Category: S.O.S. Island

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?

I know you’ll break the rules and sneak into this post anyway! 😀 So, here’s the scoop. Remember that weird icon on the Poptropica bar with the store and stuff a few posts back? They have another sneak peek just like that!

We’re plugging away on a cool new feature for Poptropica that we will have ready for you soon. Here’s another quick look.

Can you guess what it might be? We’ll have all the details soon!

What do you think this update means for the future of Poptropica? 😮 Friends? Other things? Put your guesses in the comments! 🙂

Before I go, here’s a picture of the map with SOS Island added to it! (Thanks SG)

A little (Purple) Thunder said something about this in the comments…

“There’s a bonus quest on Poptropica for the first time! Members get a exclusive pack with special costumes and powers! (This is on S.O.S.)”

Well, here’s my cue to leave! See ya later! 😀

S.O.S. Island

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night, fellow Poptropicans.

Here goes another PHB post informing you on the first island of 2012 – S.O.S. Island ( ironic, huh? ).

With S.O.S. Island on the way, we thought we’d share a cool new thing we’re working on for this Island. We’ve had water on many islands before, but we’ve never before had water this wavy, or water that allows you to dive and resurface as you’ll be able to do in the flooding corridors of the good ship Pequod.

Here’s a little look:

Surviving this shipwreck is going to take a lot of courage — not to mention a lot of air in your lungs! S.O.S. Island is coming soon.

This tells us that we’ll be able to swim for the first time and it’s coming very soon! Prepare yourself for a shipwreck in this island, Poptropicans! Because it’s coming soon.

Thanks again, Creators. We’re hooked!

SOS! SOS! The trailer has arrived!! 😀

“An arctic cruise collides with trouble! Join the rescue mission! Breathe deep and dive into the challenge!” ~ Trailer

This video shows some scenes in SOS Island! One of the scenes shown is the sinking ship! It’s not quite sunken yet! Another scene is the emergency control room and someone asking you if there are any survivors! The last scene shown is of the character swimming down in the depths of the ocean blue encountering an anchor! Looks exciting! 😀 Release date and more to follow!

Here’s another picture of Dr. Hare! Have you guessed where he is yet? If you haven’t guessed yet, he’s at the Harvard Museum of Natural History in Cambridge, Massachusetts! 😀 This place looks cool! I’d like to visit this someday. Wouldn’t you? 🙂

~~~

Well, until next time, stay cool! 😀

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!
