Daily Pop, Mocktropica Island

Our first look at some possible Mocktropica Island locations!

Hey everyone! I didn’t disappear, I have just been REALLY swamped with school work this semester, but I’m finally having time to both play and blog! Don’t worry, I’m going to be very active from now on that I managed to get through this first semester of high school. Back to the news!

With Mocktropica Island getting nearer and nearer, we may be getting our first look at what the inner workings of the Island will look like via the Daily Pop. Click the thumbnails to enlarge the pictures:

It looks like some of these resemble already established islands such as Twisted Thicket or Astro-Knights! Do you think that we will have to go into old islands and fix them? Some others look like we could either be creating new locations or maybe finishing locations. Either way, I think that these new locations shown in these previews will be pretty exciting!!

What do you think of these possible locations? How do you think that these locations will play into Mocktropica?

Avengers Assemble!

The Non-Stop Summer advertisement has been updated again! For a limited time, you can transform yourself into a giant green rage monster! All you have to do is watch a preview for the new Disney XD show Hulk and the agents of S.M.A.S.H.!

You will want to click on A-Bomb (the giant blue guy standing beside the video) before watching the video. Once the video is over, you receive the Giant Green Hulk Power.

But that’s not all! Once you have won the Kickin’ It game, the Randy Cunningham game, obtained the Crazy Helmet item from the Porta-Party room, and talked to A-Bomb (the big blue guy standing beside the Hulk video) you receive the special bonus prize, which is…. drum roll please…. the Iron Man Outfit!

As always, once you click on the “hulk size” button or the “make me a hero” button, you will put on the Hulk or Iron Man costumes, but you will return back to what you were wearing before when you enter a new room/area. That means if you want to be able to wear the costumes anywhere you go, you have to press Ctrl + Shift + S, but be warned, this will do away with what you were already wearing and replace it with the Hulk or Iron Man costumes.

The Avengers can now assemble on Poptropica with Captain America, Hulk, and Iron Man all being available as costumes! I have been waiting for this for so long! Which is your favorite? I really like the Iron Man outfit.

Avengers Assemble!

4th of July Special: Captain America Costume

First off, to all those who are celebrating today, have a great 4th of July!

It appears that Poptropica is also celebrating, giving out a special prize that is perfect for today – a Captain America costume! The Disney XD Non-Stop Summer ad building has been updated to include the preview for the new Disney XD series Avengers Assemble, premiering this Sunday at 11AM/10 Central. So far, I have only found it on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Island on boy accounts.

Once you watch the video, you receive the new Captain America Outfit! When you click on the “make me a hero” button, you are inserted into Captain America’s costume, but you will return back to what you were wearing before when you enter a new room/area. That means if you want to be able to wear the costume anywhere you go you have to press Ctrl + Shift + S, but be warned, this will do away with what you were already wearing and replace it with the Captain America Outfit.

The Creators also posted a reminder that no 4th of July celebration is complete without fireworks! You can head on over to the Poptropica Store and pick up the Fireworks gold card now and admire the amazing explosions.

Happy 4th of July!

Despicable Me 2 and Non-Stop Summer Games!

Get your fart guns ready, because there are two new advertisement buildings on Poptropica!

DM2

First off, there is a new ad on Main Streets for Despicable Me 2, in theaters July 3rd.

Inside the building there are three different games you can play.  The first of which is Bee-Do: The Emergency Minion response game. This game is very similar to the old game Donkey Kong. You have to climb up through Gru’s lab using the arrow keys and put out the fire with a fire extinguisher. Make sure to dodge the falling cups that come at you! Pick up cupcakes, unicorns, and bananas for bonus points. Your prize is your very own Minion Costume!

DM2a

The next game is a training mission from Lucy, an agent of AVL. This game is like a scavenger hunt.  You have to find four items that have been scattered throughout the mall.  They are a lipstick taser, a blue car, a freeze ray, and an AVL badge. You are provided with a radar which shows you where all of the items are located so it isn’t too difficult. Once all four are found you win the Lipstick Taser Power which lets you give other Poptropicans a little shock and the Fart Gun Power which lets you knock over other Poptropicans with that gnarly stink.

The last game is Bop-a-Minion. It is very similar to Wac-a-Mole. You have to hit the minions as they pop up. Hitting minions holding coins will earn you in-game money towards unlocking new minions to bop. Minions holding a 200 sign are worth 200 bonus points. Make sure not to hit minions holding bombs because that will mean game over for you. Your prize for this game is the Freeze Ray Power which lets you freeze other Poptropicans in blocks of ice!

DM2c

Next is a new building for Disney XD’s Non-Stop Summer. Once you enter the building on Steamworks Island you can hop on a bike and make your way to the adventure. Once you have won all of the games, you get a special bonus prize, but that will have to wait until July 8th when the last game is released. (Note: You may find this ad in the transition area between places. Just click to go to the Disney XD ad!)

I see, it’s clever because the bike tires make an infinity sign.

The first stop on this summer road trip is at the Kickin’ It: Race the Black Dragons game. This game is a plain old race to the finish. Beat the Red Dragon bike to the finish by hitting green speed boosts and dodging puddles and pot holes. If you win you earn the Kickin’ It High Kick Power!

Next up on our road trip is the Crash and Bernstein Burp Along game. Hit the arrow keys in the correct order to copy Bernstein’s burp pattern. Once you match him burp for burp six times you win the Crash Follower.

The last stop on our road trip as at the Lab Rats: Virus Eddie game. This is a matching game, so you have to find and match both of pictures of each character. Once you have matched all four pairs you win the Adam’s Laser Vision Power which lets you shoot optic blasts where ever you point your mouse.

Which mini-game is your favorite to play? I personally enjoyed the Bop-a-Minion.

Virus Hunter Island

Journey to the center of Carl

Hey there!

This week has given us some new looks at Virus Hunter Island and the currently unnamed battle bot island (possibly Mocktropica Island). First off we got a look at a marvelous hero preparing to save Poptropica from the evil lurking within (literally).

Later, we were able to confirm that this was in fact a screen shot from… wait for it… the trailer for Virus Hunter which you can view below.

At the end we get a statement that Poptropica is “now in sound” which seems to confirm that not only this island will be released in sound, but that all of the previous islands can be looking for a full sound makeover in the possibly not so distant future.

The Daily Pop has also offered up some previews at what we can expect from this upcoming battle bot adventure.

BattleBot
Fastball – Watch out, because this bot is coming at you.
Arena
Rock of Ages- When bad guys come calling, you are the quarry.

The first preview appears to show a bot in action and the second appears to show  something that could possibly be a battle arena surrounded by on watching battle bots. I am getting very, very excited about how these battle bots are going to fit into a story. Is it just me, or are these journeys inside of bodies and giant battling robots reminding you of Jimmy Neutron too?
