Walkthrough by Prickly Dolphin, Fuzzy-B, Slanted Fish
To get Greg off his video game console on Wimpy Wonderland Island, you’ll have to beat the game Twisted Wizard for him! It’s three whole levels of ogre-zapping fun!
Already completed Wimpy Wonderland? You can still experience the fun by going to the Games tab in your inventory and selecting the Twisted Wizard CD!
Starting the Game
Go to your backpack (inventory) and go into the games section and click on the game card for Twisted Wizard. It should look like a CD, as shown in the image above.
Enabling Easy Mode
If you want to play in easy mode, go to your Wimpy Wonderland inventory and click on the Twisted Wizard guide. Your Poptropican will say that you can enable Easy mode by clicking on the wizard on the Start Menu. Open the CD from your inventory, click on the wizard, and it will allow you to enable Easy mode. Click okay to start playing.
How to Play
Build walls and use magic to defend your wizard from the evil ogres! Press the spacebar to rotate building blocks and click to place them completely around your wizard.
Gameplay
You will play as the blue-robed wizard standing in the center of a field. In each round, you’ll be given time (indicated in the upper-left corner) to build blocks around your wizard. Blocks can be rotated by pressing the spacebar, and you click to place them on the field. You cannot overlap blocks (shown by red) and you should aim to have at least two blocks all around you (shown by the black circle in the image below):
Once time is up for placing blocks, the ogres will start coming. If they get close enough, they can destroy parts of your castle. You also need to prevent them from reaching you or it’s game over. To get rid of them, click on the ogres as they approach to zap them with lightning. As you progress through the levels, they will start coming faster, so be on your guard!
There are three total waves (levels) you must get through. At the end of each round, you’ll have time to repair your castle and build more blocks before the next wave of ogres comes through. When you’ve survived through all three waves and time runs out, you’ll win. Congratulations!
Player tips
- By Shaggy Tornado: If two of the ogres show up next to each other, you can click between them so you can kill them both. You might waste time if you click on each one separately.
- By Hazy Girl: Try building as many blocks as you can for building a castle.
- By Hazy Girl: If the ogres have red eyes, that tells you that they are moving fast. Defeat them.

I am 10 years old and I started playing Poptropica in June 2010. My cousin Hannah told me about it
I’m actually one year younger than you!
Same here!I’m turning eleven next year(2013)!!
And I’m 8.
I am 11 too

I started Poptropica when Skullduggery island came out and have been playing ever since. I’ve beaten everything Poptropica has to offer so I just beat the new islands when they come out, and I have plans to make a blog as well. I am 12 years old and I still like Poptropica, 3 years after I first started playing. I told at least 30 of my friends about it and they have accounts. Friend me my username is polymon1. PATHFINDERS FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and im 13
Oh my blob, my cousin told me too in 2010! Weird! Friend me on iopiopiopiop8!
Mom told me about poptropica! I started in 2010, but I can’t remember the month.
i started playing poptropica when time tangled came out. my friends in 1st grade showed me it.
I started playing when Time Tangled came out cuz my sis was playing and I asked her what it was, and then I got addicted to poptropica. Then i just forgot about it and like three months ago my friend sarah was playing and i remembered about it. my account had been deleted cuz i didn’t play 4 a long time but i created a new one and I A M A D D I C T E D P O P T R O P I C A A G A I N ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
BTW add me my username is luckypotterhead
and add sarah her username is sarahgriffiths3765

i couldn’t add sarah
i’ll add you
I’m 10
And I’m eleven.
I’m 8 years old and I can beat it
That happened to me to but it was not my cousin.It was my friend,Katherine.
it is 2015 now, so i turned 11 in 2013, 12 in 2014, and will turn 13 in August this year. so i am 12!
Cool. I’m 14! 😀
I am 10 years old too
Oh by the way, thanks for helping, Prickly Dolphin. I am glad you helped. Now anyone on Poptropica could use it and play the new game. Thanks alot! I am so happy!!!! Great job with the editing Hi.juyo
Oh Prickly Dolphin, thanks! Although I am new to this web site. I was looking up some help.
I am not one of the creators. I just wanted to be a helpful person. After all, I like Twisted Wizard. I played it! Thats why I wrote a guide. To help other people. Other people have been waiting for the guide. So I wrote a guide and provided some help for the PHB. PHB stands for Poptropica Help Blog.
I’m suck at this… Twisted Wizard game… I’m slow… and my reflex is slower… 😦
me too
Its okay, I get frustrated when i play it.
I still can’t get past it T_T My mothers computer (Which i’m using right now)
is very fast unless i’m playing a 3D game it slows down.
Its either i’m slow or since i’m 9 I can’t go so fast.
Could you help me?
aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i cant beat twisted wizard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is impossible!!!! i quit this island cuz ill never beat it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is possible. I have beaten Wimpy Wonderland twice now. Yes, beating Twisted Wizard is very hard, but it is not impossible. And, please, don’t yell, when you use that many exclamation marks, it can look like yelling, even if you don’t have all the words in caps.
You have to click on the wizard before you play. You also need the guide for it to work. I tryed clicking on he wizard before I played and it said cheat mode not active or something like that. So you need the guide AND THEN Greg will activate it. One last note is that wen I said to click on the wizard before you play, I meant on the screen where it says click to play.
Wow, I can’t believe it! People are posted on my guide. Hooray! Guys, you have to switch to easy mode like you did on Wimpy Wonderland. You know, if you worked on the island, you would know how to play it. Hoped I helped!
To switch to easy mode, you use the Twisted Wizard Guide from your inventory if u have it!
Find the twisted wizard guide in Greg’s locker. Code is: 9, 37, 15. There now you could get the guide. Enjoy!
Nice guide Prickly Dolphin! It will be really helpful to those who have or haven’t completed the island yet! 😀
Random tip: If two of the ogres show up next to each other, you can click between them so you can kill them both. You might waste time if you click on each one separately.
You are right Shaggy Tornado. Thanks for saying nice. I have been waiting for a Twisted Wizard guide. Only nobody hadn’t posted one yet. So I tried the game first to see what I could do. Then I started typing on the Game Guides section. I typed a guide in the comments. Then Hi.juyo posted my guide and edited it! Thanks people for checking out!
If you are very slow at the game, try restarting the computer and try again. Hoped I helped!
hey umm i joined in 2008!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (i like to show off my skills !!!!!!!!!)
😀
If time runs out while you are building, or these monsters get you, it shows you a screen that says: “Alas, you have failed!
Is there any other way to beat Wimpy Wonderland Without doing twisted wizard? I Hope so, the Poptropica Official guide does not help and neither does easy mode
I started 2005 when i was 5. this game is AWESOME!!
I love you Jeff Kinney
hes the guy who made poptropica
I learned about poptropica from a freind
Poptropica was available IN 2007!! That means it is IMPOSSIBLE TO JOIN IN 2005!!
It is not possible to join poptropica in 2005
I started playing when I was in third grade I am now in eleventh so it was created in 2005 it had only just came out when I found it with only one island
Slanted Fish: No, Poptropica was released in 2007.
yeah thanks
poptropica this is not fun i not going to play your game no more paul out
i still can not beat it! ugh!
i am just trying to say it is hard to beat .but i beat it 😀
Me 2 it it really hard 4 me 2 finish all 3 waves. What about u guys.
Its not impossible, just keep trying.. It gets easier.
Thx so much 4 the guide!
im almost gonna be out on poptropoca because iim 15 one more month im 16 bye bye poptrop[ica
just because you are to old for the character ages does not men you cannot play if you like the game I am 16 and a half and I play because I love it and am severely addicted to it
poptropica, you have sent me into total stress and i am so upset because twisted wizard is impossible for me. crap you poptropica
Stressful yes but just don’t go to skulldugery if there is alot (longtime).
I have two accounts now and just want to tell you that you are great!
thanks greg such the the slacker
it keeps saying i have to enable the cheats to turn on easy mode please help
‘sighs’ you need to click on the wizard when it’s on the screen that reads ‘click on the screen to play!’ and btw, this game IS possible to beat. I competed the island three times.
I agree, i can beat it even without easy mode
this acually works
i can’t get passed this game! I’m 12 and i am stuck on Twisted Wizard
does anyone else have any tips? thank-you so much Prickly Dolphin now some people out there will have hope of finishing this horrid game, i wish there was more people like u! 🙂
want to play head to head soupwords?
No one wont’s to play soupwords .aiko
That was so helpfull … NOT !!! don’t u think I already did this so thanks for basically repeating the instructions
It’s for people who don’t know!!!!!
guys, its not your fault that if u dont like twisted w. this is just a guide made to help beginners in the game. also, dont post mean comments because u know not everyone is good at everything. its just a game, okay? dont overreact to this, plz
and its not poptropicas fault, either. making a challenging makes games better, and thats why they made this guide 😀
Does the game really have sound?
well some stuff does like the desk bells the make a ding noise and u can find some on super power island in the comic shop and capes and mask i think shop
YO!!!!!YO!!!!! its hard to bet wimpy wonderland so. Just cuz u beat it dose’t make it easy for everyone else.
THX SO MUCH FOR THE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Friend me on Poptropica!!!!!!!! My username is Spencer81403
Add me as your friend because I’m awesome!! My Username: Pariscoffee. I sorta look like a zombie because of my new outfit!! I have completed one level and it is Reality TV island!!! Virus Hunter island is Awesome!!! And I can beat Twisted Wizard!!!!!😄🎀
well you can teach me
wow you have a lot of islands complete
i cant beat twisted wizard D:
click as fast as possible and build your fort directly around the wizard making the walls super thick!!!
I started playing when ghost story came out, how long is that? really bad at math!
I really don’t like the wizard game. Its because well its to short on time and I don’t get it.
🙂
I wish the game designers had kept the twisted wizard game as optional I have tried so many times trying to beat it with the easy mode and I still can’t beat it anyone got tips on defeating the game besides making the walls thick
bulid lots of bricks on your castle
When the orc’s eyes turn red, that means that they have a clear path to you.
\
When Wimpy Wonderland first came out you didn’t need to actually play twisted wizard for Greg. Now you don’t have the option to USE the twisted wizard guide. You can only examine it which is totally not fair because it can be pretty annoying to play
Tip: If you build at ring of building blocks around the wizard, It will magically fill up the space inside. but once the orges break through the ring, the wall dissapears. Build a big wide wall!
I found poptropica when i was visiting the offical Diary Of a Wimpy Kid website. it was showing the quote “Wimpy Wonderland Now On Poptropica!” But when I registered on thde next day Super Villian Island just released for the public.
that happened to me too! but that was the day wimpy wonderland is now online to everyone and thats the day red dragon island came out,
How do you enable cheats.I need to do that before I enable easy mode
Slanted Fish: It’s the same thing. The guide will explain how to enable easy mode.
ok
whoa whoa whoa whoa.
I’ve have tried it 107 times and I still can’t get it right.
can you help me?
thz
could you guys friend me
my username is ninja74580
ok
are you allowed to skip it like the salad thing
uh no
I take back what I said
As I’m a member, I know for a fact that before the island was released for non-members, you only had to open the curtains, not do both. I liked the old way better. 😦
I’VE BEATEN IT WITHOUT CHEATS MODE!!! I ONLY JUST BEAT IT!!!
i can’t turn it on easy mode and i still haven’t completed wimpy wounderland. is that why?
never mind, i beat it without easy mode!
lololololol so hard on the island though I’m gonna go onto poptropica to play now.
Toooooooo hardz 😦
it is not working is there a video on how to do this
I don’t know
thx
im 12 years old in (2015)
I will be 12 yr old on aug. 20.
it says you need to enable cheats how do you do that?
you have to click the wizard at the main screen at the start
If you click on Greg after reading the game guide in Wimpy Wonderland Island, he will say he already has cheats enabled. Just click the wizard and a message should pop up saying “EASY MODE ENABLED”. Just click the play button and you should be good to go!
I found out that you have to click on the wizard on the very first screen… I just wanted to add a couple things. You should focus on building a wall with at least one square thick first, keep adding to it to make it a whole lot thicker until you run out of time and/or blocks. Also, if you get a breach in your wall, (like, a hole) then the ogre’s eyes turn red and they get faster and stuff. It might take a couple tries to get it… It took me like 100! 🙂 Thanks for making this, it helped me a lot.
Friend me if you want… My username is CC_Chameleon. 😀
I LOVE this game.
How do u friend someone again if thy give u their username. Pleas help me I need it.
Go to your friends profile and click on the little “+” button to the side, then enter your friend’s username and they’ll be added to your friends list. 🙂
I already knew that most people did any way
OMG THANK THANKYOU it was soo hard
this is so hard for me !!!
I HATE TWISTED WIZARD!!
i cant get past it so if anyone has any ideas of how to beat it PLEASE tell me.
Hey!!!!,Friend me okay my username account is DJrichard7
You want something nearly impossible? Try Water Run on RTV. There is nothing harder!
Like, I’ve only beaten it once.
Lol I used to be a pro at that game at one point by memorizing everyone’s pattern.
Hate twisted wizard
OH MAN, I’m the worst at this game!! It’s to hard fr me in the 2nd&3rd rounds!!!!!
And ppl, seeing my gravatar don’t think I’m a boy, I’m a gal!
I can never get past Twisted Wizard! I’m terrible at it!:(
So am I, Twisted Wizard is so hard, why can’t Greg just stop playing the game and try to find his brother like he’s supposed to?! #WorstBrotherEVER
I agree with DancingBeaver101, this game is really hard I can’t even pass the second level.
I want to stop playing the game, but then I don’t I hate that feeling, and I am Nadia, I just put Nadia because I thought we needed to put our birth name.
This is SO HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I finally beat it this past april and I have been stuck on it for nearly 3 YEARS. I finally beat it without the guide.😎I ❤ this guide
I only got to the 3rd wave once! This is so complicated. I heard Poptropica is going to update it. I hope they make it easier or optional or something like that. Otherwise I’ll NEVER EVER BEAT THE GAME. Anyway thanks for the guide.
UGH! +sigh+ can’t get frustrated on the game cause it is only a game.
Actually, the trick to tap super fast and build two blocks around you like I did to complete this island
(I defeated it, I failed on the blocks one many times first) for the build the blocks one
Actually,Reality Island is one of the islands I cannot complete honestly.( not like Nabooti) since I completed the other sponsored ones before they were locked.
Twisted Wizard is easy! :mr green:
I mean
Don’t create a wide area for your castle. One touch by an ogre will destroy a block and as you try to kill that ogre, another one can come out of nowhere touch the corner of that wide area snd destroy the entire barrier.
couldn’t beat this as a kid in primary school.. ten years later as an adult and I still can’t 😥 (I’m playing on flashpoint)
How do I get to gramma’s house
Check out our Wimpy Wonderland Island Guide for how to complete it! 🙂 You’ll have to dodge the Whirley Street kids’ snowballs to get to Greg’s grandma’s home near the laundromat.
