Expanded Book, Movie, and Game Systems

I really enjoy that ZOIs can write books in different genres. I was wondering if we could also have more genre-specific book options in bookshelves and libraries. It would be great to see a ZOI read not just a generic novel, but an adventure novel, horror novel, etc., with their emotions linked to the genre: feeling flirty after a romance novel, scared after horror, creative after fantasy, and so on.

This would require more book objects (which could be moddable in the future). Each bookshelf could have its own inventory, allowing ZOIs to choose from a list of titles. If they want to buy new books, they could visit a bookstoreโ€ฆ or browse freely at the library.

This system could also extend to movies and video games. For example:

  • A rotating selection of two or three movies at the theater each day

  • Blu-ray/DVD shelves functioning like bookshelves for movie collections

  • Video game tournaments between ZOIs playing the same game

These additions would open up new social activities like book clubs, movie nights, or gaming competitions, adding even more depth to ZOI interactions.
