NPC Showdown 2023: A Gauntlet of Ghosts!
Updated: 4 days ago
THIS TIME, EVEN THE DEAD WILL FIGHT FOR OUR LOVE.
For five dang years straight, we've been running a bracket each year where the characters of Quest Friends! compete to see who is the most beloved. Starting tomorrow, we'll be putting up polls on our twitter account, where users can vote for the Hereafter NPC they like most! After each round of voting, we'll update this webpage with the results and our thoughts. We'll start with two rounds each day, but the voting will slow down in the later rounds, so you can really ponder your decisions (or petition your friends to join your side).
To start though, download our printable bracket, fill it out with your personal winners, and share the result to the world to see using the hashtag #NPCshowdown.
