Nookle

Animal Crossing villagers are the answers in Nookle. Guess the mystery villager from clues, then try the Nookonomics mode for a different challenge.

Guessing Animal Crossing villagers

Nookle hides one Animal Crossing villager a day. There are hundreds of villagers, so the clues matter. The game is most useful to players of New Horizons, but villagers from older games know the same faces.

Facts that help

Personality types: every villager has one of eight, normal, peppy, snooty, sisterly, lazy, jock, cranky or smug. Finding it early cuts the list hard.
Species: cats, dogs, frogs, squirrels and many more. Each species has a few dozen villagers at most.
Birthdays and catchphrases are fun to know but less useful than personality and species.

Nookonomics and what is coming

Beyond villagers, Nookle has a Nookonomics mode about the money side of Animal Crossing, and modes for posters and songs are planned. Each mode has one daily answer, so there is no endless mode right now.

Before you start Nookle

Start with a villager of a common species so the clues help.
Personality type is a great way to narrow the list.
Check the other modes as they open.
