RainbowVision with Shadow Musicians ๐ŸŽธ๐ŸŒˆ

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans, tune in and let’s make some tunes!

Rainbow High is back on Poptropica, but this time instead of a fashion show, the ad for the doll series takes you to the RainbowVision inter-school music competition. You can play for either the Rainbow Divas or the Neon Shadows, but the game is the same: hit the notes when they reach the bottom. Sound up for the rock show jams! ๐ŸŽต๐ŸŽธ

Winning for Rainbow High gets you the Electric Rockstar Outfit, while winning for Shadow High gets you the Neon Shadow Rockstar Outfit. In the main building, right of the center stage, you can also pick up a free Diva Glam Outfit. All three come with extended space bar actions!

PoptropiCon Ep. 3 to return next month ๐Ÿค–

Slanted Fish

Wicked Cool News alert: PoptropiCon Island, Episode 3: Reign of Omegon returns to the map next month, completing the saga! โšก๏ธ

The news comes as Ep. 2: Spoiler Alert was re-released to all players two months ago, giving everyone a chance to explore the epic Poptropica convention and uncover the twist behind the Omegon costume contest.

Download extras including this screensaver from our PoptropiCon Island Guide!

There’s no mention yet about who will be granted access, but if the recent past is an indicator, the episode will probably release for members only first โ€” and hopefully for all eventually.

However, all episodes of PoptropiCon are currently playable in Poptropica’s paid Steam bundle, which also comes with many other newer classic islands. Read our Steam review here!

Onto another villain, Poptropica on Twitter recently put out a Pop poll about Dr. Hare’s species. As lore would have it, perhaps it’s both: Dr. Hare was a scientist who fused into his current form of evil genius rabbit when an experiment on a bunny rabbit went wrong. ๐Ÿฐ

Either way, he’s a longtime beloved icon in the fandom! Check out this fun marker drawing Pop recently retweeted from fan artist @loudcrab:

Stay tuned with us for the re-release of PoptropiCon’s conclusion for Haxe Poptropica, and keep on poppin’ on! ๐Ÿ’ซ

Pop Puzzles: What’s Missing? Round 2 ๐Ÿง

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Dizzy Feather. Enjoy!

A Grave Mystery: Perhaps a new perspective would help.

Hello everyone, Dizzy Feather here with round two of โ€œWhatโ€™s Missing?โ€ To make things a little easier than last time, I’m including a hint and Hangman-style placeholder with each one. Here’s how the game works:

I’ll show you screenshots from Poptropica with a detail covered up, and you try to guess what the missing piece is. Leave your guesses in the comments of this post, and in about a week I’ll share the answers and shout out those who got any of them correct! A couple of rules:

  • No cheating! Don’t go in-game to the area shown to find the answers, and don’t copy someone else’s answers (best not to look before sharing yours). Not only would that be cheating others, but you’ll be taking the fun away from yourself!
  • Have fun! It’s just a game. Don’t pressure yourself to get them all.

Now that we’ve got that down, let’s begin with this Jade Scarab edition puzzle! You may need to click on images to view them in full.

1. Made from water, mud, straw, and cow dung. Would you take a sip from it?
D _ _ _  B _ _ _ _ _
2. A hot spot.
A _ _ _ _ _
3. It’s one of the most famous constellations. 
B _ _   D _ _ _ _ _
4. Enclosed in the glass is something allergic to water.
L _ _ _ _ _ _
5. A classic bath toy. 
B _ _ _  R _ _ _ _ _  D _ _ _ _
6. It lights the way.
W _ _ _  T _ _ _ _ 
7. You get this when you buy something.
R _ _ _ _ _ _ _
8. Slanted…
F _ _ _ 
9. You launched this into space on another island.
D _. H _ _ _’ _  R _ _ _ _ _
10. A villain on vacation.
R _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 

So what’s missing? Share your guesses in the comments below, and be sure to check back next week to see how many you got right! Have fun!

Hope you enjoyed this guest post by Dizzy Feather. If you did, you might also enjoy her clubhouse tour, or a similar puzzle series from the PHB, Stolen Snapshots, featuring scenes from classic islands.
