Rosco is a gothic horse that’s been in Animal Crossing since the beginning. His aesthetic, from his clothes to his house, is very emo circa the early 10s. Only a few villagers have this aesthetic, so he is pretty popular with dark academia or other darker-themed islands (think goth, dark academia, etc.). Bottom Line Up …
Ah, Dotty, the classic peppy villager (a type that has barely changed over the years); she is one of the original villagers (who also hasn’t changed much!). While Dotty is often forgotten amongst the many, many villagers in Animal Crossing, she is a nostalgic character for those who have been playing Animal Crossing for a …

Rodney is a little blue hamster who first appeared in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. He has appeared in every game since then except for Pocket Camp. His name is a play on the word rodent. This little guy doesn’t have a strong presence in the Animal Crossing community. I’ve never seen him be claimed as …
As I explained in my guide about Punchy the cat villager in Animal Crossing, they are cute creatures you want to be around 24/7. They are a pain in the butt at times (which is especially true for my cat, who will bite and scratch me if I touch his belly), but their purrs are …

Currently, Animal Crossing has 35 different villagers species. Squirrels are one of the most common species, having 19 villagers in New Horizons and 3 more found in previous games that didn’t make the most recent cut. None of the special characters are squirrels, so you can only find squirrels as villagers. The most noticeable trait …
You can’t play Animal Crossing without having a collection of tools in your pocket. About half of your activities require a tool to be completed. Without them, you’d probably just run around talking to your villagers with a few bells from selling shells and fruits. While all games have required the possession of tools, New …
When I started playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons, one of the earliest villagers on my island of Malapascua that Tom Nook invited was Clay, a peculiar-looking hamster. On the day of his arrival, I spotted his house and thought that it looked ancient. When I went inside, I met him. At first, I thought Clay …
