Video game villages are small, often picturesque communities found within various video games. They serve as hubs for players to interact with non-playable characters (NPCs), complete quests, and gather resources. These villages often feature shops, homes, and landmarks that contribute to the game's storyline and atmosphere. In many games, such as the Animal Crossing series or The Legend of Zelda, villages play a crucial role in gameplay. Players can build relationships with villagers, trade items, and participate in local events. The design and layout of these villages can vary widely, reflecting different cultures and themes within the game world.
