Ahoy, sailors! Members, remember the brilliant Sea Captain costume you received? We’re reluctant to announce that’s coming to an end only one week – Thursday, February 16th. Though, anyone who gets Membership after next Thursday will still be able to get Sonar Power and Fishing Pole, but the Sea Captain costume is only available during the Early Access period.
Yep, non-members, I said it. Only available during the Early Access period. Therefore I am proud to announce that S.O.S. Island is going to be available and free for everyoneThursday, February 16th! Great belated present for Valentine’s Day, huh?
Thanks for reading and may many natural disasters be in your future – on Poptropica. Not literally, that’d be mean.
Remember the SOS Island Members-only gear pack in the Poptropica Store that comes with awesome stuff like the sonar power?
Our favorite sea captain, Crawfish himself, wants to let you know that you can find the gear in your “Store Items” inventory… at the end of the line. He signs off with “happy fishing!”
Thanks CC, we’ll be sure to go fishing for crawfish! Mmmm.
In other news, Loud Shark has created a video tutorial for a new ad game in Poptropica called “Monster High Sweet 1600”! Check it out:
The prizes are Draculaura’s dress and a Count Fabulous follower.

For us nonmembers, there is a demo for us to play! When you log in, you might see this screen… (Thanks Alice!) 🙂
Afterwards, you land on the sinking ship itself! This is certainly different, isn’t it? Once you talk to the captain, you get a screen saying: (Thanks SG!) 🙂
Looks more like a quest, don’t you think? This island certainly is different! After you save your first passenger in Room 6 and take him to the rescue camp, the demo ends and tells you the release date for all is 2/16/12! 😀
And just in case you were wondering about the map, it looks like this: (Thanks Super Thunder!) 🙂
Rescue camp from SOS: (Thanks MH!) 🙂
And as you know, members get an exclusive after quest where they get to stop an oil leak! Super Thunder, one of our walkthrough writers, has given us screenshots! Thanks! 😀
They also got a member pack! Here’s a video from LS showing us! 🙂

Well, that’s all the SOS Info for now! Have fun playing! 😀 Oh, and one more thing:
Ready to catch some ghosts on the new upcoming island titled Ghost Story Island? Can’t wait to capture some spirits? Your zeal has been temporarily relieved! A new minigame is out, and find out how you can win this costume:
It’s a members only, limited edition suit! It looks pretty high tech and epic if you ask me. My favorite part is the techy helmet. What’s yours?
Only members can obtain this suit, and with a special game. All members can, starting from today, can play a game to hunt down ghosts over Poptropica. You can easily access it by going to the map and to the “Spooky Centeral” icon for the minigame to start. The icon for the game is by the Ghost Story Island location.
Upon arriving you’ll be in a massive labratory. In the middle is a female scientist building a yellow apparatus. Talk to her and say “Maybe I Can Help.” She will give you an EMF detector that will flash when equipped if a ghost is in your area. Then you will obtain a plasma net to catch them and a log to keep track of ghosts you’ve caught.
What are you waiting for, then? Go to the islands and find some ghosts! The game will begin, and there’s a fabulous end reward.
Lots of updates today! First up is the new Poptropica island…
A little late for the season maybe, but it sounds AWESOME! 😀 Most of the sneak peeks in Daily Pop have been leading up to this moment! Wanna know the plot?
Hemlock Harbor is a town with a secret. Restless spirits are said to haunt its shores, but no one knows who they are, what they want — or how to get rid of them. Can you hunt the ghosts of Hemlock Harbor and uncover the mystery that will set them free?
Scavenger Hunt 3 is out! this one might be a little tough if you don’t have the book. We have no info whatsoever about the final prize, but we’ll let you know if we do!http://www.poptropica.com/books/ScavengerHunt_US.pdf
Make It Count!
What page does Shark Boy first appear on?
What page is the legend of Balloon Boy on?
What number is the last page of the book?
1 _ 9 _ 1 _ _
This one looks like a toughie. See if you can figure it out! 😉 If you absolutely give up, here is a picture of the prize! Cool wacky glasses! “Look” VERY closely, and you can see the light… (thx SG)
The code will be availible up to 12/1/11. That’s December 1st! 😀
