Advertisements, Bonus Items

In the name of Applebee’sยฎ, let it pour

Poptropica’s having another Applebee’s promotion, and like before, you’ll find a Family Activity Book available from the kids menu of this North American restaurant. According to this article, the offer goes from now until November 10th. It features coloring exercises, games, and puzzles. Thanks, Muddy Axe!

Thanks goes to Moody Eel for letting us know about the new promo code that comes with the meal –ย applebees12. Just enter that in the top-right corner of the Poptropica Store for a cool new freebie! ๐Ÿ™‚

The item is limited edition, so use the code before it expires. You’ll get Applebee’s Apple Powered Glasses, which also comes with a handheld apple that looks like the Applebee’s logo.

When you press the spacebar, your character will happily summon a torrent of these apples to rain down all over the screen in the name of Applebee’sยฎ. Cool huh? ๐Ÿ˜€

An apple a day keeps the doctor away!

Sweet and sour, street and power

The Super Villain Island members gear pack is now available! Visit the Poptropica Store to pick up your free Night Hare costume (inverted/negative-colored Dr. Hare – this one’s limited edition), Sleeping Powder power (makes everyone fall asleep), and Evil Henchmen item (drops bunnies, crawfish, spiders, robotic mice). Awesome! Thanks, Muddy Axe.

There’s also an ad building forย Monster High, so if you’re interested, check out the costumes and special prizes in the dorms of Venus (prize: Pollenator), Rochelle (Stone Gargoyle), and Robecca (Jetpack)! You might also see some other players around because it appears to be a sort of common room as well.

Some recent new sneak peeks on the Daily Pop suggest a possible city-themed island we may see in the future. Could it be related to this Creator sneak peek about the birth of an island? It even mentions the word smoothie, and one of these newer sneak peeks shows a building called Sluggy’s Smoothies. There’s also a Subway, matching both the island-process-planning sneak peek mentioned, and the Daily Pop.

Breakdown – Looks like a bad neighborhood.
In Outline – We only need the broad strokes when laying out scenes.
Cup of Joe – I like my coffee like I like my comedy: black.

On Roald Dahl Day, the Creators confirmed what we had been suspecting: an island themed after Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! Lots of Daily Pops have evidence for the idea, including this newer one depicting the infamous chocolate river Augustus Gloop fell into:

Deep and Dark – There’s nothing sweet about this dangerous place.

If you haven’t already, look for the blue balloon with a “5” on it in any common room (though Early Poptropica’s Soda Pop Shop is the easiest because of its smaller size) and pop it to get a bonus firework-shooting, limited edition epic birthday cake costume. There’s also a free color-changing balloon in the Store! Poptropica’s 5th birthday celebration lasts for the rest of September. Check out BT’s post for more pics!

The balloon should look like this:

In other news, don’t forget to join in the PHB’s 7 million hits celebration for your chance to win an account with a rare costume! It ends next Friday, September 21st. Click here for more information.

That concludes another mega post! Have a great weekend! ๐Ÿ˜€

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Island

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory island confirmed!

‘Ello fellows, ready for some jolly good Poptropica news?

Just in time for September 13’s Roald Dahl Day, the Creators announced that they are working on an island based on everyone’s favorite childhood tale,ย Charlie and the Chocolate Factory – as predicted by our good mate Brave Tomato in previous postsย hereย and there. Now that’s sure to have you gobsmacked.

In case you’re too daft to know, Roald Dahl was the chap who wrote classic stories such asย James and the Giant Peach,ย Matilda,ย The BFG, and of course, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.ย Absolutely nuts! ๐Ÿ˜€

(And yes, Roald Dahl was British. Ace.)

Lunar Colony Island, Super Villain Island

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon

Hey guys! As you probably know by now, Lunar Colony Island has been released for everyone. If you need help, check out the PHB’s written walkthrough, video playlist, map, discussion page, or chatroom.

The Poptropica Tour pages for all islands have been redecorated for the upcoming Super Villain Island, with dark edges and the main villains (Bard, Crawfish, Widow, and Hare) circled with blue lightning.

While you’re there, you may as well visit the tour page for Super Villain and pick up the island extras: the desktop wallpaper and printable poster. Looks like Super Villain’s going to be super epic! ๐Ÿ˜€
