Red Dragon Island

Never Say No to a Panda

Otherwise, the panda’ll destroy stuff. Or at least that’s what I know from Egyptian commercials. As a girl on the east coast of the US, don’t judge me for not knowing anything about pandas besides what I see in the media.

Is there ever a bad time for pandas?

A little over a year ago, we released an Island in cooperation with our friends at Magic Tree House. It’s called Red Dragon Island, and if you haven’t played it, you’re missing out on a thrilling adventure through old Japan with Jack and Annie, the heroes of the Magic Tree House series.(Oh, and you also get to master a bunch of awesome ninja skills like climbing up walls and using a grappling hook.)

Whether you’ve been through Red Dragon Island before or not, now’s a great time to head back. Not just because it’s a great adventure, but because the Magic Tree House store has been updated with the latest, greatest books from the series. Head on over to Poptropica and visit Red Dragon Island to get the scoop on A Perfect Time for Pandas, and its accompanying Fact Tracker, Pandas and Other Endangered Species.

And then find the ninja master and get to work!

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

Bossy, aren’t you, Captain Crawfish, there? Well, how about you take this Panda cheese and it’ll make you understand.

😐 I’d take it if I were you. Now. Please. D:

Anyways, um… yeah… books… and stuff… I swear that panda is freaking me out… o.o *grabs three cartons of Panda cheese* I gotta go, BT out!

*runs away, screaming “DON’T DESTROY ANYTHING!!”*

Crud, too late. o,o

Daily Pop, Sneak Peeks, Wimpy Boardwalk Island

Challenge Accepted

With Wimpy Boardwalk (PHB guide here) as Poptropica’s 28th island, the challenge is on to collect them all (island medallions, that is)! Have you completed all the islands? How many medallions do you have? And which islands did you enjoy the most? 🙂

Ooh, shiny!

Speaking of islands, what do you think of the recent Daily Pop sneak peeks? It looks like there may be some interesting musical/space exploration in the future! These two pics below suggest there’s some old photos for the memories at PASE, which is the Poptropica Academy for Space Exploration, a parody of NASA.

What are your thoughts on this? 😀

Also, thanks to MT for the new Twisted Thicket themed PHB header!

Wimpy Boardwalk Island

They Know Around The Boardwalk

Hola, Poptropicans! With the recent release of the Summer-anticipated island, Wimpy Boardwalk, members got to experience it first hand. And the Creators exposed the first ten players who figured out the Boardwalk first. The island could be pretty tough to figure out independently without a guide (just a little warning for the non-members waiting for it)! And so if you hit a brick wall, you could always turn to the official PHB guide or video playlist! And here goes the list. Congratulations to..

Wimpy Boardwalk Island

Summer “Board”om?

Then “Walk” on over to Wimpy Boardwalk, because it is OUT…for members. (I’m bad at jokes huh? Points for effort? 😀 )

There is a demo out for non-members though. Once you land on the Boardwalk, talk to Greg. He’ll tell you how the game he’s playing, Himalayan Hurl is rigged. When he takes out his money, it flies away into the hands of two teenagers who run off with it. Follow Greg as he runs after them. Catch up with him at the Boardwalk Arcade and says the teens disappeared somewhere. Go right to the beach and talk to the guy selling Souvenir keychain photos. Tell him you don’t have any money and he’ll let you take a photo for free. (You get a photo for your photo album once you complete this action).  He gives you sunblock, which you’ll be able to use for this guy once the full island releases.

While you’re there, you’ll see a seagull carrying a keychain! Jump onto the trash can and when  the seagull passes over you, jump and get the keychain. See a striking resemblance to the guy with the metal detector? You can give it to him when the full island releases. Meanwhile, go back to the Boardwalk arcade and see Greg tell you that the kids are underneath the boardwalk taunting you with the money, like so:

If you try to go underneath the boardwalk, they run away with the money. So you’ll have to find a way to get the money without them running away. CUE END OF DEMO if you go to the beach or the Boardwalk Rides. But this place will play a role in your quest:

(Creds to Super Thunder for pics! 😉 )

Wimpy Boardwalk Trivia!

1) There is a handheld laser gun in the common room! But you don’t get to keep it 😦 *sigh*

2) Your character gets  to wear SHOES!

3) This is the first time the Creators’ have released an island out of the blue without a countdown.

~~~

The island will be released to everyone on July 18! At least it’s a shorter wait! 🙂

Happy 4th of July for those in the US! And Happy Wednesday for those that aren’t!

Poptropolis Games Island, Snapshot Series

There Can Be Only One Winner…

Ha! Bet you thought I was talking about Poptropolis Games, huh?

😀

Well, I’m not. You see, humans tend to have self-centered thoughts at times. This is no exception for Shark Boy. For example, if someone were to declare him “Best Shark”…

Well, I bet he’s thrilled. He made a whole post about it, just to get the point across. According to Shark Boy, “I’d like to thank the little people.”

Did anyone happen to notice that Shark Boy is, ah, smiling? Yes, smiling! Well, anyone would be smiling if they won a contest. Do you think Shark Boy is the best shark, or do you think there’s a better shark in town, uh, Poptropica?

And, if you are having trouble with Poptropolis Games, and you fear that the one winner can’t be you, remember to check out our Island Help. There, you can find the Poptropolis Games Guide (or click HERE) written by PHB author Icy Comet and you can be the one and only champion! Just keep in mind that there’s no tribe like Pathfinders. 😉
