Okay, that’s great for the non-member audience out there…
 
Random Audience Member: But what about Vampire’s Curse Island???
 
Well, yesterday, the Creators released the trailer… and… let’s just say it’s different from the other trailers.

Watch the trailer for Vampire’s Curse Island!

 

The trailer for Vampire’s Curse Island is here!

Pretty spooky, eh?

Vampire’s Curse Island is coming soon to Poptropica. We’ll have a lot more information soon!

Aha. So this Count Graham cracker (excuse me, Bram) guy is taking an innocent girl? One word: Dracula.
 
Well, along with the trailer yesterday, the Creators also posted the story page for Vampire’s Curse Island, with once again, an epilogue! Hey, the epilogue’s always somewhere!
 
The story page reads:
 
For centuries, a truce has existed between the people of a remote mountain village and the vampire who lives in the castle high above. Now, that truce is shattered, and Count Bram has captured a young villager. Can you rescue her from his evil clutches — and avoid being struck by the vampire’s curse?
 
Okay. The Creators gave us TWO things to worry about. One, getting this Katya girl away from Count Bram, and two, avoid Bram’s vampire curse.
 
Also, there’s going to be an epilogue bonus quest for members only after you finish the island. It reads:
 
Poptropica members can play a bonus quest after completing Vampire’s Curse Island. The vampire is gone, but his curse lives on. Prepare to discover even more secrets of Bram’s castle — if a dangerous vampire hunter doesn’t get there first!
 
 Yikes. Well, the page also shows the store items for members including a count/countess costume, vampire bat PopGum, and garlic breath. They’ll probably be released when Early Access time comes around.
 
 
There are also some screenshots, a desktop wallpaper, and a printout poster!
 
But the release date is still a mystery…
 
Audience Member: A mystery wanted to be solved!
 
Calm down… eventually, the Creators will announce more stuff about this island.
 
BT out!
 
 

Update: Here’s Loud Shark’s Lorax Ad walkthrough!

Beware The Vampires

Ever hear the old saying that if you get bit by a vampire, you eventually turn into one? A frightening scenario. Perhaps that’s just what will happen on…Vampire Curse Island. The name itself perhaps implifies a premium of chills and thrills. Definitely not for the faint hearted…but then again, Poptropica is meant for all ages big and small, meaning that perhaps this island won’t be as fright filled as it seems. Or perhaps it very well will.

Rainbow Dash’s first guess on the island, based on the name itself, is something to do with turning into a vampire. Perhaps its lethal bite causes you to grow into one, and you must find some sort of cure and at the same time run from vampire hunters? Definitely not your typical island.

Of course, before I go, just a little bit of something on the comical side.

You better take Fluttershy before you embark on this spoooky quest…ha ha…RD dashing off.

Your Island Pack

Yes, as mentioned, the new SOS island is oficially released to the public. Very big deal to the Poptropica community. Members also have an exclusive access to an indept second story full with unprecedented twists and turns. So you can expect everyone to be out solving the synopsis of both tales as players set foot onto the new island.

What also came a bit earlier were the special Members Only packs. As you may have noticed, these come out with nearly every island. The sonar power lets you track your motion radar and see what other CPU’s or players are coming near you. The fishing pole is another nifty accessory that goes along with the theme of the island. Then of course you have your captain’s costume, dressed in full naval regalia. Splendid.

If you’re still reading this, you’re probably very excited. In this case, I recommend you go and feed it by treating yourself by taking a full dosage of the new SOS Island. So leave this page, and go beat that island 😉

With any story, there’s an epilogue somewhere.

For the past islands, what happens after you save the day has been unknown. Now, with SOS island, for the first time ever, there’s a bonus quest AFTER the main story!

More S.O.S. Island details leak out…

The release of S.O.S. Island draws ever closer. If you haven’t been keeping up with developments on our S.O.S. Island info page, then you may not have heard that this Island will include a special bonus quest for Members!
Everyone will still get the same great action and storytelling you expect from Poptropica — and S.O.S. Island has some amazing twists you’ve never seen before. But Members will get to go beyond the story, to find out what happens after the first tale is finished.
We’ll have more news about S.O.S. Island very soon!

A few keen eyes were able to point out this new bonus thing before the Creators post was posted. Those set of keen eyes DID NOT include me.
 I’m pretty darn slow at some things.
Random Person: Like a turtle??
Brave Tomato: No, not like a turtle.-
Random Person 2: Like a snail??
Brave Tomato: Not like a snail either! I’m usually slow at things UNLESS it’s about a revealing of a new island.Sometimes.
So… even after we finish SOS’s main plot, there’s STILL a problem. Bring it on. I’m ready whenever it comes out!
BT OUT!

It’s called “Check This Out”, pointing to the video. This Lincoln Pierce one gives tips on drawing. I wonder if anybody else is going to do stuff like this. Well, we’ll just have to check it out!
*silence*
… Okay. I guess you don’t appreciate that little pun.
*an audience member throws a tomato at BT*
Just close the curtains please. Thank you.
