News delivery, arrrgh!

And so the members once again get a new Store surprise!

New this week in the Poptropica Store

The birthday party continues with the return of two Members-only items to the Poptropica Store:

From now until the end of September, Poptropica Members can get the Paper Boy and Girl costumes, as well as the Skullduggery Pirate, from the Poptropica Store. Act fast — they’ll be gone when September is. Not a Member yet? Find out how to become a Poptropica Member today!

Remember these super cool costumes? ^^ Never got the chance to catch them? D:

Luckily, these amazing outfits are back for you lucky Poptropica Members. But only for September– you’ll have to act quick about it! The Skullduggery one is especially fitting because today, September 19th, 2011, is International Talk Like A Pirate Day! ARR!

Now you can look super cool while looking like a human patch of paper and wearing eyepatches– all while finishing Mystery Train Island!

So maybe it’s not an ideal combination. But you’ll still look pretty stylish! 😉 Maybe if you have a weird sense of humor like me

Mystery Not Solved…Yet!

Well, today is September 9, and guess what today is?

MY BIRTHDAY! Not really. It’s the release of Mystery Train for members! It was released at 4:21 PST, as you know from previous posts, in honor of it’s 4th birthday and 21st island.

 

Us non members get a special treat! Once again, we get a small demo of what the island is like until non members get to play it on October 7th! 😀 On the homepage, a silhouette of the train rushes past in the background, in honor of this release! Awesomeness!

Just so you know, once Edison’s invention gets stolen, the demo will end.

The guide for Mystery Train is up now! Special thanks to Super Thunder, Brave Tomato, Hijuyo, and Elmo Pwns!

Visit the Mystery Train island page on the PHB for all the info you need! 😀

Another update was made to the Poptropica store adding in two more LE costumes for members for their 4th birthday!

The Robin Hood and Light Ninja will only be available until the end of this month, so get ’em while they’re hot! Also, get all the other updates they made, such as the balloon and the minigames!

Well, have fun on Mystery Train, and congrats to the people who finished it already!

( 9/11 10th Anniv. is coming up. </3 Honor the people who lost their lives in this tragedy 10 years ago…)

On this special day

There was once a gloomy place called the internet.

People roamed this area, poking people, writing on walls, and stalking others without their knowledge. They stared at moving square pictures, and resided in odd things called “Yootoobs” and “Face Books”.

But then, on September1st, 2007, came a miracle for those who were tired of these grounds of virtual mafias and farms.

da-da-da-da-DA!

Poptropicaaaaa!

You may have noticed this banner around the bottom of the home page. Did the creators put it there for kicks and giggles?

Nope!

September 1st symbolizes the 4th birthday of Poptropica, silly!

The creator’s have something to say as well.

Happy birthday to us!

It’s hard to believe, but Poptropica’s birthday is nearly upon us! This September will mark four years since we launched our site with only a single Island and a dream. Now we’re up to 21 Islands, loads of mini-games, hundreds of costumes and Gold Cards, and millions upon millions of our very dearest friends — all of you!

That’s why we’d like you to help us celebrate our birthday in style. All throughout September, Poptropicans will have a chance to win a special birthday prize by visiting any common room. We’ll also be re-releasing some classic costumes to the Poptropica Store for a limited time only. And everyone who visits the Store can get a free birthday balloon.

Read all the details on our fourth birthday page. And thanks to everyone who has made Poptropica such a wonderful place to play for the past four years. We’ve got a lot more in store for you in the years to come!

Read more at the special page just for Poptropica’s Fourth Birthday!

It includes information such as the fact that the Special Edition golden Renegade Robot and Steamworks Mech Pilots are coming back to the store, FREE, though for members only.

WHOOOOAAA! Cool!

Remember the 3rd birthday balloons? Well, they’re back, only updated to 4th years! You can get a free one in the store, and also search for the extra special one in multiplayer rooms to receive a cake costume.

Aside from this great mark in Poptropica history, you can also find two new (well, not very new) games, once again for free, in the Store. The sumo wrestling one, as well as the Shrink Shot game.

Thanks to Machine Lord for the tips!

Have fun celebrating Poptropica’s birthday, and playing these amazing games, and until next time,

EDITS HAVE BEEN MADE! SCROLL DOWN! 😀

I had some free time this week, so I thought I would post about the new things that the Creators added in the Poptropica store!  Many things have been added 😀 I’m sure most of you know about the birthday balloon:

Anyone who visits the store can get the Fourth Birthday Balloon for free! Isn’t free awesome? 🙂 Also in celebration of Poptropica’s 4th birthday this September, they added in the last two minigames to hit Poptropica: Shrink Shot (Shrink Ray) and Prepare for Impact (Red Dragon)!

You can add these games to your inventory for free and play whenever you want! 😀 You can get all the previous prizes available! They also included a special treat for all you Members out there (lucky :P): They re-released the Mech Pilot costume (Steamworks) and the Renegade robot for a limited time!

If you missed them before, or if you have just become a member some time ago, you now get another chance to get these Members-only gold cards! 🙂 If you aren’t a member, the Creators are encouraging you to sign up! Well, stay tuned for more Birthday fun coming to Poptropica!

Happy fourth birthday Poptropica! 😀

The Creators also have other updates: a video concerning heat map technology and another countdown timer!

The Creators said that this is a feature they were working on for one of the new islands. Could it be for the E.vile Legen-wait-for-it-dary island? Looks like we have to wait to find out! 🙂

They also put in a  countdown timer for Mystery Train, letting you know the exact moment when your train leaves the station (Get it? 😀 )! It releases in less than a week! Excited, members? 😛 So what’s your departure time?

Happy 4th Birthday to Poptropica!

Guess what? It’s getting close to someone’s special day :D. Especially someone who’s been providing us with quality entertainment and exciting adventures for almost…that’s right, 4 whopping years of fun! Guess who it is? That’s right, happy birthday to Poptropica!

What started out as a small online game advertised on the Funbrain website has now become A GLOBAL phenomenon. Poptropica has really, really, really grown in four years. So far there’s been 21 islands, tons of minigames, HUNDREDS of sweet costumes, lots of gold cards, many new and cool features, and MILLIONS of players worldwide.

To celebrate it, the creators announced on the PCB the 4th B-day and what they’ll be releasing to us to celebrate it!

According to the PCB, all September long Poptropicans will have a chance at winning a special costume! By visting multiplayer rooms, anyone will get a chance of finding a special birthday present. The present is the special “4” balloon that marks Poptropica’s 4th birthday. It’s sort of like the “3” balloon last year. Once you find the 4th balloon, you can pop it to get a special present! The present apparently is a limited edition cake suit. It’s featured in the PCB image above.

Another thing the creators are releasing to us is a members only exclusive item. Yep, members now have a limited edition chance to obtain special gold costumes like the Light Ninja. These were limited edition costumes, previously out of the Poptropica Store. Now members have a chance of obtaining these items for another limited time. If you missed out on your first chance, here’s another try. Each week in September, two of these items will be re-released again.

And lastly, everyone gets a special “4” balloon just by claiming it in the Poptropica Store. These balloons are for everyone, so head on over to the store to get your very own commemorative balloon.

So for everyone on this blog, one word: PARTAYYY! Poptropica’s 4th birthday is looming near, and I’m encouraging all players to celebrate it. 😀
