I’m Ready for SpongeBob Island 🧽🍍

March 5, 2021March 6, 2021 Purple Paw

Heyo Poptropicans! Purple here with fresh news: the long-requested but never before seen Spongebob Island has appeared on the map!

According to the creators, fans have petitioned them, sent them letters, and made posts across social media in the hopes of one day seeing Atlantic City in Poptropica. And now, on time with the release of “The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run,” SpongeBob’s arrived! To access Spongebob Island, find it near Snagglemast on the map — or enter it through the ads in the in-between scenes on any island.

Upon landing in the glorious underwater world of Atlantic City, you’ll find Spongebob himself waiting for you with a mission. His pet snail Gary’s gone missing, and he needs you to follow the suspicious slime trail and find the lost snail!

As you follow the trail, it’s difficult not to get distracted by the prizes and attractions surrounding you! It couldn’t hurt to stop by the movie theater on your way to grab the SpongeBob’s Boat prize and indulge in a fun game of Snack Attack.

The rules of Snack Attack are simple: you’re given 4 minutes on the clock to gather 70 movie snacks from various places around the room. Once you’ve finished picking up as much popcorn, soda, and candy as you can, you’ll be rewarded with two prizes: the SpongeBob Follower (who’s as big as your character) and Character Emojis (press space bar to say some of SpongeBob’s iconic phrases).

If collecting all those snacks made you hungry, hop on up to the top of the Snack Attack theater, where you’ll find Patrick Star enjoying a delicious Krabby Patty or two! Crank the lever to unleash a torrent of Krabby Patties falling from the sky. 🍔

Run further along down the road — passing Mr. Krabs and his pincers of money on the way — and you’ll find Sandy Cheeks waiting with three familiar head-to-head mini-games: High Dive (Sky Dive), Star Link, and Bubble-loons (Balloons), all fashioned to fit the SpongeBob ocean theme. Think you’ve got what it takes to beat your opponent?

Now, that’s all very enjoyable, but enough fun and games — we can’t forget the missing snail Gary and his snaking slime trail! Follow the snail trail all the way up to the huge pair of dice on the rooftop, where you’ll find Gary with a pair of Character Balloons. Go ahead and grab those balloons; they’ll be added to your inventory as a bonus prize. Huzzah!

Now that you’ve seen all there is to see on SpongeBob Island, take a look at the Creators’ other exciting announcement: they’re going to be giving away 5 one-year memberships to the makers of the funniest videos involving SpongeBob Island! If you’ve been hoping for a chance to win a free membership, then this is your opportunity to get creating. Or, if you don’t win this time around, you could always enter in the PHB’s monthly membership giveaways instead!

Welp, that’s just about all for today! Were all the games and prizes fun enough for you, or was your vacation to Atlantic City not what you’d hoped for? Are you planning on entering the SpongeBob video contest? Comment your opinions down below!

The PHB’s 7th Halloween Competition (and 20M Hits Bonus!)

October 11, 2015June 6, 2021 Slanted Fish

Boo, Poptropicans! Halloween is approaching, and that means… it’s time for another Halloween costume competition here on the PHB! This will be our 7th year in a row, but we’re adding a special twist: with the recent Photo Booth added to Poptropica’s Home Island, you can enter a picture creation for a chance to win a membership from the PHB! Sound spooktacular?

Part I: Costume Competition

Traditionally, Poptropicans submit their best Poptropica Halloween costumes in the comments section by giving an Avatar Studio link and/or posting their username. Keep in mind the following tips:

Be original! Mix and match to create your own unique costume(s).
There are some great Halloween costume parts at the ghoul gathering from the end of the Haunted House quest from the Store, as well as the collection of free costumes in the Store, but be creative and search in other places too!
Keep your costume intact until after the winners are announced, or we may not see it! If you don’t want to keep the costume on your main account, create a new one and post that instead.
To post your entry, go to the Avatar Studio, type in your username, click Load, click on the Link to highlight it, right-click and choose Copy, go to the comments section on this post, right-click and choose Paste, type in your comment and submit so we can view your costume by clicking the link! Name your costume and post the username if you want.

PRIZES: On Halloween (October 31st), we’ll make a post featuring the winning costumes, plus they will also be immortalized on the PHB’s Costumes page, where you can also see examples of past winners. We’ll have 10 winners for the costume portion, but wait, there’s more…

Part II: Photo Booth Competition

This year, to celebrate our recent milestone of 20 million views here on the PHB, we’re adding a new portion to the competition: the Photo Booth, where we’ll pick another 10 winners for a total of 20!

If you haven’t checked out the Photo Booth on Home Island yet, now’s the time! Poptropica recently added lots of Halloween props to the feature, and you can check out the PHB’s Photo Booth guide here. The objective of this competition is to create the best Halloween picture with your character in it using the Photo Booth, which means you’ll need a snazzy Halloween costume on (see part I)!

For anyone entering this part of the competition, you’ll also need to complete Part I and share a link to your Poptropican to prove that you own the character you use in your Photo Booth pic. This part is optional, but like the first part, we’ll be selecting 10 winners, and the PRIZES get better…

First place: 6-month membership
Second and third place: 3-month membership
4th to 10th place: 1-month membership

That’s right, you can enter for a chance to win a membership paid for by the PHB!

Important: If you are selected to win one, you must be comfortable in privately contacting us with your login credentials (username and password) so that the membership may be awarded. If you have a currently active membership and are selected, keep in touch with us about when it expires and we will work something out (or, you can donate your membership prize to an honorable mention entrant). 🙂

How to enter:

Create your picture with the Photo Booth on Home Island, being sure to include your character wearing a spooktacular Halloween costume somewhere in it.
Press the green checkmark button to save the image to your computer.
Upload the image somewhere on the web (for example, tinypic) that will give the image a URL.
Copy and paste the image URL into the comments section along with the instructions from part I (Avatar Studio link of your costume and/or username). This will allow us to see the image online.

Note: For both competitions, you can submit as many entries as you like, but you can only win a maximum of one time. Have fun! You have until Halloween.

Happy Halloween, Poptropicans… 😈

May the spookiest rise from their graves.

Despicable Me 2 and Non-Stop Summer Games!

June 25, 2013June 25, 2013 Fuzzy-B

Get your fart guns ready, because there are two new advertisement buildings on Poptropica!

First off, there is a new ad on Main Streets for Despicable Me 2, in theaters July 3rd.

Inside the building there are three different games you can play. The first of which is Bee-Do: The Emergency Minion response game. This game is very similar to the old game Donkey Kong. You have to climb up through Gru’s lab using the arrow keys and put out the fire with a fire extinguisher. Make sure to dodge the falling cups that come at you! Pick up cupcakes, unicorns, and bananas for bonus points. Your prize is your very own Minion Costume!

The next game is a training mission from Lucy, an agent of AVL. This game is like a scavenger hunt. You have to find four items that have been scattered throughout the mall. They are a lipstick taser, a blue car, a freeze ray, and an AVL badge. You are provided with a radar which shows you where all of the items are located so it isn’t too difficult. Once all four are found you win the Lipstick Taser Power which lets you give other Poptropicans a little shock and the Fart Gun Power which lets you knock over other Poptropicans with that gnarly stink.

The last game is Bop-a-Minion. It is very similar to Wac-a-Mole. You have to hit the minions as they pop up. Hitting minions holding coins will earn you in-game money towards unlocking new minions to bop. Minions holding a 200 sign are worth 200 bonus points. Make sure not to hit minions holding bombs because that will mean game over for you. Your prize for this game is the Freeze Ray Power which lets you freeze other Poptropicans in blocks of ice!

Next is a new building for Disney XD’s Non-Stop Summer. Once you enter the building on Steamworks Island you can hop on a bike and make your way to the adventure. Once you have won all of the games, you get a special bonus prize, but that will have to wait until July 8th when the last game is released. (Note: You may find this ad in the transition area between places. Just click to go to the Disney XD ad!)

NSS2 — I see, it’s clever because the bike tires make an infinity sign.

The first stop on this summer road trip is at the Kickin’ It: Race the Black Dragons game. This game is a plain old race to the finish. Beat the Red Dragon bike to the finish by hitting green speed boosts and dodging puddles and pot holes. If you win you earn the Kickin’ It High Kick Power!

Next up on our road trip is the Crash and Bernstein Burp Along game. Hit the arrow keys in the correct order to copy Bernstein’s burp pattern. Once you match him burp for burp six times you win the Crash Follower.

The last stop on our road trip as at the Lab Rats: Virus Eddie game. This is a matching game, so you have to find and match both of pictures of each character. Once you have matched all four pairs you win the Adam’s Laser Vision Power which lets you shoot optic blasts where ever you point your mouse.

Which mini-game is your favorite to play? I personally enjoyed the Bop-a-Minion.
