Poptropica Cheats and Secrets

New Rock Star Outfits in Poptropica Store

PoptropicaSecrets — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 02:00:50 +0000

There are two new Rock Star outfits available in the Poptropica Store (one for girls and one for boys). They’re officially called the Rock Star 2 costumes because they’re an update to the original Rock Star outfit from last year. The new outfits look pretty cool and have a different electric guitar. When you hit the spacebar while holding the guitar, you’ll rock out! Just like with most outfits, they cost 75 credits to purchase. If you’re a Poptropica member, you can get the outfit for free. There are five different colors for the new Rock Star 2 outfit (the original only had three to choose from).

Here is what the new Rock Star 2 card looks like in the store.

You can still purchase the original Rock Star outfit from the store and it also costs 75 credits. Here’s a look at the original outfit and card:

New Micro Quest Coming Soon

admin — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:14:54 +0000

There hasn’t been much news in Poptropica since the early access release of Reality TV Island, but now there’s a mysterious post on the Creator’s blog talking about a new micro-quest that will be released soon in the Poptropica Store. Here is what Vlad the Viking has to say on the official blog:

It seems that a certain character is up to his old tricks again. I can’t say I wish that he would stop it, because stopping him will be so much fun! Keep ever watchful, because this new micro-quest will be coming soon to the Poptropica store!

As you can tell from the picture, this definitely has something to do with Dr. Hare, the evil bunny villain from 24 Carrot Island. When that quest finished up, Dr. Hare was launched into space in his rocket, which was (we thought) destroyed. But Dr. Hare is alive and planning something sinister. I hope everyone will be able to play this new micro-quest with credits or for free instead of having to be a paid member but who knows?

Poptropica Reality TV Island Walkthrough

PoptropicaSecrets — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 14:48:00 +0000

Poptropica Reality TV Island has finally arrived after a tremendous amount of build-up, anticipation and delays. If you’ve got a Poptropica Membership, you’ll have early access to the island. If you’re not a paid member, you’ll need to wait until March 24th to play it. That’s when it opens up for general access.

This new island works a little differently than all the other islands on Poptropica. There are essentially two parts. The first is the opening scene where you need to figure out how to become a contestant on a new reality TV show. This is a lot like previous quests but a lot shorter. Check out the video walkthrough of part 1 to see everything you need to do. The second part is an actual competition where you have to beat the other contestants in a series of daily challenges and avoid getting voted off. If you win the final competition, you’ll win the contest and get the island medallion. The competitions are random and different players will get different competitions, so there’s no one simple walkthrough for part 2. But check out the video I made for part 2 because it gives tips and cheats for a lot of the different challenges. I’ll post even more really soon. Some are really easy but others are very difficult.

But don’t worry! We’ve got screenshots, cheats, tips and yes, even a full walkthrough of the island right here. Read on for all the details and please post a comment with your thoughts on Reality TV Island. I’ll be posting more guides and details as I uncover them.

Video Walkthrough

Here is part one of the Walkthrough from YouTube. Part one shows you everything you need to do to become a contestant on the show.

Once you’re on the show, you’ll get a random selection of competitions. Here is part 2 of the walkthrough, which shows some tips and tricks on how to beat some of them.

Screenshots of Reality TV Island

Here are some fun screenshots and more from the newest quest.

Counterfeit Island Walkthrough Updated

PoptropicaSecrets — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 00:47:52 +0000

OK, so I have had the video walkthrough of Counterfeit Island going for a long time. The first part has 500,000 views on YouTube. Thank you everyone for watching it! I’ve gotten a lot of requests for a written walkthrough and I finally put it together for those of you who don’t want to watch the videos. I updated my Poptropica Counterfeit Island Walkthrough with the written version, so if you haven’t tackled this island yet, enjoy!

And get ready for Wednesday when the new Reality TV Island comes out. I’ll post a video and written walkthrough as soon as I can. Keep your eyes peeled here!

Reality TV Island Launch Date Set

PoptropicaSecrets — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 04:00:01 +0000

The big upcoming news is that the newest island in Poptropica, Reality TV Island, will arrive for members next Wednesday, February 24. You must be a paid Poptropica member to get early access to the island. You won’t be able to buy early access with credits, like we were able to with Astro-Knights Island and Counterfeit Island. The island will stay in early access for an entire month and become publicly available on March 24.

A whole month in early access seems really long. I guess Poptropica really wants people to buy those memberships! Check back here on Wednesday to get the walkthrough and all the Poptropica cheats and secrets for the new Reality TV island!

Big Hearted Costume and Love Potion Power

PoptropicaSecrets — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 05:55:58 +0000

There are two new items in the Poptropica Store to celebrate Valentine’s Day. The first is the Big Hearted costume, which is basically just a big pink heart. It reminds me a lot of the recent Candy Cane costume or some of the older fries and shake costumes. The costume costs 75 credits if you want to purchase it. If you’re a member, you can wear it for free.

The second item is the love potion power. You can use it on any character in Poptropica and then little floating hearts will start appearing above them. It’s love at first sight! The power costs 250 credits in the Poptropica store and of course is free to use if you’re a monthly subscriber.

Midas Touch Power

PoptropicaSecrets — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 17:28:43 +0000

There’s a new power available in the Poptropica Store called Midas Touch. It costs 250 credits to purchase, and of course Poptropica Members get it for free. You can use it on yourself or any character you see in Poptropica. Using the power makes the Poptropican turn gold with a little golden glow. Beyond that, it doesn’t do very much but it looks kind of cool!

Here is a short little YouTube video that shows how the power works:

Super Monkey Ball Advertisement Walkthrough

PoptropicaSecrets — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 18:07:12 +0000

There’s a new advertisement mission up for some of the islands. You need to be between 7 and 12 to see it and it’s only on some of the islands, like Shark Tooth and 24 Carrot. The ad is for Super Monkey Ball and the game is very simple. You have to collect 55 bananas from the machine in 60 seconds. It’s very easy to do if you just move around and try to find large bunches of bananas. Get it? Bunches of bananas. Yeah, ummm…

Here’s a walkthrough video of the game. The reward at the end is a very cool looking monkey costume.

Strange New Island

PoptropicaSecrets — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 17:30:22 +0000

While we’re all eagerly awaiting the early access release of Reality TV Island, the Poptropica Creators posted a sketch showing scenes from another upcoming island. Very little about it is revealed. The post is by Hazmat Hermit and all he says is:

Yesterday Vlad showed me some sketches he made of one of the strangest islands yet. These can’t possibly be real, can they?

The filename is structureSketches.jpg which means that the pictures are of some sort of building. They look very space-age in their appearance, so I don’t think it’s got anything to do with the Mythology Island that has shown up in the blog recently. This could be yet another island in the works. The membership site hints that a lot of new islands will be released in 2010.

BTW, CoderKid over at the PHB says that he’s got confirmation that to get early access to Reality TV Island and all future islands you’ll need to be a member. This means you won’t be able to purchase or use credits to get an early access pass. If that’s true, that would be really unfair for anyone who bought lots of credits before membership was announced. Hopefully they’ll let anyone who bought credits previously use them for Early Access, but we’ll see.

Poptropica Honey Nut Cheerios Honey Defender

PoptropicaSecrets — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 23:13:23 +0000

The latest advertisement going on in Poptropica is an ad for the Honey Nut Cheerios Honey Defender video game. This advertisement will appear for everyone in Poptropica. There’s not really much to do besides jump around inside the hive, watch a video of the game, and get a costume. You can click on a link to play the game, but it’s not on Poptropica. You’ll go instead to the Funbrain web site where you can play the game if you have the Unity plug-in for your browser. There’s also a quiz you can do about the game, but there’s no prize.

The Buzz Costume inside the Honey Nut Cheerios Ad

So this whole ad is kind of pointless. It’s really just an advertisement with no real game to play. The Buzz bee costume is pretty good though and makes it worth checking out. To get the costume, go inside and jump up to the left and you can then click on the bee mannequin to put it on.

Buzz!
