If yer longin’ for high seas adventure, get yerself to Poptropica now! What follows are all the tips you be needin’ to learn how to beat Skullduggery Island, find out all the cheats and secrets, and have a great time playing this new adventure.
Skullduggery Island is about pirates. You get your own ship, assemble a crew and try to build wealth through trade at different ports. You’ll also help the island get rid of a pirate nuisance, led by the dangerous and dastardly pirate, Captain Crawfish. This new island will be more complex than previous Poptropica quests and among lots of other things it will include a very cool top-down view as you travel from place to place. And to keep it interesting, you’ll have to fight other pirate ships and even sea monsters.
The adventure begins at Fort Ridley, an island in the middle of a small archipelago that has been ransacked by the notorious pirate, Captain Crawfish. When you arrive on the island, you will need to help the islanders, who are living in extreme poverty due to Crawfish’s plundering. After you help the islanders, you’ll discover the legend of a valuable treasure map. Soon, you’ll get your own ship and a small crew and set sail to find the pieces of the map and ultimately try to defeat Captain Crawfish and his crew of dastardly pirates.

rain3382, im with you to. i like the written walkthroughs better. i love to read, and my computer doesnt load vids.
i hate this island.. took me two weeks to have The Koi and two weeks more to have the Phoenix Wardbird.. Now i cant defeat Captain Crawfish!! I REALLY hate this island ¬¬

I hate this island cuz I can’t defeat Crawfish :’(
I hate Skullduggery Island!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i finished all the worlds in poptropica
wow! it took me exactly 3 days to get the Koi and Im sure I can get the Phoenix Warbird but Im not so sure about the fight with Captain Clawfish…… either way, this island is not so bad. But seriously I got the Koi in just three days along with all the crew mambers (and consedering I’m pretty ok at electronic games all is going well!)
P.S- If you want to steal tresure from other evil ships go over near golden harbour with all the rocks and when a ship attacks hide behind a rock and shoot your cannon at them!
how many dubloons have to take to have a crew!!!!!!!!!!!
how did u get the better ship?
I like skulldugerry because I am AWESOME BLOSSOM. Not to brag, I am good at everything. I play the flute, piano, trumpet, violin, guitar, cello, and fiddle. I am good at dancing and I love ballet so much. It is fun. I love it. I defeated so much islands in poptropica. I love being a kid really much. I have my own mac laptop and I am very spoiled. I like that way.

yeah, totally not to brag blossom
how do you get more dubloons without having selling supplies?!!!!?!1?!?!?!?!?! please help me!
Also, for a tip on how to defeat Captain Crawfish~
If he’s moving, he’s nearly impossible to hit. Get the Phoenix Warbird, and when you see him, remain stationary (or still). He’ll ram you, but don’t worry. As soon as you stop, fire away and have no mercy! You’ll have really low HP after it’s over, so flee quickly, because other pirates might spawn and attack you.
P.S. You’ll definitely need Crawfish’s former Gunner on Pirate Island, as he will maximize cannon speed.
does anyone have a written walkthrough?
