One day until the public launch of Great Pumpkin Island!

This is your friendly reminder: Great Pumpkin Island will be open to all beginning tomorrow, October 14. Keep checking in right here — we’ll let you know as soon as it’s up!

And…..

Speaking of great pumpkins

Great Pumpkin Island will be open to everybody this Thursday. In the meantime, why not get started designing your own jack-o’-lantern for Halloween?

Our friends at FamilyEducation.com have an interactive jack-o’-lantern creator that lets you design and print your original pumpkin portraits. There are hundreds of possible combinations! Just design, print, and then carve your masterpiece.

(Remember, always ask a parent to help with the carving!)

Sound the alarm!

Now I should get myself a chicken alarm! LOL! It would probably make a nice decoration to my room (NOT)!

Halloween is coming!

With Great Pumpkin Island now available for Poptropica Members (and coming for everybody on October 14), Halloween is on a lot of people’s minds. Well, why not visit the Poptropica Store to put a Halloween costume on your Poptropican, too? This one’s my favorite:

Since “Great Pumpkin” is already taken, we’ll call this one a very good pumpkin.

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

What’s your favorite Halloween costume for your Poptropican to wear?

Well to everybody that doesnt have a membership can now play it soon!

Linus may wait all night for the Great Pumpkin, but we didn’t have to wait long for the first 10 Poptropicans to complete Great Pumpkin Island. Congratulations to the first 10 finishers!

1. Hyper Shark

2. Fierce Moon

3. Cool Typhoon

A Great Pumpkin Island treat for Poptropica Members

Not only do Poptropica Members have Early Access to Great Pumpkin Island — they’ll also get an exclusive follower card if they log on during the Early Access period.

That’s right, Snoopy’s pal Woodstock can come along on your adventure! If you’re not a Member already, you can become a Memberand get the Woodstock follower card, as well as Early Access to Great Pumpkin Island.

I think we made Charlie Brown’s day a little brighter.

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

Yup, thats right us members can already play! Well I hope everybody has fun playing this island!

Here’s your first look at the Great Pumpkin Island map:

Good things do come in small packages, after all.

What’s that? There are lots of mini-games and adventures on Great Pumpkin Island that don’t appear on the map? Good grief!

The beagle has landed

Just when you thought you’d seen it all, look who’s in the pumpkin patch this week!

Those pumpkins are getting pretty large by now, which must mean that Great Pumpkin Island is almost here. As Linus could tell you, the waiting is the hardest part.

Your Friday fix

Before we head into the weekend, we wanted to make sure you saw this:

the info page for Great Pumpkin Island is up, with some cool new screenshots you haven’t seen before!

Great Pumpkin Island is coming very soon. You’ll hear the release date first right here on the official Poptropica blog!

BLACK WIDOW

And there also seems like there is going to be another new island:

Generally speaking

Great Pumpkin Island is coming very soon, but every day isn’t Halloween at Poptropica HQ. We’re working on more new Islands for you to enjoy, too!

Need proof?

My, that’s one fine looking general store. It reminds me of the lovely seaside resort towns I used to ransack on Skullduggery Island. Those were the days. Nowadays it’s all fences and gated communities.

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

So now that I’m back from my break I’ll be posting more often and now that I have the time I’m going to announce that my assintant Jezzica Juarez will also be helping out here with other stuff.

Bye. C’Yall Later – Quick Berry

Bye for now, Quick Berry.

Greg Heffley is waiting for you on the Main Street of your favorite Island with some exciting news. Visit any Poptropica Island for the scoop!

Wow, it was such a surprise, he said stay tuned to see the cover of the new book on thrusday.

This week we’re going to be sharing some neat tips and tricks to help you get a little more from Poptropica. We’ve hidden a lot of fun easter eggs in the game. You may have found some already!

Have you ever noticed how many of the background objects in Poptropica are interactive? Sometimes even more than you’d think. Take the crab that’s crawling around the first screen of Time Tangled Island.

He certainly looks mopey. But he’ll look even more mopey if you click on him.

See how he gets squished? Well, just see what happens if you keep clicking on him real fast!

Yikes! He explodes. Your Poptropican has to dodge the debris.

Don’t worry, though: he’ll come back together and be good as new in no time.

The same cannot be said for the roaches that infest Bucky’s hotel room on Reality TV Island.

Those little buggers move fast. If you can catch up with them, here’s what happens:

If you leave the room and come back inside, they’ll be ready to be squashed all over again.

Have you found any more clickable objects in Poptropica?

We know these tricks, creators.
