Howdy! If you’re unaware, Superbowl ’12 starts off this Sunday in America. The Superbowl is one of the biggest games in America where two American football teams go head-to-head to win the grand trophy. This year, the New York Giants versus the New England Patriots! And Poptropica already had you covered before the weekend came.
In honor of this Sunday, the Poptropica Store has pushed the American Football Player costume back in front. This costume really comes in handy, especially telling every Poptropican that you’re watching this Sunday. Plus, it comes with color options!
Good luck, Giants & Patriots fans! Honestly, I’m on the West Coast so I don’t really care who wins. 😛
Bonjour, readers! Less than a week after it’s membership release, PHB posted a tip for S.O.S. Island that could really motivate you for playing it over again – if you’ve completed it, of course! Captain Crawfish, my nemesis, has updated us on another use for the Diving Suit.
But did you know that if you replay S.O.S. Island while wearing the suit, you can stay underwater for much more time? Just open your Island map and hit the “Restart Island” button. Easy peasy!
You read right, Poptropicans! You could stay underwater for much more time with the versatile suit if you replay the island. That’s a very special tip you should be glad the Creators shared – unless you already knew it, of course. And for free-playing Poptropicans, you should really jot down some notes and tips for yourself. Especially a juicy one like this!
SOS Island has already been out for about 24 hours and these 10 people have already saved their souls! 😀 So let’s give a big hearty congratulations to…
1. Sneaky Foot!
2. Silver Runner!
3. Smart Berry!
4. Nervous Thunder!
5. Slippery Beetle!
6. Slippery Spider!
7. Small Sponge!
8. Zippy Leopard!
9. Wild Cheetah!
and 10. Sticky Peanut!
Kudos to you!!! 🙂 You have to give us some tips!

For us nonmembers, there is a demo for us to play! When you log in, you might see this screen… (Thanks Alice!) 🙂
Afterwards, you land on the sinking ship itself! This is certainly different, isn’t it? Once you talk to the captain, you get a screen saying: (Thanks SG!) 🙂
Looks more like a quest, don’t you think? This island certainly is different! After you save your first passenger in Room 6 and take him to the rescue camp, the demo ends and tells you the release date for all is 2/16/12! 😀
And just in case you were wondering about the map, it looks like this: (Thanks Super Thunder!) 🙂
Rescue camp from SOS: (Thanks MH!) 🙂
And as you know, members get an exclusive after quest where they get to stop an oil leak! Super Thunder, one of our walkthrough writers, has given us screenshots! Thanks! 😀
They also got a member pack! Here’s a video from LS showing us! 🙂

Well, that’s all the SOS Info for now! Have fun playing! 😀 Oh, and one more thing:
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 😉
Yes, that’s right! 2012’s first most-anticipated island is finally here – for members anyway. To remind you of what to expect and what you’ve been waiting for, here’s the trailer and description to refresh your memory!
When a whale-watching expedition strikes an iceberg, a pleasure cruise becomes a disaster scene. As the ship sinks deeper and deeper into the frigid waters of the North Atlantic, can you rescue everyone onboard before it’s too late?
Do I hear an after-school party at the PHC or am I just deaf? 😉

Also, with the launch of S.O.S., Black Widow informed us yesterday about three items for, yet again, members to look out for in the store: Sonar Power, Fishing Pole, and Sea Captain! Buy it, activate it, save it. It looks pretty fre$h.
