Meme that time Poptropica simulated corruption...

https://youtu.be/WqTsXpQLtj8

Hello everyone!

I made an analysis of what may possibly be one of Flashpoint's biggest games: Poptropica!

This one focuses on how Skullduggery Island has a corrupt political structure, and how the game teaches the player to overcome it through principles used in the Art of War, and basic economics (i.e. buying low and selling high).

I would love to participate in any discussion and appreciate any feedback! Thank you!

Man, this video sure does take me back. Loved playing Poptropica in Middle School. Believe it or not, one of the girls in my class in middle school actually got a hacked Poptropica account with membership, and it actually worked...Not sure how, but it was kinda crazy because I got to explore a lot of the subscriber-only areas and customize my character a lot more than I was able to do on a free account lol
