- Poptropica is one of my favorite flash games of all time. I spent way too much of my childhood playing through many of the original island, so obviously, I've got to speedrun it. However, it turns out that this speedrun might be a bit stranger than you think

My channel generally focuses on a more casual side of speedruns. With these videos I want to show off cool speedruns, explain how they work, and entertain. Hopefully you enjoy the content and maybe even take up speedrunning yourself, because it is truly a lot of fun!

I will never forget the absolute terror I felt when I heard that old lady speak behind me on Ghost Story island. As an 8 year old, I was not prepared to be jump-scared with that voice acting. I didn’t even know voice acting was possible in Poptropica, and, at first, I thought that the voice had come from inside the room I was playing in. Freaky stuff! But yeah, Poptropica was my childhood. It was the game that made me love video games.
WAIT WHAT!!!
@@anthonyortiz350 Yep. Play the island again if you can. It's a good one.
That single moment from Ghost Story was actually one of the best jump scares I have ever come across
HUH?
The real thing that made it scary wasn't that you weren't expecting voice acting. That island was made in the original Poptropica engine where they didn't have sound for almost anything. I think Ghost Story was one of the first islands to actually use a few audio files. So you're playing this completely silent game, and on the off chance that your sound is on, you suddenly get this voice out of absolutely nowhere. Pretty brilliant.
I remember watching ThinkNoodles’ tutorials when playing this game many years back…
how nostalgic
I watched him too!!! wonder what he's up to nowadays
@@dipitous9647 makes fnaf, roblox type stuff
That guy was my go to whenever I got stuck, and no matter what map I did I always got stuck 💀
Wow, this comment just brought back soo many memories!
Still subbed to him, such a great youtuber
I remember playing the crap out of this game and gathering a bunch of cool cosmetics as I went to the point where whenever I went into a community area suddenly a bunch of people would start to look like me. Basically the peak of my life.
for REALL
That customize button was the best feature

Wait really??
Fun fact: poptropica was made by Jeff Kinney, the guy who wrote the diary of a wimpy kid novels
He was a blessing to our childhood. God am I glad to be alive in this world
seriously?
i guess that explains the mild similarity in art style
@@glasses6524 there was even a diary of a wimpy kid island
@@richardaviles353 oh yeah true
but then again there was also a big nate island, a peanuts island, and maybe something else that i don’t remember
did jeff make those as well?
@@glasses6524 You might be thinking of the Timmy Failure Island. But to answer your question, Jeff only made Poptropica and the Wimpy Kid books. He got permission to use the characters from Big Nate, Peanuts and Timmy Failure from their owners/respective owners.
Poptropica was my favorite game growing up. It made me so sad when flash died and all the old islands were shut down.
THIS! It was so much of my childhood!!!
hey fun fact there's a development team working to make the game playable without flash, and there's already a handful of islands back! Play the app version though, not the web version
@@lemonberry_soda DUDE, AWESOME!
Also, if you don't wanna play on mobile (I don't like how they shifted their focus to mobile) or can't wait for them to port every original island to Haxe, there's a curation in the Flashpoint archive that contains all the original islands made up until like Back Lot and Night Watch. (The first "beta" islands like Monster Carnival and Virus Hunter aren't there unfortunately.)
i know right! i’ve been searching for so long for a way to bring it back or access the old islands plus no new islands are coming out for the new poptropica.
If you ever do more Poptropica speedruns make sure to press S whenever someone is speaking because when you do, it skips that bubble

Oh wow. 😂 The kiddo in me is feeling slightly furious I didn't know that.
Hell naw I'm here for the story
YOU COULD DO THAT THE WHOLE TIME
@@repentoryouwilllikewiseper8741 among us
One time in elementary school I managed to complete the entirety of time turner island in one computer lab session and my peers thought I was a god. So basically I'm a speedrun prodigy.
Poptropigod
Time TANGLED Island
@@blessingneat1up Oh fuck, I've disgraced myself 😔 Forgive me
No problem
time turner? more like timmy turner!! im so funny!!!
Poptropica was such a good game. It broke me when i found out all the old maps were removed. 😭
Check out Flashpoint, some madlad got the entire alpha build working in there so you can play every island made up until like Back Lot
@@Nat_the_Chicken a god among men
@@infinity_0016 Truly. That person and everyone else working on the Flashpoint project, it's really incredible.
wait really 👋😰 when did this happen is there any way to circumvent, watching this made me wanna replay it
@@J242D This happen when adobe flash player died on december 31 2020, which most of the poprtopica islands ran on. I believe there are fans who recreated the old worlds, and that they have a site somewhere on the internet (not sure where), but that's only if you trust it tho. (not saying its dangerous or anything, but I just don't trust unofficial sources.) I heard that poprtopica plans to bring the worlds back soon, but that hasn't happened in almost 2 years now.
I really miss playing these types of games I actually forget all about it, So much memories playing it back in childhood,
How do you have no name?
Same bro I remember paying this when I was 8. So many memories
too bad we lost most of them with the death of flash. All those achievements gone...
@@TonyskalYT invisable letters
Repent to Jesus Christ!!
“Yet you, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.”

I would definitely watch more Poptropica speedruns!
There are so many awesome islands!
the underwater one would be cool
@built different th-cam.com/video/JwncAQurlqk/w-d-xo.html
me too!!
Fax superhero island was my fave
Ya
I remember playing this when there was only the first world available. I memorized the way to get the golden egg without a glowstick. I was a speedrunning prodigy
Literally any island speed run would be awesome, my favorites were always mythology island, the time travel island, and reality tv island
Reality tv island was the best 😭😭💀 I would just replay it over and over
24 Carrot was the first island I ever beat as a kid and I felt so proud of myself, I'd love to see a speedrun of that island!
Same. After that I usually cheated.
@@wildfeather4865 Thinknoodles? 😄
An absolute classic!
I remember playing when there were only 3 islands. I have to say that the one where you time travel and the cryptids one were my favorite. I stopped playing around the time that one of the space ones came out. Maybe there was one with hercules is the last one i beat.
Mine was Early Poptropica!
Skullduggery is really speedrun unfriendly, so it would be fun to see Speezy suffer
I think he’s been through enough pain lol
Oh yeah he should do that
Bro that was my favorite island *0*
There are three types of poptropica islands, easy and short, easy but ridiculously long, and so hard it'll take you an hour.
I remember me and my sister's first skullduggy play through took a week
This guy is literally the definition of putting your childhood skills to use
Watching the goofy jump expressions just made my day. Man, this was a good game series back then
|:)
:D
Oh my God, I think about this game frequently. I had so much fun with this one. Learned what a Chupacabra is with the urban legend area and the superhero place was just my vibing area, flying around havin fun with superpowers... Man... Good times.
That area was so cool. Do u remember fighting the super villains ? I never could get past the subway villain and was stuck on there :/ so I forgot my username / password sadly
I think my fav was skulldugery Island, i just had so much fun learning where the best places to like trade were
@@smilecentaur and just make so much profit, buying cheap x at y and selling it for so much more at z until you could afford the big red ship 😢 so much nostalgia
It was so hard fighting the flying villain and the one in the sewer or bathroom; can’t remember lol
@@smilecentaur 😂 oh I just went around the island where you buy ships and killed sea monsters for loot. Man memories
There goes Speezy again. Hitting us right in the nostalgia
I said out loud no way when I saw this vid 😂
Same lol. This game was like the beginning and the end of the world for my 8 year old self
THE NOSTALGIA
He need to do all wii sports speed run that would be funny😂
I used to play this when I was 6 then moved to game freak then to cool math games
I remember the Greek mythology island, by far my favorite
The nostalgia is overwhelming
Makes me want to play again, I mean now that I’m old enough to understand how to play, back then I ran around like a lost ant aimlessly doing close to nothing 😂😂😂
All the old maps are gone now, tho. When flash player went down, Potropica lost pretty much all its apps. 😭
@@anonymouslyforgotten5592 theyre gonna hopefully come back though
SAME lmao, i only knew how to do one or two levels and i would just replay them. i have no idea how i didn’t get bored lol
I remember saying "WHERE ARE THEIR NECKS?!" everytime seeing a character.
Yeah, that one too
How does this video exist in 2021?
He's probably playing on Flashpoint Infinity. Go look it up, you can play a lot of the original islands there.
I remember playing Poptropica back in Elementary school almost everyday whenever I had free time. Man, I kinda wish I was child again…
Holy shit I ain't seen this game in forever
fr bruh
for realll this is the first time I’ve seen this game being mentioned in over 6 years
@@anthonyr622 yea
I loved Poptropica as a kid. Mythology was one of my favorite islands!
Mine too!
I'm still stuck on it lol
Same
Mines mystery train because I somehow figured it out on my own with no assistance
Played Poptropica in computer class over a decade ago. Had no idea the game could be beat. Lots of lazy afternoons playing this game waiting for the school day to be over. What a nostalgia trip!
Dang, now I'm feeling nostalgic.
My favorite island was the cryptid one. Especially since I think it might have been one of the only ones I ever finished.
yooo I remember this game. Loved how unique some of the islands were, especially when you had to go from one island to another to beat one it blew my mind
I think Counterfeit was the only island that did that. But yeah, it was a pretty mind-blowing trick.
i also liked when islands had little easter eggs showing the worlds were connected
@@pinkkam Oh yeah like when you went to islands with TVs they would usually put Balloon Boy on the TV
@@Nat_the_Chicken didnt the cowboy one need that too?
@@moroam Nope I don't think so, you just had to ride around to the different towns a lot on your horse
Man, This is memorable. Last time I checked you couldn't play the old games though, they were under rennovation or something
Edit: About a Half Dozen of the original game have returned and as far as I can tell nothing’s changed.
I've seen reddit posts finding ways around this. So, you know, if you look, there's options, I guess.
you can play it now
@@AJHaydenTV Do you happen to have links? asking for a school project
@@leeeeeeeeeeeeeviathan the easiest way i have found to play the full game is flashpoint, a flash game saving thing. Though the way to install is a bit manual but mostly easy. It's a bit buggy and some islands don't work but you can play the fist three 'seasons' of islands
I think the"renovation" is converting them from flash to whatever people are using instead (HTML5?)
Dude, I used to play the crap out of this game during the shutdown. I beat all of the islands now. This game had such unique stories and art. It was awesome.
EazySpeezy “Probably my favorite flash games of all time” literally everything
I would love to see a harder island speedrun. Skullduggery would be cool, steamworks, and AstroKnights are Awesome. Time Tangled and Nabooti might be shorter and more fun to learn and run.
Wow, I totally forgot about AstroKnights but that one was insanely good. Time to go make a new account.
Astro Knights was one of the first really big/long ones (along with maybe Nabooti). I remember when I started playing there were nine islands and Astro Knights was the newest one. I was in fourth grade and I saw someone inside the volcano and it was so cool that I just HAD to figure out how to play it. I don't think I actually beat that island until years later...
The last island I played was I believe Zomberry before other things got in the way. I lowkey also loved watching the fashion shows and fanmade music videos people put on TH-cam in Poptropica's peak.
I’d love to see a speed run of Escape From Pelican Rock or Mythology Island if you are able to play those!
those were my favorites too lmao, those and shrink ray island :D
Ok but can somebody tell me how tf you get Hercules to help you? I literally found the Hydra myself, faced it off and manages to get past it, but you can't get the scale unless Hercules is helping you I guess? And no matter what I said to him or offered him, he just didn't want to help me.
@@applebee28 once you defeat the hydra just go near it and click on it to get the scale. For hercules to help you... You have to answer Aphrodite's quiz to get her mirror.
I used to play mythology and spy island so much!
@@applebee28 Yeah you have to get the five sacred items on your own, Hercules only helps you after that when [REDACTED] and you have to [REDACTED]
SPEEDRUN SKULLDUGGERY ISLAND! That islands whole trading and ship gimmick was super fun. Fighting sea monsters and gathering their loot, blasting tiny ships over and over.
Man this game was so good.
Used to play this game all the time as a kid at the computer lab. Best part? It was online, you could see other people in the common spaces, talk, show off cosmetics, etc. It felt so incredible to be connected to everyone like that
This dude is speedrunning my childhood game library
Why did I get targeted for the naughty scam bots lmao
@@PuddlesTheMolten they are very beatable errr i mean beautiful check them out =).....
Please do more Poptropica speedruns! I love it so much, it's so nostalgic
Oh gosh i loved this game! Seeing you speedrun it makes me wanna play it all over again!
You should try to speed run the halo games
I don’t know how it would work, but I’d like to see a speedrun of the reality tv island if it still exists
oh god that was one of my favorites but it was so tense
Are you trying to put him in RNG hell? It's either that or master every minigame lol
that island requires dire luck ;-;
Superhero island was the best
Ah, this brings back memories. Playing this in your school's computer lab, racing racing against your friends to see who could complete an island first. Those were the days.
Oh my lord, Counterfeit Island has as great of a story as I remember.
The lore of the islands were always interesting
@@wellwell3544 I like to think that the early islands having no audio was part of the lore, like that's why the guards couldn't hear you unless you made enough noise to have visual sound effects on the screen
@@Nat_the_Chicken Plus none of the characters have ears. Maybe they can't hear, canonically
@@dreamofyouandi I mean, why would you need ears in a silent game? Maybe evolution removed them
I would watch every poptropica map speedrunned! Whether for a lot of videos, a charity stream, or something else, I would love to see it!
I played this game so much with my brother when we were kids, it's so nostalgic
You should speedrun more islands c:
This just unlocked a whole lot of nostalgic memories I forgot about 😳
My childhood summed up in a video, I haven’t heard of this legend in years!
@@agnez_________________7079 boy what the hell boy
I remember playing through one of these while listening to some of the Loituma songe back in the day
The second I saw this I knew I had to see it. I still play the game and I’m on the Pelican Rock island.
yo i just decided to replay some islands yesterday and am on pelican rock too
Finally the day has come. My ultimate childhood game.
This is so nostalgic lol
Hope you do more Poptropica speed runs, the nostalgia is so real
Also, please speedrun more of these islands!
Yall remember Zodge and his Poptropica walk throughs. Good times.
Wow, the nostalgia hits hard. I loved this game so much
I remember having the book and watching ThinkNoodles play this.
Brings back memories
I would love to see a summoning salt video on the world record history of poptropica speed runs.
I want to join the demand for more poptropica speedruns, that would be great
I never finished the time travel one and around 7 years later I went back and did it for nostalgia. -sincerely Uel
i love these speedruns cause nostaligia hits me like a truck
This brings back memories

Just a side note, I'm pretty sure you can skip dialogue bubbles by pressing a certain key. That being said, it's been years since I've played Poptropica so they might've removed that feature.
The memories of sneaking onto this game in school. We were meant to do something later or cool math games.
Wow, what a cool concept for a game! _Loads_ of nods to real-life art thefts in there... the French lady's tour of the catacombs of Paris @ 1:32 (location of the world's most famous stolen art work - the_'Mona Lisa')..._ many paintings shown (including Munch's _'Scream')_ have been stolen in real life. In fact, some of the "greatest" paintings hidden behind the wall @ 10:32 are part of the _biggest still-unsolved art crime_ - the Gardner Museum heist (Boston, 1990). The painting of the boat @ 10:36 is the most valuable piece stolen, a Rembrandt worth hundreds of millions of dollars _missing to this very day._ Even the ways you investigate frauds by checking signatures & working out the chemical composition of paints is correct, and there's a heap of little Easter eggs in the way various paintings are stolen & hidden (like the attic full of artworks & paintings hung in the wrong places)... just brilliant! 👌
More poptropica speed runs would make my year. I would love to see great pumpkin, big nate, zomberry and skullduggy speedruns
i strongly desire a speedrun of skullduggery or mythology island or one of the other really cool ones. do they still exist?
Are we really just gonna sit here and be okay while he speedruns our childhoods?

Day 68 of begging for a speedrun of baking and eating a cake irl
please speedrun any saw games, like the Bart one, would be AWESOME, one of the games that marked my childhood
I remember that I had the official Poptropica guide book and loved it. This game was my childhood.
This and club penguin will forever hold a place in my heart
This game taught me how to make a good gaming username as a kid, take an adjective and slap a noun in front of it
Please do more of these, really nostalgic and entertaining. Maybe the Time Machine Island
Time Machine Island is classic I love that one
0:50 yeah I remember the island where you crash land and get hunted down by a crazy guy in the woods
He started the video, named it as one of his favorite flash games, then played COUNTERFEIT?! That's one of the best ones! We just started and I'm already going nuts
Yoooo this gives me so much nostalgia. I remember playing these when I was younger, but i always had to search up a walkthrough. Personally monster carnival, night watch, mystery train, virus hunters, and cryptids were my favorite!
I would love to see you speed Run more islands, maybe the space one or any to be honest
bro seeing this video on my recommended put a smile on my face, tbt to teacher handing out lap tops and all of us playing poptropica in class
every now and than i look up poptropica just to feel something, this game is so nostalgic 😭💕
"I have no idea to how he even saw me"
Flashback to literally 5 seconds before as you breath down the guys neck while following him 😂😂
Very nostalgic. I’d love to see more Poptropica speedruns.
I’m glad I grew up with poptropica, but damn I miss it so much
YEAH DUDE SPEEDRUN MORE POPTROPICA. THE NOSTALGIA HITS SO HARD
I used to check on this game once a year or so and see if I still knew my sign in and if anything major happened and yeah it's pretty different (23 y/o) the charm this game had still holds up
Please, more Poptropica my fellow Speezy.
The fact I watched this on our smart tv (not logged in)then it appeared here on my phone so how amazing these are to watch
A real hood classic right here, it was either this or Club Penguin
Accidently Clicked on this as i was scrolling and watched the whole thing, great video !
this is the game that caused me to be here, on youtube, on the internet at all. if it wasn’t for this game, my life would be so much different, i’d miss out on online relationships that mean the world to me now. i owe a lot to poptropica, i’m glad you played it here!
i wanna watch him do all the islands, the nostalgia hits so hard with this
This game is so nostalgic for me, some of my oldest drawings were Poptropica characters
Definitely enjoyed this trip down childhood lane, I'd love to see other islands.
a throwback to the past, i miss old poptropica
poptropica is such a jam, the weirdest thing for me, it'll always remind me of elvis costello, i used to come home from school and hop on the computer, and id load up my elvis costello playlist on grooveshark and play poptropica until dinner, good times lol
I can still remember getting the DS game of Popyropica and never getting to even go through the main story because it just didn’t have something in a fountain you needed to get to continue.
I remember feeling a sense of accomplishment completing a map growing up
This game used to be 70% of the conversations during recess in the last years of Elementary School, lol. "Oh you beat that one? How? Oh you've gotta talk to that guy? Oh okay! Well I beat this one first, here's my advice..."
The space one and the fantasy ones were my favorite islands
Poptropica taught me the basics of mercantilism, and by extension math. Specifically the old Skullduggery Island. I spent minutes figuring out how trade worked and how to buy low and sell high, concluding in a perfect clockwise route.
