inZOI Romance Guide: Starting and Developing Relationships

inZOI offers players a deeply developed system of romantic relationships. To create a truly strong union, attention to detail and understanding of the nuances of game mechanics are required. This guide will reveal all the secrets of successfully building romantic connections — from the first meeting to creating a family.

Before actively searching for a partner, it is recommended to develop several skills and acquire certain traits. When creating a character, it's worth choosing the trait "Charming", and in the "Life Goal" section — "Life of a Romantic". These simple steps will significantly speed up the process of developing relationships.

Then, pay attention to developing the skills "Rhetoric", "Charisma", and "Performance". The simplest way to increase the chance of success in dating is to improve the "Rhetoric" skill. Practice in front of a mirror: repeatedly use the action "Practice Speech". Upon reaching the fifth level of speech proficiency, you can start dating.

Every person is unique, and their behavior in relationships is determined by a combination of various character traits. Before starting courtship, it is important to carefully study a potential partner through the dialogue system. Choose response options that help you learn about their marital status, values, and attitude towards romantic relationships in general.

It's important to consider that some characters are fundamentally not interested in romantic relationships or are already in serious relationships, which can be determined by special markers in their social profile. It's also important to consider that relationships develop fastest with people who have common character traits. For example, a person with the trait "Dominant" may not always find common ground with a partner who has the trait "Creative".

Sociable and emotionally open characters usually respond positively to active signs of attention, whereas introverted and reserved ones prefer a gradual development of relationships. Initial interactions are better started with neutral conversation topics, such as discussing the weather, professional activities, or common interests. This allows establishing initial contact without the risk of appearing intrusive. Premature displays of affection should be avoided, as they may cause rejection from characters.

Moreover, it's not advisable to immediately discuss values and marital status. It's better to follow the principle: two general questions, one personal. After all, potential partners reveal themselves gradually as the level of affection grows.

The game features a love scale that shows the relationships between characters. It is reflected as follows:

Getting closer goes through several stages. Light flirting can lead to mutual affection, keep the conversation going until the status "Mutual Affection", after which you can confidently invite them on a date. On a date, you can raise the relationship level to the status "True Love", after which you can propose marriage.

After marriage, new prospects for family life open up, including the possibility of having children. However, harmony in relationships requires constant work — ignoring your partner can lead to a family crisis up to divorce.

Marital relationships, like others, are expressed by a green scale reflecting the current status of the bond:

Try to maintain the relationship by simply regularly paying attention to your partner. To avoid problems in the relationship, keep it at the level of "Attachment". If the scale drops to the level of "Alienation", there will be regular quarrels, resulting in a risk of divorce.

Getting married allows you to create a joint budget, which helps expand living space and improve quality of life. Also, the income that each spouse receives becomes shared. After the wedding, you have the opportunity to choose the residence of one of the spouses, as well as purchase or build new housing.

Now the player has the opportunity to manage another character, who needs to be developed and cared for. It's important to remember that if a spouse sees another character flirting or spending time with someone else, they may perceive it as infidelity and initiate a divorce. You can decide on divorce at any moment.

Restoring a good relationship after divorce is quite possible. Of course, effort is needed for this. However, as a result, you can remarry, even if the previous union ended on a bad note.
