Lucy: no match for Pair of Kings

September 21, 2010January 10, 2015 Slanted Fish

Over on Great Pumpkin Island, one of the girls from the Peanuts gang – Lucy van Pelt – has decided to come join the scene… but she’s standing away from the others, complaining to anyone who will listen about how her brother Linus is ruining her reputation.

Meanwhile, if you talk to the boys, Charlie admits that he kind of admires Linus for standing up for what he believes in – the Great Pumpkin – while Linus himself is feeling more and more certain that this coming Halloween, the Great Pumpkin will be choosing this very pumpkin patch. 😛

In other news, older players currently have access to a new advertisement game themed on Pair of Kings, a Disney XD show. The objective is to make it through a cave maze and eventually reach the two kidnapped kings, who are stuck inside a cage.

Upon rescuing them, you will be awarded a Pair of Kings Outfit and Volcano Totem (which rains down volcanic rocks when used!). If you need help, check out Loud Shark’s video walkthrough below:

The PHB doesn’t just rock…

it boulders. 🙂

That’s right – DON’T STOP PARTYING! O:

Why? WHY? You must know why! The nice guys at Poptropica have decided that they aren’t going to leave any player out of the b-day celebrations. If you’re having absolutely no luck at all in finding that sneaky rare 3-balloon, it’s okay.

You can still get something (ooh! a present? for me? *squeal*) – orange balloons with a blue “3” on them are being given away for FREE at the Poptropica Store! It’s free, fun, and keeps you happy! 😀

So come on and

LET’S KEEP THIS PARTY GOING!

And while you’re at it, don’t forget to sing a song to your favorite computer game!

Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear Poptropica
Happy birthday to you

…and many more (:

It could’ve been so different… :O

Update: For reasons unknown, the post mentioned below has been removed from the Creators’ Blog! Kind of weird… and nobody knows why! (Thanks for noticing, Explorer Bronze.)

Do you know what Poptropica may have looked like in its early stages of development? The Poptropica team sure had some different styles of designing back then! Check it out:

Poptropica’s embarrassing baby photos

Do your parents ever like to embarrass you by showing your baby pictures to your friends? Mine sure did, until I got even. Oh, did I get even…

Um, anyway, it turns out that Poptropica has some embarrassing baby photos of its own. You already know that when you start a new game, you can customize your Poptropican any way you’d like. It looks a little something like this.

Way back when we started planning Poptropica, we knew we wanted to let you customize your character. But, er, this is how we initially sketched it out.

Yikes! Of course, it was never meant to look this way for real. We just wanted to demonstrate how changing your character would work. Still… yeesh. I can’t believe we used to look like that. How embarrassing!

BINARY BARD

What do you think?

I’m coco for Coco Puffs!

Well since I have only minutes till I have dinner… there is another fruit loops ad in Poptropica. These creators are nuttiest of the nutty. Nutty crunchies-they’ll make you nutty! I kid, I kid. So here’s the basic plot: This Aztec king doesn’t share his loops. Loops? So then you have to beat him at these challenges. Then he’ll “share.”

These creators are borrowing of street smart gags....

But either than that… craze and crave those crazy squares! Doh! Not that…

Happy birthday Poptropica!

(I was availible for this day, so I posted. No need to save Friday’s post for me. Thx.)

As you probably have figured out, it’s Poptropica’s birthday this month! The Creators’ post yesterday about their surprise has been revealed!

(Poptropica was founded in September 2007. The exact date was not announced, but since these birthday balloons were released on Sept 15, it may have been officially released on this day – or it could be just that it’s the middle of the month. ~Hijuyo)

Happy 3rd birthday, Poptropica!

Some of our agents may have already figured it out — it’s Poptropica’s third birthday this month!

To celebrate, we’re giving all Poptropica fans a chance to win a special, rare outfit. All you have to do is visit any common room between now and September 30, and look for the special blue balloon with a “3” on it.

Awesome! If anyone has been lucky enough to see the balloon and get the costume, be sure to tell us! Congrats to all the people who managed to get the costume! 😀
