The top stop for all things Pop
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!
Hey everyone! My assumption was right: the Creators will be alternating episodes! Mission Atlantis: Episode 1 (“Into the Deep”) will come out on April 17, 2014 to members!
Non-members, there’s nothing to frown about because Survival: Episode 1 (guide here) will come out on April 17, 2014 to everyone! Anyway, I’ll try to get a guide up as soon as I can. Cya later!

Hey everyone! The Creators just released the tour page for the next island, Mission Atlantis! Like Survival Island, it’s going to be split into episodes. If you haven’t yet seen the video trailer which was released last week, check out BT’s post. Also, check out the PHB’s Atlantis Island trivia page!
Anyway, let’s get to the good stuff! 😛 On the new official tour page, you can view and download the Printable Poster and Desktop Wallpaper for Mission Atlantis:
Now we divert our eyes to the bottom of the sea where we see the description and the members’ items!
It’s a different world under the sea… but the ancient secret at the bottom of the ocean is beyond your wildest dreams.
I wonder what’s so different under the sea? OH YEAH! Atlantis is there! *facepalm* 😛
Now to the members-only items! We’ve only got one for now, but every episode we will get another item. The item for Episode 1 (Into the Deep) is the Diving Suit, as HP discovered earlier.
I’m really looking forward to this island! I’m personally quite fascinated by Atlantis, so this island will be my type. I hope we can explore the bottom of the sea soon!
I also have this sneaking suspicion in the back of my mind – I wonder if the Creators will release Mission Atlantis during Survival Island, like alternating episodes? That’s just my mind wandering, but who knows. 😛 Anyway, that’s it! Cya later!

Hey Poptropicans with iPads, you can now download a new update for your free Poptropica iPad app which includes Survival: Episode 1 (Crash Landing)! And if you need a walkthrough, click here. 🙂
If you own other mobile devices, don’t worry – the Survival Island tour page has been updated to announce that it will soon be coming to the App Store (for iPhones & iPod touches) as well as the Google Play Store (for Androids)!
We also now know that there will be 5 episodes total for Survival Island, and Episode 3 (Distress Signal) now has a description: “A broken radio. A chance for rescue. Send a distress call if you can, but beware of who might be listening!” However, we still don’t know when members can play episode 2.
UPDATE: Survival Island will be launching for non-members on April 17, 2014, according to a recent Poptropica press article (thanks, Brave Tomato!).
Hey guys, BT here – with the formal announcement of the new island, Mission Atlantis! Today, the Creators released the trailer video for the upcoming island they’d only just announced:
Wow… is it me or do episodic adventures like to begin with a crash landing related to electricity?
…seriously?
Anyway, if you pause it right before the title is revealed, you’ll see strange lights in the background…
No, this isn’t the other underwater city in Poptropica, Poptropolis. This looks like it’s THE Atlantis.
In case you didn’t know, Atlantis was a fabled underwater city originating from, well, Greek mythology of all things. It was once over land, but one day, it sank into the ocean. The first episode is titled “Into the Deep” – looks like that’s where we’re headed!
Well… this’ll be interesting.
BT out…

First off, the first thing you’re going to notice is the wind sound effect. It is stinking annoying. Second, the island is horrible if you’re writing a guide, because if you’re idle too long, your Poptropican freezes to death. But those are just my little pet peeves, let’s get on with the good stuff! 😆
First, we are confronted with some new interface icons. There’s a thermometer and a flag on the bottom of the screen, and plus a fire symbol when you have enough materials to make a fire. The thermometer is to keep your temperature up, and the flag is to determine the wind direction and speed. The last time we had special icons like this was the cell phone on Night Watch Island.
The story, as of now, is pretty vague: build a fire. At the end of the island, there is a hint that someone else is on the island, but that doesn’t really make up for the lazy story that they made. Islands aren’t supposed to be like this.
I do have to say that after all the episodes have come out, this island is going to be colossal.
They tried something new here, and that is that they made it harder by deceiving you. There are multiple things that you could do, although there is only one real path to take. The Handbook suggests that you can cut some grass to burn, and you leave a wedge stuck inside a tree. Some suspicious rats sleep inside a tree, and the Wet Kindling is never used once in the island. Are these possibilities for future episodes? It seems unlikely, though possible.
Those are my thoughts on Episode 1 (Crash Landing) of Survival Island. What do you think about the island? Tell me in the comments. 😀
