Is Counterfeit Island… counterfeit? No, it’s now out to the public – for real, and now best of all, for FREE! But wait, it IS called Counterfeit for a reason…
Binary Bard posted the following on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog (Binary Bard?! Master Mime deserves the honors for this one!):
Counterfeit Island is now online!

The binary numbers translate to ”Beware the Black Widow!” That’s the only spoiler we’ll give here – but if you want more, check out Super De Struguri‘s CI guide by clicking here.
Here are some amazing snapshots from Counterfeit Island! Maybe you can pick up a clue or two from this:
Personally, we think the night-time part was one of the most thrilling and exciting moments. And the inter-island travel to Early Poptropica was awesome! =)
Good luck, and may the Force be with you! xD

Master Mime should have posted it since hes from the island
Black widow should have been an author.
yeah but everyone would know she would be the villain and it spoils it for everyone who hasn’t played it.
Well, Binary Bard was the villain on Astro-Knights Island… and he posted the Counterfeit Island news on the PCB.
So is the Spy 1 and Dr.Hare and Binary Bard
I’m just glad they finally made the villain female. And yes, that would have spoiled the fun ^^
Ci is so much fun!
Coolio!
There’s only one tip I’ll tell you: Don’t trust anyone. Good luck, you’re going to love it!
That`s a good tip. I just hate it that the person you trusted the MOST was it. Why person, why?! 😥
Well, that happened in Spy Island anyway… Besides, this isn’t real life; there’s only one way to go… I have to say that as much as I love this island (it’s first on my list; Nabooti’s second), I found it slightly predictable…
I don’t think you’re really right Neat Whale. Because you could trust somone like the curator in the meseum. But don’t trust MOST of the people is a good tip. I finished this island today.
Spoiler! i forgot that it was even out which is totally not me ( i finished last night)
it was quite fun but it was too easy. i finished in 4 hours…
what was the boy with the balloon all about?
You’re right Icy Bug, they might have something about that in Reality TV Island…..if that ever comes out. I don’t think the Creators would just leave us hanging there without any solution ever, or they might as well never had balloon boy in the first place.
i think you’re right cool biker i think something will happen like balloon boy in RTV island but how come you can’t save balloon boy at Counterfeit island??????? that REALLY sad!! :,(
Remember the real life balloon boy thing? Maybe the got it from that.
Balloon Boy was to distract the gamer.
But it’s so mean to get him that way… It’s almost like in Shark Tooth Island.
Golden Hawk – Maybe, but Balloon Boy was just something to put on the news. As Happy Horse suggested above, the idea could have been from the real life Balloon Boy story.
Because it appeared on the Web Browser Cafe’s TV, the tourist was willing to stop trying to beat the high score and talk to you. 😉
yeah its sad but its funny cus you can see him in the sky when you’re on the scooter! XD
I wish we could customize the clown outfit, but it wouldn’t be fair for the people who bought it in the store. *sniff*
i finished the island
guys GUYS!!!!! i know how to costumize as the black widow!!!!! (you must have internet explorer 8 to do this.)
1. make sure you passed the whole thing of counterfeit island 2.when you get to her private gallery go by the door (not outside) 3.on internet explorer 8 go right where the print button is and click on “page” and click on zoom and put 400% 4.click on the right-left bar on the bottom and click it all the way to the left 5.click on costumize and pick anything you want from her.
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU!!!!!!!
PHB is awesome!
Totally awesome! Best one yet! I ‘m doing it right now! Personal favorite line: I don’t like anyone in this room! Well, except me. I like me.
Yeah thats the funniest bit! lol!! 😀 and Hijuyo, how do you translate the binary bards numbers? I don’t get it!
Hijuyo: You can search for binary translators all over the internet – there’s plenty that will help you. 😉
Ok, thanks! 😛
PHB, you ROCK!
*rocks with guitar and breaks string* oops! *runs off stage embarrased* YOU STILL ROCK!
Three words. Greatest. Island. Ever. IT ROCKED! You actually had to go to another island to solve the mystery!!! This was the best island ever!!!
I know! That was my favorite part. But I’m not sure which one I liked better, this island or Astro Knights.
Counterfeit, obiesly! 🙄
Dear Scary Tomatoe and all you guys,
I beat the whole Island and got 200 credits on Early Access Period!
If you get the tunnel tickets & take them to the guy,your poptropican will say,”They might belong to HER but SHE’S hypnotized by that game right now.” COMPLETELY CRAZY!!! The creators must change that! 😕
All I’ve got to say about Counterfeit Island is:
The Black Widow is CREEPY! (But clever, how she manages to gain all your trust by being an investigator lady….)
If only the creators would make an island where you could rescue poor Balloon Boy……
And, lastly, I sort of like how Counterfeit Island is French-themed, sort of.
Hey Hijuyo where was the common room again *thinking*
oh it was the moldy baguette inn
