### 2/5 — Bring back original poprtopica

*2025-12-31*

if you wanted to make an educational game you would’ve made a seperate game. i downloaded this missing my childhood favorite game. this is trash

### 2/5 — It’s not as good as the adventure game

*2025-12-30, version 1.5.23*

Well, I enjoyed the old game because there were so many maps to explore but the developers got rid of it. Please bring it back, I miss it 😢.

### 2/5 — What happened?

*2025-12-04*

I’m confused on what happened..
“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it“ … does it mean nothing to them?
I’m in my twenties now but this game was always progressing and seemed formulated for success.
I went to redownload the old version with the rabbit and carrot? Not available. So here I am.
The Low rating is For A Reason!
Putting in these goofy voices can’t be the excuse. Reading was a part of poptropica, shouldn’t there be an option to have the characters speak or not? So I don’t have to mute the whole gameplay?
This game is Iconic! Don’t ruin it for my children. The nostalgia has been taken away. The formula was already suitable and enjoyable for all age ranges.
THIS is Not it. 
Where is the rest of the map for example, & why are they going backwards.

### 3/5 — Wow

*2025-11-03*

I went to redownload Poptropica and saw this? If they wanted to give the game new life or open it to a new audience they should’ve started with a simple up date or anything else than this now I have to go to cool math game to access my account very interesting angle

### 1/5 — Game is not good

*2025-09-07*

Do not play this game bring back the original it was way better like what even is this game now please im begging bring the original back

### 1/5 — Worst ever

*2025-08-27*

If I could give it zero stars I would.

For one you cant customize your character unless it’s randomized.

Two the islands are made to be educational when the original game was way more educational and more fun.

Three it’s completely boring and only has a few islands.

### 1/5 — Poptropic

*2025-08-02, version 1.5.23*

BRING BACK OLD POPTROPICA

### 2/5 — why did you change it..

*2025-07-22*

BRING BACK THE OLD POPTROPICA!!!! Bro it was so much better before. i get it you want to make it educational and all but it’s actually so lame and annoyyyying. Please please please change it back to normal where you can actually customize your characters freely/save outfits/socialize with other players and actually have missions GOOOD Missions and MULTIPLE Places where you had a bunch of missions and That were actually so fun and not pointless, Not trying to be mean but PLEASE just put it back to how it used to be PLEASEEEEEEEEE.

### 2/5 — This game stinks.

*2020-11-27, version 1.5.23*

You only have like 5  Poptropica wolds on this app.If you played all of them what are you supposed to do play them again?If you play them again you will know what to do and you will finish really quickly. The other thing is that because of the bad internet connection on this game randomly when I’m playing it stops me and I can’t press anything and can’t move so I have to shut my iPad down till it doesn’t work again.JUST FIX THIS GAME PLEASE 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

### 1/5 — Worst poptropica has done

*2019-11-13, version 1.5.22*

I love poptropica and I saw family and future islands on this add for the game but nooooooooo wifi oh I have wifi u liars

### 1/5 — Very bad

*2019-10-27, version 1.5.22*

### 1/5 — Bring back the old poptropica

*2026-01-20*

Redownloaded for nostalgia and it is absolutely not worth it. Please bring back the old islands and character design features. I guess it’s fine that the characters talk but it’s definitely off putting at first. Trust me guys it’s not fun anymore

### 1/5 — I want the old Poptropica Back!

*2025-12-31*

I used to LOVE Poptropica, and I recently remembered playing it all the time, so you must imagine how disappointing it was to see that it was changed to an English learning game. I get that education is important, but this cannot even compare to the older version of Poptropica. There we could change our characters and names individually, interact with other players, and there were much more quests of all kinds of levels that were way more entertaining to do. Please consider going back to the original or changing this to become more similar.

### 1/5 — JUST PLAY ON COOLMATH

*2025-12-23, version 1.5.23*

The mobile version is bad now! Just play on coolmath gam

### 1/5 — We need the old poptropica

*2025-12-13*

It is my favorite game and I miss it so much. Please consider rereleasing the old version; we could still have this one!

### 1/5 — BRING ORIGINAL BACK

*2025-12-09, version 1.5.23*

This game sucks. At least let the original be an option to download. Terrible!!!

### 1/5 — Fake Poptropica

*2025-11-20*

Just no absolutely no, please just bring back the old poptropica with the old maps this is just ridiculous. You basically took out everything fun and interesting about poptropica and turned it into trash.

### 1/5 — Boring and bad

*2025-11-08*

I used to love poptropica when I was younger but this ain’t it. It’s so boring and bad. You don’t like any freedom and the islands are really restricted and boring.

### 1/5 — Change it back

*2025-10-27*

Please bring back the old game. Maybe give it different versions for different age groups. This new one is so boring and you don’t have the freedom to change your avatar. Please bring the other one back.

### 1/5 — Not my Poptropica!

*2025-10-23*

There is no story. It’s just a hide and seek/ simple English game. It’s not like the OG poptropica. The islands take a long while to load and yes the characters talk in this one. Please bring back the story that gives it depth and revive old islands like zombie island (etc)

### 1/5 — Poptropica

*2025-10-02*

yoooo please change it back to the old Islands…I mean what Is this new update and stuff ? I understand the education game and other stuff but did y’all really had to TAKE THE OLD GAME VERSION!!? please for gods sake put it back for entertainment and happiness / joy

### 4/5 — Some annoying things but good overall

*2022-12-22*

Im 15, so of course I am not the target audience for this app. However, it is built really well and gives me that Poptropica feel, minus the annoying voices of the characters.
