shoot at all three of them just so I could get their attention. We had quite a lovely space stroll until one of them got carried away and took a bite out of my space ship. What a mechanical mess!
