Bringing Mighty Action Force cards to life: 4-Player Edition ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿƒ

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Invisible Ring. Enjoy!

It’s a bird? It’s a plane?ย  No, it’s me! Invisible Ring, creator of the REAL-LIFE Mighty Action Force card game, has RETURNED!

That’s right, readers! This Poptropican was but a fellow Mighty Action Force fan, who emerged from PoptropiCon Island and forged her OWN Mighty Action Force card game that she could play in real life, anytime and anywhere she wantedโ€ฆ then shared it with the PHB online, so that EVERYONE can print out and play their own Mighty Action Force game, too. (There’s also an Astro-Knights edition!)

But she had not yet shared ALL of her Mighty Action Force games, which brings us to the here and now. If you’re already acquainted with these games, then you may be looking for a bigger challenge. Heck, you may even be itching to play this game with more than one player at a time.ย And that is where the 4-PLAYER Mighty Action Force game comes in! Download below:

Packed with new cards, new rules, and new game variations, this third and final edition of my real-live MAF series not only provides a new mighty challenge but brings all other Mighty Action Force games together โ€” perfect for parties and family fun!

Some assembly required. This offer is invalid where prohibited, some restrictions may apply, batteries not included.

Check out the demo of the multiplayer game in action:

Fanfic: The Black Hare, Part 1

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Pink Star. Enjoy!

THE BLACK HARE
A Poptropica Fanfiction Story

Hello fellow Poptropican, my name is the Black Hare. But most people call me Harrie. You probably know my parents, Dr. Hare and the Black Widow. Yeah. The villains. But donโ€™t worry, Iโ€™m not gonna kidnap you and mind control you. Iโ€™m not gonna steal your art either. Much to my parents’ disgust, Iโ€™m all about doing good. Thatโ€™s where my story starts. But before I get to that, let me give you a brief backstory.

Fifteen years ago, you and Amelia made a potion then you gave it to the villains as a drink. They drank it, but little did they know, if they ever had children, the potion would make them good. Fortunately, all the villains kids were born after the potion was made so they were all good!

Unfortunately, the villains found out about the potion, and made a new one to turn their kids evil. None of the kids knew about the potion, so everyone drank it. Everyoneโ€ฆ exceptโ€ฆ me. I heard Mom and Dad talking about it. (Villains talk VERY loud.)

I loved being nice. I held the door for others at school, fed the birds, and did my chores. So I didnโ€™t drink anything unless I was sure I knew what it was for the whole month. I acted all nasty in front of Mom and Dad, and my โ€˜friendsโ€™ (that turned evil overnight, so I wasnโ€™t quite friends with them. But with other people and when by myself, I was nice. It was hard living like that.

That was when I was seven. Now that I’ve turned 13, I’m an official villain, and it has been 15 years since my parents drank that potion.

For six years, I never had the courage to tell them I was good. But now that I’m a teenager, I feel ready. After all, I am their daughter… whatโ€™s the worst they can say?  

TO BE CONTINUED

Pop Protip: Listen to Poptropica Music without logging in ๐ŸŽต

Have you ever, while playing Poptropica, found yourself pausing to appreciate the music in the background? We’ve got a way to let you jam to your favorite tunes from the game without having to log in! ๐ŸŽง

Over on our Poptropica Music page, we’ve gathered a huge collection of Poptropica soundtracks, sorted by islands, for you to enjoy. They’re embedded right on the page, so simply hit the play button under each title to listen! โ–ถ๏ธ Here are a few of my personal favorites:

๐ŸŒ€ Carnival Ride โ€“ Poptropica Theme (download)

๐Ÿงž Genie Dance โ€” from Arabian Nights Island (download)

๐Ÿ‘พ Mega Fighting Bots โ€“ Battle โ€“ Orchestral Variation (download)

๐Ÿ… Poptropolis Games Main Theme (download)

๐Ÿ˜œ Washington DC Lengthened โ€” from Goofball Island (download)


Not only can you listen and even download tracks right on our Poptropica Music page, you can also save them to your personal devices!

โฌ‡๏ธ Download all the music files below and more, as a selection or all at once, via our folder of Poptropica OST (Original Soundtrack) mp3 files.

If you save them to your computer, you can then import them into your music player app of choice. From there, you may also sync your imported files to your other devices, such as a phone or tablet, to listen to the tracks whenever and wherever you like. ๐Ÿ“ฒ

Bunk: Perhaps you, too, will love the 90s.

We hope this music collection helps you relive the magic of Poptropica! A huge shout-out goes to Jeff Heim, Poptropica’s main music composer who created so many of these melodies. Enjoy the tunes! ๐Ÿฉต๐ŸŽต
