Text the Zoi you're playing. They answer as themselves, with their own personality, moods, opinions and memories of you.
Text anyone in your Zoi's phone, as your Zoi. The conversation belongs to both of them, so friendships and stories can grow on their own.
Read receipts, reactions, quoted replies and typing dots that come and go. A Zoi might send a few texts in a row, leave you on read, or answer later. Switch to the Zoi who is writing back and you watch their words appear letter by letter.
52 traits in four flavors each, and two or three texting habits per Zoi, like all lowercase, one-word replies or a few short texts in a row. Stock phrases are left out, so two Zois with the same trait still don't text alike.
A promotion, a wedding, a breakup or a new life stage leaves its mark. For a while a Zoi might text quieter, prouder or bitter, then settle back. How you treat them counts too.
Zois remember what you talk about and how things changed between you. Memory is set to Long from the start. You can read, edit, pin or clear what they remember.
Kind words, fights and apologies move where you stand. Repeating yourself, leaving them on read or ignoring their calls is noticed too, and fades over a few days. Nothing counts against a Zoi of your household you weren't playing at the time.
Zois check in, pass on news and react to big moments, always for a real reason. They can ring you on the Android app too. You choose how often, or turn it off.
A Zoi only knows what they took part in, saw or were told. News travels in person and by text, and can be believed or doubted. Their card's Knows tab shows what they know, and you can fix it.
When Zois agree on a time and a place in a text, it goes on the game's schedule and plays out as a game event at a real place in your world. Each Zoi has their own name over their head, and people nearby can react. A party, girls night, dance party or study group is the game's own event, and if the AI that writes events fails or is too slow, the closest of the game's own events is used.
Ask a Zoi to eat, shower, dance or hug someone, and they do it with the game's own interactions. The Actions switch in Settings turns that off.
Text and call your Zois away from the PC, with notifications. With the game closed you can still read your chats, and texts you send go out when it opens. Your Dreami AI usage shows there too.
Call a Zoi from the Android app, or let them call you. Real spoken conversations, a different voice for each Zoi, speech that follows their mood.
Make a profile for yourself, and look through Zoi cards: personality, backstory, what they know, nicknames and your own notes. Choose Photo puts a picture of your own on any card.
Settings > Appearance switches the whole app between Light and Dark. The Android app keeps the same choice.
Chats, memories and profiles carry over through game updates. Back up and restore by hand, clear what you don't want, and manage your data.
Dreami AI is ready-made, in four tiers: Free, Cloud, Cloud Plus and Frontier. Or bring your own provider, from the big AI services to a model on your own PC, with no Patreon at all. For Dreami AI, link Patreon in the game or paste a key you make on daydreami.fyi.
No romance between a teen and an adult or within a family, and children have no phone. Weddings, break-ups and babies, and moves that can hurt a Zoi, stay off until you turn them on, in each save.
