Mission Atlantis Island

Touring under the sea in Mission Atlantis!

Hey everyone! The Creators just released the tour page for the next island, Mission Atlantis! Likeย Survival Island, it’s going to be split into episodes. If you haven’t yetย seen the video trailerย 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! ๐Ÿ˜› On the new official tour page, you can view and downloadย 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 seaโ€ฆ 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* ๐Ÿ˜›

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. ๐Ÿ˜› Anyway, that’s it! Cya later!

We also now know that there will be 5 episodes total for Survival Island, andย 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 knowย when members canย play episode 2.

UPDATE: Survival Island will be launching for non-membersย on April 17, 2014, according to a recent Poptropica press article (thanks, Brave Tomato!).

A Delve Deeper into Mission Atlantis (New Island!)

Hey guys, BT here – with the formal announcement of the new island, Mission Atlantis! Today, theย Creators released the trailer video for the upcoming islandย 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 looksย 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…

Survival Island: Episode 1 Overview

(ยฏ`ยท.ยธยธ.ยทยดยฏ`ยท.ยธยธ.-> Hi Gs, <-.ยธยธ.ยทยดยฏ`ยท.ยธยธ.ยทยดยฏ)

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! ๐Ÿ˜†

episodeoneoverviewlogo

First, we are confronted with some newย 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 iconsย like this was the cell phone on Night Watchย 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 Wetย 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. ๐Ÿ˜€

Username finding, iPad handheld available, and more on upcoming Islands!

Such update, very compiled! Be prepared to have your mind overloaded with new things happening on Poptropica.

Username Finding

Have you ever wanted to know some of the usernames from your Friends list that you befriended in common rooms? Now you can! Use the video walkthrough below! ๐Ÿ˜€

To clarify, the “pass hash” that I blurred in the video was not Samwow5’s. It was mine. This is not a way to hack into accounts. Yes, the hash can be unhashed, but it shows your password. Right under the “pass hash”, your username shows up. Try it for yourself. This is not a way to hack accounts. Keep on finding usernames! ๐Ÿ˜€

Find the iPad Handheld!

For some users, you can find the rumored iPad handheld on the Main Street of multiple islands including Early Poptropica. When spacebar is pressed, the iPad/tablet tosses a Disney Infinity ball into the air that then bursts into a Disney Infinity character. Such strange. :mrgreen: (credit: Shaggy Dragon)

The main theme for Survival Island: Episode 2ย has been uncovered, along with many other new tracks for upcoming islands, which are now listed on ourย Behind the Scenes page! The episode seems to be coming very soon — most of the island has been uploaded in the files.

But wait, there’s more! Turns out deep divingย isn’t the only thing we’re going to be doing on the next island after Survival… get ready for Mission Atlantis! I’ll go into the details soon, but for now, Mission Atlantis is all we know about this new island! ๐Ÿ˜€
