It should be added that the original Club Penguin Devs are creating something new! It's called Party Parrot World. It's basically Club Penguin but again without the Disney stuff. So I highly recommend you give the project some love if you want to see an official-ish successor to Club Penguin!

At one point they were making this game called Box Critters but of course they abandoned it only after 3 years. They are now working on this thing called moose and polo but it doesn't seem like they will stick to it. Honestly the creator Rocketsnail keeps abandoning projects and creating new ones so sad to say I don't think we will ever get a virtual world such as club penguin out of him ever again.

Wait, okay, can you elaborate please? I have been waiting for Box Critters for a long while now, that's a game that was being created by rocketsnail. Is PPW a new project of his, or is this the project of the other Club Penguin members? Is Box Critters abandoned? It would make sense, they haven't posted in like 6 months so...

It would’ve been cool seeing the island in the AS3 style, along with the bigger team they have allowing them to make better animations. I don’t get why they never did that and instead focused on endless puffle variants and horrible takeover parties.

@@Kyubeyisbestboy Club Penguin Rewritten shut down for a good reason tho. The owners illegally profited off ads on the game and one of the mods used that money to buy a house. In 2017, Disney asked the CPR admins to remove ads in order the game to still be running. However, they refused and lied to the community that they were in trouble for "using their domain." Not to mention that we had 2 security breaches and no one criticized the admins for having a privacy concern.
You missed captain rockhopper’s shenanigans. He has a diary in game which you can read and there are more interesting parties involving him. He also return to club penguin once every couple of weeks and you can see when he will come by looking through the telescope in the lighthouse, there’s a chance you’ll see his ship and over time the ship gets closer.

this game was a bigger part of my childhood than i realise. i remember being 7 years old when club penguin had its first birthday event and was begging my mum for a membership. watching a video on this brought back so much nostalgia and made me a little emotional, feels like a piece of my childhood is dead ya know. awesome video man, first time seeing the channel and will be on the look out for future vids :)
Man, I'm so happy to see the lore video of my favorite game. club penguin is a tragically underrated game, sadly. Thanks for making a video for this legend game. Oh, and I would like to add something to the lore too. At Future Party we learn that Rookie is the new Director. And Herbert is captured and frozen while Rookie is the director. Because of that it was once theorized that the rookie was actually the main villain and leaked information from the EPF to Herbert, then overthrew Herbert and took over as director of the EPF. One way or another, Rookie is a true madlad genius lmao.
My favourite obscure Club Penguin fact is that both the DS EPF games are canon and even have fancy operation titles as referenced in the newspaper during Blackout. They are called Operation: Robotomy and Operation: Herbert's Revenge respectively. Also today I learnt Scorn came back in CPI lmao
If you see it at a certain way….. Herbert won and the island remained in silence

I would sell my soul to go back and play og club penguin back in 2007. It was such a fun time and everything was so new and exciting
After the og Club Penguin shut down, I think there were two semi-illegal websites where you could play Club Penguin, and membership was free. I think it was Club Penguin Rewritten and some other website. I think they both eventually got taken down by Disney because of copyright and the websites removing the swear word ban (which caused them both to descend into a cuss and e-sex nightmare). I'm pretty sure they both came back after the Disney takedown, but I stopped playing on them in 2020, so my puffles are all probably dead.

I still play these websites called private servers. Club Penguin Online was shut down in 2020 because the owner was a child predator. Club Penguin Rewritten shut down in 2022 because the owners were illegally profiting off ads on the game. However the club Penguin fandom still don’t know the truth and believe that CPR did nothing wrong. Not to mention that Rewritten had 2 security breaches and no one in the fanbase every talked about it.

I once got banned from club penguin for saying santa isn't real
I left the island in 2014 I believe, for better opportunities. I tried returning in 2017 when it was about to close, but they didn't have my passport (login information was lost). I do miss the simpler times there
Honestly, kinda wanna see a Bin Weevils deep dive now
Disney bought Club Penguin for $700,000,000 only to shut it down not even a decade later. Remember this any time anyone tries to tell you about how CEOs and billionaires must be smart if they have so much money. Play Club Penguin Rewritten btw if you like Club Penguin, its pretty good.

Welp, I don't wanna be that guy, but actually Jeremy wouldn't be the stand-in for the North Pole, as penguins mostly live in the south, i.e. Antarctica & friends. Also it probably is supposed to be the south pole, cause there were only a couple of polar bears throughout Club Penguin's run, and considering those are native to the north, AND they are mentioned in-game to have come from a far away land, it would make sense for Jeremy to be the South Pole, and The Polar Bear's homeland to be the North. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk :P
I personally really loved Operation Blackout. I think that and all the ninja stuff was my favorite part of Club Penguin. Though, I DID NOT REMEMBER the part about Aunt Arctic being the mysterious guy giving us missions. I don’t think I even knew about the event. Hacking mini game thing brings back so much nostalgia, but WHAT DID I MISS?!
As a nonmember, I could only ever donate my coins to Rockhoppers charity events around Christmas, but it felt good as a kid to know I helped :)
Waited for a club penguin vid and here it is u never disappoint me
Club Penguin and Habbo Hotel just bring me happy memories from my childhood. However, while the users were what mae Habbo exciting, Club Penguin was amazing by itself. I remember being a kid and getting super happy bc I could finally be a secret agent, and then years laters becoming a complete ninja... not to mention seeing Herbert when he was locked up hibernating (the song that reveals he was released gave me chills...), and then SEEING HIM IN PERSON during Operation Blackout. Those were the years. I was never a premium member and yet I still had so much fun...
Club Penguin mini games are the equivalent as signing up for random experiments as a guinea pig for money 😮
So glad you made a Club Penguin video! I always love your videos and try to watch them when they come out. Keep up the great work! :)

My dad bought me a membership because he accidentally made me miss my flight from where he lived to where my mom lived. I got excited too, so in the game, I made my house with all the coins I had and got some cool decorations. I also was really good at cardjitsu even when I first started it.
This video brought back a lot of memories. Honestly had me a bit emotional :’(

this was such an entertaining and well edited video lol this was great
I absolutely love the dedication to calling the island "Jeremy" through the entire video.
my brothers and i LOVED Club Penguin back in the day, especially during Halloween and Christmas. I desperately wanted to decorate my igloo and enter it into the Halloween competition, but we weren't allowed memberships. My brothers and I at one point found someone had shared a membership penguin on some online forum, so we used that until someone eventually changed the password lmao

man, i really wish i played club penguin when i had the chance. now that it’s gone, i don’t think i’ll ever be able to witness the game in its prime. really sad.
I know for a fact there's gonna be a part two to this i don't know why I just feel it
The most annoying thing about club penguins “paying to get more rights” was after you got the items and wore them, once the membership expires, you can’t even use the items you bought cuz there locked
words can’t explain the soft spot i have for this game
thanks for the red circle at 5:06 btw. I was having a hard time seeing the fur. Glad to have someone who actually cares to help a homie out
I read the penguin superhero comic! I LOVED it. I was a weird little girl but the story was very fun and the drawings were honestly great! You unlocked a menory
This brings back so many memories. Man I wish I could go back to those good days.
Fact: Some stock music was used in Club Penguin, and one of the stock music composers with their music used was named "Jeremy Sherman", This might be why the Island looks like a Jeremy

Bro I was in Gen 1 of Club Penguin and had soooo much fun. I was about 10 at the time and it was like the first social media, I'd spend hours playing minigames, talking to other penguins, visiting igloos. I used to try to coordinate with friends to get on the same servers.

for me it was the missions. Just absolutely adored them and i still play them to this day. Best thing ever
I really liked the CYOA books. And the Plasma Gal & Shadow Guy comic was rad too.
some innacurscies puffles in CPI being the biggest one, the image you used and some concept art was released but the game shut down before the puffles were released, the sleep reminder at the end was good though
Club Penguin ending was such a sad time. So many people grew up playing it and hearing it was being shut down was heartbreaking.

Weapons so strong, noone could handle all of their power at once, When he passed away his sons swore to protect them bit the oldest was consumed by darkness and wanted to posses them. A Battle between brothers broke out but the oldest was struck down and banished to the underworld, peace returned and the younger brother hid the weapons but knowing his older brother's ambition for power, he placed a guardian to rotect them, and for fear from his own demise a map for an honest man to hide, that honest man was your father and the older brother is lord Garmadon and i need to find those weapons before he does
