Trivia[]

  • In a video that was recorded in 2007 and reposted by a youtuber called "idk's Poptropica Videos" It showed that Time Tangled Island's original name was actually "Time Travel Island", not "Time Twisted Island".
  • Time Tangled went through three different names First being "Time Travel" the second being "Time Twisted" and its current name "Time Tangled".
  • Time Tangled Island is updated every year as the "Lab" setting of the time machine must reflect the present year.
  • Time Tangled Island is the first Poptropica island to feature sound (when you play the Phonograph).
  • You get to travel back in time and see people from as far back as 0328 BC on this island. In Early Poptropica Island it is said that the Pilgrims, who were the first to settle in Poptropica, only settled in 1982, making this a continuity error. (or maybe since this is Earth history you travel back to, then you are not traveling back to ancient Poptropica but ancient Greece)
  • When you get out of your blimp on the sand there's a little red crab. You click on him, and he does this movement as if he's squeezing into a ball, but then he gets back to his normal position. Now, click on him several times until he explodes. Then it gathers back into the original form, so you can do it again and again. 
  • Once you gave the people who climb Mount Everest the goggles, you used to be able go back to the Aztec Empire and get the goggles again. This bug was patched when the island was converted to Beta.
  • Time Tangled Island was the third Beta island, and the second to be converted from non-Beta to Beta.
  • Time Tangled Island is the first Island to feature a character whose appearance is based on the player's appearance. The character is the player's future self.
  • Professor Pendulum can be seen vacationing in the Tourist Center on Shark Tooth island

Glitches[]

  • Magic Goggles Glitch: After you return the climbing goggles to the correct time period, sometimes when you return to the guy who gave it to you, he will be wearing the same pair of goggles. You can collect the goggles from him using the Warrior Headdress.
  • Ad Glitch: If you go into an ad on Main Street, the Time Device still appears at the bottom left of the screen. If you click it, the year display is blank and the arrow points at the picture of Thomas Edison.
  • Viking Era Glitch: Sometimes if you complete the Viking Era, even if it saves properly, it will count the Viking Era as unfinished and you must redo it.
  • All Era Glitch: This so far has only been reported by Zany Lightning, A.K.A. Paladinluke. Same as above, but other eras will be glitched, such as Aztec and Chinese.
