Fame System (inZoi)
The fame system is extremely promising and has the potential to become one of the deepest core pillars of the game. Below are suggestions to make it more realistic, dynamic, and customizable for different playstyles.
This system makes fame feel alive, emotional, unpredictable, and deeply personal — from chaotic superstar gameplay to quiet, low-profile lives.
Access to Clubs and VIP Areas
Zois must personally know another Zoi or meet specific requirements to access clubs and VIP spaces.
Some locations require fame or celebrity status.
In some cases, joining an organization is necessary (agency, brand, social group).
Invisible VIP zones concept:
-
Flexible zones without needing doors or walls
-
Security guards can block access based on requirements
-
Physical doors/walls still available as an option
Global Fame Progression
To reach worldwide recognition, a Zoi must go through:
-
Jobs
-
Events
-
Special opportunities
These act as real boosts for exposure and international reach.
Reactions to Fame
Not all Zois react the same way:
-
Some admire celebrities
-
Some dislike them
Even the famous Zoi can differ:
-
Loves fame
-
Feels overwhelmed and wants a normal life
This adds emotional depth.
Travel and International Work
Famous Zois must travel for:
-
Events
-
Jobs
-
Tours
-
Award shows
This strengthens the feeling of global scale.
Adjustable Fame Difficulty
Not all players want the same experience.

Niche Fame System – inZoi
Instead of a single global fame bar, the Zoi has multiple separate fame tracks, each tied to a specific niche.
A Zoi can be:
unknown overall
BUT a legend in music
or a fashion icon
or irrelevant outside their own world
This creates much more realistic storytelling.

Fame Niches
Each one has an independent 0–10 progression:
Music
Acting
Fashion
Internet / Influencer
Sports
Business (CEO)
Politics
Art
(more can be added depending on gameplay)
How it works in practice
Separate fame system
Example:
Music: (8)
Fashion: (3)
Politics: (1)
Result:
Music fans instantly recognize the Zoi
Fashion world: “yeah, I’ve heard of them”
Politics: nobody really cares
Intelligent recognition
NPCs do NOT all react the same:
-
A music fan → gets excited seeing the Zoi
-
A business CEO → ignores them completely
-
A critic → reacts negatively no matter the fame level
The world feels much more alive.
