Some of my favorite memories from Poptropica include: -The unironically well executed jumpscare on Cryptid Island (YOU KNOW THE ONE) -Finally beating the Pirate Island (it was a real grind, but it felt rewarding to finally complete it) -Beating the supervillains on Superhero Island -Completing every island in the game and eagerly awaiting for the new one to be revealed. -Just plain exploring the first couple islands and solving their puzzles in what turned out to be a relaxing adventure that got me hooked near instantly. Poptropica was, and still is, a true gem of internet gaming. Even if the servers get taken down, I hope that some sort of fan-archive can be made like with other defunct MMOs. Or, even better, that some sort of Poptropica 2.0 can be made for a new generation. This game meant so much to a lot of people and it deserves to be preserved and remembered.

EDIT: I looked it up, they were called “common rooms”, users could “chat” using pre-written questions and answers, “battle” by playing competitive mini games, and add eachother as friends. :0 Poptropica wasn’t strictly single player!!!! There was always one building per island that was online and you could chat with people. I can’t remember if you could type whatever you wanted or if it was a set list of phrases. I think you could also play mini games with other players in there?? It’s so foggy, I haven’t done that since like 2008z

[@shoyuramenoff]

You could say I'm a veteran. My favourite island back in the day was either Steamworks, Spy, or Nabooti Island. I was there when only Early Poptropica, Shark Tooth, and Time Tangled Island were out. I was finishing all the islands as they came out and saw it grow and played a lot of the islands that are membership only for free. 12 years after I started, I still haven't found a game like it to fill the void in my 21 year old self's heart, now that they aren't releasing new islands anymore. Edit: Apparently, they are coming out with a new one. I KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO DO SOON!

Man, I just looked into it for the first time in years. I figured after all this time, there'd be new islands I've never seen before. But instead, a lot of the best islands are gone. -Skulldiggery, the pirate island (also one of the longest and hardest islands to beat, and also super fun, where you can literally become in debt to bank loans) -Astro Knights, the other king of hard mode islands that mixed sci-fi with medieval fantasy. -Poptropolis, the Olympic Games island that sank and then CAME BACK -Counterfeit Island, the Art Heist island -Steamworks, the Steampunk Island -Cryptids Island where you hunt bigfoot -Mystery Train, the historical fiction whodunnit island -Ghost Story, the uh... the ghost story island -Superpower, the Comic Book Island -Red Dragon, the Magic Treehouse/Japan island -Reality TV, the Survivor Island There were just so many great ones, and now the only ones left that I really remember being amazing are Mythology, Prison Break, and to a lesser extent, 24 Carrot, and the Comicon Island.

Oh man. I remember Poptropica. I remember the name they gave my character was Maroon Rider. I assumed at the time that maroon was a shade of orange. Years later, when I started high school, I learned that maroon was, in fact, a dark shade of red. That was because maroon was the school color.

[@wack-a-dude6702]

I remember there was a spooky ghost island with a part where you can look through a telescope to see a place you passed through from a different angle (blew my 7 year old mind). Well, I always played with the volume on max and after about 10 seconds of looking through the telescope there is actual audio of a lady behind you. This felt like playing a VR game and feeling the character's breath on your neck. Needless to say I jumped out of my chair and looked behind myself so fast that I hurt myself.

[@profporkchops6970]

Ok bois time for the insider scoop on Poptropica right now. I have been a part of the speedrunning community for this game, so It was very important for me to get information on whats happening and why so here we go. First off, It is being remade by hand in new code, so It will survive past flash (Yay!) Secondly, the reason all the old islands got removed was because they were made using an older form of code which new developers did not know how to use, so they got rid of them for security sakes and are working on remaking them. Now for anybody that DOES want to play the older islands you can click this link server.idkonpop.com/pop/base.php?short=oldIslandMap which will allow you to play ANY of the old islands even seasonal ones. If y'all have any questions just comment for an answer, and like so other can see this

[@profporkchops6970]

And honestly 24 carrot is the best island, Just got revived with an added item that literally saves a full minute

[@santix5704]

[@izzrainy7410]

you used to only be able to randomise your whole name - you couldn't choose each part, and you could go back. you also couldn't change it after. it's also really sad that the old islands are gone, there were some really good ones ): and there used to be tons of stuff gated behind membership, so I'm glad they undid that.

Astro Knights Island was, and still is my favorite island. Reasons: 1. Had customizable spaceships (If I remember correctly it impacts the gameplay) 2. You got to hurl the invincible space sharks into a black hole. 3. The lore of the island is well established, you are introduced to the villain early on, but never actually meet him till the very end. Also he has a cult which you sneak into. 4. You have a companion through the whole island. I won't say who, but having them by your side to help you solve puzzles, and even controlling them in the final boss is nice.

I literally played when there was only one island and as a kid I thought it was odd that you had to click on the island (back then you started in the air balloon and had to click on a island to go to it). There was no store and once you complete the island all you received was just a medallion. Now you can customize based on how someone else looks, there is a store, coins, a home island, and a bunch of island have been taken away. I still have items from islands that are not there anymore.
