Programming Skill, Explained
The Programming Skill in InZOI is all about how good your Zoi is with computers and tech. It affects activities like:
- Coding and developing software
- Computer-based hobbies
- Even shady stuff like online scams or digital fraud (yep, it’s a thing!)
The higher the skill, the more your Zoi can do—and the more success they’ll have doing it.

How To Increase Programming Skill in InZOI
You’ve got a few solid options here. Let’s break down the best ways to train your Zoi’s programming skill:
1. Practice Programming on a Computer

This is the fastest and most direct way to boost the skill.
- Just click on a computer and choose a programming-related activity.
- Look for options like “Practice Coding” or “Work on Programming.”
- The longer your Zoi works, the faster they level up.
✅ Tip: Make sure your Zoi’s basic needs (like Hunger and Energy) are taken care of before a long coding session—they’ll focus better and level up faster.
2. Play Video Games
Surprisingly, playing games actually raises Programming too! It’s a bit slower than coding, but it’s:
- More fun for your Zoi
- A great way to build Fun and Programming at the same time
So if your Zoi just wants to chill while still being productive, this is a solid multitasking method.
3. Read Programming Books
No computer? No problem.
Your Zoi can head to a bookcase, hit the “Read” option, and choose a programming-related book. These range from beginner-friendly intros to advanced coding theory.
Books take more time to read, but they:
- Build the skill reliably
- Help your Zoi gain programming knowledge without screen time
- Let your Zoi stay productive even if they’re away from a PC

What’s the Payoff?
Leveling up the Programming Skill can unlock:
- New career paths (like tech jobs and freelance work)
- Secretive online activities that can earn your Zoi some quick Meow Coins
- Fun, unique interactions with computers and other Zois
