CP on the DS
I am very excited to be the first to let you know about a very special project we’ve been working on!
Ever since Club Penguin was launched, many of you have been asking and talking about a DS game and we’ve been listening. Here’s a bit of what you can look forward to:

I can’t get into too much detail but you might be wondering about the name ‘Elite Penguin Force’. In the DS game you take on a special role as part of the Elite Penguin Force and solve mysteries that even Secret Agents don’t know about!
That’s just the start! You’ll also be able to play some of your favorite mini games and earn coins and other rewards that can be uploaded into your Penguin account!
I’ll have more info in the coming months. Were hoping to have the game done by this holiday season so you’ll only have to wait a few more months!
New Features Are Out
The new features are out, and there are a lot more than expected. I will go through all the new updates. If I find anymore, I will post them.
Server Selection:
- When logging in to Club Penguin it will say “Logging in (your penguin name)”
- Selecting servers is now based on where you and your buddies visit the most.
- If you choose the more servers option, you will see the servers in alphabetical order. This should make it easier for everyone to find servers.
Penguin Mail:
- If you click the mail button on the top left of your screen you will be able to use a whole differnt system of sending cards.
- The first thing you should do is look at the Penguin Mail postcard. You will be able to get a free item, it is a Blue Mailbag. Here is a picture (click it for full size):
- To see your buddy requests, instead of clicking the mail button, you have to click what used to be the postcard button.
- When sending your people postcards, you will see a book like this. There are also new postcards (click it for full size):
Here is what it looks like when sending a postcard to someone (click for full size).

Player Card Update:
- When you open your player card, your items will fade on to your penguin. This also happens when you put on new items.
- To change your items you will select a tab at the bottom of your inventory and choose your items based on their type. Here is a picture (click it for full size):
Igloo Upgrade:
- With the igloo upgrade, you now have a background in your igloo instead of a blank white screen. Unfortuantely you cannot walk in the outside area.
- When you edit your igloo it is also differnt, here is a picture:
Miscellaneous Updates:
- You can now find your spy phone above your map instead of on your player card.
- When a new buddy comes on, a message prompts you that they logged on. Here is a picture:

- When looking for an igloo on a map, you will now see a selection like this (click for full size):
- If you try to get an item you already have, it will automatically tell you that you have it instead of asking if you want it or not.
- You are allowed to have over 100 buddies.
- There is a green puffle at the Ice Rink.
Make a comment saying what your favorite update is, you least favorite and what else you think should be done.
I don’t really like the new features. I prefer the old login method. Penguin Mail makes it look like I have buddy requests all the time, it’s upsetting that we cant walk in the open part of our igloo, I don’t like the spy phone icon (it makes the game look too cluttered), the player card inventory system is okay, but it could be better. I don’t like how the green puffle doesn’t let us play Hockey.

A New Game! Sneak Peek
Billybob said this on the main blog:
A couple weeks ago I promised I would post a few more summer sneak peeks! I was able to get a bit of info on a new project the team is working on for the end of the month. I think you’re going to like it–especially if you’re into music! It’s a new game–but I don’t want to give away too much, but I was able to get some concept art from the team. Here it is. As always, we love to hear what you think!
