Photo Booth for Mystery of the Map!

Hey everyone, Spotted Dragon here with another Poptropica update! Twoย posts in one week from SD? What??? Yeah yeah, anyway…

Getting straight to the point, a Mystery of the Map themedย Photo Booth has appearedย onย Home Island! Thanks to Slippery Raptor for the pictures. ๐Ÿ˜› In case you’re wondering why MotM, it’s because the first installment of the graphic novel is coming on March 1st and you can pre-order it now! ๐Ÿ™‚

A whole new set of backgrounds are included…ย as well as many characters that can join you in your photo! Sadly, Octavian is missing. (If you’re interested, you can click to view the full images.)

But that’s not all! If you visit the Photo Booth now, you will also be greeted with a wide variety of new props! From beach to throne room to Viking fort to dining hall, there’s lots to choose from. ๐Ÿ˜€

You can pre-order the Mystery of the Map book now almost anywhere books are sold!

Okay, quittingย that advertisement voice… *cough* That’s all for now guys! Keep checking in for more Poptropica updates. ๐Ÿ˜‰

hey hey hey

Hey everyone, Spotted Dragon here! Did you like all that alliteration in the title? Eh, I tried. ๐Ÿ˜›

Anyway, there are just a few Poptropica updates that you should know about! First off, when you log inย to Poptropica you will be greeted by two cool prizes.ย One of those prizes is a Charlie Brown Shirt and the other is the Pig Pen Power prize (which also just gives you the costume shown on the card, including the dust).

In other news, the Photo Booth has finally been updated for the desktop version of Poptropica! It now includes the Valentine’s Day items and props mentioned in a previous postย that first appeared on the app.

Well, I hope you all have a great Valentine’s Day weekend whether you’re taken and not mistaken or just single and ready to mingle. ๐Ÿ˜‰

P.S. Be sure to check out Part 1 ofย Blake’s Valentine’s Day Special! So far, both Sam and I have been shipped with a cactus… who knows what will happen next? ๐Ÿ˜€ Stay tuned for Part 2 coming on Valentine’s Day!

February is already here! Deadpool and Valentine’s Day are coming too! Speaking of Valentine’s day, looks like we guessed it right, Poptropica has a brand new Valentine’s Day-themed booth and is now available in the Poptropica app!

Once you open the photo booth, Poptropica gives you a heart-warming card greeting! (Aw, we love you berry much Poptropica!)

Moving along, there are new Valentines related props, backgrounds and characters on the app! This includes the Heart, Cupid, some UFOs, candy hearts and teddy bears! Check them out in the gallery below.ย Don’t worry guys, it’ll be added to the desktop version and KindleFire version next week!

On the other hand, Poptropica also released the promotional website for the Mystery of the Map graphic novel (coming 3/1) and features a slide and video about it!

You may have also seen theย new advertisement in Home Island regarding the graphic novel, which also directs to the site above. Are you excited for the graphic novel?

Speaking of Poptropica, did you know that they have a giant Back Lot poster in their Headquarters? You can also have one here! (This was posted on their Facebook page and Instagram account.)

Hey guys, my name is Brave Tomato and here’s my first update post since… Pelican Rock was revealed to be surprise-released later that day… okay, sorry I haven’t posted much. Being a senior in high school is fun.

Well back to the point of the post. As of Tuesday, the Photo Booth is now available on the iOS Poptropica app! Now, anywhere you can get decent reception in the world, you can put your mobile characters and other well known characters on a screen together making up poses, props, and all sorts of hijinks.ย Sorry, the update is not available forย Amazon and Android users yet, but it will be soon!

In other news, something interesting had been found in the past two Daily Pops:

… And all of a sudden I feel like a bunch of eyes are looking right at me through the computer screen. Don’t worry, the “Olympus has Risen” one is not what you think, evidenced by the next day’s “Bloon” Daily Pop. This feels like it would be an updated version of an Island Tour video or clip or whatever, giving close-ups of island icons and such. There are comparisons to storyboards not too unlike when they were preparing the Shark Tooth animation. (Speaking of which, what happened to Poptropica TV?)

Finally, the Creators are using their social media connections to create a different kind of advertising – for Kung Fu Panda 3. Players are encouraged to go into the Home Island arcade (common room) wearing theย Baby Pandas headpiece,ย and Pop Creator Skinny Moon will be grabbing screenshots and posting them on Poptropica’s social media. Here’s a tweet with several of the pics she took:

You can find more pics like this on Poptropica’s Twitter feedย now, and keep an eye there for if/when Skinny Moon announces when she’ll be in the common room! If you’d like to get in on the action, just know she’s been practicing her head-to-head gaming and has so farย achieved a 2-star battle ranking.

So that’s just about what’s new in Poptropica! Smile with those cubs for the camera, snap a Photo Booth pic, and get ready to see another new perspective on the world of Poptropica!

BT out!ย 

Escape from Pelican Rock Island, Photo Booth, Reality TV Island

Photo Booth Mugshots now a Reality

Attention allย Poptropican prisoners โ€“

This is not a drill. (It’s actually a hammer! ๐Ÿ”จ )

If you are a prisoner of Pelican Rock, promptly make your way to the newย Photo Boothย atย the Main Street preview of Escape From Pelican Rock Island, whichย comes withย new prison-themed templates, characters, backgrounds, and props. Try not to smile when your mugshot is being taken.

You will meet a host of other characters at our high-tech photo station, including the Booted Bandit, Big Tuna, Florian Fosbury, Patches, Ratchet, Tex Brannigan, Warden Sharp, and Escapee. Who are these people and why do they exist as both male and female?ย Stop asking so many questions, prisoner!

(You may have noticed in the EFPR Island preview that the NPCs’ย genders are the same as your character’s, and it looks like this may continue in the rest of the island as well considering the Photo Booth characters. Check out this Daily Pop from last month for more!)

Lineup: That’s him, third from the left.

Poptropica also tweeted outย another batch of early sketches of Reality TV Island characters.ย Here’s both the new one and the one they shared earlier (click to enlarge images):

Speaking of Reality TV Island, congratulations to Quick Dragon for being the first resident of the small Pacific Island nation ofย Vanuatu to place on the map (#1,817 worldwide), earning a shoutout on the Creators’ Blog! Beat the island today and you too can have a spot on the map.
