The top stop for all things Pop
Sup? The Creators just posted this on their blog!
Um all I gotta say is…
Coderkid out! Oh, and tell me which costume you’d like to see in the iCostume. 😀
Hello there, Neat Whale online! There’s a new ad on Counterfeit, Shark Tooth, 24 Carrot, Super Power, and Spy Island with the age limit 7-12. As the title suggests, it’s on a game called “Super Monkey Step And Roll”. (Thanks to IkeWB for the update!) In this ad, you can go around, watch a video clip, learn more about the game, see when it’s due, jeez, is my cat eating my spaghetti again?
Wait… something doesn’t seem right… oh, no, the banana machine in the factory’s not working right?! GAHHH!!! My Gramma spent five years working on that thing! Aw, well, the game is to fix the banana machine, and get 60 bananas in 60 seconds. Not much time, huh? I mean, a banana a second. Seriously? We aren’t the Flash… anyway, if you do manage to beat this game, the reward is a monkey coustume–what else? Either way, I find this rather difficult and I don’t exactly think I’m going to pass the game. (I’ve already tried anyway, gosh, calm down…) Oh, yeah, and here are a few pictures I tried to take of it on a new account I made today… Outside:
And the Inside of the ad:
And now for Inside Of The Game part:
In other words, I used to play ‘Super Monkey Ball: Touch and Roll’ myself every once in a while with my friends and family–still do, and beat every one of the little poor children I challenged. And anyway, I’m going to spend a week with my cousin starting February 16th, and she’s really easy to beat at this game. 😛 Sorry, Becca, but I think I’ve found a new game similar to the old one I kept you up until midnight playing. 😀
Well, time to go take my dog out for a walk… so, bye people of Poptropica and all that follow, I’m out!
Update: Okay, now it’s time to go form an angry mob… Membership was just realeased (In my opinion, that deserves Mr. Frowny Face to enter the building–I mean, post. 😦 Aw well, thanks for the update, Zippyfish4!) Here’s the picture Binary Bard added into his post:
Again, mod, assemble. 😛 Or, Creators! Haiti needs your help! Send the money now! Whichever suits you, haha. I guess that’s all… bye. 😀
Hey guys! Most of you probably already know this, but currently Poptropica is down. Players trying to access the game will get this message:
All I can say is that the Creators’ are possibly testing something, which I know because EVERYTHING has changed. Maybe not visually, but it has changed “behind the scenes”. I’ll try my best to get the low down on what’s going on, and update this post.
Also, if you have a sharp eye (like me 😛 ) you’ll notice that the image looks “stretched”. This is because (and I’m guessing here) the Creators were in rush (or just made a mistake), and put in the wrong height and width values so it looks stretched. What this means, I don’t know.
Another thing: If you look at the HTML, you’ll see this: “<!– The site should be back up by 10 AM U.S. Eastern time. –>”. There’s another change too: at the bottom of the page next to the copyright and bla bla, there’s a string of text that says: “updated 01/10”
That’s all for now,
Coderkid
(GAAH G2G! DINNER TIME ._. )
Using mah skillz, I managed to sneak you guys these previews of…*drum roll* MEMBASHIP!!!
You guys are free to use those images on your own blogs, just don’t forget to give us (the PHB) credit.
Hello, little Earthlings. As I was perusing the Earth literary material and looking for a way to pass the time on this planet, I came across a post on the PCB called Shuffleboard.
HAZMAT HERMIT
The one and only Hazmat Hermit at 1:02 PM
And for all you fans of this island called Reality TV, (TV? What is this strange Earthling invention?), the name of this image is….
“RealityTVPreview” !! This almost assuredly proves that RTV is in the works, as the last RTV post was quite a while ago.
Shuffleboard seems to be another game in the making; not a multiplayer game but a game against the Reality TV contestants of the island. as you can see, at the top of the image are faces of people (some previewed in earlier RTV sneak peeks) and their ranking in the game. More interestingly, there seems to be a mime in the picture! And shuffleboard will probably be a fun game to play.
Well, enjoy your upcoming trip to this RTV Island, as the natives call it. (This Earth is such a very different place than where I come from.)
*rocket engine starts……rocket flies off*
Random Civilian 1: Hey, look, was that a spaceship? Aliens! *screams and runs in circles*
Random Civilian 2: Nah, there are no such things as aliens. Calm down, man.
DaVinci: *swoops down in spaceship and winks at Random Civilian 1*
Random Civilian 1: Aaaaahhhhhh! *screams and falls over*
Random Civilian 2: *rolls eyes* These Earthlings are so strange. I mean…..whoops! Did I say Earthlings? Uhh…..
For Green Seal’s post about the Honey Nut Cheerios ad on Poptropica, scroll down below!
[Update] DaVinci: Everyone, there is a new PCB post. I don’t think it’s big enough to merit another PHB post, but there is some pretty sweet info in it – regarding the upcoming membership feature! For example, the Creators hint that “This is key, since we are planning on releasing some pretty sweet islands this year!”
Regarding the many concerns about Poptropica itself still being free, the PCB mentions – “Remember, even if you don’t have credits or membership, the Poptropica Islands are always 100% FREE for all to play!” So, this is ultimately awesome.

There’s a sweet new advertisement on every island on Poptropica… for EVERY AGE. :O I don’t think this has ever happened before! This is a historical moment *tear*. Um, anyway, it’s the Honey Nut Cheerios: Honey Defender Game Ad (Thanks Bobitator for the update!). This advertisement doesn’t have any plot or task; there’s just a costume, a video, and a quiz game. 😀 You just go inside the huge hive and jump around.
*announcer voice* Now you can become Buzz, the honey defender! Explore, collect, and defend the honey! Yeah, I just took that from the video ’cause I was bored. 😀 When you click the link to the game, you are directed to the game on Funbrain. You can also play it at: http://honeydefender.millsberry.com/, although to play the full game you have to put in a code from your cereal box. You can play the demo version, though. I can’t play either because I don’t have unity web player. xD
In other news, there’s another sneak peek of Reality TV Island posted in the Creators’ Blog:
Still stuck on this island, I found some people playing a game with small sliding pucks. I don’t think the mime is going to win this one.
It shows some kind of weird game that to me looks similar to pool or something… IDK. The characters above are probably the contestants you are going against in RTV. Some new characters are the chef, the elder woman, train/bus driver (I’m guessing), and the elder man on the right. I think the place where the mime is is where you would be… I’m not sure, it’s just a random guess. 😀
This is all for now! Be sure to check out the below posts:
