Bonus Items, Membership, Wimpy Boardwalk Island

Vacation’s Almost Over?

MT

Remember those limited edition costumes that members received during the early access release of Wimpy Boardwalk?

They looked something like that? Well with early access coming to an end, this is both a good and bad thing. Good because the non-members were becoming impatient and bad because these rare gold cards will disappear! So if you’d like to cop these cool items before they’re gone, go get membership so Poptropica can pay their bills! But just look at those gold cards.. I mean, who wouldn’t want them?

This was just a friendly little warning, Poptropicans! Wimpy Boardwalk will be released this Thursday! About time, right?

Lunar Colony Island, New Islands

238,900 Miles Away From Home

Icy Comet

The next island has been announced!  And, like you’ve probably guessed from the picture above, the island is going to be called Lunar Colony.  Looks like this is the space-themed island we’ve all been waiting for!

So I’m guessing from the trailer that the Poptropican in the space ship is either you or another Poptropican.  (I know, brilliant deduction, right?)  Maybe they were flying around in space, got hit by a meteor, and then crash landed on the moon.  And…maybe you have to go out and find them…and when you find them they’ve started a one-man colony on the moon… 

Or!  Or, they could have a bunch of passengers in the ship and they are going on a mission to start a colony on the moon cause Poptropica’s become too polluted…  Like in the Disney movie Wall•E, except they’re not living in a spaceship they’re living on the moon…

I don’t know… All of my ideas sound pretty bad.  Anybody have any other ideas?

Free Makes Everything Better

The Creators have announced that the Twisted Thicket Guide is now on the Poptropica Tips and Tricks app. If you’ve downloaded the app, make sure to update it and receive the Twisted Thicket Guide for free. Not only will you now have the Twisted Thicket Guide, but the rest of the island guides will also be free. They previously cost 99 cents each.

To download this app, you must have an iOS or Android device. Then, go to either the iTunes store or Android Market, depending on what your device is, and get it.

But remember, these aren’t the only guides for Poptropica Islands! Check out the Island Help page for help with any of the islands, as we have all guides up. If you also find the guides in the app are explanatory aren’t enough, we hope ours will be!

A look behind the scenes.

Green Boa

The creators have released a few pictures of the ‘behind the scenes’ work behind the release of Wimpy Boardwalk. Such as this one, where Jeff Kinney, Poptropica creator and Diary of a Wimpy Kid author, gives some advice to some of the Poptropica designers.

From this picture, we can tell two things. (Well, I can anyway. You may be able to find more.)

  1. It takes a LOT of designers to make a Wimpy Kid island.
  2. The designers are able to decorate their station with toys, posters, and other cool stuff!

So when you play a new island, just spare a thought for the people who have worked hard to make Poptropica the best it can be! 😀

There is probably a great deal of relief and satisfaction (and maybe a little partying) when a new island is released. Look at these lovely, big smiles!

Say cheese!

Gorgeous.

Members can play Wimpy Boardwalk now. On the 18th of July it will be released to non-members. Remember, if you get stuck, you can always refer to our Wimpy Boardwalk guide! (Credit going to Shaggy Tornado, Super Thunder, Clean Shark, MT, and Slanted Fish!)

Cya guys!

Wimpy Boardwalk Island

I want the high score, so I gotta play more!

Slanted Fish

What’s your Thunder Volt high score? Members can play this retro shooter video game as the bonus quest at the end of Wimpy Boardwalk Island. It looks like even Friendly Bug wasn’t able to beat Greg’s high score of 10 million… and that makes him/her an idiot, according to this high scores list!

Having trouble with this arcade game? Our PHB Wimpy Boardwalk guide has tips and instructions on how to beat the game, so give it a try! Do you have what it takes to put Greg out of his shame?
