Poppy the Kangaroo Guide - IdleOn

May 20, 2025

Poppy the Kangaroo is a clicking mini-game you can find in Yum Yum Desert that will award you account-wide stat bonuses. Poppy is a great way to get early-game stats such as Accuracy, AFK Gains and Total Damage.

How To Find Poppy The Kangaroo

Secret Map

To access Poppy the Kangaroo, you'll need to purchase a Secret Map from the Yum-Yum Desert Vendor Shop.

Poppy Location

Once you have the Secret Map, head to Dessert Dunes and climb to the top left platform. Double click on your Secret Map and you'll be teleported to Poppy the Kangaroo.

Poppy the Kangaroo Mouse's Fish Pond

Pond

Poppy is very similar to the Orion Owl Mini-Game. The game starts out slow, but you'll eventually be able to pick up plenty of bonus stats that will help boost your characters.

To start, you'll have only one option to click: Tasty Fishbait. This will start the game, and you'll earn around 34 Fish every minute

You can then continue to upgrade Tasty Fishbait to earn more fish per minute. At the bottom of the game you'll see a bar that starts at 500. Once you've earned 500 Fish, it'll unlock the next Poppy Upgrade (see below).

You can also click on the Pond to earn a fish every click. This becomes pretty irrelevant as you unlock more Poppy Upgrades though.

Shiny Fish

Once you unlock Shiny Lure upgrade, you can then find Shiny Fish. These will help boost your Fish Caught rate considerably as each Fish contributes towards the multi-catch rate. Once the Shiny Fish bar is at 100%+, click the Tap Here and you'll be able to find a Shiny Fish.

The Bonuses From Poppy upgrade is your ultimate aim to level up, as this is the upgrade that will give you account-wide bonuses.

You can also gain Megafish that will boost these upgrades, but you should only get a Megafish once your Bonuses From Poppy upgrade takes a long time.

The Tar Pit can be accessed once you unlock the first Megafish,  which offers another set of bonuses to upgrade your fish catch rate.
