Hey Poptropicans, what’s popping?
Crusoe’s on Home Island! Okay, it’s not the Crusoe of Monkey Wrench Island – it’s Robinson Crusoe from the new animated movie, The Wild Life (but titled Robinson Crusoe outside the US). There’s an advertisement for it on Poptropica, but only on the mobile app (which you can get here – looks like they’ve updated the promo page for that as well!). (Thanks to Friendly Foot for the tip.)
Anyway, I personally found trying to enter the ad room a bit glitchy – you should be able to enter just by tapping the door entrance, but it took me a few tries of logging out. Sometimes an “Action” button would appear in the bottom corner that you could also tap to enter the room.
Once you enter, you can head up to the top left corner of the room to play a game where you have 30 seconds to tap on fruit before they get too close (as indicated by their size). If you experience the glitchiness of some fruit not appearing and causing you to lose like I did, try exiting the game and going back to it – that fix worked for me. The prizes for winning are a Carmello Follower (floating chameleon; pressing the Action button makes him camouflage) and Pirate Costume.

In other news, RedRiderYT recently pointed out to us that the online Poptropica Shop is no longer selling the custom Poptropican t-shirts and hoodies. Searching for “Poptropica” on the third party website that made the clothing, TV’s Toy Box, results in a “forbidden” error.
If you have one of these shirts or hoodies, that means it’s now a (real life) rare item! Treasure it, keep it, and wear it proudly. You’ll be missed, Poptropica shirt shop.

Oh and by the way, there’s a new Poptropica tool for customization around, no download required… those who are interested can check it out on the PHB’s Glitching page. 🙂
Don’t forget, this weekend is the Closing Ceremony for the PHB Tribal Tournament! It’s going to be a lot of fun, so try to make it if you can! Check out this post for all the details.
That’s all for now – thanks for popping in, Poptropicans!

Ooo. The Wild Life ad looks pretty cool, along with a couple of decent prizes. I’d been wondering where the shirts have gone. It’s unfortunate they’re no longer selling. On a greater note, woohoo! It’s time to see which Poptropica Tribe came out on top, of the Tribal Tournament. 😀
Yup! Thanks for the comment! 😀
I HELPED!!!! I had really wanted a shirt though so now I’m even sadder because it is official and I wanted one for my birthday. 😔
Thanks for the help. 🙂 Yeah, that is unfortunate that they shut it down (my guess is that it wasn’t making enough profit). However, you could try finding a custom shirt printing company and ask to have your Poptropican printed that way.
Ok thanks, that is a really really REALLY good idea
Yeah, my mom said she would by me one for my birthday… I guess that wont be happening now… 😦
awww man I alays wanted to hae shprt feather on a tshirt
Wow, the background in the ad mini game is the same as Monkey Wrench. Coincidence or lazy Creators?!
It can’t be a coincidence, seeing as it’s their newest island, so they would have the clearest memories of it. Total laziness, probably. Anyway, the movie sounds quite interesting. 🙂
Most likely the latter. 😂
Well, it’s still a fitting background, so I wouldn’t fault them for using it here. It saves time that can be used to work on other things, such as New Poptropica. 🙂
You can always make a custom T-Shirt with a print of your character on it.
nice da fishy
i am going to see 9 lives can;t wait XD
Aw man! I remember always seeing those options to “put this look on a shirt” and ignoring it. Well, I guess you never want something until it’s gone, lol.
GAH THANKS CREATORS FOR KILLING YOUR MONEY YOU WANT MONEY YOU JUST LOST MINE
I know right!
OMC i DID notice about the shirts! I though my computer or the internet was just being stupid, but…
*Screams really loud and really long*
My life is over. I WANTED ON OF THOSE SO BAD!!
I’m gonna go cry in a corner with chocolate. Anyone who needs some just ask.
