Happy fishing

Slanted Fish

Remember the SOS Island Members-only gear pack in the Poptropica Store that comes with awesome stuff like the sonar power?

Our favorite sea captain, Crawfish himself, wants to let you know that you can find the gear in your “Store Items” inventory… at the end of the line. He signs off with “happy fishing!”

Thanks CC, we’ll be sure to go fishing for crawfish! Mmmm.

In other news, Loud Shark has created a video tutorial for a new ad game in Poptropica called “Monster High Sweet 1600”! Check it out:

The prizes are Draculaura’s dress and a Count Fabulous follower.

Happy Super Bowl Sunday! 😀

Ghost Story Island

Lights please.

Slanted Fish

Dim the lights; here we go…

Following the release of Ghost Story Island, the members of Poptropica are now faced with a new challenge, with new items, stories, and excitement! Those who are need it can now use the PHB for help, because our Ghost Story Island Info page has just been updated with a written Guide with pictures by Brave Tomato, as well as a Video playlist on our Poptropica Help Videos page.

However, some of the brightest players have already beat the rest to the finish line, and here they are… the first ten finishers of the ghostly island quest have been revealed. Congrats to:

1. Shiny Star
2. Mighty Coyote
3. Golden Lightning
4. Thirsty Sky
5. Grumpy Icicle
6. Shaky Raptor
7. Lone Wolf
8. Fearless Tornado
9. Brave Berry
10. Super Bean

Among the list, we see Grumpy Icicle (Xalevoid) at #5, a PHB reader who has been known for making it to the top ten finishers list for several islands! Congratulations once again to this brave quester and everybody else. 🙂

Most ghosts from the coast boast.

But check the post if you’re the host because you should serve roast.

And all Captain Crawfish from the PCB left us was this sneak peek with the caption, “Things are about to get very spooky on Poptropica!”

Well, that’s not much to contemplate… but what do you think this means?

I think it’s time to roast some crawfish and give it to the ghost.

Up for some adventure? Check out the new Ben 10/Generator Rex advertisement game on Poptropica. Here’s a video from Loud Shark:

Don’t forget, if you need help, that’s what this website is here for! Check out the latest resources:

Have a nice weekend! 🙂

Bonus Items, Membership, Store

There’s Free… and then there’s Free+.

Slanted Fish

You probably already know that the Poptropica Store includes some free stuff you can claim. But now there’s more, and it’s called Free+. Let the Creators’ Blog explain:

Free+

You might have noticed a new icon on some of the items in the Poptropica Store.

What is Free+? Free+ means that the item is free for everybody who wants it, and also has some extra-special features for Members. When you play “Shrink Shot” or “Prepare for Impact,” for example, you’ll get additional powers and prizes if you’re a Member.

So, kinda cool for the members, not so much for everyone else. 😛 But still, it’s nice to have free stuff, and when an item is labeled Free+, it just means that Poptropica Members will get extra features or prizes. Nice.

In other news, Legendary Swords releases on tomorrow’s legendary date – 11/11/11! That’s not gonna happen for another thousand years. It would be pretty epic to release on 11:11am/pm, too. Plus, if it’s your 11th birthday that day, kudos! I myself will be 15 on the 15th, so that’s awesome too. xD
