I recognise that leaf! But I haven't played an Animal Crossing game in... just about ages, yikes.
AC's Happy Room Academy gimmick was run by an otter named Lyle, they'd visit your shack and score it or something but I'm not sure there was any perfection, just getting as high a score as possible.

Who are some of fiction's other famous old fashioned human-animal squatters? Jack (and the beanstalk), Max (Where the Wild Things Are), Tarzan, the Jungle Book...

I actually just picked New Horizons back up after many months of hiatus - but this is still a tricky one. I'm not sure where to go with it!

It's possible the second clue has something to do with Avery? In his Pocket Camp description he's described as someone who has the look of someone "transplanted from a bygone era". https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Avery

In general his theme is western - perhaps that's what makes his house perfect?

That link states he wants a room full of fossils. Maybe that's what would make his house perfect!
Tar

Oh, good catch! I tried 'fossils', no go - maybe western-themed, rustic-themed, covered wagon, K.K. Condor...
K.K. Condor didn't work for me.

A "room full of fossils" does exist in-game, namely the museum. How to make it perfect varies from game to game but in any case you have to donate?

Congrats on solving this symbol! The answer was "kilimanjaro, just a little bit of milk, one spoonful of sugar".

For those of you wondering how this answer could be arrived at, here's a quick explanation. :)

The riddle is about a villager named Avery. The first clue indicates that we're talking about one of the male villagers. The second clue comes from Avery's description from Pocket Camp, which says he looks like "someone from a bygone era transplanted to modern days." The third clue is asking how he takes his coffee: kilimanjaro brew with just a bit of milk and one spoonful of sugar.
Tar

It was how he liked his coffee, the last thing I tried 'cause I didn't think it'd be that long for some reason - silly me, but huzzah! XD

Oh, wow, that's a mouthful! (Of coffee!) Awesome work!

Yee, great job!! :D

(I'm gonna have to make these harder next time >:D)
Ha, I did try 'one spoonful of sugar' and moved on thinking a full phrase three times as long as the other solutions wouldn't work, so you stumped me.

It may very well be the longest answer we've ever had, and also the first year I've had the capability to accept an answer this long. That was just an accident, but Heim came up with this and I was happy to put it to use XD
