There’s less than 2 days left until the release of the newest mini game! We’re mid sugar rush and counting down the minutes until Thursday! In the meantime, it’s only fitting that we share another glimpse into the Candy Crazed cast! 👀

 

You’ve already met Gumdrop Pup and Gummy, of course.

 

 

 

Now, are you ready to meet the main characters of Candy Crazed mini quest?!

Presenting…

 

 

 

… Hansel and Gretel! 

 

Congratulations to everyone that guessed Hansel and Gretel as the fairytale inspiration behind the Candy Crazed mini quest!

 

Do you recognize these rascals? If you’re not familiar with the fairytale, here’s a little backstory. It’s a whimsical story about two desserted siblings, Hansel and Gretel, who are captured by an ill-intentioned, cannibalistic witch. Hansel and Gretel are trapped inside the witch’s gingerbread house. They’re no match against their surroundings and are unable to resist the temptations of a delicious, candy palace  – exactly what the witch was hoping for. Can you really blame them though? You probably nougat fairytale, but I won’t spoil the ending if you don’t know what comes next!

 

Don’t forget that the Candy Crazed mini quest will be released this Thursday, May 27^th!! Candy Crazed will be available to all players and can be repeated as many times as you like to earn extra credits! 

 

What twists on the classic fairytale do you think Hansel and Gretel will encounter in Poptropica? Let us know in the comments below! 👇

As we wait for the old islands to be ported over, we may find ourselves viewing fan art, fan videos, or island walkthroughs of Poptropica to occupy our minds.

 

We all love what Poptropica has to offer. The designs, the stories, the music… It’s easy to find the first 2 in fan art, fan videos, and island walkthroughs, but what about the music?

 

 

Each Poptropica island has its own soundtracks, and I used to revisit Mystery of the Map, Monkey Wrench, and other islands again and again just to hear those sweet sounds! Most of the islands of Poptropica are off of the map until further notice now, but If you’re like me, and you’ve been looking for that music to enjoy again, then look no further. HERE is the link to Jeff Heim’s entire library of Poptropica compositions!

Although this library doesn’t have 100% of all the songs Poptropica ever had, I think it comes pretty close. Nevertheless, I hope this music brightens your mind and spirit as it did for me. In these troubled times, I think we all could use it!

THIS IS NOT A DRILL! I REPEAT - THIS. IS. NOT. A. DRILL.

OG Poptropican and Youtube extraordinaire, Thinknoodles, recently released a walkthrough of the newest addition to Poptropica -- Fairytale Island!!  Please tell us we're not the only ones that are starstruck! 🤩

This video is definitely a sight for sore eyes! Before watching, please prepare yourself for the flood of nostalgia that's coming your way. Seriously, don't say we didn't warn you. Unquestionably, Thinknoodles' walkthrough pulled on our heartstrings with his return to the game, the revival of his original video intro, and affectionate sentiments for both Fairytale Island and Poptropica as a whole. 

Thank you so much, Thinknoodles!! It's been incredible to see your progression as a Youtuber and gamer over the years -- and to think the best is still yet to come! 🥺💙

 

Hello all around!! Hopefully everyone had a wonderful weekend!

 

It’s Monday, and we all know what that means in Poptropica… it’s time for another store update! This week’s store features a new outfit, the Sunset Tee!  Serve up some summer vibes with the new outfit, it’s a perfect look for skateboarding by the beach or a casual blimp ride with Amelia!

 

 

Also, the Adventure Outfitters store has restocked some other popular costumes that you might’ve seen before! Do you remember the last time you’ve seen these restocked items?

 

 

 

 

ALSO! Prom is in the air! Dress to impress with the Prom Princess and Prom Party outfits. You’ll definitely be giving Cinderella a run for her money with these threads.

 

 

Don't forget to stop by to see the store’s full selection!!

Hopefully you’ve been able to play through the Lost Cubs Mini Quest! Alongside the newly released Mini Quest, the Creators’ Team is thrilled to share YET ANOTHER SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!! Drum roll pleaseeee!

 

We’re challenging all Poptropicans to participate in a new Fairytale Fanfic Challenge!

The Fairytale Fanfic Challenge gives you the opportunity to write your own original ending for Fairytale Island!! You have free reign to decide the characters’ destinies and resolve any unanswered questions, however you see fit. You’re more than welcome to create an elaborate ending that ties up any loose ends or write a simple, short conclusion to the Island! As a reward, winners chosen from the submission pool will receive FREE CREDITS and will be featured on the Creators' Blog!!

We’ve seen all of your comments and questions about Fairytale Island’s cliffhanger. We know the Island’s ending leaves a lot of questions unanswered.

 

Where did Rumpelstiltskin disappear to? Will he ever return? 

What does the prince’s fate hold? Will he have to get a job?!

What comes of the new happy endings for Red, Snow, and Cinder?

What friendship blossoms between Little Red Riding Hood and the Seven Dwarves?

Does Snow White open her veterinary practice?

Do the Huntsman and Cinderella fall in love? Hopefully the Huntsman’s left behind his homicidal hijinx…

And what did Rumplestilskin do with the real king?

 

The Fairytale Fanfic Challenge submission window begins today and ends next Friday, May 21^st at 8pm PST! To enter, submit your fanfic writing at poptropica.com/submissions/ as text or as a file attachment, and your entry will be entered into the challenge pool!
