Hey Poptropicans, pop in for a big blue ad and little sketches! 🌀🖌
A new ad is popping up in the ad spaces between scenes, though not (yet?) on Home Island. Tap into the movie poster for “Blue’s Big City Adventure” — no ad building design this time — to enter a bright city park. Then click on Blue, the dog, to start a game of hide-and-seek.
Run around the park in search of the five items, and for your efforts, you’ll win a Blue Rainbow Follower and Blue Paw Prints. Enjoy! And if you’re interested, this live-action/animated movie based on the show Blue’s Clues is now streaming on Paramount+. 🐶

Speaking of ad spaces between scenes, the one from Amelia’s mini-quest has been popping up outside of visits to Adventure Outfitters. Now, you might also encounter this extra scene while heading off on your blimp to get to the map! Poptropica sure knows how to squeeze in their ad spots… and we’re stuck walking through them. 🙃
Rounding off this update, enjoy the latest fan art features from Poptropica’s Instagram stories full of villain vibes! 💥
Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Dizzy Feather. Enjoy!
Total Bunk: Front door’s locked up tight.
Hello everyone, Dizzy Feather here with the answers to round six of “What’s Missing?”, a Pop puzzle where I obscured items from in-game scenes for you to guess “what’s missing.” If you missed it, play the game on the original post before scrolling down for spoilers!
Shout-out to Smart Icicle for getting the majority correct! Anyway, here are the answers:
Hope you enjoyed this Zomberry Hero edition puzzle! Stay tuned for the next one — it’ll be based on Survival Island, Episode 1!

Surviving the times? Pop Worlds isn’t, but over on this side of Poptropica on Haxe (desktop and mobile), the next installments of Survival Island have just been re-released for both members and the public!
The Haxe map now boasts 3/5 episodes of Survival Island.
Ep. 3: Distress Signal is now on the map and open to members, while Ep. 2: Hook, Line, and Sinker is finally, after six months, open to all. Keep our Survival Island Guide handy if you’re embarking on this adventure!
Thanks to Dizzy Feather and Magic Poptropican for sharing this news!
While this wilderness saga is taking its sweet time to release on Haxe, Survival Island can be played in its entirety via Poptropica on Steam, with all five episodes included in a paid bundle alongside other islands.
Whether you’re a member or not, enjoy the new episode at your fingertips! (Guess we’ll have to wait a bit longer for the hinted Mission Atlantis…) And if in distress, visit our guide to get out of your mess. 😄
Clubhouses began on Poptropica Worlds’ Home Island
But by 2019, with barely any updates and some glitches never quite resolved, Poptropica quietly began to retire the game, first by hiding all links to it from their website. However, as long as you visited poptropica.com/worlds or downloaded the mobile app for iOS or Android devices, which would sync with the desktop game, you could still play it. But as of this week in November 2022, it seems, not anymore.
Scene from Crisis Caverns Island
Now, going to the link will redirect you back on the original Poptropica.com homepage. The app has also been removed from the Apple and Google Play stores, which seems to point to the official end for Poptropica Worlds. We’re sad to see it go! While there’s no archive of the game itself available, you can revisit its legacy through our various blog posts under the Poptropica Worlds category. Rest In Pop, Worlds.
Scene from Greek Sea Odyssey Island
Thanks to Muddy Fly and Dizzy Feather for sharing this news.
While we’re missing Pop Worlds, over on this side of Poptropica, we may soon be seeing the return of one of this year’s free costumes! On the Creators’ Blog, you can cast your vote for which player-designed outfit from the Baron’s Cabin of Curiosities you’d like to see make a comeback next month. Guess that means we won’t be seeing the airship this month, but at least it’ll be back in time for the winter holidays!
On the note of design, check out the latest fan art features from Poptropica’s Instagram stories — red’s a hot color this week! 🔥
