Hey everyone! Today’s a big day regardless of your membership status, because there’s good news either way! Survival Island: Episode 1 is now out for members! No demo for non-members, though.
Non-members can now play Monster Carnival Island fully through! Be sure to check out our Monster Carnival Island Guide so the monsters don’t get you down.
After six years of rumors, the legendary carnival is finally in town for all Poptropicans! So non-members, is the Ferris wheel’s face creeping you out yet? And members, how’s your fire going? Take the poll below, and tell us what you think of these islands in the comments or on the PHC! 😀
Yes, the winged creatures. These birds of all kinds, from seagulls to owls to woodpeckers, will quite frankly be haunting your life in Survival Island. These are the Survival Files, and danger awaits…
Let’s discuss the birds that we may be seeing in Survival Island. In some of the early pictures from Reality TV Island (which is based off of Survivor), the main setting was a mountain theme. In one such sneak peek that never became a reality, a seagull and its nest are shown.
In Survival Island, one of your main goals is to survive, and one way to do that is to find something to eat. Comic Kid is not sure if the bird would like it if he were to eat the eggs laying inside the nest.
As we know from the Daily Pop, one of the items from Survival Island is a nest.
But enough about seagulls — let’s talk about owls. In a Daily Pop from a few months ago, an owl in horrible shape is shown. He seems to have fallen apart, but it’s probably for the animation pivot points. This owl also seems to have multiple babies (then again, perhaps it’s just the process of animation).
Perhaps this will be the final boss of the owls, because this island appears to house many other owls. From the looks of it, they will be jumping out at you for the most part. 😛
Besides seagulls and owls, it looks like woodpeckers will also appear on Survival Island. You can find one flying through the forest in the desktop wallpaper.
And that’s just the birds! Tune in next time for More on the Story of Survival Island. 😉
Hey everyone! The Creators have released the video trailer for Survival Island, Poptropica’s first ever island to be released in episodes! Poor exploded blimp…
Also, the members’ Wind Power for Survival Island is now in the Store. (We already knew about this from HP’s sneak peek a week ago, plus HP has the leaked Ghillie Suit, the next Survival members’ gold card item! It was in the Store for a short time before being pulled off.) When you use the Wind Power, the weather turns windy, and white dots fly through the screen – kind of like snow.
Overall, I think this will be harder than other islands, but their idea of episodes are great! I wonder how they are going to do the rankings of people completing the island because they will have multiple episodes. What do you think of Survival Island and the idea of episodes? Tell me in the comments! 🙂
The Creators just announced the next Poptropica Island — Survival Island! Of course, we already knew what it was, but the newest post from the PCB reveals their newest plans for island — Episodes! This means more play, more often, as we’ll be playing new chapters as they become available!
They’ll be releasing three episodes for Survival at different times, the first being Crash Landing, and it’s different than any other experience before! The first chapter will be released to Poptropica Members on the 20th of March (this month), so expect multiple posts from the PHB until then. 😀
off-topic alert: Change of plans concerning the Poptropican Portrait Livestream March 2014, we’re changing the time from 6:00 EST to 7:00 EST. I’m sorry if you won’t be able to make it. Also, Samwow5 will be about 30 minutes late, so just keep that in mind. c;
Anywho, there are a lot of things we need to go over concerning Survival Island and now Deep Dive Island. Survival and Deep Dive are definitely broken into three parts now, and all I can say is — each of these parts look like they will be as big and long as a regular island.
I didn’t say like a regular island. I said just as long. These islands look more like obstacle courses, with challenging/frightening places that you have to get past. In Survival Island, your blimp crashes in the wilderness, but we don’t know the plot of Deep Dive yet.
I’ve uncovered the creepy main theme for Survival Island on the Behind the Scenes page along with multiple other new tunes, but here’s the theme just for a taste:
Gives me chills! 😀
You will be facing many different challenges– broken trees, owls, and a scary monster… maybe a bear? You will need to assemble multiple pages out of a handbook, those pages being the mystical ones we’ve been pondering about from the Daily Pop.
We’ve been forgetting about something that has happened long before any note of this Survival Island — Reality TV Island. Before the cheaply made mini game filled island came out, it was rumored to be a huge survival camp island, with mountains, awesome animals, food from the wild, and more. Perhaps they’re fulfilling their unfulfilled island in Survival Island. After all, RTV was based on Survivor!
And, since there is a backstory to cover, I’ll be releasing a series of posts called The Survival Island Files. Sound familiar? 😛 I’ll be going over the many elements that may be showing up in the Survival series. I’ll be posting them up until the release. Beware of the forest — many things await. 😉
Remember that we only know about Part 1 of Survival Island. There’s more to come. 😉
I think March is gonna be the month of something lightning-related interfering with our mortal Poptropican lives. So the Creators just posted this teaser – I actually think it’s for that Survival card…
Yup, it looks like a good ol’fashioned thunderstorm is gonna leave us on that mess on Survival Island…eh, that happened to Gilligan and the crew of the Minnow too, so I can’t really complain.
