🦄 Ponytropica 🦄

Happy Friday 13th, if it’s still Friday in your time zone.

To celebrate the occasion, how about your first weekly PHB poll?

!!!

This is so exciting!!!

Are you ready?

…

This will help me figure out what types of polls you guys are most interested in (but please note that I don’t intend to do polls that aren’t somehow related to Poptropica and/or the PHB anytime soon, if ever).

This poll closes a week from now, and shortly after that I’ll have a post up with the results of this one, and the next poll!

Please comment away if you have any questions, comments, concerns, additions to your responses, or whatever! Thank you so much for voting! ❤

Comics, Popstorms, PoptropiCon Island, Zomberry Island

Reign of Curls, Comics, Tweets and Zomberries!

March 12, 2015March 18, 2015 Slippery Raptor

Hello Poptropicans! Slippery here.

First of all, Poptropica has announced over Twitter that the concluding episode of PoptropiCon—Ep. 3: Reign of Omegon—will be released on March 19th for members and on April 9th for all. Just keep in mind that these dates are only tentative and may change. If you want more news about the final episode, check out the island page here on the PHB.

PopCon3-Screensaver Next, Poptropica tweeted Popstorm #17! It’s all about curly hairs. Pretty awesome.

PopStorm 17 Poptropica has also uploaded weeks 29 to 32 of the Poptropica Comics series (not to be confused with Mystery of the Map, which you can read in its entirety on the PHB’s Comics page!) and you can check them out on Funbrain! Oliver and Jorge will continue their adventures with the Veggiestein and the characters from the Wizard of Oz. Thanks to Fairy Tale for the tip!

popcomics2932 Also, Poptropica revealed their plans for the app for this year. It includes multiplayer games, common rooms, and more items on the store. And in case you haven’t heard yet, we can use our own accounts by the end of the year! Sounds exciting for me. Check out these tweets:

@Umbracious_ Because of annoyingly complex tech issues, app & site are different. Can't use same account yet (by end of year)….

@Umbracious_ …store launching soon, with little in it, common rooms & multiplayer games a couple of months out, etc. By end of year, WOW!

They also tweeted a couple of interesting Realms:

Last but not the least, Poptropica uploaded a brand new video and it features the Zomberries from Zomberry Island. They also tweeted that Poptropica Realms will receive an update with Zomberries in it! Hmm, very puzzling. Anyway, enjoy the video of these zomberries grooving on the funky beat of DJ Saturday Nite at the karaoke bar! Very funny.

That’s all of the updates! Hope y’all had fun. Any thoughts? 🙂

Popspiracy Theories

Weird Theory of the Day: Early Villains!

March 11, 2015March 11, 2015 Cheerful Singer

Yo ‘tropicans. Are you in the mood for a totally weird and pointless Poptropica theory that nobody asked for? Well I’ve got one! Please note: This post contains a major spoiler for Spy Island & minor spoilers for Early Poptropica.

If you follow me on Twitter (which I know for a fact most of you don’t because I have like three followers), you’ll see that recently I’ve basically been live-tweeting a replay of Early Poptropica. And as I was playing, something occurred to me.

WHAT IF EARLY POPTROPICA CONTAINS EARLY (YOUNGER) VERSIONS OF SOME OF THE VILLAINS YOU ENCOUNTER ON LATER ISLANDS???

Look at this logic:

poptweetdirectord — Actually though… it kinda works

Sure, it was something Twitter-worthy I’d noticed, but I wouldn’t have gone as far as to call it a “theory” at that point. But then I spotted a young Black Widow.

poptweetblackwidow — I got a little emotional at this discovery

If someone told you “I saw a female NPC in Poptropica with short black hair, pale skin, and a dark outfit, and she hung out in a creepy place with a lot of spiders” you’d be like “yeah, that’s Black Widow” WOULDN’T YOU? I mean, yeah, she’s a little different. But Early Poptropica was released a while before Black Widow’s first appearance (as Black Widow) and people change. Even when those people happen to be Poptropica villains.

ALSO, the official Poptropica account retweeted my Director D post! That doesn’t necessarily mean they’re confirming it (they didn’t make any comment on it) but it means they at least acknowledge the possibility… or they just acknowledge how silly it sounds. I’ll keep playing and keep an eye out for new possibilities. In the meantime, let me know in the comments if you have anything to add!

Ads: Lego Mixels & Cinderella

March 11, 2015March 21, 2015 Spotted Dragon

Two new ads have been popping up around Poptropica lately, one for boys and one for girls. Thanks to Prickly Monster for the tip!

Let’s start with the ad for the boys. This advertisement is for Lego Mixels, and all you have to do is click on the ad to receive the Boogly Dash, which gives you a handheld green-and-blue Lego object and makes a creature across the screen when you press space bar.

boogly dash Next up is the ad for girls. This one is for the upcoming movie, Cinderella. Again, all you have to do is watch a short video and you will earn a Cinderella costume: an Enchanted Royal Gown!
