Disney Riddles

Ollie the owl, your puzzle guide

Test your Disney trivia with original riddles about the mice, princesses and villains everyone grew up with. These riddles for kids work great on road trips and at themed birthday parties. Guess the character, then tap the card to check your answer.

Read the second clue before you name the Disney character

Eighty one cards sit on this page, and seventy of them behave the same way: sixty seven who am I riddles plus three emoji pairs, all of which hide their answer until you tap the card. Four more cards want a name typed in. Seven score the option you pick, six multiple choice questions and one true or false. The difficulty ladder across those eighty one is twenty six easy, twenty nine medium and twenty six hard.

Most clues stack two or three traits and expect you to keep reading. A worried father named Marlin crossing an ocean suits the father as neatly as the son, until you notice he is described rather than speaking, which is attribute narrowing doing its work on card fifty seven. Card fifty eight narrows by wardrobe instead: a short fuse and a hard to follow voice describe two famous cartoon ducks, and only one of them dresses like a sailor.

When a card names the tempting wrong answer above the reveal, you get to see the trap you were walking into. More often than not that wrong answer comes from the same film, though some are borrowed from outside Disney altogether. Card forty five works from a fact clue rather than a contradiction: a rubber top, a spring bottom and a boast about being unique all come out of one song. That habit of holding your first guess carries over to our Harry Potter riddles.

  1. Riddle 57: most people say Marlin the worried dad. Marlin does swim the whole ocean, so his name surfaces first. Read the sentence again though: he is described in the third person, which means the voice belongs to the fish he is chasing, not to him.
  2. Riddle 58: most people say Daffy Duck. A short fuse and a hard to follow voice fit both ducks, and Daffy is the louder memory for many families. The wardrobe settles it: one duck wears a sailor blouse and cap, the other wears nothing at all.
  3. Riddle 45: most people say Roo the bouncing kangaroo. Roo hops everywhere, so a kangaroo feels right. But the clue says the bouncing comes from a tail built like a spring, and it ends with a boast about being the only one of his kind.
  4. Riddle 3: most people say Sleeping Beauty. Sleeping Beauty also falls into an enchanted sleep, so the sleeping alone decides nothing. The cottage shared with seven little friends is what separates the two, because the other princess sleeps in a castle tower.

When a clue could fit two characters, hold your first guess and look for the single detail only one of them owns.

  1. 1. I have big round ears, red shorts and yellow shoes, and my whole world started with a whistle on a steamboat. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Minnie Mouse

    Show answer

    Mickey Mouse.

    Minnie shares those ears, but she wears a bow and a dress, never red shorts, and the whistling debut cartoon Steamboat Willie stars her sweetheart instead.

  2. 2. I danced all night in a beautiful gown, but when the clock struck twelve I ran so fast I left a shoe behind. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Belle in her golden gown

    Need a hint?

    Her shoe was made of glass.

    Show answer

    Cinderella.

    Plenty of princesses dance in ballgowns, so the deadline decides it: only one heroine must escape when a clock strikes twelve, dropping a glass slipper on the palace stairs.

  3. 3. Seven little friends share their cottage with me, and a shiny red apple got me into big trouble. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Sleeping Beauty

    Show answer

    Snow White.

    Sleeping Beauty also falls under a spell, but her curse arrives by spindle, and no other princess keeps house with seven dwarfs, so the apple and the cottage settle it.

  4. 4. In Frozen, Olaf the snowman dreams about enjoying which season? Easy

    Show answer

    Summer

    He even sings a whole song about relaxing in the summer sun.

  5. 5. Ice shoots from my fingers, I built a whole palace in one song, and I finally learned to let it go. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Anna the younger sister

    Show answer

    Elsa.

    Anna belongs to the same movie yet has no magic at all; the sister who freezes a staircase into a palace and sings about letting go is the queen with powers.

  6. 6. I am made of snow, but I love warm hugs and dream of sunny days. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Frosty the Snowman

    Show answer

    Olaf.

    The clue is a contradiction: snow melts in sunshine, so the joke only works for a snowman protected by his own personal flurry, the cheerful sidekick of the Frozen sisters.

  7. 7. ๐Ÿฆ + ๐Ÿ‘‘ Easy

    Most people first say: King of the Jungle

    Show answer

    The Lion King (lion + king).

    The crown could translate as queen, prince or throne. Only the word king fits after lion, and the reading order matters: lion first, ruler second.

  8. 8. My father ruled the Pride Lands, my uncle told me to run away, and a meerkat and a warthog raised me. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Mufasa the king

    Show answer

    Simba.

    Mufasa ruled, so he cannot be the speaker; the voice here is the exiled cub, the one Scar chased away and a warthog duo fed on bugs until he returned.

  9. 9. I traded my beautiful voice to a sea witch for a pair of legs. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Ursula the sea witch

    Need a hint?

    She lives under the sea.

    Show answer

    Ariel.

    Read who speaks: the witch receives the voice while the narrator pays it, so the answer is the mermaid who wanted human feet, not Ursula who collected her song.

  10. 10. I am a blue fish who forgets almost everything, but I never forget to just keep swimming. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Nemo the clownfish

    Show answer

    Dory

    Nemo is the small orange clownfish, so color rules him out; the forgetful blue tang with the motto about swimming is his father's travel partner.

  11. 11. I was carved from wood, I dreamed of being a real boy, and my nose tells on me every time I lie. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Geppetto the woodcarver

    Show answer

    Pinocchio.

    Geppetto did the carving, so he is not the one speaking; the clue that decides it is the growing nose, a lie detector nobody else in the film owns.

  12. 12. I live in Neverland, I never want to grow up, and my shadow once ran away from me. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: one of the Lost Boys

    Show answer

    Peter Pan.

    Every Lost Boy skips growing up, so that clue alone cannot finish the job. The detail that narrows it is the mischievous shadow Wendy had to stitch back on.

  13. 13. What kind of animal is Sebastian, the royal composer in The Little Mermaid? Medium

    Show answer

    A crab

    Lobster is the popular guess because of the red shell, but the royal composer has eight walking legs, two pinching claws and scuttles sideways, which makes him a crab.

  14. 14. I am tiny, I glow, I sprinkle pixie dust, and I get jealous very easily. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: the Fairy Godmother

    Show answer

    Tinker Bell.

    A fairy godmother waves a wand and grants wishes, never pixie dust, and she shows no jealousy. Sparkling dust plus a quick temper names Peter Pan's pocket sized companion.

  15. 15. There is a snake in my boot, I have a pull string, and I am a sheriff who belongs to a boy named Andy. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Buzz Lightyear

    Show answer

    Woody.

    Buzz is Andy's other favorite toy, yet he is a space ranger with no drawstring and no snake gag, so the boot line and the tin badge mark the cowboy doll instead.

  16. 16. Mickey Mouse's pet dog is named Goofy. Easy

    Show answer

    False.

    Mickey's dog is Pluto. Goofy is his tall friend who talks, drives a car and somehow also seems to be a dog.

  17. 17. I am a space ranger who can fly to infinity and beyond, even though I am really a toy. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: a real astronaut

    Show answer

    Buzz Lightyear.

    A living astronaut would fit the catchphrase, but the last clause says toy, which narrows the field to the plastic action figure who believes his own mission is genuine.

  18. 18. Everyone laughed at my giant ears until those ears helped me fly around the circus tent. Who am I? Easy

    Show answer

    Dumbo.

    Ears cannot lift a real elephant, so the riddle rewards the odd one out: the circus calf whose teasing crowd falls silent once those oversized ears work as wings.

  19. 19. โ„๏ธ + ๐Ÿ‘ญ Easy

    Most people first say: Elsa and Anna

    Need a hint?

    Two royal sisters and a lot of snow.

    Show answer

    Frozen (ice + two sisters).

    Two sisters alone could mean Lilo and Nani, so the snowflake does the work: pair ice with royal siblings and you land on the film title, not on character names.

  20. 20. I am a young deer whose best friends are a bouncy rabbit named Thumper and a shy skunk named Flower. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Rudolph the reindeer

    Show answer

    Bambi.

    Rudolph, the other famous young deer, pulls a sleigh and has no skunk or rabbit friends; those two names come straight from the forest cast around the fawn.

  21. 21. I lived in a lamp for ten thousand years, I grant exactly three wishes, and no wishing for more wishes. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Aladdin the lamp owner

    Show answer

    The Genie.

    Aladdin rubs the lamp but cannot grant anything; the speaker sets the rules, and that rule list of three wishes with no loophole for extras belongs to the blue spirit inside.

  22. 22. Simba's wise father, the king of the Pride Lands, is named what? Medium

    Show answer

    Mufasa

    Scar tempts you because he rules Pride Rock later, but he seizes the throne as the brother, not the parent. Zazu is a hornbill and Rafiki a mandrill, so neither can be a lion king.

  23. 23. I was a street kid with a monkey on my shoulder until a magic carpet and a lamp changed everything. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Abu the monkey

    Show answer

    Aladdin.

    Abu sits on the shoulder, so he is not the narrator. Follow the order instead: a street thief first, then the carpet and the lamp turn him into a prince.

  24. 24. I am a little rat with a big dream: cooking gourmet food in a Paris restaurant. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: The film Ratatouille

    Show answer

    Remy

    Naming the movie is easy; naming the rat is the test. He is the one with the refined palate who steers a clumsy garbage boy by tugging his hair under a chef hat.

  25. 25. I love books more than anything, and I saw the kind heart hiding inside a scary beast. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Beauty and the Beast

    Show answer

    Belle.

    Answering with the film title misses the question, which asks who. The reading habit plus the choice to look past a frightening exterior names the inventor's daughter in the provincial town.

  26. 26. A curse turned me into a monster, and only true love before the last petal falls can save me. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: the Frog Prince

    Show answer

    The Beast.

    Several cursed royals need true love, yet only one has a countdown: petals dropping from an enchanted rose set the deadline for the fanged lord of the castle.

  27. 27. What amazing gift does the Beast give Belle in his castle? Medium

    Show answer

    A giant library

    The mirror tempts you, and he really does hand it over, but it is a pocket object for looking in on her father. The question asks for the room he throws open, and only one choice is that size.

  28. 28. One of us is a meerkat, one of us is a warthog, and together we taught a lion cub two magic words: hakuna matata. Who are we? Medium

    Most people first say: Rafiki and Zazu

    Show answer

    Timon and Pumbaa.

    Rafiki is a mandrill and Zazu a hornbill, so neither fits the species clue. Match animal to name: the wisecracking meerkat pairs with the big hearted warthog.

  29. 29. The ocean chose me, so I sailed past the reef with a silly chicken to return the heart of Te Fiti. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Ariel the little mermaid

    Show answer

    Moana.

    Ariel swims and never sails; the voyage clue decides this one. A wayfinder crosses the reef by canoe with Heihei aboard to carry a stolen stone heart home.

  30. 30. I am a demigod with a giant fish hook and tattoos that move. You're welcome. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Hercules the Disney demigod

    Show answer

    Maui.

    Hercules also counts as a Disney demigod, but he swings fists, not a hook, and no living ink dances on his skin; the boastful song about being welcome seals it.

  31. 31. ๐Ÿ  + ๐Ÿ” Easy

    Most people first say: Finding Dory

    Show answer

    Finding Nemo (fish + searching).

    The magnifying glass is a verb, not a prop: it supplies the action word, so the tropical swimmer becomes the thing being looked for. Guessing the sequel about the blue sidekick ignores that.

  32. 32. I am Experiment 626, a fluffy blue troublemaker who found a family in Hawaii. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Sulley the blue monster

    Need a hint?

    Ohana means family.

    Show answer

    Stitch.

    Blue and furry fits several monsters, but the serial number 626 belongs to one alien experiment, and the Hawaiian setting rules out anything built inside a scare factory.

  33. 33. I spent eighteen years in a tower, my hair is seventy feet long, and my frying pan makes a great weapon. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Sleeping Beauty

    Show answer

    Rapunzel.

    Locked-away princesses are common, so the kitchen skillet decides it: only one heroine fights with cookware, and hair measured in dozens of feet points to the same girl.

  34. 34. I am a lonely robot who spent centuries cleaning up an empty Earth, one trash cube at a time. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: EVE from the same film

    Show answer

    WALL-E

    Rust and loneliness fit several machines, so use the job: compacting garbage on a deserted planet for seven hundred years belongs to one Pixar worker, not to a medical or scouting droid.

  35. 35. I worked two jobs to open my own restaurant in New Orleans, but kissing a frog turned my plans green. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Naveen the frog prince

    Show answer

    Tiana.

    Green does double duty here: it hints at the swamp shape she takes after the kiss, not at money for the cafe. The waitress doing the kissing is the heroine, not the prince.

  36. 36. Which grinning Wonderland character asks the famous riddle 'Why is a raven like a writing desk?' Hard

    Show answer

    The Mad Hatter

    The grin pulls solvers toward the vanishing cat, but the question comes from the hatter hosting the tea party. Carroll left it unresolved inside the story and only printed his own answer in an 1896 preface.

  37. 37. A ticking crocodile ate my hand and follows me everywhere, hoping for the rest of me. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Mr. Smee the first mate

    Show answer

    Captain Hook.

    The ticking gives the clue away: the beast swallowed a clock along with the limb, so the speaker must be the Neverland pirate who wears a curved replacement, not his round little helper.

  38. 38. I took my father's place in the army by dressing as a soldier, and a little dragon named Mushu came along. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: a brave young man

    Show answer

    Mulan.

    The disguise is the point. Readers picture a brave son enlisting, but the whole story turns on a daughter hiding her identity so her ailing father can stay home in China.

  39. 39. I am a fashion-obsessed villain who wanted a coat made from 101 spotted puppies. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: the vain Evil Queen

    Show answer

    Cruella de Vil

    Vanity alone would fit several queens; the dog count is what pins it down. Only one schemer counts dalmatians for fur, and her surname sounds like a word for wicked.

  40. 40. In Aladdin, what is the name of the princess of Agrabah? Easy

    Show answer

    Jasmine

    Sort the options by kingdom: the sleeping princess belongs to a European castle, the mermaid to Atlantica, the archer to Scotland. Only one grew up behind palace walls in a desert city, guarded by a tiger.

  41. 41. I am a big blue furry monster with purple spots, and scaring kids is my job, until a tiny girl named Boo taught me that laughter is stronger than screams. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Stitch the blue alien

    Show answer

    Sulley.

    Purple spots and a scaring job fit more than one monster, so let the ending decide: the scarer who converts the factory to laughter is the tall furry boss, not his green partner.

  42. 42. I am a big, soft, huggable robot built to be your personal healthcare companion, and I like to check if you are satisfied with my care. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: WALL-E the cleaning robot

    Show answer

    Baymax.

    Vinyl balloon shape plus the bedside manner narrow it to one nurse droid; a trash compactor never asks about your treatment, and the catchphrase about being satisfied seals it.

  43. 43. I am a Scottish princess with wild red curls who would rather shoot my bow and arrow than marry any prince. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Ariel the redhead princess

    Show answer

    Merida.

    Red hair alone fits a mermaid too, so the Highlands setting and the refusal of every suitor do the narrowing: one archer heroine breaks a betrothal tradition instead of accepting it.

  44. 44. I am a chubby little cub stuffed with fluff, I live in the Hundred Acre Wood, and I would do almost anything for a pot of honey. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Baloo the jungle bear

    Show answer

    Winnie the Pooh.

    Honey love points at several bears, but only one is a toy, and the forest address is the giveaway: that patch of woodland belongs to a red-shirted bear with a rumbly tummy.

  45. 45. I bounce all day on my springy tail, my top is made of rubber and my bottom is made of springs, and the wonderful thing is I am the only one. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Roo the bouncing kangaroo

    Show answer

    Tigger.

    Roo bounces on legs, and Kanga carries him in her pouch. This bouncer's coiled body doubles as a pogo stick, and the boast about being unique rules out every other resident of the Hundred Acre Wood.

  46. 46. I am Kristoff's loyal reindeer, I pull his sled through the mountains, and I would trade almost anything for a fresh carrot. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer

    Show answer

    Sven.

    Christmas brings a different famous antler team to mind, but this one belongs to an Arendelle ice harvester, and the carrot bribe is the detail that names the one-word Frozen sidekick.

  47. 47. I am a bright red race car, Kachow is my catchphrase, and a sleepy town called Radiator Springs taught me to slow down and make real friends. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Doc Hudson

    Show answer

    Lightning McQueen.

    Other racers share the paint job, but the shout of Kachow and the desert pit stop that teaches patience belong to the rookie number 95, not to the retired local champion.

  48. 48. I am a round green monster with one giant eye and skinny little legs, and I am the funniest scarer at the whole company. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Randall the sneaky lizard

    Show answer

    Mike Wazowski.

    Green alone is not enough at that factory, so count the eyes: a single huge one belongs to the round comedian, while the sneaky lizard rival blends into walls instead.

  49. 49. I am the very first bunny police officer in the big city of Zootopia, and I teamed up with a sly fox to crack a tricky case. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Nick Wilde the fox

    Show answer

    Judy Hopps.

    Readers often name the fox partner, but the speaker is the rabbit who broke into the department first, a small-town carrot farmer's daughter with a surname built on hopping.

  50. 50. I am a big, easygoing bear who floats down the river on my belly and teaches a jungle boy all about the bare necessities of life. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Winnie the Pooh

    Show answer

    Baloo.

    The pun is the key: bare sounds like the animal itself, and the tune about easy living comes from the Indian jungle, not from a honey-loving toy in an English wood.

  51. 51. I am a sea witch, half woman and half octopus, and I love to collect the voices of unlucky mer-folk who make deals with me. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Maleficent the dark fairy

    Show answer

    Ursula.

    Wicked fairies trade in curses; tentacles and a contract for someone's singing point somewhere else, to the purple villainess of the Little Mermaid who keeps stolen songs in a shell necklace.

  52. 52. I am the sneaky royal advisor of Agrabah with a loud parrot on my shoulder, and I will do anything to get my hands on a certain magic lamp. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Iago the loud parrot

    Show answer

    Jafar.

    The bird is the pet, not the speaker, and the job title settles the rest: only the grand vizier schemes for the lamp while the sultan trusts him.

  53. 53. A wicked fairy cursed me to prick my finger on a spinning wheel and sleep until true love's kiss wakes me up. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Snow White

    Show answer

    Aurora.

    Two princesses nap under a spell, so check the cause: a poisoned apple from a jealous queen belongs to the other girl, while a needle and a fairy's grudge mark Sleeping Beauty.

  54. 54. I paddle my canoe down winding rivers, I can paint with all the colors of the wind, and my closest friends are a raccoon and a hummingbird. Who am I? Medium

    Most people first say: Moana the island voyager

    Show answer

    Pocahontas.

    An ocean voyager also travels by boat, but forest rivers, a raccoon named Meeko and a hummingbird called Flit place this heroine in Virginia rather than the Pacific.

  55. 55. Everyone in my magical family got a special gift from our enchanted house, everyone except me, but I am still the one who holds us all together. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Bruno the hidden uncle

    Need a hint?

    She narrates the story of a Colombian magic house.

    Show answer

    Mirabel.

    The uncle everybody hides does have a gift, so being left out is not the same as being shunned. The granddaughter in green glasses narrates Encanto and leads the rebuilding of the cracked casita.

  56. 56. I love music even though my family forbids it, and one Day of the Dead my guitar strummed me right into the colorful Land of the Dead. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Hector the skeleton musician

    Need a hint?

    The living boy in a shoemaking family.

    Show answer

    Miguel.

    A skeleton busker also plays and sings in that marigold world, but only a living boy crosses over, and the shoemaking relatives who banned songs mark him as the Rivera grandson.

  57. 57. I am a small orange clownfish with one small lucky fin, and my worried dad Marlin swam across the whole ocean to bring me home. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Marlin the worried dad

    Show answer

    Nemo.

    Marlin appears in the clue as the searcher, so the speaker must be the one being searched for. That role belongs to the undersized son who gets scooped into a dentist's aquarium in Sydney.

  58. 58. I wear a little sailor suit, I lose my temper in a flash, and my quacky voice is famously tricky to understand. Who am I? Easy

    Most people first say: Daffy Duck

    Show answer

    Donald Duck.

    Daffy Duck also splutters and loses his temper, yet he wears nothing at all. Clothing is the divider: a middy blouse and cap dress Mickey's feathered sidekick, who reached screens in 1934, three years ahead of Daffy.

  59. 59. I was a spoiled young emperor until a potion mix-up turned me into a talking llama, and a kind villager helped me find my groove. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: a cursed frog prince

    Need a hint?

    An Inca ruler on four legs.

    Show answer

    Kuzco.

    Another royal becomes an amphibian by magic kiss, but this transformation comes from a wrong vial brewed by an advisor, and only one Inca ruler travels home with a peasant named Pacha.

  60. 60. Working for a scheming villain never stopped me from cooking a mean spinach puff and chatting with the squirrels. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Yzma the scheming boss

    Need a hint?

    The henchman who talks to woodland animals.

    Show answer

    Kronk.

    Most solvers name the boss herself, yet the clue describes her muscular sidekick: the one who speaks squirrel, wears an apron without shame and cannot keep a secret.

  61. 61. My hair is a flickering blue flame, I run the gloomy Underworld, and I have a fast-talking plan to seize Mount Olympus. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Zeus, ruler of the gods

    Need a hint?

    Think Greek gods, and who runs the lower realm

    Show answer

    Hades.

    Zeus rules Olympus rather than plotting against it, so the throne-grabbing schemer below must be his brother. Burning hair and a smooth salesman patter pin down the Greek villain.

  62. 62. Cool sarcasm is my style, I once traded my freedom to the lord of the Underworld, and I fall for a clumsy strongman named Herc. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: one of the singing Muses

    Need a hint?

    A bargain with the Underworld lord came first

    Show answer

    Megara.

    The singing Muses narrate the tale but never sell their freedom. Only one character bargains with Hades and then falls for the hero, which makes the deal itself the deciding clue.

  63. 63. High above a Paris cathedral I ring the enormous bells, and my closest friends are three chatty stone gargoyles. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Esmeralda the dancer

    Need a hint?

    Who lives upstairs and pulls the ropes?

    Show answer

    Quasimodo.

    Esmeralda dances in the square below and never touches the ropes. The speaker lives upstairs, so the ringing job plus gargoyle company names the hunchback of Notre Dame.

  64. 64. A clumsy young mapmaker and language expert, I joined a daring crew to find a lost city hidden deep under the sea. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Commander Rourke

    Need a hint?

    The one who reads ancient writing, not the leader

    Show answer

    Milo Thatch.

    Rourke commands the submarine but cannot read the ancient writing. The clue that decides it is linguist, since only the bookish translator on the Atlantis team reads the old script.

  65. 65. With a glitch in my code, I zip around a candy-coated racing game called Sugar Rush. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Taffyta the star racer

    Need a hint?

    The racer who blinks and stutters, not the champion

    Show answer

    Vanellope.

    Taffyta races there too, but her sprite never flickers. Glitching is the detail that decides it, since exactly one driver in that kart world blinks out of place mid-lap.

  66. 66. Everyone knows me as the big-fisted bad guy of an old arcade game, but I am tired of wrecking things and just want a shiny medal. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Donkey Kong

    Need a hint?

    His job is villain, his wish is heroic

    Show answer

    Wreck-It Ralph.

    Donkey Kong fits the fist-swinging label but never chases a prize. Reading bad guy as a job title, not a personality, points to the demolisher who enters a hero game to win one.

  67. 67. My family would rather not talk about me, I see the future in swirling green visions, and I hid for years inside the walls with my rats. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Abuela Alma

    Need a hint?

    The Madrigal whose gift scared everyone away

    Show answer

    Bruno.

    Abuela keeps the family secrets but has no gift at all. Green glowing prophecy plus a hidden passage behind the plaster marks the vanished uncle nobody in Encanto mentions.

  68. 68. In my magical family I am the sister with super strength, so I carry the donkeys and the whole village leans on me. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Mirabel, the sister without a gift

    Need a hint?

    Not the flower sister and not the youngest

    Show answer

    Luisa.

    Mirabel got no power, so lifting bridges cannot be her. Among the Madrigal sisters the muscle belongs to the middle one, while the eldest grows flowers instead.

  69. 69. Stern and gloomy, I am a famous food critic, but one taste of a humble country dish sends me straight back to my mother's kitchen. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Chef Skinner

    Need a hint?

    The one who judges the food, not cooks it

    Show answer

    Anton Ego.

    Skinner runs the restaurant, he never writes reviews. What settles it is the memory jolt from a rustic vegetable plate, which happens to exactly one reviewer in Ratatouille.

  70. 70. Tiny and sharp-tongued, I design super suits for heroes, and I absolutely refuse to add capes. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Mirage the sleek assistant

    Need a hint?

    A fashion designer with very strong opinions

    Show answer

    Edna Mode.

    Mirage works for the villain and sews nothing. Two clues stack up here, fashion designer and the famous no capes rule, and only the pint-sized stylist in The Incredibles matches both.

  71. 71. Freezing water into ice slides is my power, and I am always yelling to my wife about where my super suit is. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Mr. Incredible

    Need a hint?

    Think ice powers and a very famous shout

    Show answer

    Frozone.

    Mr. Incredible bends steel, he cannot build a frozen ramp. The shouted question about laundry belongs to his best friend, the cool-powered hero skating across city streets.

  72. 72. With a special collar that lets me speak, I am a happy dog who just met you and already loves you, and wait, squirrel. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Alpha, the pack leader

    Need a hint?

    The cheerful one, not the growling pack leader

    Show answer

    Dug.

    Alpha wears the same gadget yet growls threats instead of friendly greetings. Instant devotion and the squirrel outburst mark the one goofy tracker who adopts Carl in Up.

  73. 73. A grumpy old widower, I tied thousands of balloons to my house to float it all the way to Paradise Falls. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Charles Muntz the explorer

    Need a hint?

    Which grumpy widower sold balloons for a living?

    Show answer

    Carl Fredricksen.

    Muntz is also elderly, but he travels by airship and lives in the jungle already. Losing a wife and lifting a whole home instead point to the retired balloon seller.

  74. 74. At one hundred and fifty years old, I am a mellow sea turtle who loves to surf the East Australian Current. Righteous. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Squirt the young turtle

    Need a hint?

    The grown-up surfer, not his little son

    Show answer

    Crush.

    Squirt is a hatchling, so a century and a half rules him out. Surfer slang plus that age leaves the grown turtle guiding Marlin along the current.

  75. 75. A smooth-talking magic man in New Orleans, I carry a deck of cards and have shadowy friends on the other side. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Mama Odie

    Need a hint?

    Whose helpers are shadows, not kind bayou magic?

    Show answer

    Dr. Facilier.

    Mama Odie also works magic in the bayou, yet her spells help people. Friends on the other side signals dark bargains, naming the top-hatted villain of The Princess and the Frog.

  76. 76. A charming thief with a famous smolder, I climbed into a hidden tower to hide and instead met a girl with very long hair. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: a Stabbington brother

    Need a hint?

    One thief of the trio, the charming one

    Show answer

    Flynn Rider.

    The Stabbington twins rob the same crown but never enter the tower alone. Narrowing from thief to the single charmer who deals with Rapunzel leaves the smoldering guide from Tangled.

  77. 77. Being shiny makes me beautiful, or so I think, which is why I cover my giant crab shell in piles of stolen treasure. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Sebastian the little crab

    Need a hint?

    Far bigger than the Little Mermaid's crab friend

    Show answer

    Tamatoa.

    Sebastian is a tiny palace musician who hoards nothing. Size and the glittering hoard together point to the collector Maui battles in a glowing cavern beneath Moana's ocean.

  78. 78. Part elephant, part cat, part dolphin, I cry candy tears and was once a little girl's forgotten imaginary friend. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Dumbo the elephant

    Need a hint?

    No real animal fits, so think make-believe

    Show answer

    Bing Bong.

    Dumbo is only an elephant, so the cat and dolphin parts break that guess. Stacking impossible animal pieces onto one body describes Riley's faded playmate in Inside Out.

  79. 79. A yodeling cowgirl toy with a long red braid, I am terrified of ever being packed away in a dark box again. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Bo Peep the shepherdess

    Need a hint?

    Woody's Roundup friend who hates being stored away

    Show answer

    Jessie.

    Bo Peep is a lamp figurine, not a cowgirl, and she loves adventure outside. The storage fear plus yodeling narrows it to Woody's Roundup partner with the yarn braid.

  80. 80. Made from a plastic spork and a bit of trash, I keep insisting over and over that I belong in the garbage. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Sporky the spork toy

    Need a hint?

    Bonnie made him at kindergarten from a utensil

    Show answer

    Forky.

    Sporky sounds right, but the craft toy is named for the fork half. Insisting he is rubbish while walking and talking marks Bonnie's handmade friend in Toy Story 4.

  81. 81. The richest duck in all of Duckburg, I wear a top hat and coat and love diving into my giant vault of gold coins. Who am I? Hard

    Most people first say: Donald Duck

    Need a hint?

    Not Donald, but his famously thrifty relative

    Show answer

    Scrooge McDuck.

    Donald wears a sailor suit and never has money, so wealth rules him out. A cane, spats and a swimmable coin bin belong to his thrifty Scottish uncle.
