| + | The April Fools' Day varies in {{NL}} compared to its appearance in other games. The villagers will also try to trick the player. [[Blanca]] is the special character that visits the player's town during April Fools' Day, and can be found next to the [[Town Tree]] in the [[Event Plaza]].

The game consists of the player finding Blanca in one of the villager's homes, in which she will take the appearance of the villager whose home she is in. You must identify her from the real villagers and her. The player will be able to identify through the statements the villagers say whether Blanca or the real villagers. |

| − | In {{NL}}, April Fools' Day is a larger event, being hosted by [[Blanca]], who appears in the [[event plaza]]. If spoken to, she will tell the player that she wants to play a game with them. The game involves Blanca appearing in a villager's house disguised as the villager alongside the real one. The player must run around their own town trying to find Blanca among any villager house, where two villagers will be angry at each other if the player manages to find where Blanca is. If talked to, the villagers will have an argument, and the player must, through each character's dialogue, determine which one is Blanca. One of the characters will give the player a towel, which the player must give to one of them; if given to Blanca, she will wipe off her disguise and move to another villager's house. Which character is the imposter is determined by statements made by them, including their favorite saying, birthday, skill, future goal, and number of siblings.

| − | If the player correctly identifies Blanca, the real villager will give them their [[picture]], and if the player correctly identifies Blanca in each villager's house, she will send them {{I|Blanca's pic|NL}} in the mail the next day.
| + | When the player decided to identify by talking to villagers, the speaking villager will give the player a towel, and must go to the villager they think is Blanca so that they can wipe their face, to remove make-up. When talking to the assumed Blanca, the player will give them the towel. The villager will turn around and rub their face, turning around to reveal their true identity. If it's Blanca, there will be a poof of smoke and she will reveal herself. The real villager will be relieved, knowing the player knows enough about them. Blanca will disappear to another villager's house and the villager that was helped will give the player their [[picture]]. If it's not Blanca, she will disappear to another villager's house and the real villager will not give their picture because the player does not know enough about them. If Blanca is busted each time she will give her picture. The player can receive tips by alerting the other villagers about Blanca. |
