Pop Petition: Trading Cards for Iconic Poptropica Characters 🃏

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Rough Clown. Enjoy!

Hey guys! I’m Rough Clown, and I wanted to talk about trading cards in this post. When I first saw the Mighty Action Force cards in PoptropiCon Island, I thought they were really cool.

I feel like it would be so cool if Poptropica made their own trading cards — except, instead of the fictional characters from PoptropiCon island, it would be all of the well-known characters in all of Poptropica. For example, we could have trading cards on Dr. Hare, Director D, Black Widow, Captain Crawfish, Rumpelstiltskin, Tessa Turncoat, Binary Bard, Red, Ned Noodlehead, C.J., El Mustachio Grande, and Amelia!

I imagine these cards to be more complex than the ones in PoptropiCon, more inspired by Yu-Gi-Oh or Pokémon cards. Some of the characters could have the cool superpowers that they have in-game (e.g. Ned Noodlehead’s comic book prowess on Super Power Island) and some could have fun moves like a “Pizza Attack” for Red from Fairytale Island, that could do damage to other players.

I would invest a lot of money into these cards if Poptropica made them. Poptropica, if you see this, please consider making a card series! 😊

PHB Special: Guess That Poptropican, Round 4 👥❓

LJ

Yoohoo Poptropicans! It’s LJ popping in with yet another abrupt return from the dark abyss for a Guess That Poptropican game. How polished is your knowledge on the characters of Poptropica? Do you think you can figure out any random character based off a small list of clues? There are three levels — easy, medium, and hard — based on the particular character and the number of clues given. Have at it and have fun! 😁

Easy

Poptropican 1

  • I am a celebrity
  • I have ran for president
  • I’ve apparently solved global warming
  • I like pizza
  • I have my own historic landmark

Medium

Poptropican 2

  • I have radioactive powers
  • My color scheme is mostly monochromatic
  • I have multiple personalities
  • I’ve become rich selling illegally copied music

Hard

Poptropican 3

  • I have an arch enemy that doesn’t walk on land
  • I had a near death experience while on the hunt for my enemy
  • I am the one to gift you the medallion on my island of origin

How was it? I hope none were too difficult. Leave your answers in the comments below and tell me what you think. Would you like more games like this in the future? Let me know and I’ll see what I can do. 😉

Pop on!

– LJ 🍀

Shop and pups, even for little ones 🐶

Hey Poptropicans — pop in for a shop and some pups! 🐾

For the fall season, Adventure Outfitters brings a slew of sweaters and hoodies to its latest store rotation. Plus, September is Poptropica’s birthday month, so be sure to log in for birthday freebies and join in the PHB’s art collab to celebrate! 🎉

There’s a new mission on the map: an ad “island” for the upcoming “PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie“! Head inside the building and you can play two mini-games for a few prizes.

Talk to Liberty the pup to help find the six pups hiding around the headquarters. Simply click on their shadowed images peeking out from various equipment, and they’ll pop out. You’ll win a Super Suit and Skye Power (with floating action by pressing space bar) for your efforts.

You can also talk to Ryder, the boy, to help him and Chase through a city race. Move your cursor to control your vehicle, avoid crashing into cars and puddles, and grab the purple orbs to power-up and zoom through the streets. Make it to the end, and you’ll gain a Patroller Follower!

The PAW Patrol ad games are also available on Poptropica Junior, Poptropica’s website for Pre-K kids launched last year. You don’t need a Pop account to play on Pop Jr. Plus, the “Activities” section of the site has also added PAW Patrol-themed coloring pages, a recipe for shortbread cookies, plus guides for mask-making and handprint art.

A year after its launch, Poptropica Junior hasn’t seen much fanfare, adding just a handful of activities, but barely updating its own social media page. It’s interesting to see it get a bit of attention from the parent brand’s latest sponsor, but will the site keep growing and possibly nurture a new generation of Pop players? We’ll have to see.
