Skullduggery Island on Poptropica

Skullduggery Island

by Fierce Moon on April 22, 2010

Update:The dates for Skullduggery Island have been announced! The island will be available for paid members on May 20, 2010. Everyone else will need to wait until June 17.

If you take a look at the Poptropica Creators Blog, you’ll see a recent post with a new sneak peek screenshot for the upcoming island about Pirates. The picture looks like a Chinese Junk in a harbor and the caption reads:

Ahoy! We’ve been sailin’ the high seas for more Poptropica adventures! Arr…what be this new port?

If you really pay attention, though, and either download the picture like I did or look at the HTML source code, you’ll see that the name of the image file is SkullduggeryIsland01.png. Unless the Creators are trying to fool us (which they might) it sounds like this new pirate-themed island coming up will be called:

Skull Duggery Island

Tada! I hope that is a name because it’s the best one I have heard so far. By the way, the phrase skullduggery is an old pirate phrase that means underhanded or unscrupulous behavior.

And yes, the name has been confirmed. There’s even a promo page for the new island and it looks really cool. You can even download a sweet-looking Wallpaper that looks like this:

Skullduggery Island Wallpaper

Skullduggery Island Wallpaper. It looks very cool!

Here’s what the promotional page for the island says:

Set sail for adventure! Outwit cunning pirates and battle fierce sea monsters in the biggest Poptropica quest yet. Build your ship. Assemble your crew. Rule the sea!

Special Skullduggery Items

Poptropica has released some Skullduggery special items for members. The first is a Skullduggery Pirate Costume and the second is a sneak peek trailer of the island.

Check back here to see all the cheats for Skullduggery Island on Poptropica once it is released for members in early access mode (hopefully soon!)

More Sneak Peeks

The creators are regularly posting to the Poptropica blog. Here’s a look at another sneak peek screenshot of Skullduggery Island which was posted on May 4. It’s a closeup and hard to tell what it is exactly, but it appears to be some sort of ship in the shape of a bird.

The latest news is that there’s now an official trailer posted on the blog. Watch the video here and you’ll learn that Skullduggery Island is going to be really different from most of the other islands on Poptropica.

@ jOY: Hit the 3rd plant, then the 1st plant, then the 2nd plant. The plants are hanging near the end of the place. Just run until you see a few pirates poking around plants.

how the heck you get the last crew member in pirates outpost????????????????

zoe September 18, 2011 at 4:07 am

it isnt a special one you jump next to them in order first hit the third one then…..

calm panda! (pop name) December 23, 2011 at 8:57 pm

ok peeps look just do this: once you get your raft you must get all the map peices…the cavity on pirate outpost (get the gun starter kit and then fire the cannon at the gold tooth), the plants at bouffant bay (3rd plant, 1st plant, 2nd plant), the fisherman at dragon cove (move him all the way to the stairs and then get the wood mallet to hit the gong, he will catch a fish), parrot at parrot port (go into the shop, get the cracker, give it to the parrot, follow the parrots instructions (the vent is a chimney) he tells you to go meet his friend after you do so, the friend will give you the map), light all the lamps at golden harbor (this is a bit tricky, but keep trying).
make sure you trade while visiting the islands. go in a clockwise order; to make the most money your motto will be “buy low, sell high”. only buy items if they are in the teens, they will vary from about 15 to 18 doubloons. at bouffant bay, buy medicine and sell silk. at parrot port, do not buy anything, it is too expensive, however sell your medicine. dont sell anything unless it is at least 30. at golden harbor the prices of selling things vary, but buy grain, as it is very cheap. repeat, only sell stuff if it is over 30 $.
at pirate outpost, sell the grain and buy spices. at dragon cove, sell spices and buy silk. then the circle repeats itself.
if u do this, you will soon have enough money to buy the next ship.
it will usually take you about 2 loops to do this.
after getting the carrabele, buy the trade master.
he will help you by increasing the amount of cargo your ship can hold.
then get all the other ppl and keep upgrading your ship.
it will take a couple hours to get the phoenix warbird, but once you have him, head straight to skullduggery, the hidden island.
captaincrawfish will then attack you.
to defeat him u need to be very near the dock of the island so you can repair your ship if needed. your ship should repair itself very slowly with the shipright on deck.
then wait for him. if he doesnt come, go look for him.
to kill him, you just aim and hold down your mouse to continue to fire, with the cannoneer, u will reload much faster.
u will sink his ship with the warbird, so then go back to visit the governer and dig up the treasure.
i hope this helped!

Callie December 28, 2011 at 6:11 pm
