MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! 😀

Another new island? But they just released Ghost Story! 😮 Well, then, here’s the new island! All those pictures on the Daily Pop is from this one! Looks like it’s called…

When a whale-watching expedition strikes an iceberg, a pleasure cruise becomes a disaster scene. As the ship sinks deeper and deeper into the frigid waters of the North Atlantic, can you rescue everyone onboard before it’s too late?

SOS Island looks like it’s Titanic based. In the 1900’s the makers boasted that the Titanic was unsinkable. While on a voyage, they struck an iceberg and sank. Many people died in this tradegy.

Now the title is based of an Owl City song, which was written because of the Titanic tragedy. Listen to it on Youtube! 🙂

But here’s YOUR chance to “rewrite” history! Save the whale watchers! 😀 Available soon with membership!

View the official island info page here and the PHB’s discussion page here!

Two new items are in store! The *Elf Costume and the Candy Cane-on!

The Elf Costume is like those costumes from the old times! Best part is it’s free for all! 😀

This gold card is an epic snowball shooter! If you want a snowball fight, this is your weapon of choice! 😛

Price: 150 credits

Ghost Story Island

Ghost Hunting or Scavenger Hunting?

Shaggy Tornado

IT’S MY 50th POST! YEY! 😀

*confetti shoots out of cannon*

I personally would prefer scavenger hunting. Because Scavenger Hunt #4 is out! 😀 Clues below.

W _ _ _  1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 _ _

The bolded words in the last 2 clues are your key to figuring out the code! The first word is common sense 😛 If you can’t figure it out… (west123starave33c) Well anyways, the prize is your very own Wacky Hair! Pic below (Thanks IB!)

Ghost Story is out, and in case you havent heard, it has sound! When you get a violin to play music, sound is there. Also, at the telescope, a woman says, “Are you looking for someone?” It scared me half out of my wits and excited me at the same time. XD The demo ends for non-members when you get the ghost hunting equipment from Jane the Baker. 😉

Have fun playing Ghost Story and figuring out the Scavenger Hunt! 🙂

Ghost Story Island

Now out!

It’s EP here, and this is a quick yet sweet and short post/announcement. GHOST STORY ISLAND IS NOW OUT! Members can play the full version of this spooky island whilst non-members can play a partial version of it just to get a taste of what it’s like!

Here’s the trailer they once again posted:

And finally, new changes are coming through the air of Poptropica. It seems to happen a few times each year. The creators have perhaps refurnished graphic effects and overall look and feel of the game. A new post has an image detailing these “changes”:

Well, they’ve added a bit of detail as it appears to me. If you look carefully at the building blocks there are detailed textures on them. They also added shadows and clouds apparently.

How many new things can you spot?

So, what are you waiting for? Go out there and go hunt some ghosts!
