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.
Fort Ridley Walkthrough
The first part of the Skullduggery Island quest is to help the people out at Fort Ridley. Here’s a video walkthrough of all the cheats and secrets for Fort Ridley. After you solve this part of the quest, you’ll get your own ship and start sailing from port to port.
Getting the Map Pieces
In part two of the video walkthrough for Skullduggery, you’ll embark on your high seas adventure. At first, it’s just you and two crew members aboard a dinky little raft. You’ll go from port to port looking for the missing pieces of the treasure map and trading goods to make more money along the way. Check out this video to see how to find the map pieces in the first four islands you visit: Bouffant Bay, Parrot Port, Golden Harbor and the dark and mysterious Pirate Cove.

Oh,everybody is attacking me in poptropica.Like as if Im wanted or their my enemies…EVEN THOUGH I DONT KNOW THEM!!!!
I DID IT! it took forever but i compled all 28 islands. Tip, don’t buy from Parrot Port and upgrade your ship whenever possible. A crew is important as well, and you may want to try and build yours up early on.
beat it!! felt so good afterward
Weird Glitch:
every time I defeat Captain Crawfish,His health goes up.
1 ships,2 octopus and 1 lobster were attacking me!
I defeated Captain Crawfish !
thanks to these tutorials i just finished my last island, so stop your HATING!!!!!
wheres the written walk through!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?
“fierce moon” u need to give us the complete video this helped me to nothing!!!!(angry)
(rolls eyes)
i cant do it!
>:(
yay i did it!

☺☺☺☺☺
when i was going to pirate outpost to trade my grain, i got misleaded by a nearby ship and when i went to attack it,i saw it was no ordinary ship,it was CAPTAIN CRAWFISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is probably the most longest game i ever played it took me 1week to finish it
Hi Fierce Moon! I followed your walkthrough up to the part where you list the best places to buy and sell cargo, but then when I watched the part when you bought your first employee I saw that you had 100,000+ doubloons. Well, I only have around 7,000 doubloons and that was after selling cargo, buying cargo, picking up salvage, and taking out a 2,000+ doubloon loan. Anyway, I just wanted to find out how you made so many doubloons and how long it took you to get so many, because I actually quit this island and moved on to the other islands for a while since I couldn’t make enough doubloons. If I sell all my cargo it won’t really make a difference because I don’t think it will really add much to my doubloon balance, and I still have to pay the bank 2,000+ doubloons. If you think it will help though, I have 5 spice, 5 medicine, 5 grain, and 5 silk. Please help me make as many doubloons as you so I can finally finish this island, and move on to Steamships Island knowing I defeated Captain Crawfish! Thanks in advance!
P.S-Sorry this letter was so long :}
I bought the Koi and i accidently re-bought the Sea Sultan!!!! How Sick!!!! I have the whole crew (which is good) but i raather have the Koi back that a ship held together by rope (and possibly duck tape) Lol!!!!! Add me!!!!! Knockknock36!!!! Oh and one more thing!!!! I painted my nails!!! Green hahahahaha! That was not funny…
can someone tell me where the bone shovel is
the written walk through is better. Where is it. I cant get the governor guy to give me the shovel. I have gotten all the ship mates and ships. I am almost done with all the islands. This game is soooooooooooo fun
how can i get the piece of the archipelago map?
There was a large lobster trying to attack me and there’s some stuck-up ship calling me names, ugh.
This is kinda like school, when you think about it. Huge monsters attack you, and stuck-up ships call you names.
I don’t know how to shoot the cannons properly. They keep misfiring, help?
The last battle is soo freaking hard! Argh, any tips on beating Crawfish? Every time I manage to shoot his ship (which is like every 20 minutes or something) he goes off screen and his health goes up.
Oh my! I just made it to the next port using my RAFT and 2!!! TWO pirate ships were after me and a third close behind! That was scary close XD and I survived!! lol. Talk about luck
This is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can’t finish this. I like can’t pass this
can you please make a written walkthrough? The video doesnt load fast enough!
ok where is th written walkthrough it so much better u know what i can do by myself *angry* >:(
i cant afford to buy the crew i need help! please help me get enough money to buy the crew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
add me on poptropica
i just got the phoenix warship and it is my 58th day. i didn’t use the videos, just sailed around, buying and selling cargo and trying not to die. wish me luck in the final battle!
friend me jthorr4243

DOn’t READ THIS. YOU WILL BE KISSED ON THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. NOW THAT YOU’VE STARTED READING, DOn’t STOP. THIS IS SO FREAKY. 1 say your name 10 times 2. say your mum’s name 5 times and your crushes name 3 times 4. paste this onto 4 other games. If you do this, your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday possible. But if you read this and do not paste this, you will get bad luck. SEND THIS ON 5 DIFFERENT GAMES IN 143 MINUTES. WHEN YOUR DONE, PRESS F6 AND YOUR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO FREAKY IT ACTUALLY WORKS
any body who don’t know how to beat Captain Craw fish, here the tip its kinda hard but you have to have the war bird phonex ship
bronx… i think u mean bronze fish:just keep buying and selling and try 2 find as much salvage as u can smart thunder: KEEP TRYING
i did not get the scrap of paper on the door : [
I had 3 ships on me and i had no cannons Crazy
I was heading to Pirate Outpost in my pitful little Koi-and then Captain Crawfish started attacking me!
If anyone needs some dubloons, head to the area around Golden Harbour. I find that area pretty good.
I’ m so proud! I just killed three pirate ships, two pufferfish, two crabs, and one octopus! All with my brand-new Phoenix Warbird while trying to sail to Bouffant Bay! I think that just spoiled all my glory.
Dude, I got chased by 5 boats. 2 crabs, 3 jumping fish and 4 octopus!
So annoying
can’t fierce moon ever watch other walkthrough and get some ideas?
