Chillin’ in the Club Soundtrack
Last week marked exactly five years since classic Club Penguin closed, and the release of Club Penguin Island – it feels quite remarkable that happened half a decade ago now. As such, for today’s Mountains Monday soundtrack, I’ve decided to pick a potentially nostalgic track titled “Chillin’ in the Club”.
If this sounds familiar, it was the tune which played whenever you opened the Club Penguin Island app! However, I think that it’s also a pleasant track, which I hope you’ll enjoy listening to.
Waddle on!

Card-Jitsu Quiz
Following several requests, as part of the new Mountains Monday schedule for this year, the fourth week of the month will now always contain a five-question quiz on a topic related to Club Penguin! These are very low-stake and simply intended for a bit of fun, but I hope that you’ll still enjoy them.
Given that there’s only one thing consuming the island right now, which is the return of Card-Jitsu, I thought that it’d be appropriate to hold a quiz on the game!
1. The Card-Jitsu Saga featured the backstory of Sensei and which other character, who ended up both becoming enemies?TuskAfter Tusk hurled an avalanche at Sensei in a friendly battle, he hurled it back, resulting in Tusk being trapped in a cave. This would be a grievance that would later lead to Card-Jitsu Snow…SlyScrapScorn2. What was the name of the catalog filled with items around Card-Jitsu?Martial ArtworksNinjas could access this catalog from the Ninja Hideout.Costume TrunkNinja FashionSensei Styles3. Snow Ninjas in Card-Jitsu Snow could use what item?ShurikenThis weapon was effectively two discs shaped as snowflakes.NunchakuHammerAxe4.

Penguins Around the World – March 2022
It’s the second Monday of the month, and therefore an opportunity to feature another set of photos as part of Penguins Around the World!
The first is a set of drawings by Arionamaria9 for their scrapbook! They look incredible, and they’re all based around the different mascot backgrounds so might even seem familiar. The second image was taken by Lunax, and features her dog, Nadule, alongside a penguin – it’s quite a relief that Nadule didn’t eat the penguin!

Club Penguin’s Dojo DS Theme
It’s the first Monday of the month, where a Club Penguin tune is shared here on this blog! Given all the excitement around Card-Jitsu, I’ve decided to share a track which is similar to the Dojo’s tune, but with a twist. This was actually the soundtrack used on the Nintendo DS EPF game for the Dojo and Puffle Hideout!
There’s a lot of relaxing tunes associated with Card-Jitsu, such as this one, but I really like how fast-pace and exciting this track is – I think it perfectly captures the atmosphere of the Dojo! Nevertheless, it wasn’t used on the island normally outside the DS game, and many often prefer the version of the track used there instead.
I hope you enjoy the tune!
Waddle on!

The answer was D – the pattern was the colours on the vending machine in the Arcade, and you can see that brown is the last one which appears.

Card Jitsu Cards Giveaway (07/02/22)
I’m afraid that, last week, it turns out that I incorrectly posted the “Tunes” part of Mountains Monday instead of a Card-Jitsu cards giveaway. As such, I thought it’d be best to hold the giveaway this week even if the schedule has been a bit off this month, and given the mix-up, there won’t be a challenge to enter!
For today, you can see all the cards below!
They are the following cards:
- The Mine Cave is Safe!
- Stadium
- Community Tree
- April Fools
- Puffle Rescue: Underwater (power card)
The giveaway has now closed! The winner is Super107 – congratulations, and please check your email! If you didn’t win, don’t worry; there’ll always be more chances in the future. [screenshot]
The giveaway will end at 9am GMT on Tuesday 8th February 2022. Best of luck if you choose to enter!

Club Penguin’s Black Puffle Theme Music
It’s the first Monday of the month, where a Club Penguin tune is shared here on this blog! Given that puffles will be returning in February, I felt that it’d be appropriate to pick one of the puffle themes from the Puffle Party. This can be quite a tricky task since each domain at the event has its own theme suited to that puffle, but I think the one for the black puffle successfully matches its energy and personality!
It’s most well-known for being the theme for the black puffle at the Puffle Party, but there’s also an interesting paradox about the other places where this soundtrack was used; this is the same track for the Team Blue 2 Stage play, and the Red team’s theme. It seems that both teams on the island are a fan of it!
I hope that you enjoy the tune, and have a wonderful February!
Waddle on!
