About Poptropica

Poptropica is an adventure world for younger players: you make a character, travel between themed islands, and solve each one's quest through exploration, conversation and puzzles. Several storylines were written by Jeff Kinney, the author of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, who co-created the game.

It's point-and-click adventure design done for children — no combat, no failure state, and puzzles that reward paying attention to what people tell you. Beyond the quests there's a clubhouse to decorate, pets to adopt and outfits to collect.

  • If you're stuck, revisit an earlier area with your current inventory.
  • Islands can be played in any order, so switch if one has you stumped.
