One of the most intriguing elements of life simulation games is generational gameplay. InInZoi, as well as other life sims, the game world remains static while its inhabitants experience life, from working and parenting to aging and passing away. This concept offers a lighthearted lens through which to explore serious themes. However, before diving into generational dynamics, players must first navigate the complexities of starting a family.
In InZoi, the path to parenthood is more intricate than in reality. Unlike traditional life simulations, female Zois cannot become pregnant through mere interactions. Players must guide their Zois into marriage and cohabitation before attempting to conceive. This requires a strategic approach to romance, including flirting, dating, and ultimately, building a life partnership.
How to Have a Baby in InZoi
Currently, only female Zois can become pregnant, with no available options for adoption or surrogacy. However, future updates may introduce these features.
After successfully pairing a Zoi with a spouse, a new option appears in the Romance section: "suggest having a baby." Selecting this option initiates an intimate interaction, leading to the possibility of pregnancy. While there’s no guarantee of conception with this choice, skipping it entirely ensures no chance of a new addition.
Once the intimate act is completed, players can use a pregnancy test to confirm if the attempt was successful. If not, simply try again. If the test is positive, the anticipation begins. The pregnancy lasts three in-game days, characterized by fluctuating moods. While the experience may come with minor challenges, a pregnant Zoi can express discomfort through in-game actions, such as vomiting.
When the time arrives for delivery, an exclamation point will appear on the Zoi’s portrait, signaling the moment to give birth. The baby will be born right there, following a brief cutscene. Afterward, players will welcome their new virtual child, complete with the opportunity to choose a name, stepping into the world of digital parenthood.
