Atlantis in Seas-on at Adventure Outfitters 🌊

Slanted Fish

Happy November, Poptropicans! Dive in for the latest store update, member gifts, and island hype. We’re going under the sea!

Adventure Outfitters is ready for the upcoming return of Mission Atlantis, with the store importing plenty of fresh ‘fits from the deep sea. All players can enjoy the Scuba Adventure (250 credits), Puffer Fish (200), and over on the statuette by Amelia, the Cuttlefish Head Rider (100). On the two sides of the shop floor, we also have the Fish Out of Water and Dolphin followers (100 each). 🤿🐠🐡

Plus, take your clubhouse under the sea with new Jellyfish, Grey Shark, and Clownfish decorations (100 each). And for the sweater weather, try on the Snug Vibes and Pumpkin Smash costumes (250 each)! 🍂🧣

It’s great to see so many items for non-members! Still, the more privileged among us need not be as salty as seawater. A new set of monthly member gifts are here, with a Paper Prowler animal mask, Purr Paper Pal follower, and Pup Paper Pal follower! 🎁🐶

The hype for Mission Atlantis isn’t just coming from Amelia — it’s also on Poptropica’s social media. On Twitter and Instagram, they announced that this classic island would be coming to Haxe “any day now.” By the sound of it, that could mean sometime this week!

That’s all for now! Enjoy the Atlantis artifacts from Amelia’s store, and if you’re a member, look forward to the next mission coming up on Haxe.

Sea you in the next one!

Little pastel pets and a big red dog 🐶🐾

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans, we’ve got a store update, TikTok throwback, and — a whole ad island for an iconic big red dog? Let’s pop in for a look!

A new week brings a new rotation of outfits at Adventure Outfitters, with both grim and whimsical contenders for Halloween costuming.

For all players, we see the return of the Ice Cream, Tie-Dye Hoodie, and Fairytale costumes, while pets get new cuddly creature capes — the Lemon Shark, Bubble Gum Unicorn, and Fuzzy Monster (for members) — to go with their Poptropican counterparts still available in-store. Check out the Creators’ Blog for the full stock »

Continuing the “Spookiest Moments in Poptropica” short video series, Poptropica recently posted a part 3 on TikTok, highlighting the haunting moment from Ghost Story Island (this month’s PHB Island Flash-back!) when you’re peeking through the telescope and Fiona’s quiet voice pops out for real from the computer. (Also, hey, it’s Thinknoodles!)

There’s 2 kinds of people: those that were terrified by Ghost Story and LIARS. 🔊🆙 to relive the fright of your life as a kid 😰😫 #nostalgia #scary

On the subject of frightening yet fleeting clips, Poptropica’s earlier TikTok of Squid Game in Poptropica is also now available as a YouTube short. So if you’re only on one of these platforms, you’ll still get to see it!

There’s a new spot on the map — and while it’s not Mission Atlantis, there’s still ad-venture to be had! In anticipation of the upcoming movie Clifford the Big Red Dog, Clifford Island is here for a limited time only with games and prizes. Upon landing, a big gift awaits: a Clifford Emoji!

Clifford’s owner Emily will also challenge you to a race to the movie theater. Make it to the top of the hill before she does, and you’ll win Clifford Paw Prints! You can hold the paw prints in your hand and also leave a print by pressing the spacebar.

As you explore the “island,” you’ll find a weightlifter by the small pool who hints that there’s another surprise to be discovered if you follow Clifford’s red paw prints. Sure enough, they’ll lead you to a third prize: Clifford’s Grow Power, which makes your character bigger, like the godly powers from Mythology Island! You can even try it out in common rooms for other players to see you tower above them.

That’s a wrap for this update! Enjoy the store items, visit the Big Red Dog on Clifford Island, and stay spooky, Poptropicans. 🐾🩸

Amelia’s not squidding around with unicorns 🦄🦑🎃

Slanted Fish

Happy spooky season, Poptropicans! In addition to the PHB’s special Halloween site skin, this update brings you store (and more) treats, plus tantalizing tricks through bonus dialogue and memes. Let’s pop in!

October’s mood is Halloween spirit, and Poptropica promises that this entire month’s store updates are going to be Halloween themed — starting now! At Adventure Outfitters, you’ll find tons of spooky costumes, and even more spilling over to the shop floor on both sides. Among them is a new blue Fuzzy Monster (Sully, is that you?) and the return of the Bubble Unicorn for members (you know Amelia, she loves her unicorns). See more on the Pop Creators’ Blog »

While we’re here for more treats than tricks, member gifts are here! Players of privilege can dress up with the Bread Head, Lion Mane, and Dino outfits — matching with recent pet items.

After you’ve made your rounds at the store, consider paying Amelia a visit upstairs in her home. If you’ve completed Amelia’s mini quest, you can come back to her place to find her enjoying some tea. Strike up a conversation and she’ll talk about unicorns, naturally, as well as hint at more quests to come! 🦄☕️

Thanks for the tip and pics, Giant Dragon!

Over on Twitter, Poptropica’s been playing a different game. Sharing images from the recent popular Netflix drama Squid Game, they created two memes about playing Poptropica beyond broken internet and reasonable bedtimes. Fortunately, playing Pop won’t get you eliminated because many islands themselves have already been decimated…

Also fortunately, you don’t need to have watched the show (which is recommended for ages 16+) to enjoy these memes. Nope, new Pop might not have epic tribes like the Flying Squid, but at least we got these Stationary Squids for amusement. 🦑

That wraps up this post! Stay tuned for the PHB’s annual Halloween costume contest coming up soon — you could even get a head start by snagging the latest scary store styles. Pop on, Poptropicans! 🎃✨

Switching it up in spooky style 🎃😎

Gentle Dolphin

Hello, everyone!

After two weeks of judging (and a questionably handled submission reel), the Creators finally announced the winners of the Red October Halloween Costume Contest. Without further ado, the six winning designs are Heart Witch by Big Rider, Zombie Nerd by Cheerful Boot, Pumpkin Punk by Gentle Dolphin (me! 😁), Midnight Kitten by Quiet Crumb, Phantom by Maroon Cloud, and Will-O’-Wisp by Sleepy Biker.

We look forward to seeing these spook-tacular costumes get brought to life this Halloween! ❤️🧟‍♀️🎃🐈‍⬛🎩🔥

After announcing the winners, the Creators’ Blog post goes on to say that the Red Baron will be on Home Island throughout the month of October! Not only is the Baron bringing the winning costumes, she’s also bringing some other spooky items from Poptropica’s past. Perhaps we’ll see a Count Bram costume or a Jersey Devil plushie?

While we wait for the Red Baron to arrive with her spooky bounty, Amelia’s Adventure Outfitters introduced a new outfit to celebrate skateboarding becoming an official Olympic sport. Members can purchase the radical Street Style outfit for 250 credits. Now avatars can at least look the part of a pro skater. 🛹

The Pop Creators don’t always post on Twitter. But when they do, it’s to like and share tweets promoting their game. This week, they’ve been engaging with a few fans who want to see Poptropica on the Nintendo Switch. Seems they like the idea:

The idea of Poptropica on the Switch isn’t too far off. Some of you may recall that there were two official Poptropica DS games: Poptropica Adventures and Poptropica: Forgotten Islands. While a Switch port would be cool, the Creators’ priorities should perhaps be to port the old islands to the base game, which is pretty lacking in its current state. But still, imagine Poptropica appearing in an upcoming Nintendo Direct!

Before I end this post, I want to talk about a new ad that has been turning heads. Some players have encountered videos ads for Venom: Let There Be Carnage playing in both the video bar below the game screen as well as in between scenes. It’s pretty shocking that a violent PG-13 movie is being advertised in a game aimed towards children. We’re not sure how much control the Creators have over these video ads, but let’s hope they are able to take these particular ads down.

That’s all I have for now! Are you looking forward to the Red Baron’s visit this October? Would you like to see a Poptropica Switch game? Let us know in the comments below!

Stay tuned for a background look into one of the upcoming Dream Island winners. We’re sure it will have you rolling on the floor with anticipation. 😜🏠

Thank you for reading, and have a good day!
