Cooking is a core gameplay mechanic in inZOI, allowing Zois to prepare meals to satisfy hunger and potentially gain other effects.
How to Cook
To cook, interact with a Refrigerator or Oven and select the Make Food action. This opens the cooking panel displaying available Recipes.
Selecting a recipe will show its requirements:
- Cost: Each recipe costs a certain amount of Meow (in-game currency).
- Cooking Skill Level: Some recipes require a minimum skill level.
- Required Objects: Many recipes need specific furniture like Countertops, Ovens, Induction Cooktops, or an outdoor BBQ Grill.
- Ingredients: Some recipes require specific ingredients.
If any requirements are not met (missing skill level, objects, or ingredients), the recipe will appear locked in the panel.
Ingredients
Certain recipes require specific ingredients, such as Tomatoes or Fish Fillets. Ingredients can be acquired in several ways:
- Gathering from Growable Plants.
- Fishing.
- Purchasing them through the Pocket Market app on the Smartphone.
Serving Size

- Level 3: Pizza, Cake, Birthday Cake

Note: Be mindful when cooking group meals. Zois may autonomously clean up the entire dish, including uneaten portions, after taking a single serving if not managed closely.

Alternatives to Cooking

- Grab a quick bite from the Refrigerator.
- Order food, ingredients, or drinks for delivery using the Pocket Market app on their Smartphone.

- Cooking Together: A group social activity.
