Stall no more: Rumpel’s Challenge for all 😈

Adventures await, Poptropicans!

Pop drop alert: Rumpel’s Challenge is now available for all! 😈 Once for members only, this side quest sequel to Fairytale Island which first launched 10 months ago is finally welcoming non-members who’ve completed the main quest to continue the story.

To get cracking on the riddles, find Rumpelstiltskin on Home Island. Alas, the lead-up with the suspiciously twitching Baron is no longer in sight. For a helping hand in your inter-island search for the true king of Fairytale, keep our Rumpel’s Challenge Side Quest Guide close! 🏰👑

Speaking of the infamous magic man, check out this early concept art of the devilish character revealed on Pop’s Twitter! My, what big eyes you have… 👀


While you’re on Home Island, you may also notice a new ad building for animated Netflix movie Sea Beast! 🐙 Like the Rainbow High ad earlier, inside you can pick a team and play a game for prizes. You’ll have to run around and find 10 little beasts before time is up –– mind the tentacles! You can play for each team to get each of their prizes: the Yellow Follower and Blue Follower (yup, how original).

(Thanks to Fearless Star for contributing to this segment!)


Also, guest writer Invisible Ring is back with a post of encouragement for finding a spirit of adventure with Poptropica. 💫 Check out her post over on the Creators’ Blog, filled with tons of postcard-perfect shots!

And more excitement is to come — check back later today for the start of our next round in the Poppies awards: the voting! See you soon!

Clubhouse, Fan Art Features, Store

Rumpel Rampage ‘Round the Racks 😈🛍

Heyo Poptropicans! Here’s the latest in Pop shopping and more.

Adventure Outfitters got the Rumpelstiltskin bug and is restocking the iconic villain’s costume, along with some splashy summer gear. 🔫 Meanwhile, the clubhouse store is selling stuff from various islands, including the recent Fairytale Island-inspired Rumpel décor from the Baron’s airship. See the details on the Creators’ Blog »

Word is the Baron leaves this Wednesday, so this is your last chance to nab the free costume and enjoy her flight deck, where the Pop Creators will be hanging out to find some cool player looks to feature in an upcoming post. 👀💃 Wonder what’ll happen to her Rumpel-itis

By the way, Wednesday is also the last day for Poppies nominations here on the PHB! 🏆 Tell us who or what deserves a spotlight in a plethora of categories, and they might just make it to the voting round later this week. Stay tuned, and in the meantime, get your party outfit ready! ✨


Plus, enjoy the latest fan art features from Pop’s Instagram stories:

Remember: last chance for Poppies nominations! Keep ’em coming! 🏆

Get Ready to Rumpel with the Poppies 😈🏆

Hey Poptropicans! Between the Baron’s suspicious behavior and the beginning of the Poppies, it’s been a busy week. Let’s kick it back a bit! 🌴

Along with the Baron’s Rumpel remarks comes a heavy hint for what’s brewing. On the official blog, the Pop Creators have promised that a members only adventure is about to be unlocked for all next week involving an “expedition across the islands.” Fairytale followers can probably figure out the quest in question: Rumpel’s Challenge! 😈


We’re super stoked and honored to have the Pop Creators shout out our Poppies event! 🏆✨ As they shared on the blog, we’re calling all players to nominate their faves in a variety of categories for our Poptropica fan awards. Comment on our Poppies post by Wednesday, July 13 and check back later for the voting round and deets for a can’t-miss party! 🥳

Speaking of fandom fanfare, this week also marks the launch of the next monthly costume contest, which is open until Friday, July 22 at 8pm PST.

Plus, guest writer Dizzy Feather is also continuing her fanfiction The Pink Knight (which debuted here on the PHB!) with a sequel called Poptropican Heroes over on the Creators’ Blog — the first part is up now!


Last but not least, this week has also brought some stellar fan art features to Pop’s Instagram stories, including an animation featuring the power of a Hamburger Hamburger, scenes from the Baron’s latest visit, and even a comic based on events from Spy Island. 🍔🕵️

Oh, and Poptropica’s keeping it real with their IG reels. Check out this carousel of iconic villains (if only they could really be starter characters!):

My Place In Poptropica: Young Rider

This is a guest post from Young Rider sharing her My Place in Poptropica story, which is all about one’s Poptropica journey. Enjoy!

Hi, my Poptropica name is Young Rider, and here is My Place In Poptropica.

2019 | Cool Math & Confusion

So I started with Cool Math Games like many people, and that’s where I found Poptropica. I looked at the description and I thought it sounded really cool. Next, I created an account. I was confused in the beginning, but then I found out it was fun. I played Poptropica for about a year and then forgot about it.

2020 | Revisiting

I was looking at my history a little while later and I saw Poptropica. I searched it up and started to play it again. But it started to get glitchy, so I stopped playing it.

2022 | Flight of Flash

I heard about Flash not being a thing anymore, and I remembered some games that were on Flash. I remembered Poptropica yet again and made a new account so I could play it again. I saw how much had changed, and was disappointed. But I quickly moved on.

I got confused on Mythology Island, so I searched up a walkthrough. That’s how I found the PHB! I saw how many walkthroughs they had and it has become my favorite site ever since. I have used countless walkthroughs on this blog. Then I saw Dizzy Feather’s “My Place in Poptropica” post so I thought I would try to make my own. Here we are!

In my clubhouse

My Poptropica username is pelicanray and you can friend me if you want. Have a great day!
