How the inhabitants of your island behave, move or interact with each other depends on their personalities. We’ll show you what personalities there are and what settings you can use to reach them.
How you influence personalities
At the end of creating your residents, you will see a table with five character traits. Here you decide whether the resident acts slowly or quickly or whether the person appears calm or lively. Depending on how you tick the boxes, your personality will change as a result.
Overall there is 16 different personalities with four overarching categories: Confident, Calm, Lively and Reserved. There are four additional personality types under each of these categories. The color of your residents’ house is also influenced by their natures.
