Hello AC friends! You’re in good company here. I obsess over which villagers to add to my themed islands, which led me to creating all the villager lists. If you’ve landed here, you are not here to mess around. You need the cutest most cuddly most sweetest villagers on your island. No uggos.
I know “cute” is subjective but I am going to do my best (and ultimately miss a bunch of cuties) to share the most stereotypical cuties in game. They are soft, sweet, and oh so darling!
Let’s count down from 50.
