Airing 30th for All: Escape From Pelican Rock!

gianthawkpoptropica

Greetings Hawk-tropicans! This is Giant Hawk speaking, and today, I don’t actually have too much news to share with all of you. The little I have, though, is most certainly warranting of its own post.

First off, the Creators have announced, via the Creators’ Blog, that Escape from Pelican Rock Island will be out for everyone on Wednesday, December 30! You better get your digging spoons ready!

If you don’t want to wait, you can play Escape From Pelican Rock for free now on the mobile app!

Until next ti – Hold on a second… That’s not all!

On the Daily Pop, there seems to be a pattern – or should I say, air pattern – beginning to form. Could these sneak peeks hint towards an upcoming Poptropica Island encompassing the idea of aviation?

Deplane: It’s going down for real.
Plane Facts: On the wings of a dream.
Fly the Coop: Propelled to a whole new level.
Aces High: We’re baron our souls on this one.

Seems probable. The picture titled “Deplane” even suggests that this aviation theme is related to the jungle theme we’ve been seeing. We might need a bit more to go on, though. In the meantime, you can catch up on even more sneak peeks over at our Daily Pop Archive.

Whatever we’ll get from the Creators soon, though, we here on the Poptropica Help Blog will be ready to bring the news to you!

Until next time…

A Menu for MPIP Stories & More!

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans!

Over the past week or so, the authors here on the Poptropica Help Blog have been posting their Poptropica stories – how they came to Poptropica, its community, and the roles they’ve played in it. It’s called My Place in Poptropica (MPIP), and even the Creators have been enjoying them! 😀

Anyway, we’re extending this chance to tell your Poptropica story to you, dear Poptropicans of the community! If you would like to write your own “My Place in Poptropica”, contact us ([email protected]) and we may publish your MPIP story here on the PHB! From how you found Poptropica to how it plays a part in your life, we want to hear your stories!

Please include a minimum of 550 words, type with good spelling and grammar, divide it into labeled sections, and include your username.

If you missed any of the 9 stories the PHB authors have shared so far, here’s a list to link you up:

What else is new? Well, the menu on classic non-SUI islands (those not colored on the map) has gotten a revamp to be similar to those on SUIs (sound-updated islands)!

It’s now a chest like the one on SUIs and opens up in the same way, but it’s on the left instead of right, and the options are still different from SUIs. Cool, but will take some getting used to. 😛

Also, there’s a new ad on Main Street of Escape From Pelican Rock! Watch the video for Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip, and you’ll get an Alvin Outfit.

Over on the Daily Pop: could these sneak peeks be hinting at a personal home feature where we can show off all the island medallions we’ve earned and kick up our feet in cozy fireplace spaces? Hmm…

In the Club: If you’ve got it, flaunt it.
Fireside Chat: Pull up a chair.

Catch up on sneak peeks from months and years past with our Daily Pop archive!

Anyway, that’s all for this post! We’ve had lots of posts recently, from news to MPIP stories to this year’s PHB Christmas Special, so be sure to catch up below and share your My Place in Poptropica with us!

Stay popping, Poptropicans. 😀

BTS Overview & Theory: Escape From Pelican Rock Island

Spotted Dragon

(EFPR Island is coming out today for members! Check out BT’s post below for details!)

efpr bts

Hey everyone, and welcome back to our BTS Overview & Theory series! This time, we’ll be covering Escape From Pelican Rock Island, written by the PHB team and organized by myself, SD. Be sure to check out our previous BTS posts, our most recent being for Timmy Failure.

WARNING: SPOILERS BELOW (but that’s what you want, isn’t it?)

Overview of evidence

As always, we will start out with the basics and lead up to the scenes, dialog, etc. Be sure to visit the Escape From Pelican Rock Tour Page for more info!

Pelican Rock is the toughest prison ever built. And after you’re framed for a crime you didn’t commit, it’s your new home! Use your wits to devise an escape plan, and your nerve to pull it off. But getting out is just the beginning — because the real criminal is still out there!

There is a printable poster available and members get a free costume in the store. Plus, there is currently a sneak preview and prizes if you visit the island!

Daily Pop Sneak Peeks

Judging from the art style and subjects of the following sneak peeks, we know that they are for Pelican Rock. 😉

 

Scenes & Dialog

Now we can get into the detailed stuff! Below are the image layers and dialog for each location on the island.

MainStreet:

Hill:

Tower:

Final Theory

Based on all this evidence and what we’ve seen in the preview for the island, we can predict the following for our quest. There is a robbery, but the thief gets away and your Poptropican is framed for the crime. You’re put behind bars and you have to use the items that you can get a hold of to escape. Once out, you have to make a plan to prove your innocence. Eventually the real thief shows up, the Booted Bandit, and the cops take him away. And for all your trouble, you get an island medallion!

Remember that Escape From Pelican Rock Island is going to be out for members today! 😀

Over on the Daily Pop, we’re seeing some sneak peeks of nature! Not sure what all these trees and huts are about just yet, but at least one of these pictures seems to be for the next Poptropica graphic novel. Plus, it looks like the Home Island revamp mentioned earlier is getting more polished, with a shop building on a ship! (For more, check out our Daily Pop Sneak Peeks Archive!)

Hut and Stuff: Quit your jibber jabber.
Under Construction: Open during renovations.
South Pacific: This is some enchanted evening.
Hands Up: The end of the line.
Old Growth: It’s a jungle out there.

Prison Low, Monster High

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans!

Something new is on the horizon – and it’s more than just a caption stolen from the Daily Pop. In addition to the prison-themed island sneak peeks we’ve looked at before, September wraps up with even more glimpses of what’s to come, including what appears to be something like Alcatraz Island (a prison on an island) in San Francisco (noting the bridge), further confirming BT’s theory about the setting of this upcoming island. See our Daily Pop Archive for more sneak peeks!

No news yet on when the island is releasing, but stay updated with the PHB as we find out!

Next, there’s a new Monster High ad on Main Streets such as Early Poptropica! This one contains two videos. The left video gives you Catty’s Show Power (press spacebar to watch a few Monster High characters rocking out on a stage), and the video on the right awards a large-winged Luna Costume.

Or, if you’re a guy, you might find a Playmation Avengers ad instead. Watch the video to get your own Repulsor Blaster! (Thanks to Hyper Gamer for the tip and picture.)
