Sorry I’ve been posting so much lately. I figured you guys were getting bored of me so I was going to let someone else do it for a change, but I figured up-to-date news is more important. So, here goes.
First of all, there’s a new Creator’s blog post about the Cryptids Island preview.
Cryptids Island in the wild
Well, well, well — look what’s sneaked its way onto the Poptropica map.
You can visit Cryptids Island now for a special sneak preview! You’ll be dropped on the shores of Loch Ness. Check out the viewfinder next to the castle to see the amazing sights. If you’re lucky, you might even spot Nessie!
Anyone who does see the Loch Ness Monster through the viewfinder will win a special prize (and Poptropica Members get even more time to look). You can try once per day, so if you don’t see her today, try again tomorrow!
This post has been brought to you by our good friends at the Mews Foundation.
CAPTAIN CRAWFISH
Well, that says just about all doesn’t it. Keep looking through the viewfinder every day to hopefully get a picture of Nessy. (When someone on the PHB gets the prize we’ll tell you what it is.)
Credit to -jEllo- for cheat: If you look through the viewfinder, then save your game and log back in you can use it again. Repeat the process to look through it for as long as you want. Be sure to send us some pictures if you find him, we’ll give you credit!
Also, if you click on that link it takes you to Poptropica’s new sponsor, The Mews Foundation. (mewsfoundation.org)
Which is very funny because that is not a real organization. They actually made a whole site just for a business from Poptropica! (What a work effort!)
Visit our sponsor!
We are very pleased to inform you that the official Poptropica blog is being sponsored by our benevolent overlords at the Mews Foundation. Their interest in the more… unusual frontiers of science is one that all of the Poptropica Creators can get behind. The truth is out there, and the Mews Foundation is going to find it.

Head over to the website to learn more about the history behind Poptropica’s businessperson of the year, Harold Mews, how he relates to the upcoming island, and what his challenge for you is! Check it out for yourself. 😀

lol I though I found nessie but then i was seeing fur and I was like: NESSIE DUN HAVE FUR!? xD (Man: Watch out for ol’ sparky! PS: My teacher once went to scotland. Maybe he has seen nessie… :O )
Yeah He just said the same thing to me as well.
LOL. I like your posting. I can’t find Nessie! Ugh. Even with extra time as a member!
COOL GLITCH:
Save your game after you tried to find nessie, then logout.
Log in again and try again! 😀
I had no idea. That is such an awsome glitch!
hey that worked! 😀 thanks
Hey to prob! 🙂
I still can’t find nesse! Even with that glitch!
It’s ok, even with that glitch I myself can’t even find nessie!
Ha ha! I haven’t found Nessie yet, I’ll have to try again tomorrow. *Sigh* I can’t wait for Cryptids Island! 😀
Hey guys in the daily pop the pic with hoof-prints on the roof has to be the Jersey Devil! It has to be! According to a book I have about cryptids the Jersey Devil
has hooves! The picture of how it looks like (what they think it does) is very
creepy…… It looks like a bat-horse like thing. What will happen when we encounter it? Will we escape from it alive? :O
on a website this is a thing i found about how it looks:
It was about three feet and half high, with a head like a collie dog and
a face like a horse. It had a long neck, wings about two feet long, and
its back legs were like those of a crane, and it had horse’s hooves.
It walked on its back legs and held up two short front legs with paws
on them.
Creepy…..
nessie is really hard to find and did you know you can replay it by relogin and playing again.
yeah but creators read this. shhhh
the creators are weird in ways but im happy ” Jeff Kinney ” made poptropica because there is so many islands to play and that is NOT FAIR TO GO ON THEM BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO BE A MEMBER BEFORE NON-MEMBERS HAVE TO WAIT FOREVER TO GO ON THE ISLAND!!!!!!! BUT thank you for makeing Poptropica creators im happy you made poptropica because i usely play it to pass time when i get really bored.
If you look through the viewfinder and look up you might see a hot air balloon like in one of the PCB posts!
COOL! If you look below the dog you can see popcorn.
IT’S MOVIEH TIME! lol
How did the hot air balloon get dere?
Yeah, you get a few cameos from different islands. I saw the ship from Counterfeit, Balloon boy in a hot air balloon, a helicopter from RTV, Captain Crawfish’s ship. I even took screenshots! This is the best sneak peek EVER.
So Balloon boy has been finally saved? LOL
Maybe the Jersey Devil will chase after him in the air! (LOL)
i saw a little sail boat sink when i looked for nesee
GUess what members can play Cryptids island this December and non members can play in January! YAY
I FOUND NESSIE basically looks like a normal sea monster, long neck, u could only see a silloutte of her though.
i got a nessie hat…
WHERE???? WHERE WAS NESSIE????
did you find her above or below water?
above, she’s swimming like a…duck..
Where did ya find it? I just look out on the humps and wait until my time is up.
Some people here have seen nessie, but THEY HAVEN’T TOLD WHAT’S THE PRIZE! I think it should be early access.
Teh persun above u found itz and told us. ^^
aw man i was this close to seeing nessie and than he/she/it went back under the water
here is a interesting fact, one of the first pictures and one of the most used for the loch ness monster was originally a Halloween mask and part of a tree
HAHA lol i just saw a bigfoot or bust blimp
I saw that too. It was some kind of bicycle blimp thing.
HOLD ON. Does looking through the viewfinder USE YOUR CREDITS? Considering that the prize is A NESSIE HAT… decide for yourself if it’s worth it. It’s probably gonna be as rare as the 3rd anniversary costume once the Creators remove the option of getting a prize from seeing Nessy through that viewfinder…
GA: Nope, it dosen’t use your credits. 😉
You know how you have to put coins in to look in a viewfinder? It also gives you a short amount of time to look in a real viewfinder.
On the view finder I found:
TONS of fish.
Captain Crawfish’s ship!
a dog in front of the view finder.
No nessie. 😦
I found the SWF File of the Prize for Finding Nessie: http://static.poptropica.com/items/item3158.swf
http://www.poptropica.com/avatarstudio/avatar.html?a=bQmRVWHJQZUhoNGVIaDRlQT09
here is the prize
Here’s Nessie:
Is nessie a boy or a gurl? >.< i dun know!!!
Here’s the Nessie Hat:
I finally found Nessie! It took me three whole days! I even went on my other accounts. I love the Mews Foundation! 😀
I Researched that the there is a castle called Urquhart Castle looking at loch ness lake. That’s probably the unfinished castle when you go to the sneak peek.
Well,as I can see,Nessie is very well hidden.
btw,why and how is the blog snowing?How can I get it for my blog?
Appearance>Extras>Click snow
so as far as we know we can only expect to see nessie on the horizon. is that correct?
😮 i just remembered where i saw those hoof prints on the roof picture before. that is a alleged jersey devil picture. i think these monsters will appear in cryptids island- definitely loch ness monster, Bigfoot and possibly the jersey devil, and the chupacabra (a Mexican monster known for sucking blood mostly goats and is explained as a dog or bat like creature
yeah i think you are right
Lone Bones and Scary Catfish are right cause i bought this cryptids book at the book fair. The picture of the Jersey Devil is odd and freaky.
In real life, that sort of viewfinder uses up your credits.
And how far left or right is that Nessy? We now need a video…
note: It’s on the right side from where you start.
ITS SO HARD TO FIND NESSIE 😡
EDIT: I COULDN’T FIND NESSY ON THE HORIZON! Is it different for every player?
I don’t like the Nessie hat very much…
I don’t like it that much, either.
I was desperate to find the hat, but when I saw the actual pic… um… I guess I’ll change my mind.
Same here….. so I really don’t care if I find Nessie or not….
Yeah its kind of kiddish.Know what I mean.
i cannot find nessie any where, i only found ol sparky,a pelican and a seagull also i see a hot air balloon a speed boat, captain crawfish boat popcorn carrot and a helicoptor.
i have a theory on finding nessie. i believe that it only appears on the horizon but most of the view finder time it is behind one of those rock formations or hills in the background
p.s. do you mind if i do a cryptid island guide
Hijuyo: Anyone is welcome to write guides for the PHB. 🙂
really? when it comes out i might?
“it only appears on the horizon but most of the view finder time it is behind one of those rock formations or hills in the background”
Just wanna bring attention to this.
And exactly where is Nessy? A video would help a lot more…
Why is there a bunch on Binary code in the Mews Foundation Creator Blog?
BINARY Bard posted it.It stands for “mews you can use”
here is what the other 3 monsters are described to look like for those that do not know
jersey devil- head of a horse, front limbs like paws, bat wings, long stork like legs, and hooves
bigfoot- large, apelike, has big feet
loch ness monster- described as a creature like a plesiosaurus, has a very long neck and 4 flippers with a small tail.
on mews foundation under challenge it says or for the monsters
do u need to find them all or just one? idk
what do u think? will u need to find all of the cyrptids or just one?
most likely all of them otherwise it wouldn’t be a very long island and some people would complain about not being able too look for all of them
Yeah I want a hard island! Not as easy as Great Pumpkin!
I found a site to translate those numbers [the binary code, for people who know what it’s called. LoL].
I got so mad when I found this site AFTER I figured out the code without it. the code in the post translates to…
“Mews you can use.”
T____T … why do I waste my life so?
Anyway here’s the sit if anyone’s interested
http://www.qbit.it/lab/bintext.php?text=test&enc=Encode+text+to+binary+code
Or simply type in Binary code in Google. XDD
i just went onto poptropica home page…
you know the part where all those characters go past?
i saw one with a nessie hat…
🙂
UPDATE: My teacher actually WENT to the castle that looks into the lochness. It looks pretty. 🙂
(PS: Loch means lake and ness is a town by the lake. 🙂 My teacher told me that. 😀 )
I found her today, the day Cryptids island comes out :3
do you have to beat the island for this?
