Advertisements, Home Island

A Merry Moana Advertisement

Hello, everyone!

Lucky Joker here, sharing with you, an amazing Moana ad and Home Island makeover!

As many of you have noticed, Home Island has been altered to fit the theme for the upcoming Disney movie, Moana. It sort of resembles the island that Moana lives on in the movie.

In celebration of this upcoming film, there is also an advertisement to go along with this transformation.

In the ad, you can play a really cool game that involves you Wayfinding on a raft in the ocean, which is what Moana and Maui do in the film if you’ve seen the trailer.

Your goal is to make it all the way to the finish line without hitting any of the obstacles, which include: rocks, seaweed, and even whirlpools, so watch out!

You have five lives, which are represented by five sailboats at the top of your game screen. The bar to the left tells you how far you’ve made it toward your destination. Once it’s completely green, you’ve finished. That and the finish line will be in hindsight. 😛

Upon completion of the game, you will receive some cool prizes! These prizes are Water Power and Hei Hei Hat, and here they are!

Wait! There’s more to be done. This ad offers another fun game to earn another pair of awesome prizes!

The second game is a timed search. You’re required to find all of the parts to Moana’s boat in two minutes. It’s fairly simple as there are only four parts needed to be found. Just work your way up to the top of the Kakamora ship to find them.

Once all the parts have been found, you’ll receive Pua Follower and Water Burst.

The film premiers in theaters starting the 23rd of November in the US. Do you plan on seeing it? I think I’ll give it a try! Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this ad and the prizes it has to offer. POP on!

Home Island, Islands of the Month, Poptropolis Games Island, Shrink Ray Island, Store

App-stonishing pet followers & November’s IotM!

Hello, everyone!

Lucky Joker here bringing you a Poptropica app update, as well as new Islands of the Month!

If you haven’t logged on to Poptropica in a while, allow me to enlighten you. 😛 Poptropica has finally added conventional pets to the store with the Cat Pack and Dog Pack! And now, these guys (as well as the plethora of other new fall goodies) are also available on the app.

And guess what? Unlike the online version, everything’s available for purchase for 0 credits. That’s right, they’re FREE! Even the pets! If you haven’t already, get yours today!

The Cat Pack includes three different variations: a grumpy black one, a fuzzy gray one and, my personal favorite, a calico cutie.

The Dog Pack also includes three different kinds: A brown one, A loyal labrador and happy mutt.

Cute, right? For a closer look at all these fall goodies, see this PHB post.

Also, an NPC on Home Island could possibly be hinting at future Thanksgiving-themed costumes. (Thanks to idk for the tip.) Check it out!

Cats & Costumes, Dogs & Dresses

Hello, everyone!

Lucky Joker here, sharing with you, some new updates from the Poptropica Creators!

This week has been filled with cool updates and sneak peeks for both, new and current Poptropica! First off, we got a cool look at the making of a monster worm. Then, we got some very creepy puppet costumes in the store, along with a new spooky wheel on Home Island. And now…

pets252c2boutfits252c2band2bcostumes2bon2bpoptropica2bfb

We have some awesome new fashion and followers! In the spirit of the season (that is, if you’re living in the northern hemisphere), Poptropica has come up with some more fall attire and Halloween gear!

Woof! Meow! What was that? Oh right! Poptropica now has something we’ve all been wanting for a while. They’ve heard the requests and now have added pet followers to the Poptropica store! How exciting, am I right?

Currently, a Cat Pack and a Dog Pack are available with three variations of each. But who knows what types of followers we will see in the new Poptropica? Perhaps other pets like turtles, rabbits, and more! But for now, I’m so happy these adorable creatures are now available for purchase. Check ’em out:

Poptropica New Halloween Costumes and Fall Fashion.png

The Halloween Accessory Pack (250 credits) contains five different handheld items: a trick-or-treating jack-o-lantern, paper bag with candy, potion cauldron, science test tube, and gravedigger’s shovel.

The Cat Pack has three different cat breeds: a pure black one, a fuzzy gray kitty, and a calico cutie.

The Dog Pack comes with three furry dogs: a brown one, a loyal Labrador, and a happy mutt.

The girls’ versions of the other costumes are also slightly different, as you can see below:

The female Bog Monster (350 credits) has a flower on its head, Sportsball Girl doesn’t come with goggles like the Boy variant (275 credits), Skull Girl’s color is purple while Skull Boy’s is blue (300 credits), and Jill O’Lantern and Wolf Girl are a little different from Jack O’Lantern and Wolf Boy respectively (not to be confused with the Werewolf costume in the store).

Wolf Boy/Girl, Jack/Jill O’Lantern, and the pets (Cat Pack and Dog Pack) are all for members only. Members can also get anything in the store for free for the duration of their membership.

Cool creeptastic costumes (and pets) all around!

Also, the third book of the Poptropica graphic novel series, The Secret Society, is now available for pre-order! The release date is scheduled as April 11, 2017.

The story revolves around a secret society known as the “protectors” of Poptropica trying to do everything they can to preserve the mysterious world. Go and get your copy as soon as possible!

So what about you guys? Are you excited about all of these incredible new items, as well as the release of Poptropica: The Secret Society? I sure am. Leave your thoughts in the comment section below! Pop on!
