The broken back fall
So, for some reason you're flying around in a storm, you know thaking the sceninc route maybe getting some pictures of animals getting hit by lightning or Thor and Iron Man going at it, which has already been done. And suddenly, totally unexpected, you get struck by lightning and your blimp falls. Don't worry you can patch it up. And by that, I mean you can patch up the new blimp that you'll buy at the 24-hour blimp store. Anyway, the only thing that's not toast is your backpack, which you are now hanging by. So, you can sit there losing your head to frostbite, or you can fall. Small price to pay to... well it's not a small price considering most surgery costs way more than the fifty bucks in your Hemlock Harbor bank accou- I'm getting off-topic. Making a lot of bunny TRAILS! HAHAHA!!!! CUZ YOU FALL INTO SNOW!!!!! THAT'S A PUNNY JOKE!!! Anyway, you just probably just broke every bone in your body... Except your thumbs. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I just realized nobody got that reference cuz I'm the only one who still has the sense of humor of a twelve-year-old. Anyway, if that had just happened to me, I'd lay on the couch in my full body cast, have a coke and watch some back-to-back episodes of Psych. But we're stranded in the wilderness, and I doubt that there's Netflix in the wilderness. However, there is a book, for some reason. You'll see it right when you fall. And, as the Lucky Charms leprechaun would have it, it's a guide to wilderness survival(I don't need none of that, thanks Up!). Pick it up, and it'll tell you to make a fire. You don't learn from books. You DO learn, however that this book actually is right about the fire thing, from Man vs. Wild. SO GET TO MAKIN THAT FIRE.

How to not lose your hands to frostbite :)
There will be some logs around here somwhere... Um, I can't seem to find them, I dunno, hmmm... Well, you'll find them. There, like, near a tree or something. You have to find the bajillions of pages all overe the forest anyway go EVERYWHERE. You're lost anyway, that's what I do when I'm lost. That is how I ended up with poison Ivy-age, though... Oh, well. Do it anyway. Just climb every tree, go everywhere. Go back and forth. You'll find pages whenever you need 'em, and they'll be added to your inventory. About that, Does anyone else find it weird that your backpack went flying into the wreckage and you still have your time lord technology item bag, which is also apparently invisible to those who are so pure of heart, they only netflix G-rated movies. Anyway, they'll just be added to the book in order. So, go to the... right, I think. Twice actually. There's the biggest tree ever there, but it's fallen. It looks like the wreckage of the Titanic if it were made of wood. there is a hole in it and you have to go through it. You'll see some rats there, just ignore them. They clearly want privacy. Hence the tiny "Do Not Disturb" sign. Keep going left till you get to the end of the log. There's some gloves there, also inexplicably placed in a conveniant spot. I inexplicably know what the word inexplicably means. I just heard it in context. Just like I did with the word context. Now, go back to the main street-y thing, and left. Keep walking left, but don't go to the cliff cuz you could fall off and die. That's the great part of this island. You can die. I guess the storm is slightly damaging your invincibility powers. Another reason you don't GO FLYING IN A STORM. But, you'll see a stump with an axe stuck in it. Now use your awesome superhuman Hulk strength powers to pull it out. Unfortunately the whole thing doesn't exactly come out... just the HANDLE. I guess the storm is damaging your superpowers... Hey, maybe you should NOT FLY IN THE STORM next time. But, go back to where that tree was. Avoid falling in the hole and just jump over it. You'll find a nice, sheltered area great for making a fire. Unfortunately, we can't do that, cuz we stink at it. But the manual can help. READ EVERYTHING. If it's not all there, find more pages. But later. Cuz now, you have to climb the hill. Find the boulder, and use your "strength" WHICH YOU DON'T HAVE ANYMORE. Sorry, once I get an idea in my head, I can't let go of it. But just use the handle and crowbar-ify the boulder thing. It will roll all over the place and send all the snow flying everywhere and stuff and then stop at a stump. While you were STANDING AROUND NOT HAVING SUPERPOWERS AND FINALLY WONDERING WHY YOU FLEW IN A STORM, a cave opened up from the boulder. We're going in...

Bear with me.......
We're in. That wasn't so hard. WHAT'S WITH ALL THE BATS ON POPTROPICA FOLLOWING ME... BATS FREAK ME OUT!! Anyway, it will become pitch black, and if you go in too far, a BEAR WILL WAKE UP. BEARS ARE NICE, CUDDLY CREATURES WHO ONLY SCARE ME WHEN THEY'RE ON HONEY BOTTLE THINGS. But this one's evil. In all the FORESTS with STORMS going on in them, you FLEW into the one with evil bears. Just jump, climb on the invisible protecty thing and jump really quick and really far or it will wake up, be evil, eat your flesh, spit it out, and wear it so it can go to prom. OR HOMECOMING!!!! But you'll find a light spot with DRY KINDLING. For some reason that's like, really awesome. I dunno.

Worst follow the leader game EVER
Go back to the main streety thing cuz I forgot something. In the trees there's a woodpecker. It keeps flying everywhere and being a brat. Just follow it even though it is a brat. It will eventually, after being a brat little brat bird, lead you to a squirrel. Which lives in a nest, for some reason. But now anymore, cuz you just took the nest. Now go back and move the boulder more so it hits the thing and stuff. Now, the wind can't get to you and you can do stuff. BUT FIRST, OF COURSE, YOU HAVE TO GO ALL THE WAY TO THE OTHER END OF THE WOODS AND FIND SOMETHING ELSE. Being lost sux.

ANOTHER BACKPACK
When you get to the OTHER SIDE OF THE FOREST, you bounce of the wood on the stump to the left branch. Then jump to the right up, keep going, and you'll find ANOTHER BACKPACK. There's some sort of like, grappling plunger thing, climb it. Keep going, and there's ANOTHER BACKPACK there. Jump to branch above it and hit it to punish it for appearing, and a key or something will fall out. Put on your mittens which are TOTALLY NOT CUTE, and clear the snow where it fell, and pick it up.

Making a fire for idiots like Bear Grylls!
Go to the fire place. use your axe thing and move the stone to block it from the wind and vampire hunters who are vampires. Now, to make a fire. click the button thing and READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. No one ever reads them and now they will pay. Once you've cleared it out and put everything up, you've got a fire, and a medal thing.

Then you see binoculars zooming in on you, which can only mean one thing... POPTROPICA HAS BEEN INSIDE A PAIR OF BINOCULARS THIS WHOLE TIME!!!!!!!

TBC........................ SO MANY DOTS ..............

Episode 2 Hook, Line and Sinker
Yep, the only episode that encourages littering, deforestation and animal cruelty.

Living Off The Land!
You'll land in a tree. In a tree...feeling so happy...my pants are full of bees...keys threes zero gs...Anyway, first thing's first-get down from there. Once you're on the ground you'll see a muddy rock. Flip it over and get the worm in the mud. There are also other rocks you can flip over to find other forms of bait for the fish such as grubs and pillbugs. But only the worm will work because fishes are discriminatory!

Walk up to that weird hill-type thing with the log blocking the hole. You'll have to push the log out of the way to get down there. Which is weird, because if the log can block that hole, it definitely would not be large enough for you to fit through. But you fit through it anyway because LOGIC!

Keep Out Of The Water
Cross over to the next area. Is that a beaver lodge? It's a beaver lodge! It's like a ski lodge but more beaver-ish! Jump over the lodge to the other side but don't fall in the freezing water! For some reason the beavers have a fish hook in their lodge on display like a fancy golden lemur statue. YOU NEED THAT LEMUR STATUE! Get all the way to the opposite side of the lodge.

The dam will start leaking and the water level will slowly lower. You'll have to keep the beavers from fixing the hole long enough for the water to deplete so you can get the golden lemur statue- er I meant fish hook. WOW that was a mouthful. You'll have to jump on the floating logs to hit the beavers when they try to fix the holes.

Congratulations! You've destroyed the beavers' way of life and evicted them from their home! Then go get the fish hook. Also, find the fishing rod up the tree. Up a tree...oh how merry I shall be...bloobity blabbity blee...something something so hungry...

Breaking The Ice
Head on over to the next area. Quickly swim through the predatory fish-infested, freezing cold, ruthless and unforgiving water to the other side. There's a bit of ice on the surface that you're going to have to break in order to get to the soft and chewy center. That is the fish.

You know those flat stones you can flip over?There's one right above you. Flip the stone into the weird hole in the ground. That way it acts as a bridge over the pit. Then head to the left and you'll find a tree that has been almost completely chewed down by a beaver (Did it just start chewing it and just stop halfway for some reason?). Push it over so that it acts as a ramp. At the top of that ramp is a boulder (which is too perfectly round to have occured in nature. But sure! Give the players an unrealistic expectation of what boulders should look like!) Push the boulder down the ramp and it'll roll all the way until it shatters the sheet of ice. But don't celebrate just yet!

The Shoelace Method
Now we can have some MORE fun with deforestation! There's going to be a chewed up tree right next to a not chewed-up tree. (What? Did the beavers just think "Oh look! There's a tree we can chew up! And after we chew up this tree, we can skip the one next to it and go for the one next to the lake! Because REASON!)

Push down the tree so that it leans against the not chewed-up tree. Run up onto the branch and push down the other chewed up tree. It'll fall in the freezing cold river and act as a boat. Use it to cross the river halfway so that it floats beneath the teeny tiny tree branch. You know, the one with the shoe. No, not that one. The other one. BLAH! In any case, get the shoe and you'll obtain a shoelace. Now, you'll have to assemble the fishing rod. Use the fish hook and then extend the line with a shoelace.

Now go all the way across the river and climb up the tree. Position yourself over the hole in the top of the tree. Then equip the fishing rod and press spacebar to lower the line into the hole and hook the other shoe and pull it out. (Wait, is that grass growing INSIDE that tree?!? How? What? WHA?!?) Use the shoelace to extend the line further. *kneels down* It is done. The fishing rod is complete.

Finish The Job
Now it's time to finish the job. (Or as a person with a heavy Russian accent would say: FEENEESH DE JOB) Head on back to the place with the fish. Use the worms you got as bait and lower the line into the water. You will catch the fish and then.....it's done basically. The game cuts to a scene of you having a seafood barbeque at night. (Wait, that thing took an ENTIRE DAY? If I had to wait that long for a fish I would have eaten the worms!) BUT! It turns out you're being watched.......by a mysterious figure in the darkness. *cough* TOTALLY CLICHED TWIST *cough*

Episode 3: Distress Signal
Coming soon....
