Butterfly Collecting / Insect Catching

A new activity for Zois would be to collect butterflies (and other insects) in parks of the cities. You can catch them and complete your butterfly collection. That would be a reason to go explore the world! And you could have the insects as pets in a terrarium or insect box. Some insects, such as moths, appear only at night, while butterflies only appear during the day. They can be sold and rare butterflies sell for a high price.

It would make the worlds more interactive and give us a reason to explore every corner of the map. Also it would be awesome if there would be different insects in different cities. I loved catching butterflies in The Sims 3 and would love to collect all the different butterflies and colorful insects living in the green spaces like parks

Omg I am imagining it being like animal crossing and catching bugs. That would be so cool!

Is there any other collection in Inzoi? Because if it’s not I would love to sugest a vynil or album collection or something like that so depending of personality we can choose which one for our Zois

I feel like that idea would be cool. Like a collection hobby type thing! Could add bobble heads, coins, plant specimens, etc

Yes, that way each Zoi would be unique f.e. they should have their own favorite object inside the collection or be able to take care and things like that

Oh oh and I can totally see like this becoming part of like a museum curator career if there ever is one!

Yes like in Animal Crossing! In Sims 3 we could also catch and collect butterflies

And maybe an Entomologist career too!

I would love this, especially if they combine it with some sort of enclosure for your house or donating them to a museum/zoo like in animal crossing. That way you could actually see your collection flying around and fill up an empty museum/zoo enclosure.

The new update will add big aquarium tanks that you can fill with fish. The same system could be applied to terrarium tanks where you can display butterflies and insects. Or butterflies are already inside of transparent boxes like in Animal Crossing.

There are actually already a few collections coming with the update next week. Fish, plants, minerals, gems…

Yes there should definitely be an insect collection as one of these tabs. Especially butterflies and moths.

Moths should only appear at night. This would give Zois a reason to explore the world at night. Butterflies only appear during the day.

now that the new update has added collecting I really hope they expand it down the line to include stuff like this
