Club Penguin Island (formerly referred to as Project: Super Secret until November 2016) is a mobile-based, massively multiplayer online role-playing game which will arrive worldwide in March 2017. It is currently available in the Australia, New Zealand and Canada App Store and Google Play store. The game will replace Club Penguin as of March 29, 2017.

Pre-beta ("Project: Super Secret")
Club Penguin Island was first mentioned in 2014 under the codename Project: Super Secret by Spike Hike and described as the "next big thing for CP and beyond". Many sneak peek videos and pictures were released pertaining to the project, beginning in June 2015.

Pre-registration
On November 17, 2016, Project: Super Secret was officially revealed by Megg on the What's New Blog and the official website for Club Penguin Island was released. Here, players can pre-register their usernames for when the new game releases.

Pre-registering yields a Beta Hat, a set of six emojis, and 100 coins. Additionally, players have the option of connecting their Club Penguin usernames for use in Club Penguin Island. If this is done, pre-registering will also yield an Alumni Jacket, with a number on the back displaying how many years the connected Club Penguin account has existed.

According to issue #564 of the Club Penguin Times, the pre-registration period would end on February 15, 2017. However, issue #565 stated that it would end on February 16, 2017, instead.

The pre-registration period was extended and will end on March 28, 2017, as informed by the post of the 7th episode of Island Insider, on the What's New Blog.

Beta
Starting on November 18, 2016, selected players received invitations for the closed beta via email, which was only available to be played on iOS devices. On December 6, 2016, the beta test period came to an end, and all the players who were part of it will be able to keep their progress in the final game.

Release in Australia and New Zealand
According to a blog post from December 8, 2016 on the What's New Blog, the game would be "coming soon to Australia and New Zealand" for iOS and Android devices.

The game was later released in Australia and New Zealand on December 15, 2016.

Release in Canada
The game was made available in Canada on January 13, 2017, exclusively for iOS devices. It was formally announced on the same day on the What's New Blog.

Worldwide release
The game will be available worldwide for both iOS and Android devices in March 2017, as announced by a blog post from January 27, 2017, on the What's New Blog.

Clothing
A key feature in Club Penguin Island is the ability to create custom clothing items using a feature called the Clothing Customizer, using a blueprint as a base and fabrics and/or decals as optional design elements.

Penguin Level
Penguin Level is a measurement of player progress that can be earned by completing Adventures and Daily Challenges, mentioned below. Every time a player reaches a new level, they receive a reward in the form of a pack, containing various items and new unlockable material. There are currently up to 12 levels in the game.

Adventures
Mascots offer the player quests to complete, who reward them with coins, XP, and sometimes items upon completion. Currently Aunt Arctic offers 5 adventures and Rockhopper offers 10. A membership is required for all adventures except Aunt Arctic's first, "Ep. 1 - Leaky Landing", which is the introduction to the game. A certain rank is also required for each mascot's adventures: see Aunt Arctic's adventures here and Rockhopper's here. All adventures, except for "Ep. 1 - Leaky Landing", can be replayed after originally completed, but no reward will be given.

Daily Challenges
Daily Challenges are tasks available every 24 hours (refreshing at midnight in PST) that the player can complete to earn coins and XP. There are always four different challenges available each day. There are two types of challenges: 'solo', which can be completed by one player alone, and 'community', which requires actions from other players as well. All four challenges are always available to be completed by members; the amount available to non-members varies each day, but there will always be at least one available.

Party Supplies
Party Supplies are consumable items that can be bought at shops by members (either at the Welcome Shop, Disney Shop, Foodtrekker, SS Convenience, or Deep Sea Shop), and can be used, each with varying effects.

Gear
Gear is a type of item that members can use to perform various actions.

Collectibles
Scattered throughout the island are collectible items that can be exchanged for coins at the Beacon Boardwalk. Each collectible has a certain coin exchange rate, location where they are available, amount available per area, and respawn time after collecting.

Quick Chat
Quick Chat is a feature that allows players to quickly communicate through using pre-defined phrases, as well as emojis. There are two different kinds of pre-defined phrases. The first kind are always available to use everywhere in the game, and are also accompanied by an animation that the player's penguin performs while the phrase is being said. The second kind are unique messages that are relative to the surroundings of the player's current location, but these do not produce an animation.

Emojis
Emojis are faces and symbols that can be used to communicate with other players as well as help complete adventures and daily challenges. Emojis are divided into several sets, with each set requiring the player to unlock them before they can be used. Emojis can be accessed from either the Quick Chat menu or regular chat. The player may also use multiple emojis at a time per chat bubble, unlike in Club Penguin.

Friends
Players can send other players friend requests to add each other to their friends list. To confirm a friend request, the invited player must select the orange check mark box next to the requesting player's username. A friend request can be sent by selecting the 'add friend' button on another player's player card. Besides tapping on a player's penguin in-game to pull up their player card in order to send a friend request, there is a search bar in the friends list that allows you to search for any player by their username.

Loading screen messages
While the game is loading, there is a screen that shows a tour guide emoji and above it, one of the following messages. Messages appear for several seconds before changing to a different one, and which message appears is completely random.

Worlds
Worlds are identical copies of the game that are used to hold many players at once. When the player logs into Club Penguin Island, they are automatically placed in the first open server, in alphabetical order. The world the player is in can be changed in the options menu of the game.
