The App..

Poptropica has gone… mobile!!! They’ve released their iPhone App. It’s free to buy, and it gives walkthroughs for all the islands, but only one island guide is free. The rest you have to buy. Why, Creators, why!

Captain Crawfish: I have to make a livng besides what I get from pirating ships.

Angry Wing: It’s a rhetorical question!

Captain Crawfish: Oh. Anyway, here’s my post.

The Poptropica Tips & Tricks app is here!

We’ve been hinting about it, and at last, it’s here: the first ever Poptropica app, Poptropica: Official Tips & Tricks!

This is the only official app from the Poptropica Creators, and it’s the only app with detailed guides and hi-res screenshots of your favorite Poptropica Islands. Everyone who downloads the app gets the Game Show Island guide for FREE! Other guides are available in-app for only 99 cents each.

If you have an iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad, download the Poptropica Tips & Tricks app from the App Store.

If you have an Android-powered phone or tablet, download the Poptropica Tips & Tricks app from the Android Market.

Even more guides will be available soon for this app. Watch for updates!

Legend-wait for it-ary Swords

Legendary Swords has been out for six days, and beating all those wimpy robots is actually not that hard.

E. Vile: Hey! My robot minions are mighty and legendary masters of evil!

Angry Wing: Swords are legendary. Your robots are recyclable tin cans.

E. Vile: *runs off crying.* Why!

Angry Wing: I have to admit, I had a pretty great comeback.

Members get to play more of the game than the non-members do, unfortunately, but that’s all the more reason to get membership.

Here is a recent Creators posts about Legendary Swords:

More swords in Legendary Swords

If you’ve played Legendary Swords, then you already know that you’ll find two powerful blades on your quest: the Rusty Relic and the Bolt.

But you may not have realized that you can use any sword from the Poptropica Store in Legendary Swords! It’s easy — just go to your sword inventory and select the “store” tab.

You can go straight to that costume in the Poptropica Store, and get it with your Membership or for Credits. Then you can use even more swords in the game, like the Dark Knight Sword and the Laser Sword.

Game Show Island is Released!

It’s what you’ve all been waiting for: THE AMAZING GAME SHOW ISLAND!

That’s not all; non-members an even play a limited portion of it. I think the Creators are getting change-happy. Legendary Swords comes out one November 11 in the store. Apparently we get to use swords from the store. Here is the summary:

Legendary Swords Quest

Coming to Poptropica 11/11/11

On a distant planet, a hero explores a strange land to discover a race of aggressive and bizarre robots who are planning an invasion of Planet Poptropica! The only way the hero can stop this invading force is by using a series of hidden mystical swords that are scattered throughout the planet. Driven by courage (and a little fear), the hero must stop the invading robots and their diabolical master; the mysterious E. Vile!

And…Dr. Hare’s Secret Lab is available for everyone free in the store.

Wow. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Games Show-The precise date

As you all know, Game Show Island comes out for Members on Thursday. If you want to be the first one on, it starts at 3:00. So get on your computers at 2:59 and 59 seconds, and let the fun begin! Speaking of Game Show Island, have you played Money Ladder yet? If you win, you get three awesome prizes! Binary Rain, the Robot Dance, and a Disco Robot costume.

Remember, today is the last day to enter the code from the Poptropica Guidebook. If you want to find the code for yourself, buy the book. If you don’t want to find the book, highlight this space->|drcaptaingrande|

That’s it for today!

Game Show Island and Legendary swords!

First, all this Legend-wait for it-ary stuff has a name now. And its not an island. Here are the two videos for Legendary Swords!

And the poster that we thought was for an island.

I can’t wait! Here’s what the Creators say:

Announcing… Legendary Swords!

We’re excited to announce an all-new Poptropica experience: Legendary Swords!

What is Legendary Swords? It’s not an Island. It’s a brand-new type of adventure that will be available soon in the Poptropica Store.

We’ll have a lot more to tell you about Legendary Swords, including gameplay details and the release date, right here in the official Poptropica blog. In the meantime, get those reflexes ready — you’ll need them!

-Captain Crawfish

Game show island is also coming out soon. The info page is http://www.poptropica.com/island-tour/gameshow-island.html

Game Show Island main street

“Welcome to a future where robots rule. Building computers to compete on TV game shows seemed like a funny idea – until the machines wanted more. Now, after years of robotic dominance, Poptropica needs a savior. Are you clever enough to beat the robots at their own games, and restore the dignity of all Poptropicans?”

The mini-game is out! It’s the Money Ladder!

Money Ladder is now available!

Our new, Game Show Island-themed mini-game is now available! Just log onto Poptropica and go to your travel map to start climbing the Money Ladder!

This is a fun new trivia game that will test your smarts. If you need a little help, try calling one of the robot experts for help. The Professor, the Athlete, and the Starlet all have different areas of expertise, and can help you out with tough questions.

Visit Poptropica now to play Money Ladder!

The Official Guidebook is coming out soon, also. http://www.poptropica.com/books/official-guide-poptropica.html

New Members Only Items

There are two new Members Only Items in the store now as part of Poptropica’s fourth birthday! They are, drumroll please. . . . . . . .

Here is the full Creators post:

New this week in the Poptropica Store

The Poptropica birthday blowout continues, with the return of two long-lost items to the Poptropica Store!

This week, Poptropica Members can pick up the Nessie Hat, which you may remember as one of the most difficult items to find in the history of Poptropica. Only those few people who spotted the Loch Ness Monster in the Cryptids Island viewfinder won this hat. But now through the end of September, all Poptropica Members can get this hat to keep forever.

The other item is the Hypnotize costume, which was once available by clicking on a particular window in Early Poptropica. This time, you don’t need to go any further than the Poptropica Store.

These and all of the Poptropica birthday items will only be available until the end of September. That means you’ve only got 9 days to grab them before they’re gone again — and this time, they may never come back! If you’re already a Poptropica Member, visit the Store and get your free items. If you’re not yet a Member, find out how to get Poptropica Membership today.

And keep on rocking those 4th birthday balloons!

-Black Widow
The Creators are also still posting sneak peeks of the robot themed island on the Daily Pop. We were supposed to get more information in September, but that hasn’t happened yet. Still waiting…

Mystery Train, but first…

A moment of silence…

Alright, that’s settled. (It’s September 11th.)

Now for Poptropica related stuff, Mystery Train island is out for members! There’s also a demo version for non-members. I loved it! There are so many twists and turns in Mystery Train, and not just because it’s a train. It will come out for everyone in October. Speaking of October, what are the creators going to do for Halloween? I guess we’ll find out soon enough. And when will the mysterious robot-themed island come out? And what is it called? All these questions, yet to be answered. Remember to keep searching those common rooms for birthday balloon!

It’s Poptropica’s 4th birthday!!!!

Hello! Poptropica is celebrating its fourth birthday! On Poptropica, you can get a free birthday balloon in the store, just like last year on Poptropica’s 3rd birthday! Members can also get two Members Only items in the store!

Everyone can also get two free games in the store!
Remember these?

And.. “All throughout September, Poptropicans will have a chance to win a special birthday prize by visiting any common room.”

Also , Mystery Train island comes out in two days!

Mystery Train!

Mystery Train island comes out on September 9th! I can’t wait to get on that mystery train. Apparently, a lot of the passengers on the train are famous, like Harry Houdini, Mark Twain, Thomas Edison, and George W. Ferris. There are many more as well!

The creators are still posting sneak peeks for the unnamed robot island on the Daily Pop. It may be called E. Vile island. Well, I don’t have much more to say right now, so bye!
