Galactic Hot Dogs Island, New Islands, Social Media

A tasty new island is on the horizon…

Hi Gs,

We’ve been getting some vibes of Galactic Hot Dogs from Poptropica’s Twitter recently, and now it seems to have finally been confirmed (or at least we now know that a GHD island is in development). Check out the picture below of a couple of logo designs from a recent tweet –

Does this confirm Galactic Hot Dogs Island? I’d say so, but the description of the post seems uncertain – “Guess what we’re trying to figure out….” Anyway, Galactic Hot Dogs Island would be the first sponsored island in ages, the previous being Wimpy Boardwalk (released in 2012). 😛

Now, about the title (what, you thought the title was about Galactic Hot Dogs? 😛 )… Poptropica has once again changed their filing system, and as of now I can’t view any of the upcoming islands as they’re now considered “bundles”, whatever that means. Anyway, what I do know is that there will soon be a Halloween themed island (titled “halloween1”, “halloween2”, and “halloween3” in the files).

There will also be a – wait for it – pie island? Or that’s what it says, anyway (see below). For now, that’s all we know, so check back soon for more info on these upcoming and strange adventures. 😀

Update: Slippery Raptor suggested in the comments that the Halloween/pie bundles are perhaps costumes for the Poptropica app, which is definitely possible. Strange that they’re listed with island names, though!

Arabian Nights Island, New Islands

A Whole New Poptropica Island: Arabian Nights!

Oh I come from a land, from a faraway place
Where the islands freely roam
The oceans are immense and it does get intense
It’s barbaric, but hey, it’s home!
A new island emerges, and the joy just surges
‘Specially from young Sarah tonight!
Come on down, stop on by, hop on your blimp and fly
To the brand new Arabian Nights!

Arabian Niiiiiiiiiights has just been annouuuuuunced!
Oh yes, the logo and the island’s info has just come arouuuuuuuund!
Arabian Niiiiiiiiiights will have three episooooooooodes!
First is How Bazaar!, and robbed from afar, is the Sultan’s abooooooode!

After the forty thieves ransack his city, a desperate sultan has one request: find the thieves’ lair, and bring back his most cherished possession!

*ahem* Okay, enough with the Disney’s Aladdin references, I have a feeling a lot more will be made in the future by my fellow authors. Ah well, just follow me on my magic carpet and we’ll see what else is on that tour page – which is actually not too much more. The only other things we see are a few scenery images, a picture of 1/40ths of the Forty Thieves clan (seen right), and the desktop wallpaper (which features the entirety 40 thieves, if you count closely enough) and the printable poster, both of which you can see by clicking below.

So I don’t know about you, but I’m intrigued… What will the gold cards be? When will the trailer release? When will it come out? Only time will tell.

BT out!

New Islands, PoptropiCon Island

PoptropiCon Island announced!

Hi Gs,

This is a quick post to alert you guys that some official details for the next Poptropica island (which will again be episodic) was just posted to the Creators’ Blog. Get ready for PoptropiCon Island (although we knew about it before 😛 )! You can find some sneak peeks in the PHB’s PoptropiCon post category, and we’ll be sure to post even more in the weeks to come. Check out the sweet logo below:

Everyone is dressed up for the biggest sci-fi and fantasy convention in Poptropica. At PoptropiCon, the most important thing isn’t what you do — it’s how you look doing it!

I’m really excited for this island — it feels very Mocktropica-like. Also, looking at the description, is the main focus of the island going to be costumes & fashion? Tell me your thoughts in the comments. 😀

Arabian Nights Island, Forgotten Islands, Merchandise, New Islands, Nintendo DS Game, Sneak Peeks

First Arabian Nights Daily Pops… and a new DS game?

Hey guys, BT here with a few updates from the Poptropica universe.

Somewhere right now in South Carolina, our CYDI winner Sarah must be squealing in delight, because the first two Daily Pops obviously for her winning island, Arabian Nights Island, have surfaced:

Desert and… desert station. This is really an obvious Arabian Nights Daily Pop – which leaves me to wonder if this island’s episodes are gonna criss-cross PoptropiCon’s episodes, just like Survival and Mission Atlantis.

Now anyways, if you’ve looked at the Creator’s Blog recently, you’ll notice that they changed their side format… again. Of course we have our two apps, the books, the shirts, and the video games links all snug next to each othe—

Wait…what is that picture next to the Video Games link? That doesn’t look familiar… It doesn’t look like the original Poptropica Adventures cover…

20140716-075217-28337565.jpg

Yet I can kinda see the Ubisoft logo on the new cover….

It looks to me like there’s gonna be a Poptropica Adventures 2!!

But wait… when I look closer… I see two words… For some strange reason, it reminded me of the Forgotten Islands app… Yet I see pictures of the red ninja, the Aztec warrior, that pirate from Forgotten Islands and…I can’t tell who’s the last one.

What’s going on here?? I have no clue. After all, not an ounce of this is mentioned on the videogame page itself…

BT out with this puzzlement….

Oh, and don’t forget to check out HP’s post about PoptropiCon’s…er… officialness. Yay!
