Aqua Grabber is a game in Club Penguin that is only accessible through the Iceberg. In Aqua Grabber, you have to collect treasure from 2 different levels. The Aqua Grabber was originally created to retrieve parts from Rockhopper's sunken ship, the Migrator (which is now restored).

Objective of Game

  • Clam Waters: The objective of this level is to collect all the pearls in the clams and the "Main Treasure" (the giant pearl) shown in the map before players actually play. The Rare Treasure of the level is a black pearl. Also, an additional goal is to beat the level without losing a submarine.
  • Soda Seas: The objective is to get all the Cream Soda barrels, and then get the Main Treasure (the Amethyst). The rare treasure of this level is the Emerald. Also, an additional goal is to beat the level without losing a submarine.

In both levels, after you finish these objectives, you can enter it again and try to accomplish two challenges: the time challenge and the compressed air challenge, in which you move much faster, and a single hit can explode you.

Elements of gameplay

Air

If the player's submarine is getting too much water, they should look for these things because the player will lose if they let the submarine fill up with water:

  • Giant Bubbles
  • Bubble Blowers
  • Top of the sea
  • Air Pockets
  • Pink Puffle (if you brought one)

Dangers

If any thing hits players (except the shells), these things will happen :

  • Makes you move to another side.
  • Makes water come into the Aqua Grabber.

Areas

Creatures & Items

Fluffy the Fish.
The Mullet.
The Shell.
Big Bertha.
Puffer Fish.
The Giant Squid in the Penguin Times.

After Aqua Grabber was updated for the third time, Big Bertha appeared to the direct left of where the treasure chest originally lay.

The Mullet will be found after or when players hold the treasure chest or Grand Pearl.

If players brought their pink puffle and play this game, it will dive with them. It blows bubbles from time to time, and if players lose a lot of air, it will blow a giant bubble under their ship.

  • Shells

Shells are small blue items that hold a pearl each. And the pearl is what players should take. There is also a Black Pearl, which is worth 50 coins, double that of a normal Pearl. It may possibly a reference to the Black Pearl (a ship) from the Disney series of movies Pirates Of The Caribbean.

It is found at the at a cave on the sea floor at Clam Waters which is inside Big Bertha’s mouth. The Mullet guards the entrance only if you have the pearl. If successfully recovered you will be awarded 300 coins.

They are found in Soda Seas. Once you pick up Cream Soda, the water gets fresher and fresher until they are back to life.

They pollute the sea. Once successfully recovered, you will gain 50 Coins and fresher water.

It is found near the end of Soda Seas. There are only four of them. Once that the players have the Amethyst, more Puff Almighty will appear on the screen.

It is found in the end of Soda seas. It sucks in water to inflate and spits out water to deflate. Players and their submarine will also be affected.

As revealed in The Penguin Times Issue No. 151, there have been sightings of a Giant Squid. This used to be rumored as the Guardian in level 2 of Aqua Grabber. The actual guardian in level two is a giant puffer fish. On level one(1)you can occasionally find the squid when an earthquake happens. The squid is black and blue and then it swims away. When it happens there's a screeching sound and the screen shakes all over the place. I've seen the giant squid before. It may be "Squidzoid" from the stage play "Squidzoid v.s Shadow Guy and Gamma Gal..

Trivia

  • If you bump the top of a particular cave in the Soda Seas, players will get a worm. Fluffy will eat the worm, then you can feed him to a mullet guarding a cave. The mullet will go away and you can swim down to get some extra treasure.
  • If players don't move and the submarine is going down below sea level, the water will not go up to their submarine.
  • If the player completes the normal mode, they will unlock several other modes, including time trials. If they complete time trials on time, they will unlock compressed air mode, in which the player moves very fast without letting any air into the sub.
  • In Compressed Air Mode, it is impossible to get the secret worm in Soda Seas, as the player loses a life when hitting the cave a wall.
  • You can send other players a Penguin Mail card that says you want them to check out Aqua Grabber.
  • There was once a Aqua Grabber pin.
  • It is possible to receive only a single coin at the end of the game, but it can only be done in Clam Waters. You must go to the bottom of the sea, where Big Bertha resides. Then pick up the pearl-shaped rock. That item is worth only one coin.
  • There is an Aqua Grabber vehicle, like the Snow Trekker. It includes the Scuba Diver from series 1, a clam with a pearl, and a treasure chest.
The Giant Squid.
  • There may be a third level because there is a Puffer Fish Pin hidden at the Iceberg.
  • The noise that the Giant Squid made before it came, was removed because young children were scared by it.
  • The aqua grabber is in the second cave in the mine expedition in the mine.

History

  • The Aqua Grabber was built in February 2008 by Gary the Gadget Guy.
  • Its name was a choice given in a poll. Second to it was the Deep Sea Salvage.
  • It was originally built to rescue parts of Rockhopper's ship which was damaged when it crashed, as part of the Save The Migrator project.
  • The items you had to get were part of the Migrator unlike the Aqua Grabber today
  • About half an year ago, Aqua Grabber was updated. Before, there was only one level, and all you had to do is find a Treasure Chest and bring it up to the net, and then the game was over.
