CP Rewritten: Igloo Likes “Soon” to be Implemented
Last year, the team stated that they were considering methods to introduce Igloo Likes whilst ensuring that they didn’t become too competitive in-game. Their decision has now been revealed, and Igloo Likes won’t be displayed on the Igloo Map! They will, however, be added to the game “soon”.
Penguins, we will be releasing Igloo Likes soon due to [many] requests. This will come with a slight change: Igloo Likes will not be showing up on the igloo maps; this is to remove the competitive feel that Igloo Likes brought in original Club Penguin.
-stu, Club Penguin Rewritten administratorFor those unclear how Igloo Likes work, on classic Club Penguin, you could press “Like” if you visited an igloo that you found nice. In the screenshot below from 2014, you can find that button at the top right.
Players could then visit an igloo to see how many likes it had, along with who liked it. It’s likely that the feature will function in a similar way on Club Penguin Rewritten when it’s implemented too!

CP Rewritten: Card Jitsu “Probably” Returning this Year
There’s been a lot of curiosity about when Card Jitsu could be returning to Club Penguin Rewritten! Earlier today, the team stated that it’d “probably” be returning this year, but they were unable to make that same commitment about Card Jitsu Fire, which might still take quite a while to release.
Original Card-Jitsu [is] probably coming this year, but I don’t know about Card-Jitsu Fire coming in [this] same year.
-stu, Club Penguin Rewritten administrator
Both of those games would have to be re-added before Card Jitsu Water could be developed, so the team also stated that they were very “doubtful” that Card Jitsu Water would be coming this year.
It’d be nice to see Card Jitsu return though, and I know many people are awaiting it, so I thought that I’d share this little update! Even if it doesn’t confirm much properly, it does give some indication that we might need to wait a few months to play the game again, and probably over a year for Card Jitsu Water.

CP Rewritten: Submarine Party Confirmed
Earlier in the month, it was reported that the Submarine Party was likely to be an upcoming party on Club Penguin Rewritten. This has now been confirmed by the team!
Although there’s not really any indication yet of when the party will begin, the team have released Aqua Grabber today in preparation of the event! You can play the game as normal at the Iceberg, however it’s worth noting that this hasn’t been converted to the game’s new technology yet, so there could still be some issues with it.
It’s also unclear what the storyline will be for the party; it’s entirely possible that it could vary significantly from event on classic Club Penguin in 2008 since that involved the sinking of the Migrator! As more information is revealed about the Submarine Party though, I’ll be sure to share it with you!

CP Rewritten: Bean Counters Introduced
As you’re likely aware, a number of mini-games on Club Penguin Rewritten haven’t been implemented yet as a result of the transition to HTML5! However, earlier today, the team introduced Bean Counters to the game again. You can find it at the same place in the Coffee Shop!
Update – 28th January: due to a series of bugs, Bean Counters is no longer available and will be implemented in the future.
This mini-game might feel a little broken and slow because it’s currently relying on a Flash emulator; in other words, it still needs to be updated to the new technology, and once that has completed, the game will be a lot more smooth. However, you should still be able to enjoy some decent gameplay with it!

CP Rewritten: Cops & Robbers Outfits at Noir Party
Earlier in the month, the Club Penguin Rewritten team stated they were planning a Noir Party, which you can read a lot more about in this post! However, the team have now also given some indication about the items which would be available at such an event, stating they “plan” to add the outfits for police officers and robbers. 👮
I already plan on adding Cops and Robbers outfits when [we] do the Noir Party
-stu, Club Penguin Rewritten administratorAlthough it’s still very unclear when this event could be happening, and it probably might not be for several months, this does give some indication that the team is continuing to plan it through. A lot of the information, especially about timing, for the Noir Party is still very limited though!

CP Rewritten: 4th Anniversary Cake Sketch
Earlier today, the Club Penguin Rewritten team shared a sneak peek for the cake which will appear at the 4th Anniversary Party in February! It’s an annual tradition for a cake to be present, but it has a different colour scheme each year, which the Anniversary Hats then tend to be based on.
As a reminder, the game’s anniversary is on February 12th, but the event may begin a few days before that! The team also said that they are “hoping” to have a mascot visit for this event, but more details will be revealed about this later.
In other news, the team confirmed that the January Penguin Style would be skipped in favour of working on a February one next month too! However, they haven’t provided any indication about whether the Submarine Party, which they initially mentioned this month, will be proceeding.
If any new information is revealed, I’ll be sure to let you know – thank you very much for reading!

CP Rewritten: New Client – Common Questions
I’ve been reading everyone’s comments and messages this week, and there’s been lots of questions about the new Club Penguin Rewritten client! I thought that it’d be easiest to answer them all in a single post.
I can’t seem to log on!
It’s worth noting that this is the beta period, and so the game is frequently down for maintenance, so you might just want to try logging on later. The “Penguin is already online” error is being worked on as a matter of priority. I’m afraid that I don’t have a solution for it.
Password resets were fixed today, so you can reset your password as normal now.
Where are puffles and most mini-games?
Puffles haven’t been added at all yet, but when they are, you’ll still have your ones which you had from last year. If you’re seeing a puffle in-game, it’s probably Flare, who is the EPF puffle which can be accessed from your inventory. However, players who were holding a puffle when the transition period started in December can continue to do so.
Several mini-games are missing; the most popular ones are being developed as a priority, and that includes Card Jitsu & Pizzatron 3000.
What are the main known bugs?
There’s definitely a variety of bugs which the team are working on, and if you’ve discovered one, it’s best to contact them (you can email them) about it rather than leaving a comment here as this is just a fan-blog. But to give you an idea about the main bugs being worked on:
- “Penguin is already online” error
- Stuck in an infinite loading loop
- Special dances aren’t behaving as normal
- Funky chat bugs & text input on login when using mobile
- Issues with mini-games (especially Ice Fishing)
- Issues with igloos (mainly relating to Igloo Locations)
- Some items don’t appear on the playercard properly
- Joining room issues
As always, I’ll continue to try and answer questions in the comments, but I hope that helps clear up the most common ones which I’m seeing!

(By the way, I’m going to stop referring to the new client as the “HTML5 client” as much going forward; at some point, it’s necessary just to refer it to as just “Club Penguin Rewritten”! That means the “HTML5 version” category might be a little less useful now that #CPR2020 has concluded.)

CP Rewritten: New Year New Us Pin Location
A new pin has been hidden on Club Penguin Rewritten! You can find this pin at the Plaza, at the bottom left of the room. It’s the “New Year New Us” Pin intended to mark the transition to HTML5.
To obtain this pin, click it and then click “Yes”. It will be then be added to your inventory so that you can wear it as well as your stampbook! If someone is blocking it, I would suggest going on an emptier server to obtain it.

Club Penguin Rewritten Returns in HTML5!
It’s been a fairly long wait of three weeks, but Club Penguin Rewritten has returned with its brand new HTML5 client! It might initially feel a little different since the game now uses a completely different technology, but the main elements are all here.
It’s worth noting that this is still a beta; the team are working on fixing various bugs, and re-introducing different mini-games remains a priority. The game will probably still take some time to get used to!
I’ll be sure to keep you updated with any new information as it’s released, but please don’t be surprised by any bugs which you encounter as this is a beta!

CP Rewritten: Game to Relaunch Today
Some exciting news has been shared which many players have been awaiting this month: Club Penguin Rewritten will be returning later today with its new HTML5 client!
If you try visiting the site now, you’ll be able to tell that it’s a little broken. The team are aware of this issue, and the error will be fixed once the game has released later today. There’s no set time for when this will be!
The island might feel a little different since there’ll be less mini-games, but your penguin have all its data transferred over. It’s definitely something which people have been looking forward to for a while though, and the wait will soon be over!
Waddle on!
