In the spirit of the upcoming group improvements, I would love to see more small social activities that Zois can actually do together. Not necessarily huge new systems or complicated minigames, just more little things we can place in homes and public places that give friends, couples and families something to do together besides mostly talking or using objects separately. ![]()
We already have things like billiards and darts, so I was thinking it could be nice to expand this kind of gameplay with more small competitive/social games.
I have some small examples:
- Table tennis / ping-pong — 2 Zois
- Foosball / table football — 2 or maybe 4 Zois
- Air hockey — 2 Zois
- Card games — 2–4 Zois
- Board games — small groups
- Bowling - slightly bigger groups
- slot car racing - 2 Zois (especially as an activity for parents and kids)
- Two-player arcade machines
- Maybe more challenges/tournaments for activities like darts that already exist
Ping-pong itself has already been suggested in this thread, so I definitely don’t want to claim that as a new idea:
For me, the main idea here is more about expanding this whole category of small shared activities.
They also wouldn’t need to become complicated player-controlled minigames. I would already be happy if we could choose something like:
“Challenge to Foosball”
“Play Cards Together”
“Challenge to Air Hockey”
…and then the Zois actually play together and the game determines a winner and loser.
Little reactions could make it even more fun. A perfectionist Zoi might celebrate more when they win, someone could get a little annoyed after losing, friends could laugh about mistakes, couples could tease each other and maybe we could ask for a rematch.
I think these activities could be useful in so many places too:
- game rooms at home
- bars/pubs
- cafés
- arcades
- schools or youth/community centers
- parks
- businesses (especially self-owned businesses)
Talking about businesses, it could make them more interesting. For example, we could create a small board-game café, an arcade, or a pub with billiards, darts and foosball where customers actually play together instead of everyone doing their own separate activity.
I thought about this especially because Kjun already mentioned improving group activities for friends and couples, group actions and a competitive system where interactions can have a winner and loser in the 2026 roadmap:
Kjun has also talked about improving group activities and simultaneous interactions in general:
Of course this doesn’t mean any of these games are announced. I just think small social games could eventually be a really nice way to make use of those improvements.
I don’t think this needs to become some huge “sports system” either. Even adding a few more functional objects over time could already give Zois more natural things to do when hanging out together. Of course it should be possible to add these objects on public properties like the Bliss Bay plaza.
Sometimes I don’t need another giant feature. I just want to invite some friends over, play a board game, absolutely destroy someone at table football and then demand a rematch. ![]()
Please feel free to add more ideas to the list so we can have a little collection of activities​![]()
