Glitches

About

This is the Glitch page, where we have all the glitches you will ever need! From handheld items to changing genders, there’s bound to be one you’ll want to try. The glitches are split into categories for your convenience (Costumes, Eyes and Facial Hair, Handheld Items, Useful Glitches, and Miscellaneous)!

We appreciate all of the glitches suggested in the comments, but the glitch must follow one of three conditions for it to be put on the page:

1. The glitch must be something useful for Poptropica,
2. The glitch must be something customizable, or
3. The glitch must be given special permission.

Notice: If any glitch no longer works, please say so in the comments! 🙂 Thanks!

Make sure to visit similar pages, such as Easter Eggs and Cheat Codes.

Special thanks to Sam’s Poptropica Cheat Blog (TIB) and Adventure Time Pop (ATP). Other glitches will be given credit.

You will now have the eyes of jcwarw69, but with eyelashes and you’re still a girl!

Flying

First, you need the Back Lot Island Clapboard. Put it on. Next, jump, while keeping the cursor above your Poptropican and don’t let go of the left mouse button. Keep doing it, but use your other hand to press the spacebar while still in midair, and you will jump while in midair! This may take a few tries, but it works! If you keep pushing the spacebar, you’ll eventually reach the sky! Apparently, in Poptropica, the sky has a limit. 😉
~Michael A.K.A. Curious Grape

Flying on SUI’s

First, buy either the Fierce Lion costume or the Baseball Fielder costume. Equip the baseball or mouse from either costume, then go to an SUI island. Use the ability by pressing spacebar just before running off a building and you will fly until the ability is over. To fly upward, jump in a way where you will spin in the air on an SUI island, then press spacebar rapidly after you fall on the ground. It should look like you are somersaulting. Eventually, you will fly up fast, and you will stay up there until you stop pressing spacebar.

Reality T.V. Votes

If you press reload before the game on Reality T.V., or in between the games in Reality T.V., then you will go straight away to the voting and will not have to play the games and challenges.
~Rohit Jaiswal

Twisted Thicket Amulet

After you finish the island, Twisted Thicket, keep the amulet on. Restart the island and you get to use the amulet throughout the island!
~Cuddly Lion

Zooming

This only works on non-updated islands. To zoom in, scroll with your mouse and push Ctrl at the same time. It helps you see farther than normal! Also, you can scroll out (for those computers that have a wide screen). You could also push Ctrl and the + sign to zoom in or the Ctrl and – sign to zoom out.

Miscellaneous

Friend a Clone

You need a sibling or a friend with you. You and the other person log on to the same user (on different computers) and then go to the same island (such as Home Island) and both go to the Common Room at the same time. You can chat, battle, and friend your exact clone! Once you or the other one exits the game, you will no longer have the clone.
~Bendy Flyer

Friend an NPC

On Spy Island, once you have gotten the Invisible Suit, go to the rooftops with the suit on. Get close to the B.A.D agent once he has stopped, without overlapping. Click on him and the Friend, Battle, and Chat bubbles will pop up. Click on a friend and you will friend someone called “Maroon Rider.” It says she has no photos, but she actually has all of your photos.
