About This Quiz

The long-lost fortune of One-Eyed Willy is out there somewhere. It's just a question of whether Mikey and his friends are going to find it or if Mama Fratelli and her boys get to it first. This '80s classic is filled with characters that cover a wide range of personalities; let's find out which one are you.

Perhaps you're fluent in Spanish, and you're more than happy to use that knowledge to serve as a highly unreliable translator whenever possible. If you're known for talking a lot and having an off-beat sense of humor, Mouth is looking like an excellent fit for you. If you also really love Prince's "Purple Rain," then it's pretty much a done deal.

Maybe you'd consider yourself to be more of a tech geek, someone who keeps up on all the latest innovations and trends. If so, then Data seems like a pretty ideal character to consider for you. If you relate to a combination of James Bond and Inspector Gadget, then it seems clear that this inventive genius is the right choice for you.

The list of iconic characters goes on. Grab your map and let's set off to find this treasure. Who knows, we might end up saving the town and making some unlikely friends along the way.
