I’ve seen many of you in the comments wondering about how the Creators will fit all the other new islands on a teeny tiny map. And they have heard you! In this new post, it tells you how they pumped up the map and they also tell you of the new island they are working on and are giving us a sneak peek! Before you run off, read this:
Pump up the map
Since we’ve added so many new Islands to Poptropica recently, you may have noticed the map screen has gotten a little too full. Well, no more! We’ve made a brand-new map. And it has plenty of room for even more Islands.
In fact, if you go to the map now, you’ll be able to see the next Island we’re working on — along with a sneak preview that’s open to everybody! Check it out!
SHARK BOY
Let me explain how the map works. When you leave the island, you get to control the blimp as it flies around the Poptropica map. as you pass over each island, it shows you the difficulty rank: Easy, medium, or hard. I’ll post the ranks later, because I’m sure you want to know what the new island is. If you really want to know it’s:
GREAT PUMPKIN ISLAND!
I’m sure you’re wondering WHAT THE HECK? or if I’m kidding, but i kid you not. The new island they’re working on is Great Pumpkin Island. It’s animated like Big Nate. When you get there you see a couple of signs and you also see Linus. You can talk with him about the Great Pumpkin. I wonder how this quest will turn out…. I just wonder what pumpkins, mansions, SUV’s, and driving dogs have to do with each other. Are they even on the same island? Anyway… before I forget, here are the ranks the Creators say the islands are. Bye guys! 😀
Early Poptropica: Easy
Shark Tooth: Easy
Time Tangled: Medium
24 Carrot: Medium
Super Power: Medium
Spy: Hard (This should be medium)
Nabooti: Medium
Big Nate: Easy
Astro Knights: Hard
Counterfeit: Medium
Reality TV: Medium
Mythology: Hard
Skullduggery: Hard
Steamworks: Hard
Great Pumpkin: Easy (for now)
Here’s a video by Loud Shark showing us the new map and the sneak peek of the new island:
On another note, school is starting soon for me, so I won’t be able to post as much. When school starts, I’ll only be available on Fridays. So, at all the other authors here, please save the Friday posts for me. 😀 K, thanks.

Awesome Post 😀
The map icon in the top bar in Poptropica has also been updated. It no longer has the “Show the Poptropica Map” action on the left side. 😉
I hated CI xD I just saw no good plot in it. I love Shark Tooth tho.. :3
Maybe the dog is Snoopy! LOL This is gonna be good.
im soooooooo happy right now 😀 the next island is gonna include the peanuts?!?!!?!? yayy i luv the poptropica creators….. and the peanuts!! 😀 🙂 8)
LOL GREAT PUMPKIN ISLAND where’d that come from?
Shaggy: I have no idea! XD. It better be good. 😛
There’s a Charlie Brown special called “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown”.
Kind of a Halloween-y episode. 😛
Well, Halloween is coming up, maybe the creators needed a little bit more money from ads, to make Haunted House 2! =3.
Shaggy: Lol, nice.
From a Charlie Brown movie
great pumpkin island? Aww…those that mean I can’t have horror island on my list anymore. Now I have to play with pumpkins. What a ripoff.
I think Balloon Boy Will land in an upcoming island. And when I predicted the next themed island would be virtual, I was right! I also predicted Steamworks’ theme would be Structure.
CI and myth island were easy 4 me but SPY ws really really hard
I saw Counterfiet as Medium.
Shaggy: Hmm. They must have changed it then…
wow they really did a charlie brown island, hopefully it won’t be like big nate island. or basically you run around the island doing halloween party set up
Sounds interesting 😀
Great Pumpkin island? You gotta be kidding me creators. what the flippin’ heck does that mean? Just get serious and do the mansion island. 😡
I know!! It sounds really lame, almost as bad as Big Nate. I don’t like the animated cartoon islands (no offense to the people who love Charlie Brown). I thought it was a mini-quest at first!
The mansion, SUV and dino-tracks HAS to be a different island. I wish that they’d just skip the “Great Pumpkin Island” and work more on Mansion Island (or whatever it’s gonna be called).
I guess the Creators decided that they had better make an easy island, since the latest islands (Mythology, Skullduggery, Steamworks, etc.) have been pretty hard.
Oh well.
They should’ve made it at least a medium… An easy island would give us no challenge at all..
I was looking over old posts and comments and see “mansion island” and “Dino prints” and I’m like “This has Cryptids written all over it!”
Yay, Charlie Brown! Hopefully it’ll come out in time for Halloween . . .
Here’s info about the great pumpkin – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Pumpkin
woah! awesome preview! but i cant believe they rated 24C a MEDIUM!!! Honestly too easy to be medium.
People! Do you really think a mansion is going to have to do anything with great pumpkin Island? No.
They probably have 2 islands in production. One is the Great Pumpkin one, the other is something like Jurassic Park!
I DONT BELIEVE THIS!
I LOVE PEANUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
OMGOMGOMG!
I cant believe it!
Welll iT is close to holloween
oh i love charlie brown!
Oh my toodles!! Will there be Snoopy and Charlie Brown and Sally and Lucy and Pigpen!!!
They’re quite smart to use a ZUI.

Yes!!!! I love the peanuts!!! 😀 I wonder if it’s the same as the show and comics!
What were all those sketches for? I don’t even see them in the Sneak Preview!!!
Shaggy: They might be on another part of the island, or they might not be on that particular island at all. We’ll just have to wait and see. 😉
steamworks should be medium.and btw what the heck is g pumpkin island?where did it come from!!??
Hijuyo: Great Pumpkin Island is coming soon, and you can get a sneak peek of it on the map.
