Club Penguin Rewritten: Pirate Party 2022 – Full Guide
The Pirate Party has begun on Club Penguin Rewritten, and it’s an event filled with duels and spoils! This post will provide a full guide to the event, including how the duelling and crab-battling mechanisms work, and details on obtaining all the available items.
Shellbeard is Confirmed to visit as a mascot for the first time, and you can find his tracker here. Rockhopper is also Likely to visit, and his tracker can be found here.

The general storyline to this party is that Shellbeard, a nefarious pirate villain, has arrived on Club Penguin to try and steal the treasure! It appears that he’s managed to sink the Migrator, and he’s also brought a variety of pirate crabs who you can duel against in order to re-claim some of the treasure.
The dialog for this event can be found by clicking the top right of the screen. From here, you can “Collect” a wooden sword at the bottom left of the screen – you’ll need this item in order to participate in duels!

The rules of duels and battles are similar to “Rock, Paper, Scissors”, or Card-Jitsu if you’re more familiar with that:
- High (top) defeats mid (right)
- Mid (right) defeats low (left)
- Low (left) defeats high (top)
In order to instigate a duel, you simply need to wear a sword (which will be in your inventory as a Hand item) and dance by pressing D on your keyboard. You can also join a duel instigated by someone else by waddling next to them and dancing with a sword equipped. From there, press whichever option you wish to go with!
Step 1: instigate duel Step 2: pick your strike Step 3: win or lose!
Winners will earn 20 points, whereas a loss or a draw will get you 10 points. These points help you achieve other swords viewable from the main party dialog. It probably won’t take more than ten minutes to collect all the swords, as these are intended to be quick draws.
At different rooms, also accessible from the “Go there!” button on the party dialog, you can also find treasure chests which offer prompts to duel crabs. These function exactly the same as normal duels against penguins, except you’ll be up against crabs instead, and it may take a couple of tries to defeat them! Once you do, you’ll receive some coins and items, which will automatically be added to your inventory.

Given that there are so many items available through the duel and battling systems, there aren’t any scattered across the island, with the exception of the Toy Sailboat Pin at the bottom of the Beach. However, there’s still much to look forward to as Shellbeard begins visiting the island for the first time! Don’t forget that you can also find the Ship Battle from the sailboat at the bottom right corner of the Beach, where you can fire snowballs with cannons, and the Tree Forts from the Forest.

Proud of the team for pulling off this event. Glad to see swords as an item, been trying to get a cool looking one for a while (only had the balloon one).

hey torres, i need a quick response, is it possible to get into shellbeards quarters?
Torres 126
Hi! It isn’t yet, no.

Whoa I didn’t realize club penguin still existed. I used to play back in the 2000s, I’m probably way too old đŸ˜‚ This looks cool though!

Never too late to return to the island, even if it’s for a bit of a nostalgia trip! đŸ™‚ Club Penguin sadly closed a few years ago, but it continues through different private servers, including Club Penguin Rewritten (the one blogged about here).

Could you explain the ship battle? I can’t figure it out. Thanks!
Torres 126
I’m afraid that I don’t think there’s much to say about it – I think you’re supposed to be able to fire snowballs with the cannons, but it’s a little bugged anyway.

you missed the ship battle! get to it from the little sailboat bottom right corner of the beach! would also be cool to see the treetop rooms mentioned in the update
Torres 126
I’ll add a note about it!

Correction: It probably won’t take more than FIVE minutes to collect all the swords. Seriously. 15 minutes is a huge overestimation.

Maybe I just wasn’t very good at the game! đŸ˜› I’ll put it at ten…
PGPUFFLE
Why is there an alien puffle(or at least a one-eyed puffle) at the Dock? It’s on the corner of the green ship(not the black shell).

This is what Shellbeard’s playercard looks like when he steals your coins.
SHELLBEARD
You stole 100 coins from DaddyBoi!
