Counting down the seconds to Mystery Train

If you've been following the Mystery Train countdown clock on the Poptropica homepage, you've probably noticed that it's set to go at a rather unusual time: 21 minutes past the hour. In fact, here at Poptropica headquarters, Mystery Train will be launching at 4:21 PM on Friday. Can you guess why?

Go ahead, try to guess. Take a second away from the computer.

Okay, ready?

The time is in honor of two things. 4, because it's our 4th birthday, and 21, because this is our 21st Island.

Now that you've solved that mystery, you're ready to take a ride on the Mystery Train! Poptropica Members will be able to play all of Mystery Train this Friday. Non-Members will be able to play the first part of the adventure in advance of Mystery Train's public launch in October.
