Your Island Pack

elmopwns

Yes, as mentioned, the new SOS island is oficially released to the public. Very big deal to the Poptropica community. Members also have an exclusive access to an indept second story full with unprecedented twists and turns. So you can expect everyone to be out solving the synopsis of both tales as players set foot onto the new island.

What also came a bit earlier were the special Members Only packs. As you may have noticed, these come out with nearly every island. The sonar power lets you track your motion radar and see what other CPU’s or players are coming near you. The fishing pole is another nifty accessory that goes along with the theme of the island. Then of course you have your captain’s costume, dressed in full naval regalia. Splendid.

If you’re still reading this, you’re probably very excited. In this case, I recommend you go and feed it by treating yourself by taking a full dosage of the new SOS Island. So leave this page, and go beat that island 😉

 

Merchandise, Store

We’re in for some merchandise

elmopwns

Just of recent a few new products have apparently been released into Poptropica’s Zazzle.com store. For all your viewing conveniences, it could be found here. They got everything Poptropica related for you die hard fans. Shirts, wall graphics, iPhone decorators. Name it, they got it.

These “few new products” include a multiplicity and assortment of posters. There’s only three made, but at least they got ’em so far.

Simple, slick, explainitive…perfect. A picture can explain a thousand words after all. First up we got our Island Map poster. Needed to know any of the island layouts? No prob, bro. This’ll get you up to date with everything. It’s got every island in order and up to exact date, large scaled print size, and some cool looking graphics. Next up we got the medallions. Shiny, gold, and up to date as well. Almost looks like some sorta trophy chest had it not been on printed paper. Finally we have a group pic of all the hotshot characters in the game. Captain Crawfish, Dr. Hare, you name it as well.

For each picture you can select between sizes. You either pick small, medium or large. Prices vary. Then you can choose what kind of paper you want it on – Value Poster Paper, Premium Canvas, etc. Again, prices will vary. You can also see snapshots/images of how this looks on your room framed and all. Lastly, you can even get it framed for a low low price of starting at 85.30 dollars. A little overboard, creators? This isn’t a Nobel Peace Prize xD.

Before I go, some of you may have lost me somewhere upon seeing the guy posting was titled “Rainbow Dash”. Yeah, sounds feminine, I know. That’s because on a quick other note before I end this post: yeah, I changed my name to Rainbow Dash. My old name was EP if some of you remember me posting. And I also changed my profile appearance picture to “Rainbow Dash” from The My Little Pony series. Shock. I know. And very bluntly, that’s because I’ve actually started watching the MLP: Friendship is Magic show. My first question is going to be probably this: why? I don’t know in truth, mainly because ponies are pretty epic, especially when they’re potrayed in some 7 year old’s cartoon. So I guess I’m just saying this to let you know basically that I got my identity and name changed on all my online users, that I won’t be online very much for the next few months mainly because of this and other things like MLP outside of this online community, and I’m most likely not going to be posting in awhile or never so often in truth. Just please don’t mistake me for a new author or something, since RD isn’t. So that’s it, my little note. Thanks for reading.  And before I go, just to put a little happiness and fun into everyone’s day, here’s a MLP gif from online

RD signing off, see you out there.

 

 

Snapshot Series

Museum visit

Well, well, well. What have we here in this new PCB post? It’s a new year, and as ST mentioned: Happy New Year, everyone! Of course, now that that’s over with, Dr. Hare is at it again! Poptropica’s little evil minded genius will start once again this year to travel all over the world’s different locations.

This photo came along with his most recent visit.

Eek! Don’t get too close to that thing, Dr. Hare. I’m afraid it’s not as fake as it seems and may eat you alive ;). Just kidding. Hmmm…upon closer examination he appears to be in some sort of museum. The cat is obviously a motionless yet realistic prop…what museum could this be? I could think of one major one: The Smithsonian Instituition of Natural History. Long name indeed. Before they oficially post the answers, it’s time for you guys to take your best shot :D.

Guess away!

EP out!

Ghost Story Island

Now out!

elmopwns

It’s EP here, and this is a quick yet sweet and short post/announcement. GHOST STORY ISLAND IS NOW OUT! Members can play the full version of this spooky island whilst non-members can play a partial version of it just to get a taste of what it’s like!

Here’s the trailer they once again posted:

And finally, new changes are coming through the air of Poptropica. It seems to happen a few times each year. The creators have perhaps refurnished graphic effects and overall look and feel of the game. A new post has an image detailing these “changes”:

Well, they’ve added a bit of detail as it appears to me. If you look carefully at the building blocks there are detailed textures on them. They also added shadows and clouds apparently.

How many new things can you spot?

So, what are you waiting for? Go out there and go hunt some ghosts!

App

The app has arrived!

elmopwns

Attention, all ye poptropicans. The long awaited app from the Poptropica creators has finally arrived! The creators have been hinting at it for MONTHS. They’ve given us time to time snapshots, photos, and updates. Finally after all this time, the app is available for purchase in the iTunes Store!

The app is titled Poptropica: Tips and Tricks. It’s the only app by the creators. The app is available for purchase for all Apple product users here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/poptropica-official-tips-tricks/id476956418. Use an android? Fear not. There’s another app for Android users on the Android Market. Android users can find the app here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.pearson.poptropica.

This app is amazing! If we zoom in closer to the image, you can tell there’s a variety of features to be used. There’s news of updates to the app on “What’s new”. You can access a list of island guides by tapping on the button. Then from there on out, each island has a different page (such as the Game Show Island example they had earlier) where you can view the complete walkthrough, items to obtain, goals to achieve, and even boss fights on certain islands.

The app is currently free (thanks to those who found this typo, owe you one, guys). It comes with Game Show Island, but to purchase other islands you will need to pay 99 cents for each.  Get yours today!
