  • I spent countless hours of my childhood playing and thinking about Poptropica, so I decided to go back and replay all my favorite islands. I have so many fond memories with this game, and I'm happy to say that classic Poptropica still holds up today. Fun fact: all of my flashpoint save data got deleted somehow, so this video is the only remaining proof that I spent almost 25 hours replaying this game.

    This was one of the best games to THIS DAY. I really hope that the old islands come back eventually

      I hope too but the creators have basically abandoned the game now

    Woke up this morning, 24 years old, memories of poptropica filled my mind whilst making my morning coffee.
    The nostalgia was palpable, knew I had to watch some vids to bring it all back

    I played soooooo much Poptropica growing up! I actually do still remember my original login info and it’s fun to check back in every once in a while. :)

    I really appreciate people doing videos appreciating childhood games like this.
    For me it was definitely Wizard101 and Adventure Quest Worlds that I spent a huge amount of time on and farmed like crazy.
    Wizard City Unicorn Way were the streets I grew up on 😔

    Omg poptropica is THE most nostalgic game for me, I have so many good memories with it, and I still listen to the amazing music from the game a lot. I wish i could get more back into it but unfortunately the Steam version is missing a lot of islands and the versus on Flashpoint has more features but can also be a pain to set up. It’s such a great game tho

    My favorite islands were the lunar colony where you could change eye color, the one where you had to shrink down and fight off literal viruses, and the one that I think was like three parts that was basically a comic-con knockoff that had the same card game play mechanic across them. Loved this video wish I could go back to simpler times of playing this after school in 2015

    My sister and I used to play this game sometimes back a while ago. I haven't touched the game in a while but just hearing the main theme is making me nostalgic.

      And I wish they could bring back the old Poptropica island because when I played it when I was younger I found the old Island was so much fun but since they removed a lot of the old island in Poptropica the game is pretty much ded

    i loved nabooti island, by far my favourite as a kid. i felt so proud of myself when i beat it as a kid, especially because it was one of the few islands where i didn’t look at a walk through at all. that puzzle with the jewels had me stumped for a while the first time i played it but every subsequent time i flew through the whole island. my favourite part was always the egyptian temple, the puzzles in that area and the platforming once it starts filling with sand

    Tell me what you think, agree or disagree?
    Making this list was quite bittersweet, and I wished the game could have continued with the quality content they made prior 2011 or 2014, but alas, all things must come to end. At least I have Flashpoint.

      ​@@NintendoHero Thanks, and out of curiosity, what's your favorite island? Mine is Mystery Train, such a masterpiece, similar to Time Tangled but improved in every aspect.

    I was manly a Club Penguin kid and then I played Roblox, but for brief moment in time I play Poptropica. I mostly remember the Prison one, the winter survival one, and the Wimpy Kid one.

    This was the most diverse and unique 2D game i've played in my entire life, it's insane that Poptropica came out so long ago.

  • @Jellyman1129

    I love Poptropica! My Top 5 favorite islands are:
    5: Atlantis
    This island starts off fairly normal, but gets weirder and weirder the farther you progress. I love its atmosphere.
    4: Ghost Story
    The ghost hunting equipment is really cool and fun to use. The story is bittersweet and the mysterious nature of the town is delightfully creepy!
    3: Escape From Pelican Rock
    Devising new ways to trick the guards and execute your escape plan is really fun! Definitely the last good island the game had before going downhill.
    2: Survival
    This five-part island is incredibly fun and unpredictable! I never knew what was going to happen next. It’s a roller coaster ride from start to finish!
    1: Virus Hunter
    This is a fairly recent island (releasing before Escape From Pelican Rock) and to my knowledge, it was the first island to include music and sound effects. Going inside the body was something I was initially nervous about because I was afraid it would be too gory or graphic, but I was in 5th grade at the time, so I didn’t realize the island was made to fit the game’s age rating. There’s no way the developers could actually add photorealistic organs and stuff. I played it as soon as it released and it was a blast! Some of the bosses are really hard and you need to use the environment to your advantage. Music in the game was unheard of at the time, and the music they made for the environments of the island were mysterious and suspenseful. It really put me on edge, but in a fun way. The virus designs are INCREDIBLE and I drew them all the time when I was in school. I consider it the best Poptropica island ever made!
    I really hope Poptropica can return to its former glory because it’s one of my favorite childhood games and there’s a lot of genuine creativity put into it.

    You should have done that tier list. It would have been great to recognize all the maps that I played as a child, since you couldn't cover them all.

    The way to play Poptropica way back then was to not look up tutorials', Unless you were completely stuck. I don't think I even watched CZcams back then at that age.
