Could the Mardi Gras sneak peeks we’ve been seeing be related to Monster Carnival Island? Dr. Magic Onion points out that the Carnival of Costumes sneak peek we saw contains the phrase “Mardi Gras” in one of the posters, and we know another recent Daily Pop specifically mentioned Mardi Gras.

Mardi Gras

According to Wikipedia, Mardi Gras refers to the season of Carnival celebrations, with costume parades and other fun activities prior to Lent, the fasting season before Easter. Perhaps the Mardi Gras carnival is related to Monster Carnival Island, and maybe Fat Tuesday (February 12 in 2013) will bring in a new Poptropica adventure? Read more about the mystery of MC Island in our new PHB article!

In other news, Zomberry Island comes out this Thursday, January 10 for the peasants who don’t have membership (like yours truly!). If you need help snagging Poptropica’s 32nd medallion, feel free to use our Zomberry Island Walkthrough (it even has pictures)! I mean, it’s already the year 2013 and you only live once.

Warning: Zombie Invasion in T-Minus 5 Days

January 5, 2013January 5, 2013 Fuzzy-B

Hey, you’re going to need some protection from the zombies, Jack.

There are only five days left until Zomberry Island is available to all, so tell me, what do you think is going to help you get through the apocalypse? (Even if it isn’t actually necessary…)

One week left to get your ZMB Unit costume!

We’re kicking the new year off right when we launch Zomberry Island for everyone next Thursday, January 10. But you know what that means: the exclusive, Members-only “ZMB Unit” costume will also be coming out of the store on that date!

If you’re already a Poptropica Member, make sure you grab the ZMB Unit costume before it’s gone. If you’re not a Member, get Membership today so that you can get all the great Members-only gear, and play Zomberry Island before the general public!

BLACK WIDOW

So, are you going to wait and play with the “general public” or be a ZMB Member and play now?

In other news, there is an interesting new Daily Pop post that caught my attention.

The caption reads “Mardi Gras: These folks are ready for Fat Tuesday”.

Mardi Gras is coming up on Tuesday, February 12 here in the United States, what are the creators planning with these fancy costumes? Could it be related to the new Mall Island which could or couldn’t have something to do with Monster Carnival?

Return of Monster Carnival?

January 2, 2013January 3, 2013 Slanted Fish

One of Poptropica’s biggest mysteries is Monster Carnival Island… it appeared on the Map but vanished with no explanation one day to be replaced by 24 Carrot Island. However, this sneak peek (“Carnival of Costumes – maybe not quite a circus of values”) recently surfaced on the Daily Pop:

Carnival Costumes

Could we be seeing the return of Monster Carnival? Or is this just going to be another shop in the new mall-themed island we’ve been seeing recently? After all, the white mannequins seen in the picture above are also featured in this Daily Pop (“Fashion Plate – try before you buy”) image:

Fashion Plate

Also, I recall that seconds 0:12 to 0:14 on the official trailer video for Poptropica’s Friends gave us a subtle hint for “MonsterCarnival2012.” However, it’s 2013 and we’ve yet to see it happen! (By the way, look up that username on the Avatar Studio and you’ll get a character with the name Monster Carnival!)

The video was posted in early April 2012, and here’s a screenshot of what I’m talking about:

MonsterCarnival2012

So what do you think? Will we be seeing Monster Carnival again, or will it remain a mystery forever? Also, check out our new PHB article, Mystery of Monster Carnival, in which all the Monster Carnival Island data we know is exposed for your knowledge. You can find it under Cool Stuff, and it will explain the history of this mystery! 🙂

Hello 2013 – happy new year!

Happy new year, Poptropicans! We survived 2012 and made it through ten new islands: Ghost Story (for all), S.O.S., Vampire’s Curse, Twisted Thicket, Poptropolis Games, Wimpy Boardwalk, Lunar Colony, Super Villain, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Zomberry (for members). Poptropica added members-only bonus quests for islands starting from SOS, the much-anticipated Friends feature was released, we celebrated Poptropica’s 5th birthday and 30th island (Super Villain), Poptropica came out with 4 new books, we experienced Poptropica on the DS, tribes were given special common rooms… looking back, things have been very eventful on Poptropica! 😀

2013 should be a very exciting year as well, for the PHB, the Poptropica Help Network, Poptropica, and of course the world. For starters, I’ve put up a new fresh header for the PHB! Also, be sure to check Party With Hobos, the comedy series written by MT, on January 7 – 11 for some special unreleased episodes! 🙂

The Mall Mystery!

December 29, 2012December 30, 2012 Fuzzy-B

Hey there fellow Poptropicans! There is a new Creators Blog post today about what seems to be the setting of an upcoming Island. Isn’t it nice to take a break from all of the conspiracy bad news circulating Poptropolis Island?

After hours

I went to the mall to exchange some holiday gifts, but I got there too late. They were closed.

Don’t you hate that? It’s not as though you can have any fun at the mall after it closes for the night.

BLACK WIDOW

What type of fun can we have in a mall after closing time? What type of quest could this involve? The mall mystery. This one little post raises a lot of questions about the premise of this upcoming Island. Recent Daily Pops have been pointing at a mall themed Island, could they hold all of the answers? Well, we will just have to see when we get to Twin Palms Mall.
