1. Sneaky Foot!

4. Nervous Thunder!
5. Slippery Beetle!
6. Slippery Spider!
7. Small Sponge!

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.
We all know about the disastrous island to premiere less than 24 hours, right? I know it, you know it. It’s the one and only Save Our Souls Island! What seems to be the most active member of the PCB, Captain Crawfish has posted a screenshot of a certain obstacle you might run into in this dangerous island.
In over your head?
Don’t let the colorful jewelry and the crystal blue water trick you, y’all. If you look to the left, you see some French. Which reminds me of when we all called Counterfeit Island “French Island” because we had no idea. Looks like it topples over your poor Poptropican, but at least you get to look at something pretty while you figure how to get out.
Tomorrow is the day, Poptropicans. Our first island of 2012 is finally gonna be here.
I decided to post about a very special and informative feature on Poptropica often neglected on this blog – Daily Pop’s Sneak Peeks! As I roamed, I screenshot five of some very interesting photos that looks like they need to be shared and could probably tell a lot about what to expect out of our favorite virtual game in 2012. Herrrreee weee go!
Behind Bars - Something here might hold the key to an entire adventure.
If you look very closely at the photo, you could see a golden key.
CC: *smacks MT behind his head* Of course, ignoramus! It’s very obvious.
MT: *rubs back of head* I was just trying to be helpful and informative – wait, where’d you even come from?
This could – obviously – be the start of an adventure. So, if a future island comes along and mentions various hints about a certain key *wink, wink*, remember this photo!
Escape Artist - This cage is impregnable, whether you want to get out or in.
MT: *puts on football helmet and protective gear* Okay, I’m ready.
CC: *rolls eyes*
This beautifully designed photo contains a Poptropican disguised in a Magician costume ( which happens to be available in the Poptropica Store for 75 Credits ;D ) trapped in a cage with a lock on it. Be warned, Poptropicans! You may get captured in the near future! Be careful and limit who you trust – especially Captains.
Hot Tickets - You don't get a first-run theater out here in the boonies.
I think I might be both excited and scared for a creepy island. The scariest part about this picture, I must say, is the Twilight poster. It gives me the shivers, man! Back on topic, if you have no idea what boonies is, it basically means the middle of nowhere. Does this mean an abandoned island with magicians, keys, and cages? And do I see an iPhone? Oh wait, there’s more..
Hungry Like The Wolf - How a real wolf might become Poptropicanized.
I probably won’t be able to sleep tonight due to that hungry face the wolf is making towards me. If you thought the artists on Poptropica can’t draw because you think they actually draw people like that, you’re wrong! Very funny how my current Poptropican’s name is Happy Wolf, though these wolves do not look very happy. Does this mean an abandoned island with cages, keys, magicians, AND wolves? The only thing bad about this so far is Twilight. Don’t worry, it gets better..
A Cabin In The Woods - What a peaceful place to live. We hope.
Creators, I have no idea what’s peaceful about a moderately-beautiful cabin mysteriously vacant in the middle of nowhere. When they said that they hoped it would be peaceful, I got startled by the house – just like how I apparently get startled by everything.
CC: *sneaks up behind MT* Boo!
MT: *jumps high in the air, hangs by chandelier* That wasn’t funny! D:
I really need to wrap this up before I lose my cool. *breathes* You might be wondering, How could it NOT be peaceful? I mean it’s moderately-beautiful! Not that many people have cabins! There’s a crucifix on the door! And it looks very nice in the Winter! Your eyes could deceive you, especially on these islands. The Creators sure are tricky and they’ll just keep you guessing!
I hope you enjoyed this fun-to-make, carefully-typed post! Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go fight a certain man by the name of Captain Crawfish!
CC: With what? You don’t have anything!
MT: *pulls bat somehow out of helmet*
CC: *gulps, makes a run for it*
MT: *jumps down, chases after Crawfish* Who’s the scared one now, bro? Who is!
P.S. S.O.S. Island this Thursday! That’s two days from now! 🙂
