Bonus Items, Great Pumpkin Island, Membership

Great Pumpkin Island is out!!

Yes, you saw that right! Great Pumpkin Island is out for members TODAY! (That was fast, wasn’t it? Sorry to all the non-members out there but you’re going to have to wait until it releases on October 14th for everyone…) So if you’re a Poptropica member, go log in NOW, YES NOW and go play Great Pumpkin Island!!

The rating for the island is “easy,” but if it’s still a challenge for you, a written walkthrough guide from the Poptropica Help Blog (PHB – that’s us!) is available here!

Trick or treat, Charlie Brown!

Looks like us members get a bonus too! (Yes, I got a member account :D) This exclusive “Woodstock Follower” gold card is available to any members who log in during the Early Access period, which lasts from now (September 30th) to October 14th, 2010 according to the official info page!

You could have Snoopy's little friend follow you everywhere and accompany you on your adventures!

The island’s plot closely follows the TV special “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” if you’re familiar with that. A fun and simple island to enjoy for October’s Halloween season – so members, go log on NOW and non-members, you get to experience the island for yourself in just TWO WEEKS! :O Sweet.

In other news (again :P): Shadoo, also from the PHC has a Poptropica band called Frost City (of which I am a part of 🙂 ) and would also like to share it with you! The link is http://frostcity.wordpress.com/ and the official chat is http://xat.com/frostcity .

Blog Hijacking & The PHF

POLL TIME!

Plesh take this poll: http://www.blog.thephf.com/2010/09/30/what-do-you-want-to-come-out-next-poll/ 🙂

————————————————

HERRO!

I am hijacking this blog to make a VERY important announcement…I FINALLY GOT TO MEET ELMO!!!

*silence*

What, you’re not happy for me? Fine. Who needs you anyway.

I kid. What I really wanted to post about…has been posted on the PHF Blog. It is a post about…The POPMATRIX! (which is finally out, by the way so READ THE POST…:)). While you’re on the PHF Blog, please take the time to subscribe (right sidebar, topmost!). Thank you dear. (LOLOLO)

Oh, and just in case you were wondering why I’ve been less active on the PHB, it’s mostly because of the PHF. But hopefully I’ll be more active when my schedule frees up.

So…I’ll just be hiding in this extremely convenient manhole here…

Great Pumpkin Island, Sneak Peeks

Good grief, Pumpkin Island!

Today on the Creators’ Blog, Captain Crawfish revealed the Great Pumpkin Island map – or some of it, anyway. We still don’t know much about the island, but there are seven areas – a lot less than most other islands, but still pretty cool! Here’s the image below. What places do you think we’ll get to visit?

Good things do come in small packages, after all.

And at the end of his PCB post, Crawfish hints that there are plenty of mini-games and adventures on GP Island that don’t appear on the map, so it’s more than it looks! The PHB has also updated its Island Help page to include resourceful links about Great Pumpkin Island, so be sure to check those out! 🙂

Great Pumpkin Island

Everyone’s favorite icon…

The annoying orange! Actually, it’s not him. It’s Snoopy! He’s come to Great Pumpkin Island!  And apparently he has nothing to say. But everyone else has more to say, so be sure to chat with them!

I'm roasting this pumpkin so he'll never see the Great Pumpkin...

Along with everyone saying new things… here’s the famous dog himself!

I think me and Snoopy have a future together...I ❤ Snoopy!

Anything is possible when your man smells like an old spice man and not a lady. I’m on a horse. *whistles old spice jingle*

Don’t get caught on Fish Hooks!

Welcome, freshmen... to Fresh Water High!

 

As I was doing Steamworks Island on one of my accounts, I came across an ad — Fish Hooks! It’s an original series on Disney Channel that apparently premieres tonight! It’s a little quest where you have to find Bea’s yearbook picture and switch it! If you need help, here’s a written walkthrough: 

  1. Enter the tank and talk with Milo, Oscar, and Bea. They need help finding Clamantha. Bea  gives you a replacement photo for her yearbook picture, and Milo gives you a note to distract Clamantha saying Oscar needs to talk with her alone. After you get those 2 items, walk right into Hokey Poke *snigger*
  2. Talk to Shellsea in Hokey Poke Restaurant, and she gives you a key to the yearbook room. Exit and then enter Freshwater High.
  3. Walk all the way to the end, and use the key to unlock the yearbook room. Enter.
  4. Avoid the giant pearls being shot out at you but make it quick, because there are lasers that block the doors every 5 seconds or so. They get removed once all the lasers have blocked the door.  Once avoided, walk into the photo room. TIP! If you have minimizer, use it then run straight across on the ground at pearls part.~Jane
  5. Talk to Clamantha and give her the note that Milo gave you. She says she needs to leave right away (because she has a crush on him) and leaves the room. Click on the photos.
  6. You have to find the photo in 15 seconds or you lose. If you find it in time, you win the quest! Your rewards are an Underwater Effect, which, when turned on, makes the screen fill with water that stays on until you turn it off, or leave the room you’re currently in; and an official Fish Hooks T-shirt! Congratulations! 😀
  • Islands found on so far: Steamworks, Mythology, Early Poptropica, Super Power (If you find any more island with this ad, just comment below!)
  • Age Limit: I think any age will work… I found it on my 12 yr old account. 😀

And here’s a video walkthrough – thanks, Hicoga! 😀 

 

Have fun and remember: don’t get caught on Fish Hooks! 😛 

IN OTHER NEWS: Loud Shark from the PHC, who also goes by the stage name Alien Dipper, has a Poptropica band called The Shaded Rockerz and would like to share it with you! *points at you* (And don’t say that pointing is rude! :P) Click on the Poptropican singing rock star below to visit their official website!
