New in the Poptropica Store

New in the Poptropica Store: the Midnight Red Ninja costume!


This new ninja costume is inspired by the upcoming Red Dragon Island. The Midnight Red Ninja outfit is available exclusively to Poptropica Members.

All Poptropicans can also pick up two classic Japanese-inspired costumes: the original Midnight Ninja, and the Samurai.

Cool, huh?

You talk the talk...

Have you had a chance to check out the sneak preview of Red Dragon Island? Lots of Poptropicans have already battled their way to Yokozuna status. Whether or not you've joined their status, you may have noticed something interesting about your opponents: they're a mouthy bunch.
Yes, your Sumo opponents talk a lot of trash before the matches. Let them talk the talk -- but if you can walk the walk, then you'll be a Yokozuna in no time!

Yoko-WHO-na?

If you've tried the sneak preview of Red Dragon Island, then you've probably had a chance to see the prizes that are up for grabs as you progress through the Sumo tournament. All players can move up one rank, and earn a special outfit and facepaint set for becoming a Maegashira.

There are higher ranks to earn, and better prizes to win! Those hardy Poptropica Members who earn promotion to the highest rank of Yokozuna will get this special prize:
Besides the fancy duds, only those who have earned the rank of Yokozuna will get the special "Sumo stomp" ability.

So what are you waiting for? If you're a Members and haven't become a champion yet, now's your time! And if you're not yet a Member, there's still time to become one, and get these exclusive goodies before the Early Access launch of Red Dragon Island.

If you've played through Wimpy Wonderland already, then you know that a key puzzle is figuring out how to get Greg to stop playing Twisted Wizard. But if you haven't played Wimpy Wonderland yet, then there's a surprise in store: you'll have to beat Twisted Wizard for him! That's right, now you can play Twisted Wizard in Wimpy Wonderland.

Don't fret if you've already completed the Island. You can play Twisted Wizard at any time by visting the "games" tab in your inventory.
