Meanwhile, in keeping up with her airborne archrival, Amelia at Adventure Outfitters has rotated her store stock as well. In addition to the Pride Month gear, she’s also refreshed the costume selection and added more pet gear, including Fairy Wings and more. ๐๐ง

Hey Poptropicans, this is aย guest postย by Pink Crush.ย Enjoy!
Hi Poptropicans! Pink Crush here! You may have heard of my name from my fashionseries on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog or other guest posts I’ve shared here on the PHB (linked below in the post).
Enjoy some fashion look photos I took throughout the year!
Anyway, I wanted to do a post more about me, Pink Crush (not me like in real life, but my Popsona, or Poptropica persona). So, a good place to start is the beginning. My full name is Pinkertia Rosella-Moreau Crush, but I shortened it to Pink Crush for ease.
I was born and raised on Mythology Island, where I developed a deep love for Greek mythology (side note: in real life, I actually do love Greek mythology!). Even though Iโm from Mythology Island, I do have French ancestry. In fact, I am closely related to Mademoiselle Moreau, whom you know from Mystery Train Island.
Living and growing up on Mythology Island was full of great experiences. As time passed, I developed an interest in traveling the world and visited many Poptropica islands.
Years later, I went to Paris, France to pursue a career in the fashion industry. I loved fashion because of this great idea of expressing yourself to the world in what you wear. Also, because dressing up is fun!
I went to the fine institutions of fashion in Paris. After that, I began to travel the world again, making designs and making a name for myself. Soon I realized that I needed a place to settle down.
I came upon an Island named โHome Island,โ though I didnโt know yet that this would be my home. I got myself a house and went adventuring on many other islands. As I really made a home for myself, I got an idea to write a fashion blog, reconnecting with my passion.
Many loved my post, so I made another one, and even did a clubhouse tour. Basically, that leads us up to now, where I am officially in the Look Book on the PHB, and known as a fashion advisor to the Poptropica community. You could say I am starting to have a bit of fame.
Nowadays, I am at home, making more fashion designs, creating outfits and sharing them to all of Poptropica. I also love to meet new Poptropicans, or catch up with friends once in a while.
Let’s see, what else? I have eight pets, and I splurge on them often because I love my pets! ๐ I also have a lot of friends in my friends list โ like, a lot. It takes about a minute or two to get through the whole list! I’ve even added some of the PHB staff. I love making friends, so if you want to be friends, my username is GoldenPuppy3.
I love desserts and sweets โ basically anything with sugar. I try not to eat too much though, because eating too many sweets isnโt good for you, but can still have some once in a while. I visit the Poptropica Help Blog (PHB) and the Poptropica Creators’ Blog almost every day.
Every summer, I go on a worldwide trip to many of my favorite places, and to ones I havenโt been to yet. As a result, Pink Crush wonโt really be around much, but shall be back in the autumn. I’ll often go to Paris to do fashion shows, and to just visit.
All Is Fair: Let’s skip all the exposition, shall we?
I do wish some Poptropica features will come back, but until then, I love to go adventuring on mountains and meeting creatures. I hope that maybe one day I can make a Poptropica magazine with fashion tips, interviews, and more.
*checks time* Oh dear! I have been talking for a long time. Well, thatโs all for now folks! If you have anything you want to ask me, Pink Crush, please feel free to comment below. Bye for now, and keep crushing it! ๐

The Poptropica Help Blog welcomes interesting Poptropica insights from anyone in the Poptropica community with thoughts to share. Interested in writing for the PHB? Weโd love to hear from you!
It’s been over four months since this installment re-released on Haxe for members, and restless players have been petitioning for the paywall to come down ever since. It’s great to see the episode open back up for everyone, and hopefully this indicates more re-openings for other locked segments of episodic islands as well. Time will tell!
By the way, enjoy the PoptropiCon poster above? We’ve been working hard to include images of old island extras in our Island Guides, particularly as links have broken from Pop’s website in recent years. Check out our various guides for desktop wallpapers and more! ๐ผ
In other news, guest writer Invisible Ring has returned to the Pop Creators’ Blog with commentary on the recent Steam release. She observes how the discontent around the game’s pricing reminds her of her fan movie Battle Morale and how the growth of Pop’s mobile app over the years could indicate more classics might also appear on Steam.
Alongside her usual optimism, however, she also calls out the Creators for not having brought back Monkey Wrench yet (a promise they made over a year ago) and seeming potentially “desperate” for not making the Steam bundle free โ though she ties that into her hopes for more islands on the Steam game, which she has not purchased.
If you’re wondering whether the bundle is worth it, check out our review of Poptropica on Steam! And with that, see you in the next one. โ๏ธ
This is a guest post from Dizzy Feather sharing her My Place in Poptropica story, which is all about oneโs Poptropica journey.ย Enjoy!
Hello everyone! It’s me, Dizzy Feather, the Poptropican who is posting way too many comments on here. Anyway, I decided to write a “My Place in Poptropica” story.
2014 | Finding the game
In my school’s computer lab, I had finished my work, and the teacher let those who finished play games. At the time I loved Coolmath Games, so of course I went to that site. But this one girl next to me was playing a game I had never seen before. I asked her what she was playing, and she told me: “Poptropica.” It looked amazing, so I set up my first account.
When I got into the game, I had zero clue what I was supposed to do. I thought it was a game where you visit islands, look around, buy some stuff to make costumes, and decorate your clubhouse. I stayed on it for a few months until I forgot my username. Instead of setting up a new account, I went back to Coolmath Games.
Treeline: What wood you do?
2016 | Poptropica on tablet
A couple years later, I was thinking about all the computer games I used to play and googling them to see if they were still there. Poptropica came up, and I saw it was still going strong. I remembered how much fun I had on it, and downloaded the app on my tablet. I then found out, you were supposed to do something on the islands, can you believe it? Why I didn’t know that at first, I have no idea.
I couldn’t figure out the first few episodes of Survival, so I went to the fourth one โ for some reason I thought it would be easier. When my character got locked in the guest bedroom, I thought I was supposed to wait in there till the hunt began, so I waited and waited. It wasn’t until I got the bear claw that I figured out I was supposed to get out of the room. I decided that I should talk to the cook, and after more than a dozen times of being sent back to the room, I got the idea that I didn’t want the cook to see me.
Hail to the Chef: Cleaver? I hardly know her!
Anyway, I got bored on that island, so I went to Shrink Ray. I just walked around the house as a shrunken character. Then Monkey Wrench came out, and I finally got my first medallion. Right after I did, my tablet broke. By the time I got a new one, I forgot about Poptropica yet again.
2022 | Rediscovering a different Poptropica
A few months ago, I was playing Coolmath Games when I saw an advertisement for Poptropica. I remembered playing it and decided to try it again. I made another account, but this time I realized most of the islands were gone. So I googled why that was, and found out Poptropica ran on Flash, which had been shut down.
Make Your Mark: Despoiling nature, one vainglorious act of vandalism at a time.
I looked at my player name and I didn’t like it, so I changed it. I scrolled through the names and found a super cute one: “Dizzy Feather.” A few months later, I found the Pop Creators’ Blog. Reading through all the guest posts, I wanted to write of my own. I sent messages to Poptropica about guest writing, and recently they asked me to send in my first post!
But it took some time for that email to come in, and during that time I was looking at fanfictions and started writing my first one, The Pink Knight. One of the fanfictions I found was The Villain Saga, here on the PHB. I looked at the site and soon found the comments section โ now I can’t stop using it.
In Tree, Intrigue: The lone pine returns.
I soon found their Write for the PHB page and decided to send in my fanfiction before I forgot I wrote it. Soon after it was published on the PHB, I joined the PHB’s Discord server as M.
And that’s My Place in Poptropica! See you next time.
Hope you enjoyed this โMy Place in Poptropicaโ story! If you did, youโll probably enjoy our other MPIP stories here on the PHB.
If you havenโt already shared your story, weย invite you toย send in your own. Interested in writing for the PHB under a different Pop-topic? Take a look at ourย Write for the PHB pageย for ideas, guidelines, and more!
