The lights, the cameras, the action! The newest island from Poptropica is called Back Lot Island and it looks like it’s going to be an exciting romp through Hollywood! Maybe. Why the doubt? Well, the image above was posted with the following on the Creator’s Blog: “What’s the next Island going to be?” That’s the question we hear over …

The…ahem…winner of our last poll — Which Poptropica Island is Your Least Favorite — was Early Poptropica. Congratulations! Oh, well, maybe not congratulations, but you know what I mean. Anyway, there seems to be a general consensus that Early Poptropica could have been better. The results aren’t too surprising. It came out a long time ago, back when the …
Read More »Coffee Shop Island!
Poptropica has announced their next island and it’s…Coffee Shop Island! Thrill to a world of baristas and beans, looking for something cheap to buy so you can use the bathroom! Just kidding. They haven’t announced a Coffee Shop Island. But they did post a teaser picture of a coffee shop possibly from an upcoming island? (Those of you who …
Read More »Poll: Least Favorite Island?
No one likes to be negative, but with the recent release of Poptropica’s 33rd island, I thought it would be worth finding out: which Poptropica island is your least favorite? So many of the islands are great, but I’m sure there’s one that didn’t do it for you. Maybe it was too difficult or too boring or it just wasn’t …

There’s a new costume in the store and it’s called: Dr. Hare’s Lair – Big Carrot! It’s in honor of the fact that Poptropica’s LEGO set got 2,500 of the 10,000 votes they need to get their Dr. Hare LEGO set officially made. So, still quite a few votes shy, but they’re getting closer. And we get a giant …
Read More »Night Watch Island: Costume Round-up
One of the coolest parts of Night Watch Island is the costume store called Carnival Costumes. In it, you can find pieces for all kinds of awesome outfits. I’ve put together a visual reference for the costumes (see below). These are what’s available AFTER you finish the island. Like many islands, there are costumes that are only available before you …

A quick note to let everyone know — if you didn’t already — that Night Watch Island is now LIVE for members! Another surprise island launch without a countdown, similar to what they did with Wimpy Boardwalk. Oh well.

Read More »More Teaser Images of Night Watch Island
New images from the Creator’s Blog of Night Watch Island. The one above shows an eclectic group of Mall shoppers standing in line for…something. Based on the “Buy it Now!” signs in the background, it looks like some kind of electronic device. Looks like Poptropica might be poking fun at the notorious lines that form outside Apple stores when they …

Here are the characters you guys came up with for our own fan-created Movie Island! Of course, they’re all awesome. Great job, everyone. That’s it for our Design Our Own Island project. I can’t believe how cool it turned out. Now if only the creators of Poptropica were making a movie-themed island. Hm… Seymour the Stuntman, the Main Villain! Four …
Read More »The Final Act of Movie Island!
You’ve all voted and the winning plot of Movie Island is…the Plot of Seymour the Stuntman! Here’s a recap: As soon as you leave the blimp, you get stopped by a talent scout, who will be a helper for the rest of the island, just like the journalist for the New York Times on Mystery Train Island. He says that …

Valentine’s Day is tomorrow and the Creator’s of Poptropica wanted to make sure everyone was in the proper spirit. If you go to the Store they’re promoting the Love Potion as well as the Big Hearted costume. The heart you choose can be purple or orange, as well as the more traditional red. If you don’t already have them, go …

The image above was posted to the Creator’s blog as a hint at an upcoming island. This would be an incredible coincidence, but…are they making Movie Island?! How strange and awesome would it be if the winner of our Design Our Own Island theme was the same as the next island from the Poptropica creators? We started our project …
Read More »Time Travel in Night Watch Island?
It was pointed out to me in a previous post comment that the car in the teaser image from Night Watch Island is, in fact, a DeLorean, a reference to the sports car time-machine from the Back to the Future movies. The Twin Palms Mall is another reference. In the first Back to the Future movie, Marty McFly meets Doc …
