Big Nate Island, Comics, Sneak Peeks

Big Nate Island Video Sneak Peek and Comic!

Smockers

Yay, another sneak peek! IIRC, this is our second video sneak peek of Big Nate Island! It shows the main street of Big Nate Island. Apparently, Nate follows you around during your journey on Big Nate Island. Um.. stalker much? LOL! Anyways, enough words! Video below!

Also, we receive another funny comic of Big Nate courtesy of the Poptropica Creators’ Blog!

There’s a new advertisement in between places on most islands. It’s advertising a Speak Out on PBS Kids. Clicking on the top of this ad will bring you to this webpage: http://pbskids.org/speakout/. Here’s what it looks like:

There is also a new poll on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog! It asks you what your favorite island is so far. Presumably, Nabooti is winning by a landslide. And good reason, too; it’s a fun and challenging island!

Check out our Nabooti Island guide (made by the wonderful Codien) to learn how to complete it fast and easily! =) The Nabooti Map is now available for viewing!

Lots of news today to inform you all on! First of all, another sneak peek of Nabooti Island has surfaced on the Creators’ Blog. It seems that we need to take pictures of animals as part of our adventure on Nabooti Island. Maybe, when we start Nabooti Island, they give us a camera of sorts to take pictures of different things? Nevertheless, it’s very interesting. 😀 Blog picture directly below these words:

UPDATE: I was partly right! Well, kind of. =P Anyways, with the release of Nabooti Island, we now know that you receive the camera by buying it from a guy on Nabooti Island. Also, you do have to use the camera to complete Nabooti Island, but you can’t use the camera anywhere else. I think.

Speaking of Nabooti Island, they have changed the Nabooti Island sign-thingy (on the Poptropica website) to say “COMING VERY SOON”. Hopefully it might be released this or next week. 😉 They have also changed the Big Nate Island sign to say “COMING EARLY 2009”. At least now we are given more specific release dates! Sign-thingies below:

The final piece of news is that on different islands you can find next to any Main Street a Wal-Mart wishlist making thing. It redirects you to another site when you click. See it below:

Also, we have gotten a new winter-themed header! Pretty spiffy! Thanks Codien! 😀

Astro-Knights Island, Sneak Peeks

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a… bird plane?

Yet another sneak peek of the announced Mechanical/Medieval Island! At least, that’s what I think it’s of. Anyways, depicted in the sneak peek is some sort of majestic, robotic, flaming, missile-firing bird. Looks pretty sleek! I’d like to see this bird in action! Maybe you have to fight it like you did with the villains on Super Power Island. Perhaps it could be like fighting Betty Jetty. Anyways, the blog picture is below:

Again, this sneak peek is kind of going on the theme of mechanical and medieval.

Mechanical = Robot Bird, Missles

Medieval = If you look at the picture carefully, you can kind of see what I mean by when I say it looks medieval.

Don’t forget to check out the post below about the mysterious Mancala coming to Poptropica soon! 😀 There’s also a new Games page: https://poptropica.wordpress.com/games/.

Also, I know for some of you, Thanksgiving is coming soon! The Poptropica Help Blog hopes you all have a happy and joyful Thanksgiving! I for one know that I’m thankful for the guy who invented the Internet because if he wasn’t here, this blog wouldn’t even exist!

Mancala

Hello everyone! It seems that the Poptropica Creators’ Blog has released another sneak peek of Nabooti Island! This time it’s of a new game! For some of you who might play Club Penguin, you’ll recognize this game: Mancala! However, the Creators’ Blog doesn’t clearly define whether or not:

1. If it’s only playable on Nabooti Island

2. If it’s multiplayer

Also, for some reason, people on YouTube are posting comments about how Poptropica “stole” this from Club Penguin. o_o Just a reminder to all: Mancala was not created by Club Penguin. Just wanted to clear that up. =) Anyways, video below:

To finish up, thanks everybody for visting our blog! We reached 130,000 hits! Yay! Party! Free cookies to all! Also, we never announced the milestone of 120k hits! So you get double the cookies! Yay! Thank you guys so much!

Cyborg Jesters and Nabooti Museums!

Three things to report! We get a sneak peek of… a robotic joker? What island could this be a sneak peek of? Reality TV Island? The new mechanical island recently announced? Who knows? Also, if you head over to the Poptropica Creators’ Blog, you might be entertained by the jokes in their post. Blog picture below:

The second sneak peek presented is of the Nabooti Island museum! I predict that this will be Nabooti Island’s equivalent of the Pop Art Museum on Early Poptropica Island. However, I don’t really recognize any sculptures. Hmm. Maybe my theory could be totally wrong and they were just made-up artifacts, but if you recognize any, feel free to comment! =)

Finally, a new poll is on the Creators’ Blog! It questions, “How many stars does your character have?” So far, I am shocked by the results! Apparently, more people have FIVE stars than three stars. o_o Go figure. I personally only have 3 stars. Also, thanks everybody for the overflowing views! I didn’t mention it before, but we have 110k hits! Crispy cookies to you all! =) Keep telling all of your friends who like Poptropica about us! =D
