My Little Art Features ๐Ÿด

Howdy Poptropicans, it’s LJ here with a bit of news for you today. Let’s pop into it!

Over on the Poptropica IG, the creators shared some stories which include a recent TikTok (which hit 200K+ plays) and a couple of fanarts โ€” one by yours truly and one by Barefoot Knuckle (check out her feature in our Pop Fan Artist Spotlights!).


On the game itself, a sparkly new ad has emerged on the third page of the map for the upcoming My Little Pony: A New Generation movie! Go inside and talk to either Izzy or Sunny to start the race.

The game is pretty simple: all you have to do is jump over obstacles by clicking your mouse without losing your six lives. (Tip: you can double click to jump higher if you need to!)

Once you finish, you’ll win Sunny and Pipp (misspelled as ‘Pip’, grr) followers as well as a stellar Izzy outfit.

Dang, I think I look pretty gorgeous if I do say so myself. ๐Ÿ˜ Anyway, the kickstarter film for MLP g5 premieres on Netflix in just over two weeks on Sept 24! Will you be watching? I definitely will. โœจ

Thank you all for reading, friends. I’ll talk to you soon as I have something to address. Until then, pop on!

Jivin’ with JoJo at Clean Sun’s Clubhouse ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿก

What’s up, Poptropicans! We’ll be checking out a sweet clubhouse along with the latest ad that has players moving to the music. Let’s go!

A new ad spot arrived advertising JoJo Siwa’s movie: The J Team. You can find this particular ad on the map or on various islands. The ad spot features Ruby D and Jojo Siwa herself, though it would be funny if the Creators reused BopBop‘s design for JoJo. While it appears to be a simple video ad at first glance, watching the trailer takes you to a JoJo-themed ad game.

This is a simple memory game. JoJo will perform some dance moves, then you need to repeat the moves in the correct order. Each playthrough will randomize the order of moves, so pay attention to what JoJo does on the screen.

Successfully repeating the routine rewards you with a JoJo Siwa outfit and a Sparkle Mic. If you press the spacebar while holding the mic, you can perform a song and dance routine under a blue spotlight. ๐ŸŽค๐ŸŽถ


A few days ago, the Creators released the second installment of the new Clubhouse Crawl series. This week’s randomly chosen interior decorator is Clean Sun, who decked their virtual home with exotic wildlife and tasty desserts. This Instagram video gives us a quick glimpse into Clean Sun’s clubhouse, but you can read the full tour on the Creators’ Blog.

That’s all for now, although there hasn’t been any news regarding the September member gifts. Where are they, Creators? Please let us know. ๐Ÿฅบ

Anyway, we hope you all liked this Poptropica news flash. Thank you for reading, and have a good day!

POP it in the oven and bake it off ๐ŸŽ‚

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Dangerous DragonEnjoy!

Hi Poptropicans, DD here with the new Pop advertisement! Itโ€™s for an upcoming Disney reality TV show called Magic Bake-Off. Head there through the map or the ad building.

Once you enter, youโ€™ll be paired up with a team to bake a cake, facing off against another team. There are two rounds.

Let’s get baking! The instructions for round one will pop-up. Follow the steps, and soon the cake will be ready to bake in the oven.

Then comes the second round. Again, follow the instructions, and your cake will be done and decorated. Thatโ€™s your cake!

For your efforts, you’ll win two prizes, a Sprinkles Cannon and Icing Blaster. Here’s me modeling the giant sprinkle gun.

Thatโ€™s the end! I wonder… is this the real recipe they use in the Disney show? Thatโ€™s it for today, now you try it!

Keep Poppin,

DD ๐Ÿ’œ

Vivo la tribal, or at least an outline ๐ŸŠ

Hey Poptropicans! In this post, we’ve got another ad game, another challenge, and another guest post. Poptropica’s certainly been busy!

Let’s start off with the big green tree base on Home Island promoting the upcoming Netflix animated film Vivo. Head inside and you’ll find it’s even prettier within! You can also talk to the animals to start a game.

The goal of the mini-game is to make your way through the Cuban rainforest to reach the Sand Dollars girlband before time runs out. Along the way, you’ll have to dodge flies, crocs, and even a giant snake.

You’ll win two prizes at the end: Gabi’s Stylin’ Outfit (with a drum animation) and a Head Rider of Vivo, a kinkajou (honey bear).

Between Vivo and Kamp Koral Island 2, it’s cool to see Poptropica pulling in their ad dollars in more creative ways again. Let’s hope we’re on our way to getting rid of those pesky sidebar adsโ€”and while we’re wishing, how about the return of bigger game screens?

Vivo releases on Netflix in two weeks on August 6, with songs by the legendary Lin-Manuel Miranda (of Hamilton fame). Stay tuned!


Next up, another official artsy challenge! While the past few weeks and months have seen fan art, fan fic, and costume design contests, the new Coloring Creation Challenge asks Poptropicans to create their own Pop-themed coloring page! The idea is to create an outline drawing (with black or blue marker) on a white page that can be colored in, like so:

To enter the challenge, snap a pic of your design and drop it into Poptropica’s submissions form no later than 8 p.m. PST on Monday, July 26. Doodle on!


Last but not least, there’s a new guest post on the Creators’ Blog by Invisible Ring on the gone-but-not-forgotten Tribes of Poptropica. As she explains, tribes were teams you could join in the Poptropolis Games and rep on your friends page or with custom hats you could make in the Twin Palms Mall of Night Watch Island. Plus, each tribe had their own themed common room!

You can learn more over on the PHB’s Tribes page as well as the individual tribe pages linked there (thanks for the blog shout-out, Ring!).

Here on the PHB, we’ve enjoyed even more tribal fun with our 2016 and 2020 Tribal Tournaments, and we even host a series of epic “Tribal Tailorings” in our ASG collection. Here’s hoping for the return of the eight epic tribes!

That’s a wrap for this post. What did you think of the Vivo ad game, and will you be streaming this release? What ideas are brewing in your head for the Coloring Creations Challenge? And which tribe rules them all? Share with us in the comments, and stay popping!

Dรฉjร  vu, it’s Kamp Koral Island 2 ๐Ÿงฝ

Hey Poptropicans, remember Kamp Koral Island? It’s back!

Poptropica’s third SpongeBob Island comes with three limited time items which you can win from playing the various mini-games.

The first thing you’ll see on Kamp Koral Island 2 is SpongeBob standing by a house marked Obstacle Course and surrounded by balloons. Getting the game to activate was a real obstacle for me, but fortunately, Ammonite provided some pics. At the end of this sea-legged race, youโ€™ll win Planktonโ€™s Helicopter Pack.

The fun continues at the next house over, marked Jellyfish Meadows. This is the exact same game from last time โ€” collect all the jellyfish before time runs out โ€” though the prize is different. You’ll win a Wacky Pool Noodle, which has a thrust action accompanied by SpongeBob’s hilariously creepy laugh!

Nearby, talk to Plankton and he’ll tell you that SpongeBob borrowed his chips. Follow the chip trail up to the lookout at the top and pick up your very own purple Chip Bag! (Tap the space bar to take a bite.)

That’s all for the prizes, but there are a few more activities left on the island! Like the previous SpongeBob Islands, you can play three head-to-head arcade games: High Dive (Sky Dive), Star Link, and Bubble-loons (Balloons), all styled with SpongeBob graphics. Also like last time, you can pull a lever to make jellyfish rain.

While it may be too late for this iteration of Kamp Koral to make it to the 2021 Poppies, there’s still time left to vote for the “Okay-est Ad Island” and other fan awards. Be sure to cast your votes before the poll closes this Thursday, and join us this Saturday for a poppin’ party (that’s got the Creators’ seal of approval) to hear the winners announced live! ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ
