Wait — is that a typo? We’re GIVING this exciting adventure away?

Once I’m back from my travels, I’ll be sure to have some words with the other Creators about this. There’s entirely too much merriment around Poptropica these days!

Oh, Dr. Hare…. We’ll give you a carrot if you don’t say anything about this… *moves eyebrows up and down mysteriously*

Anyway, go get this quest! 😀

running out of time..

The creators gave us a heads up in their new post on the PCB. This head’s up is to inform us that the first scavenger hunt will soon be over! By 10/26/11, in just about 5 days, the first scavenger hunt will end, and the second one will start a day later on the 27th! If you haven’t bought the book yet and want it, there’s still time left to quickly make a purchase, then hunt for the answers!

But of course, the answers to all three questions have been easily figured out by some of our readers. Special thanks to the PHB readers and commenters for providing these answers! For those of you wh0 actually want a hunt, then don’t read this bottom part, it’s the answer to the code. Don’t read it if you want the thrill of a hunt. But for those of you seriously stuck, or who didn’t purchase the book, the code is below:

Title of Poptropica villian on page 45 = dr.Hare (it doesnt fit so you just put ‘DR’)

rank of Poptropica villian on page 133 = captain crawfish (His rank is captain, so write ‘CAPTAIN’)

size of Poptropica villian on page 174 = BIG, LARGE (in Spanish, so you type ‘GRANDE’)

So the final code: DRCAPTAINGRANDE

You can use this code to redeem your virtual book for your character! Nice, huh? Yep, go and use this code for your free prize!

Adventures…on a blimp!

elmopwns

Everyone knows the Poptropica Blimp, the yellow floating vehicle with the Poptropica logo that flies around and takes you to certain islands. You can use it for your many various travels in the game of Poptropica

Well, I bet a lot of you also heard news that the blimp has been made into a toy! Yep, you can now purchase an inflatable toy version of the blimp-your very own authentic Poptropica blimp! Cool, huh?

Well, this new post on the Creators’ Blog is all about that new toy. Here’s a new pic of Jeff Kinney holding one of these toys…pretty big if you ask me.

But wait…hold your horses. If we carefully scrutinize the photo…zoom in, you’ll see that there are some things to be noticed in this photo. First off there’s a standing poster of a Poptropica rock star, unseen before, yet possibly a future product. You’ll notice their office is located somewhere in a tall building because of the look out the windows, and also by the window counter appears to be a fossil track mark, a school bus, and an almost unnoticable similar standing poster. Except this poster is of Shark Boy. Hint…hint…

Anyways, the blimp comes with a special code for you to play a special game on the virtual world of Poptropica! With the blimp comes this unique code. Here’s a video on the PCB demonstrating the game!

The basic plot is that an evil genius named Dr. Cumulo Nimbus has come to conquer these lands in a weather balloon. He begins to “go insane” and strike lightning with his weather balloons on the land. In this adventure, you must go around in your balloon and extinguish the flames by pouring water from a bucket tied to the water balloon. Then you win when you successfully put out the fires igniting in a fiery inferno on the villages, which are placed on islands.

EP out!

The guide is coming

elmopwns

So guess what showed up on the PCB today? Well, a new post, and this isn’t just any new post ;). Look back in your mind to all those months ago when the creators showed us…eh, some new book. Remember that? You could pre-order it on Amazon, but it hasn’t been released yet. Well, that release date is close to coming according to the PCB!

This book is titled Poptropica – The Official Guide! It was mentioned in  a previous post and sounded pretty big. After all these months, we haven’t gotten any info on this book…until now.

The picture from the PCB (above) was snapped apparently at their office. We learned that the book is 190 pages of color and art and even island guides. I can’t wait to see how they wrote their island guides, probably different than the ones here. And there’s more, even a fold out map, that could be found no where else, is included in this guide They announced the official release date is October 13th. That’s just about a month away!

Will you get this book? Comment below and share your thoughts!
