Poptropica is filled with a variety of islands, each one unique with its own stories and characters. Explore island tips, trivia, and other extras through our blog archives!
What’s your opinion of caves? Creepy? Scary? Beautiful? If you think caves are creepy or scary, then you better stay away from this one! Captain Crawfish gives us the details on this
Take a look at this creepy cave entrance. What do you suppose lives in there?
Dare you to go in first!
No, I DARE YOU Cptn. Crawfish! I DARE YOU! XD Incidentally, when I saw this post, I immediately thought of the title, and the song was playing on the stereo. 😛 Coincidence?
Also, rumors are swirling around that the Creators’ have been posting about Cryptids Island on the homepage again, but it always disappears. In the comments of CW’s post, people are saying that they saw Cryptids Island logo on the homepage at about 9:00. If you can stay up late, try to spot that logo! Good luck!

Last week we posted about a sign that read “Cryptids Island Coming Soon” that appeared for a while on the Poptropica homepage, but mysteriously disappeared. Loud Shark even took a picture for us. But now the Poptropica Creators are trying to mess with our minds!
The creators must have found our secret database. They are stating accusations! Captain Crawfish addressed this issue on the PCB today, saying:
There are rumors that a new Poptropica Island was announced on the Poptropica homepage last week, only to disappear. Like some kind of mythical beast vanishing into the fog, it was there one minute, and gone the next.
Eyewitness accounts can be unreliable. Scientists have yet to prove the existence of the next Poptropica Island. The whole thing could be a hoax.
Did you see it? Was it real? Was the next Poptropica Island truly revealed?
The truth is out there.
CAPTAIN CRAWFISH
The truth. It’s out there. WE MUST BE ONTO SOMETHING. I mean, the picture proves the rumor true, doesn’t it? What are the Creators trying to pull? Do you think they might be causing doubt among us because they’re having second thoughts about Cryptids Island, or is this all one big joke? :O
If you visit your inventory, you may notice that your island medallions have more than just the “Put On” button – a new “Replay Island” button was added to every medallion card! When you click on it, it will ask you to confirm whether you really do want to lose all your items and progress for the island.
Unfortunately, nothing happened when I clicked “Yes.” Maybe they’re working on it, but this could be a cool feature we can be looking forward to! (thanks, Blueshield)
Update: The Replay button is gone! 😮
Also, here’s a sneak peek of the next Poptropica island:
Not exactly the mightiest castle out there. What’s up with the bucket attached to a flagpole by roof? Construction of this fortress in the fog looks only half-finished. What do you think might be involved in this one?
According to reader Maximum Ride, the flag is Scotland’s. Could this have anything to do with the “French” island sneak peeks from before? Maybe we’re not just getting a France-like island, maybe it’s Europe-themed! Who knows. 😛
Justly named Furry Monsters 1-4 (see above pic; 1-4 are in order left to right), these new [and so far, unannounced] releases to the Poptropica Store mean you can now get what used to be ultra-rare leaked costume parts (wings, horns, fur bodies) for only 75 credits per costume! Here’s what they say:
Furry Monster 1: “Monster is the new black.”
Furry Monster 2: “Don’t hate me because I’m spooky.”
Furry Monster 3: “Be a hit at the next monster bash!”
Furry Monster 4: “Guaranteed to shock and frighten!”
And apparently, the available furry monsters are actually different by your gender! So there’s actually more of a variety available, and the good news is, they’re all AWESOME!
Girl mon-STARS! xDMonster madness for the boys!
These creatures resemble the leaked costumes of “Monster Carnival Island”, the unreleased island that appeared on the Poptropica Map in early 2008 and mysteriously never went live. (Instead, as older players may recall, it was replaced by 24 Carrot.) As far as the Creators are showing us, they probably won’t be releasing this Monster Carnival Island.
For reference: The Poptropica Help Blog has given away 13 of these epic monster-type costumes back when they were unobtainable. You can read all about our PHB 1 Million Monster Competition by clicking here.
So these monster costumes aren’t very rare any more, now that anyone can obtain them… but they’re still cool! Don’t you just love those critter bits? 😀
What do you think of being able to easily access what were once known as ultra-rare Poptropica clothing?
Ad building news according to Sunset1624: “There’s also a new ad for girls (I found it on my 12 year old account) called Barbie Girls Halloween Bash. You help Barbie pick out a good costume for the party, and when you pick out a costume she likes (it could be any) you get a cat costume for yourself and you get to go to the Halloween party. You can’t costumize any of the good costumes though. The only costumes you can costumize are the costumes of the same people from the Haunted House.”
In other rather drastic news, we recently lost our Twitter account, @PoptropicaHelp, which was deactivated by a hacker. As a result, our Poptropica Help Tweets service will be continuing on a new account: @Poptropica_Help. Since we have lost our Twitter followers in this process, we would greatly appreciate your support if those of you who use Twitter would follow us. Thank you.
