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.

I defeated captain crawfish but where do I go to get the island medallion??? HELP
I’m having trouble getting money to buy the pheonix warbird ship. Can anyone tell me the fastest was to get money please?
I HATE THIS ISLAND SOOOOO MUCH ITS LIKE EWWWW
I’m having trouble defeating Captain Crawfish. I have Phoenix Warbird Ship and am in the area of the island, but I can’t defeat Crawfish. Can you give me advice?
To get more money, you just need to keep doing the cycle around… it takes a long time! Took me an hour.
i cant get enough money how does the person on the walk through get so much money.
u get it from the guy who was lost at sea the one who gave you the 1st boat …well at least i think i’m not Albert Einstien
I can’t finish this hard island! ALL because i can’t get enough money for a Pheonix Warbird!!!!!!!!
(yes, a lot of faces showing how I feel right now)
HELP ME ITS SO HARD TO GET DOUBLOONS!!!!!!!
SAMEE, i agree with you
i need to get A LOT of them :O
I Need HELP!! i went to the missing island, skull duggery, and i havent gotten the biggest ship or crew members yet! every time i try to leave the island Captain Crawfish keeps attacking me! What do i do???!?!
if you all buy ships you’ll get discount on the phoenix warbird
i h8 this island!
yes it is hard to get doubloons, my ship is only the jimmy bigger i can not afford any other ship or crew or anything im poor on poptropica HELP LEND ME DOUBLOONS PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU I`LL DO ANYTHING PLEASE HELP ME I WISH I WERE RICH ON POPTROPICA HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP
that`s rude lazy bones u text your mother with that phone?????????????? I know it`s hard but keep trying and keep working on deafeating captin crawfish i know u can do it!!!!!! PS this island is great
oh, and that was for you too friendly monster who is not-so-friendly
This game isn’t to hard when you get a warbird boat.But I dont know where to get the treasure map a shovels.
ohh me too!!!!! but just the ppart where you need to get the bigger ship.. so hard
fill up your cargo hold with the best selling stuff
AHHH! So hard im kinda gettin bored
Yes, yes, it’s hard getting doubloons but if you kill the sea monsters by Dragon Cove island that gives you a lot of cargo and doubloons, I also recommend that you scour the sea for any abandoned cargo that you find….start small!!! get the crew first with the one that costs the least and keep defeating monsters and you’ll then b able to focus on buying the ships…..well…that’s my advice…just saying..
someone beat Captain Crawfish for me plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz
After you defeat Captain Crawfish you go back to the main island and talk to the guy with the hat again who you gave the blue candle to earlier. He’ll give you the map and shovel and you go back to the secret island and shovel it out. Then just go on from there. I think you can figure it out. Ask if you need any more help
Feed it to the parrot.
what do u do to get the last treasure map . cheers.
all i can say for getting a bigger ship is if u put enough effort trading clockwise selling the higher priced items on the different islands and buying the cheapest items and doing that over and over im sure that u could get the bigger ships and crew members
Tip: Stay around Golden Harbor. I don’t know why but there is a lot of salvage there.
Awww
Why didn’t you make a written walk-through?!?!?
The videos are SO SLOW on my computer!
The way I won the island is I traded for about half an hour, then just stayed around Golden Harbor collecting selvage until i had fifty thousand doubloons. Then I put a loan for another fifty thousand doubloons. Then I bought the Phoenix War bird and beat Captain Craw-fish. There is SOOOO much salvage around Golden Harbor!!!!
Yellow Wing you need to find the secret island!
BUY THE NAVIGATOR FIRST SHE IS ONLY TWELVE THOUSAND!!!
This island is pretty easy. So on each island, except for parrot port, there is one item less than 20. Buy the max for that and go clockwise. They will be worth a lot on the next island. Sell out all of it and buy the cheapest item. You’ll eventually make a lot. I just did it for one hour and I defeated Captain Craw-fish. It just takes a long time.
I have no idea what to do
i’m just proud of my achievement on shrink ray island!! if you haven’t done that yet do it!!! but u need the cheat, or else i think it’s impossible, good luck!
hey, caroline. how do u get a million doubloons by registering?????????
I hate this island why cant you people make it easy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????????????????????????????

How can i get the warbird ship?I have enought doublons(4023)…please help me!!!!
This is pretty easy
PLease type a written one
hi im new this is my first comment heres a tip the ship thats 200`000$ if you get that you have more storage space to get more money then you can get the war ship
i hoped my other comment helpd!!
I keep sinking when Captain Crawfish is around! (It doesn’t help that octopuses come around too.)
If you need more money keep getting bigger ships, that made it quicker for me.
and…….
I FINALLY DID IT! THIS WAS THE LAST ISLAND I NEEDED TO BEAT TO GET ALL OF THE MEDALS! I EVEN GOT GHOST STORY ISLAND! (i got a poptropica membership for Christmas…so i beat Ghost Story Island!) BUT I DID IT! and i did have problems beating captian crawfish. SO NOW I BEAT ALL OF THE ISLANDS for now…Thanks for all of your help Fierce Moon!
