Well, it’s definitely a more creative title than “Hands up!” because YOU could be the next marshal with the new Wild West-themed costumes in the Poptropica Store!


Or if you’re a rebel, there are costumes for those against the law too. Mind you, they’re all a tad bit more expensive than the rest: the new getups are 100 credits each.

  • Boys: Lawman (bottom left) and Outlaw (bottom right)

So, get in on the gun-shooting action and get yourself one of these spiffy new suits!

Okay, so you’re stuck on Poptropica’s Wimpy Wonderland, which just came out for non-members this Thursday (thank you 20th Century Fox!). Call yourself a wimp for trying to look up the cheats to this island quest, but that’s completely okay with us. In fact, we’ve got just what you need.

  • Wimpy Wonderland resources are listed under our Island Help page
  • A written walkthrough by Fearless Cheetah is available if you click here
  • A video walkthrough by YouTuber Graser10 is available via this playlist on Poptropica Help Videos
  • A map of the island can help you find where you are and need to be!
  • We have a discussion page for Wimpy Wonderland if you have more specific questions or would like to help answer others!
I thought snowmen were supposed to have charcoal for eyes.

So just remember, it’s okay to look up a few things if you need to. You’ll find much more joy in being able to handle the game yourself, but if you’re not sure at some parts, you’re always welcome to use our resources. Have fun walking in the snow of Wimpy Wonderland, and best of luck with finding the missing Manny!

Jeff Kinney, the writer behind the best-selling ‘Wimpy Kid’ series, doesn’t have to work again in his life, but the thrill of influencing 10 million kids per month at Poptropica.com keeps him working.

In other news, there have been reports that many handheld items on Poptropica are now Costumizable. Can’t guarantee this for all cases, but check it out while it lasts!

Walking in a Wimpy Wonderland

It’s as clear as black-and-white (literally!): Wimpy Wonderland is the next Poptropica island!

Here’s the island description from the official info page:

The kids in town are enjoying a snow day – all except for Greg Heffley, whose little brother Manny has gone missing! It’s up to you to find Manny, but before you do, you’ll have to contend with surly teenagers, crabby senior citizens, and those rotten Whirley Street kids. Join Greg, Rowley, Rodrick, and the rest of the Wimpy Kid characters for a snow-capped adventure you’ll never forget!

We also have our own WW island page here and it is also listed on our Island Help. Note that there are more Wimpy sneak peeks from the Daily Pop if you’re interested – the black-and-white ones.

Right now you can log in to Poptropica for a sneak preview of the upcoming adventure and talk to some of the characters, including Greg Heffley and weirdo Fregley (“Wanna see my secret freckle?” xD). You can also chase Greg’s little brother Manny up a tree, but if you try to enter any buildings, it will tell you to come back in mid-March. That’s right, Poptropica members get to play this island this month!

For those who didn’t know: Jeff Kinney is the creator of Poptropica, and also the author of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid book/movie series, which this island is based on. So this is pretty cool, since everyone loves DOAWK, right? 😀 (shame on you if you don’t. :c)
