Wow, seven million visitors to the PHB. That’s pretty huge. I started this blog about four years and a month ago, and look how far it’s come! 😀

Hello! I'm Slanted Fish, the editor-in-chief and creator of the Poptropica Help Blog (PHB). I'm a writer, Hong Kong native, and Christ follower. My Poptropica username is slantedfish 🐠 Don't forget to be awesome!
Caught in a hare-ball
As you probably know, four of Poptropica’s big-name villains will be returning for the upcoming epic “Super Villain Island,” which the PHB has a discussion page for here. 24 Carrot Island was the first time we saw Dr. Hare, and if you haven’t played that yet, check out our walkthrough here!
Want to defeat these vile villains now, before they return? Check them out at:
- Dr. Hare – 24 Carrot Island (guide)
- Black Widow – Counterfeit Island (guide)
- Captain Crawfish – Skullduggery Island (guide)
- Binary Bard – Astro-Knights Island (guide)
Keep checking back here at the PHB for the latest news on the latest islands! 😀

Racing the Pirates
Racing… or erasing? The latest sneak peek from the Creators shows someone using an oversized pencil, trying to rub out Dragon Cove on Skullduggery Island. But why?
Looks like someone is attempting to rub out Poptropica as we know it. But you’re not going to let that happen, are you?
You can click the image for a better view. Even the character seems different… and the eyes aren’t on top of his head, like a regular Poptropican’s! He’s wearing orange goggles, a lab coat (?), maroon gloves and boots (wow, footwear! that’s pretty rare on Poptropica). 😛 What’s going on?
Maybe this has something to do with the Daily Pops featuring the paintings Starry Night or Water Lilies, the latter of which was vandalized, possibly by the Black Widow. Or perhaps, as PHB reader Poptropicaddict speculates, this may have something to do with the upcoming book Pencil Warrior.
Before the pirates get rubbed out, here’s a video walkthrough for the new advertisement game, Pirates: Band of Misfits, by Loud Shark. 😀
Prizes are Pirate Costume, Polly Follower, and Cannon Power. Arrr!

Lunar Colony resources and… Super Villain Island?!
First of all, all our Lunar Colony Island resources are now up and ready on the Poptropica Help Blog! The last two were already there, but the newer ones are:
- Our written walkthrough by Cool Bite and Slanted Fish, with pictures by Stealth Komodo
- PHV video playlist with videos from Graser10
- Labeled map by Fuzzy-B
- Discussion page
- Link to the official tour page which includes the desktop wallpaper & printable poster
- Post about the top ten finishers of Lunar Colony
With all this buzz, PHB reader Aang wants to credit Thinknoodles for the possible discovery of the next island name, which is… SUPER VILLAIN ISLAND! Dun dun dunnnn….
According to this post on the Poptropica Cheatz website, Poptropica tends to buy domain names for the names of some of their islands, such as PoptropolisGames.com or VampiresCurse.com, which all redirect to Poptropica.com. The big discovery here is that SuperVillainIsland.com also redirects to Poptropica! Try it out for yourself.
From all the recent sneak peeks about old villains making a return, and the fact that Dr. Hare wasn’t even in Lunar Colony despite his Rabbot appearing at 40 seconds in the trailer video, it seems quite likely that the next island will be all about these Super Villain[s]!

When the engines cough, and you blast off: Lunar Colony for members!
Remember to breathe because oxygen may be limited up there, but of course that’s all provided. Lunar Colony Island has been released to paid members of Poptropica, and everyone else can play a demo, but will have to wait three more weeks for their turn for the big adventure on September 6th.
The Poptropica Help Blog is working on a written walkthrough. In the meantime, our Lunar Colony Guide page does have a video from the YouTuber InsidersNetwork and is open for comment discussions where you can help each other out by asking and answering questions.
Pinocchio on the PHC (another great place to get Poptropica help, by the way), who has already played through the new island twice, tells us that you’ll get to manually drive and land a spaceship, have an encounter with a moon rover, and be able to change your eye color (predicted here) and height from tall and small! There’s a lot to explore, so have fun! 🙂
