Penguin Level

Penguin Level, or simply level, is a measurement of progress used in Club Penguin Island. All players start at level 0 and can increase their level by gaining rank, which is received in the form of XP (short for experience) from quests. The player's level is the sum of their rank for each quest-giving character. For instance, if a player's Aunt Arctic rank is 2, Rockhopper rank is 3, and Rookie rank is 1, the penguin's level is 6 (2 + 3 + 1).

Currently, the highest possible level is 21. Prior to the 1.4.0 update it was 18, prior to 1.3.0 it was 15, and prior to 1.2.0 it was 12.

Rank
In order to increase rank, players must complete either Daily Challenges or adventures, which yield XP. Marble Hunt and Ink or Swim also yield varying amounts of XP for all participants. After a player receives a certain amount of XP, they raise in rank. After they raise in rank, they also raise in level.

The character the daily challenge is associated with or adventure is given by determines which color of XP the player receives. For instance, completing the adventure "Leaky Landing", given by Aunt Arctic, yields green XP, as does the Daily Challenge "Good Altitude", which is labeled with Aunt Arctic's face. Daily Challenges always yield 20 XP each, while the amount from adventures varies. Additionally, adventures only yield XP the first time they are played, and replaying will not yield XP again. Aunt Arctic XP, Rockhopper XP, and Rookie XP are each received from completing adventures and daily challenges received from said characters. Currently, the highest possible rank for Aunt Arctic and Rockhopper are each 9, while for Rookie, it is 3.

Prior to the 1.2.0 update, the highest for Aunt Arctic was 6, and prior to 1.3.0, the highest for Rockhopper was 6 as well.

As of the 1.0.1 update, unlocked adventures are now shown along with rewards, although they are still unlocked by increase in rank, and are independent of levels.

XP progression

 * XP gain is mostly exponential, and as such, higher ranks require greater or equal amounts of XP than previous ranks. Effectively, 8690 XP total is required to reach the current maximum level of 21.

Adventure XP requirements and rewards

 * Adventures require the player has a certain rank or higher in order to play.

Rockhopper

 * As of the 1.0.1 update, Bottled Maps requires Aunt Arctic rank 1 to be unlocked, instead of Rockhopper rank. Prior to the update, it instead required Rockhopper rank 1.

Rewards
Leveling up yields various rewards, which always include blueprints and fabrics, and can also include decals, emojis, gear, party supplies sold in shops, and, as of the 1.2.0 update, tubes. These are received in themed "packs".
