Inzoi's build mode is like the Sims… Until it's not

Inzoithe first real attempt to compete with the Sims in Life Sims is here, unleashed through the early entry of steam, and naturally, players spend the first few hours in the game creating their own characters and messing up in build mode to see the types of dollhouses they can assemble. It doesn't make sense until you have everything else ready.
For those Sims who are eager to see what Inzoi gets, warn that Inzoi has some big quirks in building mode that you need to learn before getting started or you may accidentally tear the walls apart while trying to make it bigger. Fortunately, we provide you with our guide to INZOI build modes.
How is Inzoi's home game different from the Sims
If you're coming to Inzoi from Sims 4, you'll probably get used to building patterns where everything is context-sensitive clicks. Click an object to pick it up; clicking a wall allows you to move it to expand or shrink the contained room. You just need to click on what you want to manipulate and do it. The build pattern of Inzoi is much more complex than that, thanks in large part to its more customization options – but there are some fundamental differences from the Sims that may stumble on you in the beginning.

The first of these big differences is that you need to choose the right selection mode. By default, your cursor is using standard”Select Tool“It allows you to click and manipulate individual objects, such as sofas. When you are in mode, the moving wall will move The only one Walls – The room where the wall belongs to will not change from no walls anymore. If you want to change the size of your room or make your house bigger, you need to choose Room selection toolyou can find the right side of the standard selection tool on the Build Mode option bar near the top of the UI.
It's in that part of the build mode – the part you're dealing with furniture, appliances, and whatever else you might put into the house – you'll find another quirk you need to remember. Inzoi you can customize furniture You can customize your clothesbut you can only do this back You have placed the item. So, for example, you can select a sofa you like from the Build Menu, put it into your home, and click it to customize its options – then give you a whole bunch of options for textures and colors, and you can upload your own texture images yourself, or upload Inzoi's built-in AI Image Image generator to make one if you want. This can be done if you want all your furniture to be covered with photos of your dog.

After the fact, customization doesn't have any problems with things like refrigerators, but since you can put everything in build mode works the same way, on some things, this becomes a problem. For example, if you want to add a staircase that will rotate 180 degrees above halfway, you must first place a full direct flight staircase before bent. Since the purpose of such a staircase is to save the horizontal space occupied by the staircase, it works in this way, because you have to make room for a full normal staircase anyway. When it appears, you have to exercise a little to handle this.
Once you understand these two basic aspects, most builders are ready to go into Inzoi. Build pattern otherwise largely similar to SIMS's pattern, but with a redesigned UI. But if we forget to point out another weird thing about Inzoi's build pattern, we'll be fired.


When I set up my first ZOI family, I placed them on the first floor of a small apartment building in Dowon, which you can see above – it has a public space with a gym underground with three levels of living space above it. My family lives on the first floor on the first floor, but I quickly realized that I had no neighbors and there were no access points on the upper two floors.
The whole building belongs to my family and I just had to build a new staircase to get there-I had three times more work space than I thought, and my small apartment turned into a big house in a few minutes. This is a very surprising development because it's not how buildings like this work in real life, and the game doesn't try to tell me I can do it. This is something to remember when you start feeling like you need more space – you probably already have it.
