The latest island on Poptropica is called S.O.S. Island. In this new quest on Poptropica, a whale-watching expedition strikes an iceberg and begins to sink. You need to rescue everyone on board the ship before it sinks into the frigid waters of the North Atlantic.
The island became available for members on Thursday, January 26, 2012 and for the public on February 16, 2012.
The storyline of S.O.S. Island sounds a lot like the real story of the Titanic, one of the most famous disasters in history. The ship sank after hitting an iceberg on April 14, 1912 — almost one hundred years ago! It was made even more famous by the huge movie from 1997 starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet.
In the Poptropica version, instead of a luxury liner crossing the Atlantic, the ship is a whale-watching pleasure cruise. And from the screenshots, it appears that the name of the ship is the Pequod, which is also the name of the fishing ship in the famous novel, Moby Dick by Herman Melville. Other than what we’ve been able to see in the sneak peeks and screenshots, little else is known about the new island.
Video Walkthrough
S.O.S. Island Trailer
Before the island was released, the Poptropica Creators posted an official S.O.S. Island trailer on YouTube. Check out that cool intro!
Bonus Quest
The creators announced that S.O.S. Island will have a bonus quest for members. After you complete the main island adventure and collect the medallion, you’ll have the chance to participate in a special bonus quest for members only. In this extra mission, you’ll go deep underwater to stop a dangerous oil leak. Plus, members will get a special costume pack and powers. Sounds cool!
S.O.S. Members Gear Pack
The special gear pack available to members at the launch of S.O.S. Island includes the following items, all of which can be purchased at the Poptropica Store:
- Sonar Power
Get the drop on anyone who’s trying to sneak up on you. - Fishing Pole
Perfect for well, fishing! - Sea Captain
Gives you that classic seafaring look with a white jacket and hat.
S.O.S. Island Screenshots
A few screenshots have been posted in the Sneak Peeks section and on the main Poptropica site showing what the island will look like. Take a peek!

Tacos ! i wanna be a vampire in the vamps curse and then cure myself and the other dude . did anyone else feel like barfing when katya and her boyfriend kissed in the end of vampire curse island . that was gross ! their lips stretched out and met .blech !!!!!!!! also i want to clean up the leaked oil but i dont want to have to pay to do something good in the game . seriously why do they have to be so greedy and make us pay to get bonus stuff . if i didnt love poptropica so much i would go on strike and not go onto it ever again . but im addicted to it . i wouldnt be able to survive if it ever shut down or something . its so fun but also some islands are super challenging but that makes them extra awesome . are there any other islands that have a bonus . whats up with them only giving us 50 poptropica coins instead of100 . thats really cheap . it doesnt cost them anything to give us all 100 coins so give the right amount and stop being cheap poptropica creators !!!!!!!!
this is scary and im scared to complete it
My character looks almost exactly like Katniss from The Hunger Games.
Why is it that in the ballroom scene she can’t control her character?
Does anyone realize that Katya and her boyfriends kiss was the first one on poptropica! Like EVER. But then again vampire games and movies are always really romantic! And yah golden thunder I know that was gross! Having them stretch out their lips and kiss! >: 0

I don’t know how to pass in the boat because the ice is very slippery.

Fearless Axe, I took a whole bunch of parts rom different costumes and now my avatar looks EXACTLY like Katniss. I saw the movie, have all 3 books, AND have the soundtrack! All I need are the 3 guides to the world of the Hunger Games, the tributes guide, and the other guide that I can’t remember. I also took a quiz and signed up to get a poster signed by 3 main cast members! Also, I’m on the 3rd book!
