1. Realistic Personal Hygiene in inZOI
Each NPC and player would have detailed routines that impact appearance, mood, and health:
Bathing & Hair
- Choose between a quick shower (washing only the body) or a full shower (body + hair).
- Shampoo, conditioner, and hair treatments can be purchased in stores.
- Drying hair:
- Natural air-drying (takes longer, less styled).
- Hair dryer (purchased in-store → faster and better-looking results).
- If you don’t wash for several days → hair and body become dirty → affects social interactions and mood.
Skincare / Skin
- Daily skincare routine: cleanse, tone, moisturize, sunscreen.
- Different products give different results:
- Basic lotion → keeps skin healthy.
- Premium serum / cream → improves appearance, reduces tiredness, acne, and wrinkles.
- Ignoring the routine → acne, dry skin, and irritation appear, affecting visuals and social life.
Oral Hygiene
- Brushing teeth, flossing, and using mouthwash.
- Premium products or dental treatments can be purchased → better smile, prevents bad breath.
Clothing & Scent
- Clothes accumulate dirt and odor if worn for too long.
- Soap, detergent, or automatic laundry services can be purchased → clean clothes with a pleasant scent.
2. Realistic Shopping System
To access specific products, the player must:
- Go to a physical store or shop online within the game.
- Products range from basic to luxury, affecting the results:
- Basic shampoo → cleans hair.
- Premium shampoo → cleans + adds shine + stylish animation.
- Simple hair dryer → dries hair, no styling.
- High-end hair dryer → dries faster + styled hair + extra animation.
This creates a realistic maintenance loop, just like real life: you need to go shopping, spend money, and plan your routine.
3. Impact on Gameplay
- Appearance, mood, social interactions, and health all depend on hygiene and skincare.
- NPCs also follow these routines, making the world feel alive: some may “notice” if you’re dirty, while others may recommend products or give care tips.
- Option to do everything manually or speed things up with store-bought products → lifestyle freedom
Consumable Products in inZOI
Nothing is infinite — everything is realistic 
- Shampoo, conditioner, cream, soap, toothpaste → run out with use
- Sunscreen also runs out and needs to be reapplied during the day
- Hair dryers don’t run out, but they can:
- Consume energy
- Break over time
- Require maintenance or replacement
When a product runs out:
- The Zoi tries to use it → can’t
- A notification appears, like: “Shampoo has run out”
- You need to buy a new one at a physical store or online
Manual Application on the Zoi’s Body
Everything is applied directly to the body for full immersion:
- Apply moisturizer to arms, legs, and face
- Apply sunscreen before going out in the sun
- Skincare is done in front of the mirror, with realistic animations
- Each body part may need different care
If you don’t apply it:
- Skin becomes dry
- Sunburn can occur
- Appearance worsens
- Mood decreases
Sunscreen With Real Impact
Very real-life vibes:
- Going out in the sun without sunscreen → sunburn, red skin
- Sunscreen has limited duration → needs reapplication
- Premium sunscreen lasts longer and protects better
Realistic Routine Loop
Basically:
- Use the products
- They run out
- You need to buy more
- Plan your expenses
- Choose between basic or premium
This makes the game:
- More immersive
- More strategic
- More mature and realistic
- Feel like “real life,” not an automatic game
Bag / Backpack System in inZOI
Each Zoi can have a personal bag, backpack, or tote, and you decide what goes inside:
The bag can include:
Phone
Makeup / lip balm- Sunscreen / cream
Sunglasses
Keys
Book
Drink
Beachwear / bikini
Wallet
Mini skincare items
Nothing is fixed. You choose everything.
Real Impact of What You Carry
What’s inside the bag affects gameplay:
- Bring sunscreen → reapply it at the beach
- Bring makeup → touch up while outside
- Bring a book → read in the park or on a towel
- Bring nothing → you’re limited
If you forget something at home… that’s it — you’ll need to go back or buy it.
Bag Sizes & Styles
- Small bag → limited space
- Tote / large bag → fits almost everything
- Backpack → ideal for work, school, travel
Style + function:
- Fashion bag
- Beach bag
- Practical backpack
NPCs Also Use Bags
NPCs can also:
- Take items out of their bags
- Offer something they’re carrying
- Ask to borrow items
- Be missing items because they forgot them
This makes the world feel alive and organic, not robotic.
Extra Details (the classy touch)
- Opening the bag → animation
- Items visible depending on context
- Bag gets heavier when full
- Items can be lost if the bag is messy
The bag becomes an extension of the Zoi’s life, not just a decorative accessory.
