Captain Crimson has returned to the CP Journey island with his trading shop – giving penguins the chance to purchase rare items with gems!
Discover our Ultimate Club Penguin Journey Guide for further game and stamp help!
In the latest CP Journey game update on Monday, September 16th, Captain Crimson returned to the island. He was last seen at the Pirate Party 2024, but has now arrived with his own trading shop that you can purchase rare items from!
The entrance to the Dark Cave can be found at the top of the Cove. Once you have entered the Dark Cave, board Captain Crimson’s trading ship, The Voyager.
A pop-up will appear and Captain Crimson will explain how his trading shop operates.
He explains that he has a special selection of rare treasures for you. This ‘pool’ of items (as described by the CPJ staff) have been classified as:
- Common items
- Uncommon items
- Rare items
- Legendary items
These items cannot be purchased with the standard coins, however, but instead the currency of Gems.
There are two ways that you can obtain gems:
- Earning Gems through completing Party Tasks during parties
- Purchasing Gems from Captain Crimson during one of his visits
You have the chance to re-roll and replace ONE item. But there is no going back on this re-reroll, so be careful when doing this.
You can purchase Gems directly from Captain Crimson. Select the ‘I want to buy gems’ option when you first speak to him.
NOTE: You can only purchase ONE of these gem packs per visit.
To access the Party Quests, click on your player card and then the Party Tasks button.
Here you can see which party tasks you have completed, as well as your current Gems total:
CP Journey staff revealed on their Discord that Captain Crimson will return to the island every 3-4 parties, giving players a chance to spend their hard-earned Gems on some of his items. This works out approximately every 3-4 months.
Captain Crimson’s current visit will last until Friday, September 20th. He will depart the island in the game update that will see Rockhopper and the Fair party begin.
With Rockhopper and the Fair party arriving this Friday, make sure you have joined the RPF Discord server to gain access to our mascot tracker.
Major General, Patroclus
