Twisted Thicket is a journey into the heart of an enchanted forest. Who knows what dangers await? We’ll have much more information about this new adventure soon!
CAPTAIN CRAWFISH
Twithed Thicket Island, huh? Or is there no “Island” after the name like you did with Mystery Train. Looks like this island will feature fairies, gnomes, a Nøkken, and a town and wood. Maybe we’ll encounter more woodland whimsical creatures.
In the meantime, the Creators also gave us PIE costumes! For PI day!
3.14… well, I forgot the rest although the picture is above me…
Oh well, BT out! I’m gonna practice saying Twisted Thicket.
On Wednesday, the Creators did a reminder post about the comics in the Daily Pop.
Believe it or not, there was a time when the daily newspaper had pages and pages devoted to comic strips. I know what you’re thinking: “What’s a daily newspaper?”
Used to be that somebody brought a stack of folded papers to your house every day early in the morning, which had all this information about news and sports and things that had already happened, and to read it you had to turn the pages instead of swiping a screen, and — well, it’s not important.
Anyway, we at Poptropica still think that the funny pages are worth your time and attention. That’s why, for some time now, we’ve been publishing some of the very best comic strips in the Daily Pop.
Make sure to check it out (again)! My personal favorite is Peanuts! 😀
3. Dryads
What you might be thinking: ” What dryads?”
What I’m saying: The ones that are involved in the new island in some way! On Thursday, the Creators posted up a picture of this unique creature:
How do you know it’s a dryad? Look at the original link, and it says dryad in the link! So what do you think this little guy has to do in the plot? Leave your suggestions in the comments!!
4. Vespers!
Who’s familiar with The 39 Clues series? It’s a brother(Dan) and sister (Amy) who discover that they are part of the biggest family of history with a secret! They go around the world in search of the 39 clues, which, when mixed together, uncover a treasure! The series went up to 11 books, with a companion book. Now, in this sequel series, Cahills vs. Vespers, six of their own have been kidnapped, and it’s up to Amy and Dan to rescue them by doing tasks for a mysterious fellow known as Vesper 1. The card that you will receive is about the 3rd installment of this series: The Dead of Night! I highly suggest that you read it! I myself will be getting it on Saturday! 😛
Last but not least…
5. Ads
A new ad has stopped by the Poptropica world! Goldfish: Team Xtreme!
Basically, what you do is shoot hoops, and at the end you get a basketball!
[EDITS START HERE]
Here’s LS with a video walkthrough:
Another ad is also on Poptropica called Dizzy Dancers (credit to Scary Catfish for the info and pic!)
"All you need to do to complete the ad is walk in and click the photo booth. This will take you to an area where you can design your own Dizzy Dancer. After you finish designing it, you receive two items… A “Dragaloo Follower” (What a lovely name…) and Dizzy Dancer hair for your Poptropican. A sign inside the ad says that you can come back March 19 for a special quest.." ~ Scary Catfish
March 19? Don’t they usually put the quest in when they put the ad in? Hmm…
Also, there’s some new things in the store for St. Patricks day coming this Saturday! They are a leprechaun costume and Shamrock Gum! (Thanks Lewis for the info and Flamez for the Goldfish and store item pics!)

So, until your next post, this is ST logging off! 🙂
I decided to post about a very special and informative feature on Poptropica often neglected on this blog – Daily Pop’s Sneak Peeks! As I roamed, I screenshot five of some very interesting photos that looks like they need to be shared and could probably tell a lot about what to expect out of our favorite virtual game in 2012. Herrrreee weee go!
Behind Bars - Something here might hold the key to an entire adventure.
If you look very closely at the photo, you could see a golden key.
CC: *smacks MT behind his head* Of course, ignoramus! It’s very obvious.
MT: *rubs back of head* I was just trying to be helpful and informative – wait, where’d you even come from?
This could – obviously – be the start of an adventure. So, if a future island comes along and mentions various hints about a certain key *wink, wink*, remember this photo!
Escape Artist - This cage is impregnable, whether you want to get out or in.
MT: *puts on football helmet and protective gear* Okay, I’m ready.
CC: *rolls eyes*
This beautifully designed photo contains a Poptropican disguised in a Magician costume ( which happens to be available in the Poptropica Store for 75 Credits ;D ) trapped in a cage with a lock on it. Be warned, Poptropicans! You may get captured in the near future! Be careful and limit who you trust – especially Captains.
Hot Tickets - You don't get a first-run theater out here in the boonies.
I think I might be both excited and scared for a creepy island. The scariest part about this picture, I must say, is the Twilight poster. It gives me the shivers, man! Back on topic, if you have no idea what boonies is, it basically means the middle of nowhere. Does this mean an abandoned island with magicians, keys, and cages? And do I see an iPhone? Oh wait, there’s more..
Hungry Like The Wolf - How a real wolf might become Poptropicanized.
I probably won’t be able to sleep tonight due to that hungry face the wolf is making towards me. If you thought the artists on Poptropica can’t draw because you think they actually draw people like that, you’re wrong! Very funny how my current Poptropican’s name is Happy Wolf, though these wolves do not look very happy. Does this mean an abandoned island with cages, keys, magicians, AND wolves? The only thing bad about this so far is Twilight. Don’t worry, it gets better..
A Cabin In The Woods - What a peaceful place to live. We hope.
Creators, I have no idea what’s peaceful about a moderately-beautiful cabin mysteriously vacant in the middle of nowhere. When they said that they hoped it would be peaceful, I got startled by the house – just like how I apparently get startled by everything.
CC: *sneaks up behind MT* Boo!
MT: *jumps high in the air, hangs by chandelier* That wasn’t funny! D:
I really need to wrap this up before I lose my cool. *breathes* You might be wondering, How could it NOT be peaceful? I mean it’s moderately-beautiful! Not that many people have cabins! There’s a crucifix on the door! And it looks very nice in the Winter! Your eyes could deceive you, especially on these islands. The Creators sure are tricky and they’ll just keep you guessing!
I hope you enjoyed this fun-to-make, carefully-typed post! Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go fight a certain man by the name of Captain Crawfish!
CC: With what? You don’t have anything!
MT: *pulls bat somehow out of helmet*
CC: *gulps, makes a run for it*
MT: *jumps down, chases after Crawfish* Who’s the scared one now, bro? Who is!
P.S. S.O.S. Island this Thursday! That’s two days from now! 🙂
Well, well, well. What have we here in this new PCB post? It’s a new year, and as ST mentioned: Happy New Year, everyone! Of course, now that that’s over with, Dr. Hare is at it again! Poptropica’s little evil minded genius will start once again this year to travel all over the world’s different locations.
This photo came along with his most recent visit.
Eek! Don’t get too close to that thing, Dr. Hare. I’m afraid it’s not as fake as it seems and may eat you alive ;). Just kidding. Hmmm…upon closer examination he appears to be in some sort of museum. The cat is obviously a motionless yet realistic prop…what museum could this be? I could think of one major one: The Smithsonian Instituition of Natural History. Long name indeed. Before they oficially post the answers, it’s time for you guys to take your best shot :D.
It’s been quite some time since Dr. Hare posted another “Where in The World is Dr. Hare” post. But here we go again! The evil minded rabbit is visitng more and more places. This time he’s visited another one. Here’s a photo of his visit:
Hmmm…I wonder where this picture was taken. It’s obviously by a lake or ocean or large body of water. There three giant structures in the backround that appear to be supporting an object of some kind. Strange, very strange. Take your guesses now! The answer will shortly be posted on the PCB.
Edit: It turns out that the evil bunny was at Singapore’s Marina Bay! Here’s another picture. Yay Asia! ^^
