CP Island’s New Community Manager: Sam!
The new Club Penguin Island community manager has been revealed, her penguin name is Penny Pebbles but her actual name is Sam!
To introduce her, the team have uploaded a short new video, explaining a bit about the changes! The main thing noted is that Joe will still also be a community manager and is not going anywhere!
I’d like to give a warm welcome to Sam and I hope that she enjoys her time on our island! I’m really excited for some of the fun times ahead! For example, the team now want to continue to create new (hopefully non-Disney) Island Insiders!

I can’t wait to hear more from Penny Pebbles and wish her the best of luck at the new job! Thank you very much for reading, waddle on!

CP Island: Puffle Wilds Concept & Cafe
It’s been a while since I’ve caught up with some of the latest Club Penguin Island news, I apologise for this! Please note that all information in this post is unofficial unless stated otherwise.
Today I want to share with you some unofficial pictures and information about future updates. Let’s start with an extremely realistic looking concept of the Puffle Wilds, kindly shared to me by Flippy!
This is a concept that could be for Club Penguin, but it looks to be very much in the Island style, as well as there being interactive items. It looks incredible, even showcasing a design of puffles! This is just an early concept, but we can see an area similar to the Puffle Park and lots of stores!
You might be wondering that this could just be a brilliant fan-art, but there is more proof to suggest a Puffle Forest like the one above! This screenshot below is from the files and kindly provided to me MrKcyre mentions a few buildings, include a puffleForest.
This also suggests it is highly likely a Puffle Forest will come in the future! However, you may be wondering about some of the other items on there! For example, the Cafe. This is likely what the Cafe will seem like, shared to me by MrKcyre. It has the same sort of feel to the buildings in the concept image!
The other building is Rory’s Furniture Sign! It seems that the beloved builder from classic Club Penguin, Rory, will finally be making his return to our new island! This has been rumoured for a while, but now there is even more evidence to suggest this!
That’s some very exciting information in this post, especially relating to the new area! I’d like to give a huge thank you to Flippy and MrKcyre for the images in this post! Please remember that none of the information here is officially confirmed.
Thank you for reading, waddle on!

CP Island: Big Hero 6 Items
Big Hero 6 will be the next major franchise coming to the Disney Store on Club Penguin Island next month! The team shared a sneak peek of some of the outfits and decals here.
The first thing which was shared was an outfit of Hiro. In my opinion, this is the best Disney outfit so far, it actually looks super cool!
The team also shared two new decals San Frantokyian and a hero version of Hiro! These were the designs that were published.
Big Hero 6 looks to be my favourite Disney-CPI franchise so far, the costumes look incredible! Thank you very much for reading, be sure to check back for more of the latest news and guides!

Club Penguin Island: Ghost Meter Filled
The Ghost Meter has been filled on Club Penguin Island, with Gary congratulating you as soon as you enter the Island Central area!
Members can collect the Pumpkin Costume and everyone can collect the All Hallows’ Tee, however it appears that the ghost game is still available to play for the 20 coins reward.
I feel like it’s important to share that this was not a community event, the ghost bar filled up automatically without the interference of the community. This was proven by the files and that it was completely filled up at exactly midnight PST, but at least it did a good job of bringing many penguins online!
I’m really glad that non-members are finally able to wear an item! Hopefully there will be more activities, like a Scavenger Hunt, over the course of the month on the island. Thank you very much for reading!
Waddle on!

Club Penguin Island – Igloo Development Sneak Peek
The Club Penguin Island team have uploaded a video on the blog containing details on igloos, which can be viewed here! In this post, I’ll be showing a bit more detail to the rather fast paced video published!
As we can see above, furniture will be quite similar to the Clothing Customiser. You will be able to rotate it and enlargen it before placing it, and the angle of the igloo will change as you decorate it.
You will be able to have three igloo layouts, and I believe that they can vary in size. There won’t be a basement for these igloos but there will be a roof, domed like the ones we see in Island Central!
Let’s start with some furniture. The first thing to note are all the tabs. There will be a catalog, which is probably going to be like the clothing catalog, suggesting we will be able to edit furniture. Along with buildings and furniture, there’s also effects, which sounds cool!
The bottom tabs say “Furniture, Decoration, Landscaping, Terrain and Interactions”, which all seem to contain different items to use in our igloo. These are some furniture items.
And here are some Decorations. These actually look really cool, we can see a well, a fountain (yay!), a really hi-tech computer screen and much more! The “Landscaping”, “Terrain” and “Interaction” sections have still not been revealed, but so far, this section is my favourite.
It also appears that igloos can have both an indoor and an outdoor area, as well as different rooms. This was one of the examples of an igloo shared inside the video!
To conclude this post, I’d like to just give some context with this concept art that was published in March earlier this year for igloos. I must admit that this does just seem more active and exciting than the images today, but I’m really liking the possibilities, especially with the outdoor area. I just hope that the interactive items are as exciting too!
However, there’s also a lot more plans for igloos in the future, including the ability to own a functioning store!
https://twitter.com/clubpenguin/status/921475415134183424
Igloos will be released in the next update and everyone will get one as well as furniture, which is great! Thank you very much for reading, be sure to check back for more of the latest news and guides!

Club Penguin Island – 1.7 Update (Island Central & Halloween)
The Club Penguin Island 1.7 update has been released for many, containing a new area, party and mini-game along with other small improvements!
This post will be fully sharing what’s in this new update and be a guide for the Halloween Party!
The largest selling point of this new update is a brand new area: Island Central. It is a spectacular new area though a lot smaller than many expected, but this is due to the at least three rooms which have not opened up yet. Currently, the only store open is just another Disney Store.
A new mini-game has been released! The concept is that you need to memorise the notes which appear on the screen and then tap them out of the three options. Though it’s not too difficult, it’s a pretty cool game and definitely exceeded my expectations!
Franky’s Pizza is a lot smaller than originally expected but it does contain two new varieties of pizza! On the topic of Party Supplies, party games have had their prices reduced and Marble Hunt is back! Also, fishing now rewards you with 5XP for a random mascot.
There’s also a little Halloween Pumpkin Supply which you take candy from and put in your beak.
The other huge part of this update is the Halloween Event! The entire island is decorated with some night skies and other spooky items. When you log on, you will also receive 3 emojis, 3 fabrics and 3 decals.
There’s also a little activity to achieve some rewards, which some are also available for non-members. These are the rewards on offer., but they need to be unlocked!
These are the steps to earn these items!
- Enter the Island Central area where a cut scene will automatically begin
- Listen to Gary and watch his invention
- Head to the little bat statue on the right side of the area. A timer will count down, so try and gather some friends before it hits zero!
- When the pumpkins appear, start throwing snowballs at them. Eventually, you’ll knock over all the pumpkins but you have to do it within a time limit, similar to Crate & Co!
- You’ll earn some coins, but then you’ll need to listen to Gary again and watch the machine
- Keep battling the ghosts again until the meter fills up, which may take a while, but then you can claim your reward!
That pretty much concludes the contents of this update! However, there is one more thing I’d like to share with you. We already know some rather exciting content is coming, such as igloos, but the team also included this in the new Island Central area. It seems familiar from classic Club Penguin because it is a puffle. Is this the Puffle Forest?
I would like to give some further thoughts on it. This update disappoints me due to the lack of new levels and general lack of incentive to play. As a max-level player, I have no reason to log on everyday or pay for membership.
Island Central looks beautiful, but with so many shops closed, all it really is are a few more seats, a Dance Game (which is really cool) and some new gear. That doesn’t make me too happy, simply because of there being no new levels, which would have made a huge (positive difference).
Other than that, I hope you will enjoy the update! Thank you very much for reading, be sure to check back for more of the latest news and guides! Waddle on!

CP Island: Team Dance Battle – Island Central
Cadence and a new mini-game will be arriving at the new Island Central area on the 1.7 Club Penguin Island update later next week! The team shared a sneak peek on the new game here.
In the post, they reveal some small details about the new mini-game, including that up to 10 people can be part of a team and there are two teams. On-screen commands will appear on the screen and you simply have to click the button, similar to Dance Contest!
My only concern is that this might be fairly simple, especially since there are only three buttons. Also, without there being new levels, there isn’t really much incentive for max-level players such as myself to play this mini-game or really the new update at all. I’m still hoping that eventually the team will start to include new levels in every update.
That’s all the information revealed in this post, thank you very much for reading! Be sure to check back for more of the latest news and guides!

CP Island: Voice Acting of Gary, Herbert & Shellbeard
Part two of the Dev Diaries on voice acting has been released, containing Behind-the-Scenes footage of the voice acting of Gary, Herbert and Shellbeard!
Amazingly, these three characters are all played by one person (Todd Haberkorn) yet sounded completely different to me in-game! Here’s the video which was published.
This was a really cool, yet short, video, and I was really interested to hear how the team bring the characters to life! However, I am slightly disappointed that we no longer even get a thumbnail for videos. Overall, this video was quite cool, but maybe not quite worth the wait.
Thank you for reading, waddle on!

CP Island: Pumpkin Party Supply & Bells Decal
Later this month, Halloween will be arriving on the island and today the team have shared a sneak peek of a party supply on Club Penguin Island in the 1.7 update!
This is the pumpkin which will be a party supply later this month.
Although we don’t know if it’ll be temporary or permanent, I hope that this will be more than just a usual, small action. Perhaps we’ll be able to collect candy and then exchange them for rewards, such as coins or items. It may look familiar to you as it can be seen in this mysterious image!
Along with that, the team also shared a decal which will be obtainable in the 1.8 update in December! It’s a decal of some bells, so it definitely seems related to the Holiday Party! Perhaps something similar will happen then too!
Those are all the Club Penguin Island sneak peeks which were shared today, thank you very much for reading! I’m excited to see what the Halloween/Holiday Party will hold, and be sure to check back for more of the latest news and guides!
Waddle on!
