~Big Nate Island Guide~
“With only a Lobster, a pack of Stale Gum, and some Peanut Butter Crackers, you can find a Time Capsule any day.”
First, to get onto the island, hop into the yellow blimp (located on Main Street of whichever island you’re on right now) and travel to the island named “Big Nate”. When you arive at the Main Street you will be greeted by Big Nate. He will tell you that he is on a search for a time capsule hidden a hundred years ago.
Head to your right and enter the shop named “Pop-In Shoppe”, a store run by Nate’s dad. At your left there is a bulletin with some background information on the time capsule. If you go to the top floor, on the green couch there is a comic strip frame. There are nine of these frames hidden around Big Nate island and they all join up to make a comic strip that will help you later in the game.
Go back outside and go to your right. Enter the “Klassic Komix” building, which is full of comics and other cool stuff. Once inside talk to the guy. He is looking for a comic he lost, he will provide you with a comic frame for it. Exit the building.
Pass the “Cap’n Salty’s” building, which is the island’s multiplayer room, and then enter the Photo Studio (the large camera), a building run by the “School Picture Guy”. On the right there is a comic frame sitting on a light. Pick it up then go back outside. Now on the right of the “Photo Studio” there is a telegraph pole you can climb. Climb to the the top to obtain another comic frame. Jump back down and go right.
You are now outside the school, where there is a large bell on the top (more information can be found later on in the guide). Head to your right and go inside the school. Inside there is a science lab, some rundown lockers, a detention hall, and a secret room. Go to your right, jump up the stairs and grab the comic frame. Enter the door labeled “Science Lab” on your left.
Once inside the room make your way next to the science geek, a boy named Francis. Click on the chemistry set next to him. Turn on the heater to 4, then pour half of the beaker with blue liquid and half with yellow, which will make a greenish color. This will produce an item - ”Stink Bomb”. It will be useful later. Go over to your left towards the Mr. Bones skeleton model and grab the comic frame on top of the planet mobile. Make your way out of the science lab and out of the school.
Climb up the wooden scaffolding on the right of the school. Grab the comic frame on it. Now go right to the Playground.
Climb to the top of the playground and head left so you are on top of the climbing wall. Floating above you is a comic frame, grab it. Go right and enter the ‘Kids Only’ house. Win the “Go To Jail” game to obtain the Peanut Butter Crackers.
If you want to you can win at “Table Football” to obtain “Big Nate’s Pratical Jokes” (NOTE: You don’t have to play Table Football, but you do need to win Go To Jail). Go back outside and travel right to reach “Puffin Point”.
Go right and climb up the Lighthouse. On the very top of the light house is a comic frame, grab it. You now have collected all the comic frames. Click on your Inventory, then examine the Big Nate Comic. Arrange them so they spell: “Nine Three Zero Five” in between the strip. This is the order they are in (going from left to right, top first, then the bottom):
- Uh… excuse me… | Hm?
- I’m new here, and… um… I’m sort of lost. | Ah! Nate Wright at your service, dude! Where do you need to go?
- I’m trying to find the art room. | Art room! Gotcha! Stand here!
- Uh… here? | Right there! And don’t move!
- But… | Klik!
- FOOOMM!
- Well? | You overshot. He reached the nurse’s office.
- Dang! | …Which is probably a good place for him to end up.
You have formed the Big Nate Comic! Now exit the comic strip. Ask Mr. Rosa, the man who is painting, if you can look through the telescope. Look through the telescope and you’ll see that to your right, there is a scroll under a rock. Exit the telescope.
To the left of the lighthouse is an old picture floating around in the wind. Try and grab it by jumping around starting at the lighthouse ladder (NOTE: This might take a couple of tries to get it). Once you have collected the photo, head back to Main Street by going left.
Keep going left, left, left, until you reach the Photo Studio building (the large camera). Enter the building. On the left there is the ‘School Picture Guy’, he has a golden scuba suit that he will trade, for a photo. Swap the photo for the suit to obtain a new item – “Scuba Gear”. Now leave the building.
Walk left and enter the building “Klassic Komix”. Talk to Gordie (the shopkeeper) again, and tell him you found his comic. He will be so glad that he will let you keep the comic and let you have a “Stale Pack of Gum” as a prize. Exit the building and go right.
Make your way back to Puffin Point, so go right, right, right, right…until you reach it. Head right past the lighthouse and talk to Cap’n Salty. He needs your help to rescue the lobster trap from under the water. Go into your Inventory and put on the scuba gear.
Jump off the dock and dive down. Swim all the way to right until you can’t go any futher, then swim down until you reach the lobster trap. Pick it up and wait until your oxygen runs out. Once you are at the start swim up. Talk to Cap’n Salty to obtain two items - ”Lobster “and the “Jet Ski Keys”.
Jump on the skis on your right and ride away. Big Nate will challenge you to see who can get there first. The best way to beat him is to try keep your computer’s mouse as far to the right side as you can and to move farther and gain some distance from him. Once you arrive at the rocks (it’s called “Sealsaw Rock on the Map) jump on the tilting, seesaw-like rock. Push both of the cute seals to the left side of the rock.
Now you can jump down and take the scroll. The scroll is the “Map to Capsule”. Ride back to Puffin Point. Climb back up the lighthouse to the light. Go to your Inventory, select the “Lobster” item card, and click “Use” to your lobster to turn the light around. It will scare away the bird at the top of the school bell. Jump off the lighthouse and go left.
Go left to the Playground. The capsule is here but it is guarded by the girls. Go left, enter the school building, and jump up to the second floor. Run left to the lockers and click on one spilling with papers. Enter the locker code found on the comic – 9305.
Once the locker empties itself, click on the papers again. You will find the “School Blueprint”. If you examine it you will see that there is a secret room. Now the only way to move the girls is to ring the bell, but the bell is missing its clapper. The bell clapper is hidden in the secret room.
To get to the secret room you have to go through the detention room. To enter the Detention room stand outside the detention room door and chew on the gum by going to your Inventory, selecting the item card “Pack of Stale Gum”, and clicking the “Use” button. The teacher, Mrs. Godfrey, will take you inside. The secret room is through the filing cabinets.
Use the stink bomb to move the teacher. Go to the right and click on the filing cabinets. It will reveal a hidden ladder. Then go down. Once you’re down at the bottom turn on the power by clicking on the power lever. On the right above the work bench is a bronze bell clapper.
Jump up and grab it to obtain an item – “Bell Clapper”. Make your way back up the stairs and outside of the school. Go to the top of the school, use the bell clapper, and ring the bell. The girls will now leave their place.
Go to the Playground and stand between the two posts, between the monkey bars and the logs. Open your items and use the Peanut Butter Crackers. The dog will then dig a hole, showing the time capsule hidden underneath. Click on the hole and pull the capsule from it. Click the lock to open it.
Watch the dialogue between Big Nate and his friend Jenny, who convinces Nate to use the valuable pearl inside the capsule to save the school even though he doesn’t really want to. When the newspaper (called “The Clam Courier”) appears, click close at the top-right corner of the gamescreen. You will then be confronted by the teacher who will award you with the Big Nate Island medallion and credits to spend at the Poptropica Store!
Congratulations! You’ve completed Big Nate Island’s quest. If you are looking for more things to do, take a ride in the blimp for a new adventure on another island. Or check out the multiplayer rooms located on Main Street, where you can chat and battle with other Poptropicans!

how do you get rid of the sea gull?!
Scary Tomato: It’s mentioned in the guide. You use the lobster to turn the light around, which scares the bird away.

Everyone keeps saying big nate was really easy, but I wouldn’t say that. you can’t really complete it in half an hour, trust me. it takes AT LEAST AN HOUR it usually takes me a loooooong time to do it because sometimes i just get stuck because i dunno what to do. for example i didn’t see the klassic komix shop lol! you can say its easy now you complted it (duh) but im sure that everyone thinks the same thing when trying to beat the island for the 1st time – “Big Nate is soooooo hard!!!” if it wasn’t no-one would come here (unless you love boasting for how “smart” you are).
Scary Tomato: LOL – some people might find it hard at first, yes; but some don’t. Everyone’s different.
By: mousy 2 on February 13, 2009
at 10:27 pm
for me it was hard at first becase i could’nt win the ski race whith nate but i did after 1 hour

at 12:04 am
Scary tomato I don’t mean to brag but it was pretty simple for me.Plus I thought you had to beatthe football games. P.S I was 3rd to beat it
Scary Tomato: You get a special book for winning Table Football but it’s not required. Also, no offense, but there’s no proof for who beats it 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on.
By: sonic427 on February 14, 2009

I think he means it took him only 3 tries to beat it.
By: Fearless Paw on February 24, 2009

if i played big nate three times nonstop it would take me 1 and half hours

Where is the gum??????
Codien: You have to get all the comic frames and give it to the guy in Klassic Komix. Read!

By: Gabby on February 14, 2009

I don’t get it. I gave the man the full comic 3 times and he said thank you but he didn’t give me anything in return.
Scary Tomato: Check your inventory for the pack of stale gum, which is what he should have given you.
By: This Random Happy Person on February 14, 2009
at 1:58 am
Um….. The Jet Ski guide thing doesn’t help for me
Codien: First try get to the lead, try keep ahead of him for as long as possible, to do this get to the front of the water, the objects will come at you in 2 second intervals so it should be easy to guess when they come.
By: Neat Hawk on February 14, 2009
at 2:33 am
where is the clapper for the bell?
Codien: In the secret room below the detention room, Please read.
By: Jasminrocks on February 14, 2009
at 3:08 am
were is the bomb?
Codien: You have to make it in the Science Lab, Please read.

By: Neat Whale on February 14, 2009

Nor did they include Nate’s sister.
Oh, and 4 some reason, i feel like im the only one who reads the big nate comics.

I can’t find the one on the lighthouse!!??

By: blub blub on February 14, 2009
at 4:26 am
hey when i ty to get on the jet ski it says i dont see any reason to cruise around the open sea now
Codien: You have to look throught the telescope on the lighthouse first, and look at the map under the rock.
By: laney on February 14, 2009

I found it and completed Big nate! But I have 12 accounts… better get to work!

omg I cant click on the filing cabinet what do I do now????Oh ya how do you get the dog to follow you…I tried to get the dog with the penanut butter crackers but he just buries it…How do I get him/her to follow me???
Codien: What do you mean you can’t click on them, is it that the teacher stops you, if so use the stink bomb.
You dont need the dog to follow you, the dog is so you can dig up the capsule. Please Read!

I tryed to use the lobster to scare away the bird but it wouldn’t let me. So where do I have to stand to scare the bird away.

at 6:25 am

I’m sorry that happened. I don’t know what to do except this: make sure you have clicked on the bottom FILE cabnet! the one that is open WILL NOT HELP YOU!!!! If you did and it still does the exact same thing,Read the guide over and make sure you didn’t skip anything you need to do.

my stink bomb disaperred before i got to use it does that mean i cant finish the game ?
Scary Tomato: Is it sitting on the floor of the detention room? If it is, then don’t worry about it and just go on with the quest. If it isn’t, try making it again and re-doing that part (see the guide if you need help).
By: rhiana on February 14, 2009

the keys to the the map and the jet ski keys dissapeared out of my inventory so i can’t finish the quest!! What do i do?????

By: rowenafan608 on February 14, 2009
at 12:08 pm
when i ask the captain he just says “thanks matey” and there is no lobster trap underwater. I’m sorry.
Scary Tomato: He only says thanks after you give him his lobster trap, which means you have already given it to him. You should now have a Lobster in your inventory.
By: rowenafan608 on February 14, 2009
at 12:19 pm
I cannot ride on the boat because they say there is no reason to cruise in the open seas right now!Help me
Codien: Please read the guide closely. You have to look through the telescope on top of the lighthouse and spot the map underneath the rock. Then you will have a reason to go boating.
By: Sean on February 14, 2009
at 12:26 pm
i do but i do not have the keys. i don’t get why though…
Scary Tomato: Just try using the jet skis to see if you can do it without the keys. If you can, don’t worry about the keys.
By: rowenafan608 on February 14, 2009
at 12:27 pm
Okay I got to the part where the dog digs and you can see the capsule but when I click on it it won’t come out! Do i need to do something first?
Scary Tomato: No, you’re on the right track. After the dog digs a hole to reveal the capsule, it will bring a close-up of it. Click and hold the capsule chest to take it out, and click the lock to open it.
By: bbzebra on February 14, 2009

I finished it yesterday and the seagull part was hard so i had to go look up on google i finally got it but it took awhile so yipee PS wen does tht new island com out? i no it comes out in spring but i wanna know the real date

I sort of hate Big Nate island because it is proof that Poptropica is totally selling out. I have played Poptropica since it was new, and I have watched with horror as it slowly descended into the cavernous depths of the cheap, advertisment-gaming world.
The guide was a big help though. Thnx 4 the good advice!

Also, I can’t get the locker to open. When I click on it, my person says “I don’t know the combination.” I do!!! It’s 9305! Please Help Me!!!!
Codien: You need to get all the comic frames first, join them together, then on the comic it will show you the combination. It will let you open it now.
By: Happy Hippo on February 15, 2009

Hi people!I feel REALLY dumb asking this, but how do you get the time capsule?I already tried the place you guys told me to in the guide, and I/the dog dug about 7 holes near/around/on the place.Please don`t tell me ‘to read the guide over again.’
Appreciate the help,
~Jazz
P.S.GREAT work Codien and Scary Tomato!!!
Codien: Make sure you place the cracker on the ground where the girls were. The capsule is i little to the right though but in between the two poles.

Hi,
I have a problem. When I get to the lighthouse, I turned the light to the seagull & he went away. I went to the bell & put the bell clapper back in & I was supposed to just go right to the jet ski to get the map of the treasure capsule. Now when I try to get on the jet skis my Poptropican says “I don’t see any reason to cruise around the open seas right now”.. is there any way I can fix my mistake? Thanks– this is driving me nuts!
Scary Tomato: Yes. All you have to do is climb up the lighthouse at Puffin Point and look through the telescope. Make sure your character notices something under a rock, which will give them a reason to go jet skiing. For more details read the guide up at the top.

By: Hot Ice on February 16, 2009
at 1:44 am
aicul434: It dosen’t really matter which way you move the seals. They’ll both balance it to one side, and you can come around on either side to obtain the paper.
It works in real life-just put something under a two-pan weight, then put something heavy on one pan. It works both ways!
By: Fearless Paw on February 16, 2009
at 1:45 am
No, the paper is slanted to the right, and the rock is more flat to the right, and will only make it impossible to do it until you do it onto the left.

By: comical spinner on February 16, 2009
at 4:47 am
what happens if you shift the seals to the left side?
Scary Tomato: They’ll just move to the left. Nothing special, but the point of moving them to the right is to take the map, so that’s why you need to shift them.
By: comical spinner on February 16, 2009
at 4:50 am

Hi
When I do the comic strip I do it exactly like the guide says but it still says that I don’t know the comb when I do! How do you make the comic strips stick together?
Scary Tomato: Are the comic frames stuck together to form the complete comic? All you have to do is click and drag each piece to the right locations and they’ll stick together. Try again!
By: SabrinaStarr52 on February 16, 2009
at 11:20 am
i cant find where to put the peanut butter crackers! pleas help me and dont tell me to look at the guide cuzz it doesn’t help!!!!!!!!!
Scary Tomato: The guide does tell you the answer to what you’re asking. You’re not reading carefully. Use the crackers where the girls were standing a while ago, in between the 2 posts on the Playground floor.

i have a question for poptropica.com
if you finish every single island and get a medallion what happens? like i mean, like at the end of poptropica do you get a prize or something when you finish the islands.
oh and by the way is there going to be an end of poptropica.com cuz if there is i’m soooooooooooooooooo gonna cry my head of!
Codien: There is no special medal because there is always more islands coming out. And Poptropica will keep making islands, until they stop making the game.
Scary Tomato: I don’t think Poptropica is planning to close. Don’t worry.
By: Rachel on February 17, 2009
at 2:50 am
Rachel: This is only a blog created by other poptropica fans. They are not
the creators of poptropica.com.
I myself can tell you that you do not get anything other than satasfaction, medals, and boredom (since there are no more islands to solve), as I have completed all the islands.
Poptropica probably will continue on. As you’re most probably aware, new quests are always coming out.

Dear S.T., Smockers, and Codien,
I’ve tried to get the comic piece that you said was on the lighthouse on the playground, and it wasn’t there. I tried to get it on both of my characters, ‘Hyper Hammer’ and ‘Crazy Hawk,’ and it didn’t work! Even though I don’t have all the pieces, I can still see what the combination says, 9-3-0-5. And, on one of my characters, I made a stink bomb, and the next day, it wasn’t there! Scary Tomato, Smockers, or Codien, waht do you think I should do? Sincerely,
PhOTO96
Codien: The only thing you could do is send your characters details (User/Pass) to poptropicahelpblog@gmail.com
We will get the items for you.
By: PhOTO96 on February 17, 2009
at 7:45 am
OMG!!!! How do i get around that bird!!!!! It is impossible!!!
Codien: You don’t. You use the light on the light house to scare it of. Read some of the other comment questions. It will be answered many times. :p

I want to go on the Jet Skis, but I don’t know why it doesn’t allow me!! My character just says:
I don’t see any reason to cruise around the open sea right now.
Codien, Smockers, Scary Tomato?? What should I do?
Scary Tomato: Look through the telescope on top of Puffin Point’s lighthouse and have your character notice the scroll hidden under a rock.
By: Crazy Bubbles on February 18, 2009

Where is the power switch? I keep falling and not being able to get up! Please help!
Poptroicagal: To make the stink bomb, click on the test tubes. Then, take the blue capsule, pour some in, and do the same with the yellow. Then, turn the dial on the bottom to 4. The rest will happen!
Scary Tomato: It’s below the stairs in the secret room.

at 9:12 am
I love this game! I’ve been playing Poptropica from the beginning and have never had a problem with it until now. When Spitsy digs up the time capsule I can zoom in on it, but when I click on it I can’t pick it up. I’ve tried leaving the game and reentering but it doesn’t work. I have to have the dog dig it up again and the same thing happens. Help please!
Scary Tomato: Try clicking and DRAGGING it out. Hope that works.
By: lilurchins on February 18, 2009
at 10:24 am
and after you drag it, click on it.
By: Lina on March 8, 2009
at 8:39 am
Yeah I have the same problem until I notice you have to click and drag the same time.
By: Sunny on January 6, 2010
at 8:07 pm
I have the same problem as some other people where the sailor hasnt given me the keys just the lobster (I have tried logging off, diving again, refreshing, EVERYTHING!!!)
Can you pleease help ASAP as it is really bugging me!!!
Thanks
Dudeette
Scary Tomato: Try seeing if you can use the skis even without the keys. If not, go diving again to see if this time they will allow you to have the keys.

Hey guys! I found an awesome cheat! I call it ” Underwater Surprise!” I figured it out on Big Nate Island. Scary Tomato, Codien and Smockers, I don’t know if you have ever done this before, but this is how it goes:
1. Put on your suit with the helmet and go to Puffin Point
2.Go underwater
3. Go to the little suitcase containing your items and click take off for the suit!
THERE! YOU ARE SWIMMING UNDERWATER WITHOUT A HELMET!

When I Click on the paper in Nate’s Locker it says I Don’t Know the Comatation
Scary Tomato: You’ll need to piece together the whole comic strip first. Show it to the guy at Klassic Komix and then return to the locker.

Hi,
I tried to finish Big Nate Island, but I had to leave right when I put down the stinkbomb. I tried to get on later, clicked on the file cabenit, but nothing happened. So I went out of detention and decided to try later. But then when I looked at my inventory, the stink bomb wasn’t there and I thought it would still be there. So I chewed the gum again and went in detention. the stink bomb wasn’t there.
I DID go back there on another account and did beat the game, but I wish that I could beat it on my main poptropica person.
If there’s anyway anyone could help, PLEASE do!
bye.
Scary Tomato: Make a new stink bomb in the science lab. Then place it on the detention room floor. Go back and make sure you have all the comic frames, and assemble them together. Give it to the Klassic Komix guy for the gum. Also, open Big Nate’s locker to get the school blueprints to be able to open the file cabinet. For more info, see the guide above. I hope this helps!

Hullo again,
Well, it won’t let me make another stink bomb! that’s the main problem…
Please!! PLEASE PLEASE is there a way to make one?
Scary Tomato: Are you sure it’s not already used in the detention room’s floor?

I played BIG NATE the day it came out, so I didn’t use the guide. I beat it and I found it easy, and, a little challaging. It was great fun. I paticuly liked the jet-ski race. I won it on my 1st try! Same with the games in that cubby-house thing. I also enjoyed scuba-diving. Oh, and making that stink bomb was great too! Although I wish u could customise the BIG NATE caricters as well! All in all it was great fun! I checked out this guide wen I saw it and I think u covered everything! Any1 who HASN’T played it must play BIG NATE NOW!!!Can’t wait 4 ASTRO KNIGHTS 2 come out!!!
P.S Scary Tomato,Codien and Smockers ur guides r DA BOMB!!!!!
Keep up the good work!

I finished it at around 8 minutes only,yahoo!
By: scott on February 28, 2009
at 5:41 pm
EIGHT MINUTES? How is that possible? Iy takes that long to go back and forth in between places.
Maybe you meant 80 minutes?
Scary Tomato: Eight minutes is fast, but it’s probably possible if you can move your cursor really quickly and if loading doesn’t take a long time.

Personally, I found Big Nate Island rather simple. It wasn’t very challenging… I was hoping for something a little harder. Oh well. However, I think AstroKnights Island will be more challenging!

At my school last semester, I had Buisness Keyboarding (aka learning how to type =D). Once we were done, we’d get free time on the Internet. Since this was from Funbrain, we were allowed to use it! After that, it’s everyone getting on. Everyone was asking me how to beat things, and sometimes when I couldn’t remember, I’d look on random sites (I’ve been on Pop. since it came out lolz). This is the most helpful and detailed one (not to mention well organized and easy) that there was! Thanks soo much!

Scary Tomato: If you followed the directions above in order, you’d know what to do – you have to open Nate’s locker first to get the school blueprints.

I have only just finished Super Power Island and Spy island and now I’m up to Big Nate.
All your other guides really helped me out. I found 24 Carrot Island really hard but then when I finished it I’m like OMG!HOW COULD I HAVE THOUGHT THAT WAS HARD!Cuz I was stuck on it for 2 years and I didnt know what to do next and then I found the guide…
I try to figure out the Island by-myself but when I’m stuck I look up for the guide and the first one I usually click is the one done by you!
sooo…
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH FOR ALL THE GUIDES!!!

That’s because there isn’t a no gum rule there. Duh!

there’s a sign in the school that says “N o Gum Chewing” but my character chews gum. I thought that was sort of ironic. xD along with that one girl. haha

I’m stuck! Nate won’t follow me to Puffin Point, so I can’t jet-ski. When I talk to him on the playground, he says “Hey, what’s the hurry to find the time capsule? Let’s take a break and have some fun!” I’ve tried logging out and logging back in, but it didn’t work. Please help!!!!!
Hijuyo: Nate won’t be at Puffin Point until you click to ride the jetski. Once you do that, he will suddenly appear out of nowhere and run towards you.

I’m stuck!!! How come when I chewed the gum at school the teacher/principal/whoever she is would not come out? I tried to chew the gum many times. Then, I tried to go inside the detention room but then my character refused. What should I do? I really wanna complete Big Nate because I already completed all the other islands. Please help!
Hijuyo: Make sure you have completed all the other steps leading up to this part. You may be missing something, and you can’t enter the detention room until you have done everything you should first.
By: Quick Kid on March 23, 2011

I don’t know if this is a glitch or not. use the pink pop gum from the poptropica store and blow bubbles. Nothing happens. Use the gum from the Big Nate Inventory (if you have the gum) and something will happen.

Has she gotten the blueprint of the school from Nate’s locker? Because without it, you wouldn’t know there is a secret passage in the cabinet.
