Category: Timmy Failure Island

When danger lurks, and criminals hide around every corner, you need the best detective money can buy. That detective is not Timmy Failure — but don’t try to tell him that. You’re about to come face to face with the craziest cast of characters ever to appear on a Poptropica Island. Trying to solve this mystery is only the beginning!

Speaking of Sunday, that will also be the last day of Poptropica’s 8th Birthday celebration. If you haven’t received the 8th birthday prize or 200 credits for finishing Early Poptropica (first time only), well now’s the time to grab ’em!

Next, Captain Crawfish has uploaded a new Realms video featuring Smart Bones’ labyrinth— and it left us a challenge! Captain Crawfish finished the maze in 6 minutes and 45 seconds—can you beat his time? Leave your results below

(Warning: Beware of shouting, ranting, groaning, words of wisdom and Crawfish-seizures! :P)

Speaking of the Creators, Poptropica shared some of their spooky Photo Booth creations on Twitter! Want to share yours? Tweet to Poptropica and they’ll retweet! 🙂

PHB Review: Timmy Failure Island

What’s popping, Poptropicans? Blake here, with a little something different for you guys. I’m actually going to be reviewing the most recent Island: Timmy Failure! Without further ado, let’s jump right in!

timmyfailurereview

Of course, today I’m reviewing Timmy Failure Island. And my verdict? I absolutely loved it. It was exactly like one of the books! You know, those books I TOTALLY read before the week prior to the Island coming out… Yeah.

The writing was spectacular, and it really felt like I became a character. Getting to interact with Timmy and the rest of the gang was amazing, and way better than that other book themed Island I hate with every fibre of my body… LOOKING AT YOU, COSMOE!

Anyway, I guess it’s time I break into my literal review of Timmy Failure Island

Story: 4.5/5

The story for this island was good, but it wasn’t the best either. The Creators did an excellent job making you feel like you were a part of the Island’s story, and I loved seeing that from a book themed island.

Characters: 3/5

For an island based on Timmy Failure, we really didn’t see much of Timmy. Even his polar bear sidekick got more screentime. In my opinion, if you’re going to make a book themed Island, I’d suggest focusing more on the main character of the island, which in this one we only really communicated with through his detective log.

Art Direction: 5/5

For a book themed Island, the art in this was spectacular. It really immersed you in Timmy’s world, taking you from his house, to the zoo, to the offices of Corrina Corrina. I expect to see more of this type of art in the future.

Well, that’s my review! I feel like for a first time, I did a pretty good job. Anyway, stay popping, Poptropicans!

Episodes 1 and 2 are out now, and I plan to have a new episode out every Tuesday! Come check it out, I’d love to have you!

Hey everyone! Just a reminder that Timmy Failure Island is out for everyone tomorrow! Yeah that’s right…a Tuesday! (Find out why in this PHB post.)

For everyone getting ready to start the great pants chase, we have a guide made by our very own Brave Tomato that can help you through the parts you get stuck on!

In other news, there have been some changes on Home Island! In front of the Shop, there used to be a guy with an eyepatch standing there – but now there’s a different NPC, the gender of whom depends on your character. The outfit of the NPC also varies, but it looks pretty snazzy!

Finally, last but not least, there has been some changes to the Photo Booth (plus the NPC in front has been replaced with a witch)! The Creators just added some frightful new backgrounds, characters, and props! Now you can make Poptropica Halloween-themed photos using backgrounds and stickers with all your favorite Halloween characters.

Anyway, that’s it guys! Have a fun time with all the new updates and send us some of your photos! We want to see your amazing creations!

Timmy Failure Island

Prepare for failure this… Tuesday?!

Slippery Raptor

Hey guys, Slip here.

timmybookThe Creators have reminded us that on October 6th, which is next Tuesday, Timmy Failure Island will be open to all players! But why does it fall upon a Tuesday when island releases are usually on Thursdays?

Here’s the reason they gave: “on that same day, the newest Timmy Failure book will become available when Timmy Failure: Sanitized for Your Protection hits bookshelves!”

Oh cool! So now you know what to do on Tuesday! Poptropica usually updates around 12 PM-3 PM EST, so make sure to get a head start on this pants-chasing adventure!

Stuck trying to find Timmy’s pants? Check out our Timmy Failure Island Guide here on the PHB! Make sure to leave a comment. 🙂
