Bonus Items, Membership, Store

There’s Free… and then there’s Free+.

You probably already know that the Poptropica Store includes some free stuff you can claim. But now there’s more, and it’s called Free+. Let the Creators’ Blog explain:

Free+

You might have noticed a new icon on some of the items in the Poptropica Store.

What is Free+? Free+ means that the item is free for everybody who wants it, and also has some extra-special features for Members. When you play “Shrink Shot” or “Prepare for Impact,” for example, you’ll get additional powers and prizes if you’re a Member.

So, kinda cool for the members, not so much for everyone else. 😛 But still, it’s nice to have free stuff, and when an item is labeled Free+, it just means that Poptropica Members will get extra features or prizes. Nice.

In other news, Legendary Swords releases on tomorrow’s legendary date – 11/11/11! That’s not gonna happen for another thousand years. It would be pretty epic to release on 11:11am/pm, too. Plus, if it’s your 11th birthday that day, kudos! I myself will be 15 on the 15th, so that’s awesome too. xD

Happy Update Day!

We’ve got a whole BUNCH of updates for you today! Let’s go through them one by one starting with…

~~~

1: MONEY LADDER!

Money Ladder made its debut today!

This game is like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? It’s a trivia game that tests your smarts on the outside world, not just Poptropica. Lifelines are also available for members only: the Professor, the Athlete, and the Starlet, all robots. Money Ladder has three levels, and you have to answer each question correctly to advance!

Once you pass all three levels, the prizes arrive! They are the Robot Dance, the Robot Costume, and Binary Rain! Available to all!!

Robot Costume: This costume has no special action, but it looks awesome with its bright glowing futuristic look!

Binary Rain: When you activate this card, a rain storm of binary numbers comes pouring down!

Robot Dance: Activating this makes your character bust a move and do the Robot!

Good luck in passing this minigame! 😀 On to our next update, which is…

~~~

2. HAUNTED HOUSE!

Have you noticed the Haunted House gold card lately?

One: It’s free and Two: There’s a bubble that says there’s an ALL-NEW PRIZE! Want to know what it is? Go to the angel and enter the party below. You’ll find this!

Zombie costume! You now get to zombify other Poptropicans and costumize the costume for yourself! Unfortunately, it’s kinda stuck in the wall… People speculate that it will release on the first day of October, so wait to find out! 😀

EDIT: Zombify has now released! Get out there and become one of the undead! 😀 There’s also a new guest at the party: a zombie who says “I’m feeling dead on my feet” (Thanks Mstorm/Mbones/Madrigal!)

Can’t wait for this costume! 🙂 Another update for today is…

3. LION KING AD!

The Lion King ad is here, in celebration of the Lion King in 3D releasing in theaters for two weeks only.Walkthrough provided below:

People say that it’s available on Shark Tooth for all ages. You have to beat Simba, Timon, and Pumba’s scores for diving in the splash zone! You have to follow the beam of light and collect bugs on the way to increase your score. Your prizes are Simba’s roar and Rafiki Outfit!

Have fun beating this ad! 😀 Our last update is…

4.  Multiverse!

Many people report that Multiverse is now free! From being the most expensive, at 350, to being the cheapest, at 0! Get out there and get it before the offer expires! 😀

Have fun partying with friends! 🙂

The party’s still going strong but…

…all good things must come to an end. Like:

  • Your birthday
  • MY birthday
  • Granny’s birthday!
  • School oops school is NOT a good thing.
  • Your poptropica membership
  • your insane sister’s trip to somewhere far, FAR, FAR away.
  • an adrenalin rush
  • Poptropica 911 (for those who remember 😥 )
  • the can of coke

So does the month of September. The month of september is ending in 2 DAYS. 😥 You know what that means… these Member only costumes in the Pop store will soon go away. Forever. Never to come back. *sniff* I, I… *blows nose* I’m sorry, *sniff* can we stop the tape? *sob*

*CUT TAPE*

It’s almost time to blow out the candles

Time flies! Poptropica’s fourth birthday celebration is almost over. The limited edition costumes that have been re-released to the store for the month of September are about to disappear. GB: 😥 I told you! *sob*

These costumes are available until the end of the day on Friday for Poptropica Members. Even if your Membership ends in the future, you’ll still have the costumes to keep forever.

So what are you waiting for? If you’re a Poptropica Member, visit Poptropica and pick up your exclusive costumes from the Poptropica Store!

If you’re not yet a Member, find out how to become a Member today. Besides these limited-edition costumes, you’ll also have Early Acess to all new Islands, including Mystery Train and Game Show Island!

Our birthday may be almost over, but you can bet we have a lot more fun in store for Poptropicans in the months and years to come. Why, it’s still September yet, and we told you the Legend was coming this month. Tomorrow, we’ll let you know what that is!

The All-New Island Is….

Wait for it…..

Wait for it….

PIE ISLAND! 😀

Not the real island 😛 The name of it is…

GAME SHOW ISLAND!

All the info was posted today on the official island page!  http://www.poptropica.com/island-tour/gameshow-island.html

Welcome to a future where robots rule. Building computers to compete on TV game shows seemed like a funny idea – until the machines wanted more. Now, after years of robotic dominance, Poptropica needs a savior. Are you clever enough to beat the robots at their own games, and restore the dignity of all Poptropicans?

Sounds interesting! Looks like the “super-smart robots have taken over the world by winning all the money and prizes from game shows.”  (PCB) This is probably the island where the E.Vile robots originate and where the Mr. Yoshi stuff come from. IF you remember all of the Daily Pop sneak peeks about robots and such, this is the island! Can’t wait for this one! 😀 More info will follow soon!

Two new members-only costumes have made their way back to town too: The Cryptids Nessie Hat and the Hypnotic Costume!

The Cryptid Nessie Hat was only obtained if you happened to spot the Loch Ness Monster in the Cryptid minigame! This was one of the rare prizes. The hypnotic used to be obtained by clicking the middle window four floors up from the ground on the green building in Poptropica Towers on Early Poptropica. It’s still there, but if you click on the window, it will say member’s only. This has been noticed by many PHB readers. Get them while they’re hot, because you only have a week to date to get these elusive costumes! And if you haven’t got the 4th birthday costume, keep trying! 🙂
