About This Quiz

The world has changed a lot in the last few months. In an increasingly stressful time, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a source of calming joy. Collecting resources, catching critters, fishing, crafting and watching your new home grow from deserted island to a thriving town is a great feeling. Creating a place where the game's many NPCs — affectionately referred to as "villagers" — want to call home themselves and set down roots. Some may join you earlier in the game and others may join later, but they add a great deal of enjoyment and sense of community to island life.

That being said, it's no secret that players have been playing favorites. Whether it's a villager's voice, attitude or way of dressing, some of them just speak to us a little bit more than others. We all have our favorites, from the sheepish clown Pietro to the sharp-dressing cat Raymond, it's only natural that some will stand out from the crowd and make our towns just a little bit more joyful, honest or dapper.

In this quiz, we aim to take a gander at guessing your favorite villager. Will it be gentle Fauna? Confident Hazel? We think these 30 questions might give us an idea.
