Time Tangled Island Walkthrough

Time Tangled Island is a great early quest in Poptropica where you want to untangle the future by traveling into the past and finding certain items that have been lost. You may adventure to the different eras in any order that you like. The goal is to find lost items in certain time periods and then travel to other time periods to return them to their rightful owners. This quest is a little longer and more involved than some of the earlier islands in Poptropica. For one thing, you have to travel back and forth a lot!

  • Notebook: Go to the Statue of liberty. Climb to the top platform of the wooden stilts. Jump left. You will land on a ledge. The Notebook is on the ledge below that.
  • Salt Rocks: If you go to the Graff House and climb the tree, then jump onto the roof, they are in a bag right there.
  • Thor’s amulet: Go to the Great Wall of China and pass the construction zone. A man will be wearing the amulet. If you beat him in a memory game he will give it to you.
  • Golden Vase: Go to the Great Wall of China and take a barrel of explosives. Head over to where the Vikings are and get up onto the 1st cliff. Push the rock-pile and run. It should explode. Take the torch and go inside. You only have a little while before your torch goes out to find the vase. It will also go out if you step in water.
