Hopefully you do a video on VMK - Virtual Magic Kingdom, which was Disney's OFFICIAL, direct competition to Club Penguin. It was literally the exact same game, a flash based social hub with minigames meant for an audience of kids but everything was Disneyland theme'd. Funnily enough, Disney actually bought Club Penguin 9 months before shutting down VMK in 2007, which screams very obviously that the reason they shut it down was to focus on Club Penguin. Feel like that would be an important piece to the Club Penguin story and why Disney did the things they did with Club Penguin.

This is the first game I truly experienced that you covered here. As a part of the well known "flash generation", who also grew without a console up until 2011, I LOVED that game as a kid, kinda obsessed with it and the cute puffles and the vegetarian polar bear... but I noticed the game started to have a bit of a downfall when stuff that used to be free became paid content, which even my 13 year old me could understand as unfair. I'm sure after that point I moved to Wii, then 3DS, then the abyss who is LoL and Mobile, then recovered. It's just a great place where people was just ridiculous and the minigames creative. I wouldn't say is MMO game, not RPG in the current meaning, but a Multiplayer Online and OG definition of Role-Play Game, and that made the game unique.

hey, i had the same experience, fall 2008 - january 2010 played club penguin and flash games on kongregate almost every day, got a console in late 2010 (modded nintendo ds) then a wii in 2012 but i bricked the wii by trying to mod it. unbricked it in 2018-19. Club penguin was good until they shoved the membership in your face. Coming from romania it was way too expensive at the time, and I found accounts on the web. Karma is a bitch cause my account got leaked and hacked too due to using CP Trainer. Yahoo Messenger and Roblox at the time were very nice. Sonic Adeventure DX from a friend's CD etc. I used to have a folder full of cartoon images and wallpapers but I lost it.

I'm really hopeful that Box Critters does well. The same creator behind both, a similar vibe to both, but now Lance Priebe/Rocket Snail has WAY more experience making games and can make Box Critters the best product possible without the Disney "agenda" forcing crossovers into the game every other month and the absolute need to profit constantly. If Box Critters can become the Club Penguin 2 that never was, I'll be very happy. We need to honor Club Penguin's legacy in some way, and with fan run private servers being controversial to say the least, Box Critters may be the best way to do that.

You have a strong point about how the game stopped innovating. This is especially true in terms of the minigames. Why could Disney not come up with new tracks in Cart Surfer or new areas for the Ice Fish minigame.
@Azurethewolf1689 ай бұрын
Yeah. You can tell how bad it is since before 2011, club penguin was always adding new rooms and minigames to play. After 2011 though, only 4 minigames were added: card jitsu snow (which was in production way back in 2010), smoothie smash, spy drills (basically a replacement to PSA missions) and sound studio (a more modern version of DJ3K). None of these minigames besides card jitsu snow were all that memorable, and snow is only remembered because of the huge build up towards it and the storyline it had. It seems that the team lost the magic of what made the minigames fun, being able to replay them and be simple to understand. It would’ve been nice if they just added new levels or areas to minigames, they did for puffle launch and aqua grabber, why not more? Why not instead of removing minigames? Just revamp them?
@Azurethewolf1689 ай бұрын
I also always wondered why Disney left such huge spaces of the map open, they could’ve added some cool areas instead of removing old stuff and just adding more boring wilderness. I’m sure if they innovated and kept adding new things, people wouldn’t leave that fast. It would’ve been cool seeing the whole map developed rather than just being mostly the exact same after 2011.

Me loving Club Penguin as a kid is probably the reason I'm so attached to this other game called Sky. The game is simple as Club Penguin was, with the feature of customizing your avatar and the main feature of the game being a social MMO. These two share those feats, alongside some kind of big world but that is also built by rooms in some way. Club Penguin was really important to me in my childhood and seeing how it fell down makes me rather sad.

I really enjoyed the heck out of Club Penguin but I noticed they eventually locked more and more content behind membership even old minigames like the jetpack one. I clearly remembered I was able to play that from start to finish but when I came to to play it again sometime later, they locked the rest of the levels. As a kid back then, my parents do not really trust purchasing membership online. So I was stuck waddling around and slowly losing more stuff to do and eventually moved on to Runescape.

I just played the mini-games a lot and took care of puffles. I also played the Wii game. And to me, that felt pretty similar to how I played the PC game. But since I never used the social aspect for the PC game, I quit after about a year or year and a half. I'm surprised pre-teen me spent so long in Club Penguin without doing anything social.

I loved playing Club Penguin as a kid, and to be honest, I was a little obsessed with it. So when it shut down, even though I hadn't played it a lot in the few years prior, I was still very upset about it. It felt like I had lost a part of my childhood. When they launched Club Penguin Island, I didn't have a mobile device that supported the game, so I was unable to play it, but eventually it released on PC. When I eventually tried it, I realized how stripped down the free to play experience was compared to the original game. It felt like it was a cash grab for Disney to try to squeeze all they could from the IP. You could essentially only walk around and chat. Though closer to the shut down of the game, they had unlocked more features for the free to play players, but at that point they had alienated most of their fanbase already. Currently I play on some private servers from time to time, but it doesn't entirely feel like it's the same. This is likely because they are essentially just hosting the original game, it feels like it's frozen in time, though maybe with some small updates here and there. Also, the playerbase is not as big as it used to, so it can be hard to fully enjoy parts of the game that required interactions with other players.
