==Family Size and Interactions==
Up to 8 [[Zoi]]s can live as a single family/household. If the family is already at eight, new [[pregnancies]] automatically fail. The developers noted that "someone in your family would have to [[die]]" before another Zoi could be added to that household.
Family or group interactions in [[Early Access]] are somewhat basic. For example, a [[child]] can ask a [[parent]] to [[cook]] [[food]] or do [[laundry]], emphasizing that little kids would not naturally handle those [[tasks]] themselves. While they hope to expand cooperative or group/family gameplay, only limited forms of it are initially present.
==Marriage and Divorce==
'''[[Marriage]]''' and '''[[Divorce]]'''
==Pregnancy and Newborns==
* '''[[Pregnancy]]''' interactions: [[Zoi]]s can announce pregnancies, hold [[parties]], experience [[cravings]], etc. 
* [[Newborn]] gameplay: Limited at launch, but more baby-related interactions are planned for future updates. 
* Technical challenges: [[Infant]]s have a unique body structure requiring special animations.
==Giving Birth and Parenting==

See also: inZOI, Household and Relationships

In inZOI, a Family, also referred to as a Household, is a group of Zois living together. Families are central to gameplay, involving managing relationships, life stages, and household composition.

Household (Family) Size

A single family / household can contain up to 8 Zois. If a household is already at the maximum of 8 Zois, new pregnancies will automatically fail. To add a new Zoi (through birth or other means) to a full household, the developers noted that "someone in your family would have to die" first.

Managing Families

Players have several tools to create and modify families/households.

Creating a New Family

Adding a new family via the Edit City screen.

To start a completely new family:

  1. Access the Edit City screen (via the Map, press [M], or initial game setup).
  2. Click on any empty house / lot.
  3. A Select Family button will appear. Click it.
  4. Choose to either:

Editing Existing Families

Family composition can be changed after creation using the Smartphone.

Adding Members

To add a new Zoi to an existing family (up to the 8-Zoi limit):

  1. Open the Smartphone.
  2. Go to the City Map app or press [M].
  3. Select the household/family you wish to edit.
  4. Choose the 'Add Family Member' option.
  5. This will take you to the Create A Zoi screen to design the new Zoi.
    • Note: You can make minor edits to existing Zois from this screen, but the options are far more limited than the initial character creation.

Setting Relationships

  • When adding new members via the 'Add Family Member' process described above, you can click the Relationships button within that screen.
  • This allows you to define how the newly created Zoi relates to the existing members (e.g., roommate, partner, child, parent).
  • Settable relationship types include:
  • Important: You cannot change the pre-existing relationships of Zois who were already in the family using this method.

Selecting Zois and assets to transfer between families.

To move Zois between two existing households, effectively splitting or merging them:

  1. Open the Smartphone.
  2. Go to the City Map app or press [M].
  3. Access the Manage Zois section.
  4. Navigate to the Manage Family tab.
  5. Select the 'Move Zois Between Families' option.
  6. Choose up to two families to manage transfers between.
  7. Select the specific Zois you wish to move from one family to the other.
  8. You can manually decide how much of the household assets (Meow) are transferred with the moving Zois.
    • Note: Leaving a newly formed or split-off family with no assets may prevent them from buying a house if they don't already own one.
    • Tip: You can use the Create a Temporary Family option within this tool to act as a temporary holding place for Zois during complex reorganizations involving multiple households.
  • Changing family members this way does not affect their surnames.
  • This is the primary method for having unmarried Zois live together as roommates, as the social interaction to Ask to Move In typically only appears for married or engaged Zois.

Removing Members

  • There is no direct 'delete' button for Zois outside of in-game death.
  • To remove a Zoi from a specific active household, use the 'Move Zois Between Families' tool (described above) to move them into a different household (either another existing one or a temporary/unused one you create for this purpose).

Family Life Stages & Interactions

Marriage and Divorce

Pregnancy and Birth

Caring for a newborn baby is an important part of family life.

Pregnancy last for 3 days. Pregnant Zois experience various interactions and states:

After 3 days, the baby (newborn) is born. Babies and toddlers have limited gameplay interactions initially in Early Access but require care (feeding, changing, affection) from family members to grow up healthy.

  • More baby-related interactions are planned for future updates.
  • Developers noted technical challenges related to infants' unique body structures requiring special animations.

Genetics

See also: Genetics
Babies inherit traits and appearances from their parents.

When a baby is born, they inherit characteristics from their parents. This includes physical looks (like hair/eye color, facial features) and potentially Traits and Skills.

Family Interactions

Family or group interactions in Early Access are somewhat basic. Examples include a Child asking a Parent to cook food or do Laundry. Developers hope to expand cooperative or group/family gameplay features in future updates.
