Zomberry Island Trailer and Goldfish Fun Ad

Slanted Fish

The trailer video for Zomberry Island is up! Now that zombies have taken over Eastman, an eerie atmosphere hangs in the city air as one by one, victims are lost to the Zomberry plague…

It should be coming out very soon! When it does, the PHB will definitely be prepared to keep everyone alive with cheats for Zomberry Island.

In the meantime, there’s a new Goldfish Fun ad on Main Streets. (Thanks Mad Tornado and Strange Beetle!) You can find it on islands such as the recent Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but it appears that older players don’t have access to the new building. Inside, you’ll find two games!

Goldfish Fun 2 Games

The first is Jetpack Dash, which is an off-site game that takes you to Goldfishfun.com so you can compete there. The other is Space Race, and all you have to do is get to the finish line first! Move your character (the bigger one) up and down with your cursor to avoid obstacles and get speed boosts (the portals) to go faster. When you win, you’ll be awarded a Space Racer Suit (pictured above) and Flying Fish Power, which sends the goldfish flying across your screen for a few seconds.

Also, the Balloons gold card item from the Store has been updated with a balloon for the Poptropolis Games. Thanks Ayman351! With all this flying around, you might just escape being turned into one of the zombies in the quickly-rising army of drones who proved that you really are what you eat…

Sneak Peeks

Things that go hoppity-hop and skitter in the night

Slanted Fish

Here’s a rarity – the Creators’ Blog has posted some animated sneak peeks! All we know is that “they come out in the night,” but look at them! Aren’t they just so cute to watch? 🙂

This hopping, cawing red bird appears to be a wind-up toy based on the knob on its back, but it’s moving quite realistically for a gadget!

And then there’s this mysterious, seemingly metallic scorpion crawling back and forth in a cage. The description at the end says “Somebody’s getting up to something…” What could it mean?


Could these creatures be part of the upcoming Zomberry Island, or something else entirely? Maybe we’ll know more soon. ‘Til then, they’ll be stuck in this continual loop! 😛

*skitters away*

The final installment of the Zomberry: Day Zero comic is here!

…And it looks like poor Joe’s soul has been claimed as well. The cause of the apocalypse, as we now know, is eating fruit! Now, how to save the town of Eastman is another story, which we’ll find out soon in the upcoming Zomberry Island. This ending is only just the beginning.

If you want to catch up with the rest of the comic, check out: part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and part 5 right here on the PHB. Stay alive!

PHB Sunday Special: Become a Living Zomberry

Slanted Fish

(Happy Sunday! Here’s a guest post by MetusNui; enjoy! -fishy)

Zomberry costumeHi viewers,

I’m MetusNui, a guy who likes blogging, but doesn’t have a blog of his own. This is my second post on PHB (click here to see the first) and today I’m going to talk about Zomberry Island. Want to know how to dress like a uh… zomberry?

  1. Colorize your hair and skin purple/indigo (your hair should a darker shade).
  2. Complete the Haunted House and get the Zombie Costume.
  3. Customize the Eyes and the Mouth.
  4. If you have the Applebees item, customize the handheld apple.

Enjoy your zomberry costume! When the island is released, it will look like a zombie (sorry, zomberry) fighting against other zomberries. 🙂

Light is bad, bad stuff (Zomberry: Day Zero – Part Five of Six)

Super Thunder

You’re warm and sleepy in bed, having dreams of chocolate and zomberries. The room is nice and dark and you float around in Poptropica, perhaps scaring tourists in Shark Tooth Island or laughing at all those humble Poptropicans dutifully packing up their bags to go camp out for Zomberry Island. Everything is just perfect. perfect, that is, until-

“Oh, no, momsie! You absolutely must turn off the light now!”

“It’s time for school, get up now.”

I’m positive this scenario has occurred to every Poptropican more than once. Don’t be ashamed to admit it. We’re all in this together.

Anyway, it appears that those epic zombies (or are they epic?) of Zomberry Island need to be stopped! And who better than Joe to stop them? Here we continue on with our epic story, Zomberry: Day Zero!

Well, Poptropicans, it seems that we all share one common trait with zombies; we all burn from light on certain days. What if… *epic gasp* the moral is that Poptropicans are the real zombies?

The whole idea of a zombie apocalypse is fresh in my mind due to the idea of zombie and berry being together in one sentence. Zomberry is such a nice word, isn’t it?

Remember to check back here, the PHB, for details. Everything you need to know for Zomberry Island will be brought to you here, by us! And while you’re at it, why not check out the island guides and complete any islands you’re missing? That way, you’re all ready to go when Zomberry Island comes out!

P.S. Did you guys notice how we got left with a cliffhanger until Monday?
