Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Dizzy Feather. Enjoy!
Falling to Pieces: Let’s see if we can rig this guy back together.
Hello everyone, Dizzy Feather here, and I’m going to introduce to you a little puzzle game called “What’s missing?”
I’ll show you screenshots from Poptropica with a detail covered up, and your job is to guess what the missing piece is. Leave your guesses in the comments of this post, and in about a week I’ll share the answers and shout out those who got them all correct! A few rules before we start:
No cheating! Don’t go in-game to the area shown to find the answers, and don’t copy someone else’s answers (best not to look before sharing yours). Not only would that be cheating others, but you’ll be taking the fun away from yourself!
Give as many details as you can. Some of the hidden objects might be obvious, but tell me what’s special about them.
Have fun! It’s just a game. Don’t pressure yourself to get them all.
Now that we’ve got that down, let’s start with the pilot round:
123456
So what’s missing? Share your guesses in the comments below, and be sure to check back next week to see how many you got right!
Hope you enjoyed this guest post by Dizzy Feather. If you did, you might also enjoy her clubhouse tour, or a similar puzzle series from the PHB, Stolen Snapshots, featuring scenes from classic islands.

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by HeartOfEnder. Enjoy!
Good morning, good afternoon, good evening everyone! Whatever time it may be, I hope you had a wonderful day, and if you just woke up, I hope that you’ll have a wonderful day! And it will be, because I, HeartofEnder, is back with the second part of The Witch’s Heart!
We left off from part one with the white egg minutes, if not seconds, away from hatching. Without further ado, let’s catch up with our heroes!
Eggscellent: You’re a shell of your former self.
SNOW WHITE, CINDER, and RED are staring at the egg, now in a homemade nest, watching the cracks appear one by one. It is quite early in the morning, when most early birds are starting to wake up and catch worms.
ALOUETTE arrives looking very tired, and her hair looks like a bird just used it as a nest.
SNOW WHITE:
Um, Alouette? Your hair is—
ALOUETTE:
Oh yea, one second.
With a swish of her wand, ALOUETTE’S hair magically brushes itself, returning to the usual long braid she always has her hair in.
ALOUETTE:
I was going to ask why you decided to wake me up so early in the morning, but I guess my answer is (points to the egg) right here.
For the next 30 minutes or so, our heroes watch the egg carefully. Finally, the last crack appears and out emerges a small white baby dragon.
ALOUETTE:
(excited) Oh my gosh you’re the cutest thing to ever walk on this island! Except Gwen’s pet owl Merlin, I guess. Actually, he doesn’t count because he flies, therefore has never walked on this island. Still, you’re cuter than Merlin! Look at those big eyes! Awww who’s a good dragon?
CINDER:
(sighs) It hasn’t even been a minute and Alouette has already fallen in love with it.
ALOUETTE picks up the white dragon and watches it chew the ends of her braid.
SNOW WHITE:
At least it likes you back.
RED:
It’s like a living, four legged, cute little Pearl!
The white dragon stares at Red, responding to the word ‘Pearl’.
BABY DRAGON:
Rawr?
RED:
I think I accidentally gave them a name. There goes all the other name ideas I had.
ALOUETTE:
Well, Pearl is a cute name, so I guess it works. I can’t wait to show this to my mother! I know she really likes her black cats, and I have suddenly become the owner of a white dragon, so who knows how this will work out.
As if on cue, a black cat suddenly appears from the bushes, holding a small note in her mouth. ALOUETTE picks the note up and reads it out loud.
ALOUETTE:
Breakfast is ready, don’t know why you left, hurry home before the toast becomes cold as ice, Sabrina.
RED:
How does toast become that cold? Magic?
ALOUETTE:
There’s no questioning a witch’s metaphors, I guess. Wish me luck!
ALOUETTE waves goodbye to her friends before following the black cat back to her house. PEARL the dragon curiously looks around as they enter the dark forest and arrive back at the tower. Her mother is waiting in the living room.
SABRINA:
Oh hey, I was about to freeze your toast just to show you I wasn’t kidding about—
SABRINA notices the little white creature in her daughter’s hands and stares at it, very concerned.
ALOUETTE:
You’re gonna tell me we can’t keep him as a pet?
SABRINA:
No, you can keep the baby dragon, but it’s something else I’m concerned about.
SABRINA walks towards the window and glances as if she was looking out for something.
SABRINA:
Dragons are very, very protective of their young. They don’t care how you obtained the baby, or if you helped keep them safe, they will show no mercy to claim it back. I fear with that little dragon in your hands—
In the distance, we hear a roar. Over the dark forest, a large shadow flies overhead. Through the massive trees, we see a flash of white scales.
SABRINA:
As I was saying, we better return the baby dragon to its mother before that giant dragon burns down this entire island. We have no time to waste.
TO BE CONTINUED…
What exactly does the giant dragon want from the citizens of Fairytale Island? You’ll have to wait until the next part. I’ll see you guys later!
The Witch’s Heart is a short story from the universe of Storm’s Calamity, which is available to read on Tumblr and Quotev.

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Dizzy Feather. Enjoy!
Hello everyone, Dizzy Feather here. I hope you’re ready for a tour of my clubhouse! Please ignore the shamrocks — some kid preparing for a spelling test spilled his “Good Luck Charms” in front of my clubhouse right before you got here. Also ignore the guy in front of the backyard gate — he stands there all day and night, and never leaves — it’s a bit creepy. Anyway, let’s head inside.
To the right of the front door, we have my two electric bikes all ready for a nice relaxing ride. If you want, you can place your shoes on the rack for the tour, just make sure you remember which pair is yours. You can also hang your hat up as well if you like.
Wait, is that a hole in the bike tire? It is! Oh, I was planning on riding it later today, but now I’ve got to get a new tire for it…
Ah, yes — next we have my bedroom, with my piles of plushies, antique tea set, bed, dresser, and butterflies hanging on the wall. This is by far my favorite room in the clubhouse.
Next up we have the reading loft. Feel free to take a seat in any of the chairs. I know two of them look like pool inflatables, but they’re not.
Here is my humble kitchen. Don’t drink the sodas, they’re not for you… it’s just my refrigerators are full and I had nowhere else to put them — sorry.
I hope you’re hungry because I set up a lunch for us all — no, not the milkshakes, they’re not edible! — but the cheeseburger, club sandwich, ice cream sundae, and the bottled soda are. After we’re finished, we can sit on the couch for a little while before we move on with the tour.
Last but not least is my office. I play music on the TV while I write my stories, and when I get hungry, I grab a snack from the refrigerator.
Hope you enjoyed my clubhouse tour. See you next time!

Happy August, Poptropicans! We’ve got a slew of updates to go through!
A new month brings a fresh rotation to the shop floor of Adventure Outfitters, including snacks and scooters for… the back-to-school season? Check out the costumes and more on the Creators’ Blog!
Speaking of goodies, August’s member gifts are here to make some midnight memories! Members can find the Werewolf costume, Werewolf Feet, and a Little Moon Follower in their inventories. 🌙
There’s a new ad on Home Island for Luck, an upcoming fantasy comedy animated movie premiering on Apple TV+. Watch the trailer and you’ll get the Luck Horseshoe Toss and Luck Shamrock Sticker powers. 🍀
Cool as they are, it gets edgier on TikTok and Twitter, where Poptropica spotlighted this sick self-made tattoo of a Poptropolis Games-style Poptropican by @pworddestroyer69. Forever iconic. 🔥
Hello once again everyone! Spotted Dragon here bringing you the July recap for Community Creations. July’s theme was Cosplay, so be sure to check out all the featured artists!
Dr. Hare & Binary Bard Cosplay by Sriyani (srvanv)
That’s it, no contest, these guys undoubtedly won Halloween last year. 🐰🤖🎃 You don’t often see Poptropica costumes IRL, but when you do, they are simply amazing! This iconic duo is easily recognizable and shows off so much personality. From the green glowstick bands on Dr. Hare’s belt to the metallic-grey socks of Binary Bard’s robot legs, there’s wonderful attention to detail and resourcefulness in this cosplay look. Check out more photos of the look here and find their Instagram here.
Dr. Hare & Black Widow Cosplay by Yamcha (gokuostrich)
Once again, these IRL costumes have blown me away. And TikTok has been a great platform lately for showing off that Poptropica cosplay. Makes me want to attend a real-life PoptropiCon and dress up as my Popsona. These looks are instantly recognizable and just seem so fun to wear. But honestly, it’s that little Dr. Hare plush and carrot that really sets this look out from the rest. Don’t talk to me or my son ever again. Find the original videos here and here, and find more on their TikTok here (note that some content may be for ages 13+).
Subnautica Sea Monkeyby HeartOfEnder
I particularly like this submission because of its unique approach to the theme. For any Subnautica: Below Zero fans, you may recognize this sea monkey that has a Poptropica-style twist. The translation of the sea creature into a Poptropican is super interesting, and I love to see the comparisons between this design and the original. The color scheme is especially nice! It would make a great in-game costume. Find the artist commonly on Discord.
Rumpel Revolutionby sleepybiker
With recent Rumpelstiltskin-ified items available in the Baron’s Cabinet of Curiosities, including a certain altered Dr. Hare costume, seeing Rumpelstiltskin in other iconic Poptropican outfits is rather appropriate, don’t you think? I like to think that he’s getting into the Community Creations spirit and really participating in this month’s theme of cosplay, if but in his own mischievous way. 😜 Plus, he just looks so darn cute! Find their DeviantArt here.
Again, here we see Poptropica cosplaying really taking off on TikTok! Ringmaster Raven is a fan favorite character (who deserved better, of course) and so it’s super cool to see him come to life like this. A funny use of audio to match the look, and very theatrical! The eyes on the hat to match Raven’s in-game hat really tie the whole look together. Find more on their TikTok here (note that some content may be 13+).

As always, you guys crushed it with your creativity. My expectations for Poptropica cosplay are now super high. And what great timing with San Diego Comic Con happening just recently!
August: How Do I Participate?
Community Creations is a cool series for anyone in the Poptropica community to join in on. To sum up what it’s about, it’s basically a chance to show off your artwork, creepy fan-fics, Pop clubhouses, costumes, and anything else that pops into your mind.
If we really like the piece you submit, we will feature it here on the PHB! As long as it relates to that month’s theme. So what is August’s theme? August’s theme is…
🎉💿📼 ‘80s! 📼💿🎉
Maybe it’s been the lack of classic islands or maybe my binging of Stranger Things or our recent celebration of the Poppies, but with summer ending soon I’ve been feeling a whole lot of nostalgia lately. So as we move towards the future, why not celebrate the past a bit too?
Now, I know Poptropica’s demographic is more ’90s and early 2000s kids, but I thought it would be fun to turn back the clock just a little bit more with our next theme. The ’80s was an era of bright neon colors and bold styles to say the least, which could be quite fun to incorporate more into Poptropica. And some of its trends have made a return! I’m talking mullets, VHS-style video, vaporwave aesthetics, you name it.
Influence from the ’80s can even be seen in Poptropica. Maybe draw DJ Saturday Nite in a ton of neon colors? Or reimagine the Night Watch mall as if it were in the 1980s. Make your best ‘80s inspired costume or even write about an island set in the ’80s. Check out LJ’s Poptropica fashion through the decades for some more inspiration.
Submit: Comment below with a link to whatever you’ve created, email it to the PHB team on our Contact page, OR share it with me (SydVC aka Spotted Dragon) on DeviantArt, Twitter, Tumblr, or Discord.
Results: Next month, I will feature 5 submissions that stood out to me the most as well as some honorable mentions.
Limitations: Just make sure you relate to both the theme and Poptropica (and nothing NSFW or otherwise inappropriate).
Due Date: I will take any entries before the end of this month. Submit as many things as you’d like!
I will be sure to let you know I have seen your creation. While quality counts, I’m mainly looking for something to simply catch my eye, so don’t be afraid to join in!
So what are you waiting for? Go make something awesome!
