So your TV burned down because you forgot to turn it off, and now you’re $2,000 Meow short? Worry not, my beautiful Zois, because the inZOI gives you plenty of ways to earn back those cat coins or Meow, which is the in-game currency. Thankfully, there are methods to gain Meow faster than grinding it out 9 to 5 or waiting to hit it big as a K-Pop star.
How to Make Money (Meow) Fast in inZOI
First off, know that you usually don’t have to grind it out. While there are fast ways to earn Meow in inZOI, nothing is faster than cheating. You did it in The Sims 4, anyway, so you might as well do it here.
Money Cheat
Here’s how the money cheat works in inZOI:
- Save the game manually first.
- Open Psycat’s Guide (bottom right of the UI)
- Click on ‘Use Money Cheat’ on the bottom left of the guide panel.
This will instantly give you 100,000 Meow without any confirmation as long as you click it. Good luck getting rid of it. Feel free to reload to a poorer state if you get bored with the game, as one usual goal is to earn Meow the long way.
But for those who want to actually “earn” their Meow, there are legitimate in-game ways that don’t use cheats. Consider these methods for prolonging your gameplay and upping the immersion factor.
Karma Lottery
Turns out being a good model citizen in inZOI actually pays, and here’s how you can get lucky:
- Boost your Karma with good gestures and actions (the ones with the blue swirl icon).
- You can do this by interacting with other Zois and generally being nice to them. Max out your Karma.
- Once your Karma is maxed out, open ‘Edit City (M),’ Select Karma ‘Report, find your Zoi, and select ‘Intervene.’
- Wait for an anonymous text message, open it, and select ‘Winning the Lottery.’
- Buy a lottery ticket in one of the black lottery stalls (usually found in parks).
- You’ll then be rewarded with anywhere from 30,000 to 1 million Meow.
- Repeat the Karma Intervene process once every 24 hours as long as your Karma is maxed out for an unlimited number of lottery tickets.
With this method, you no longer have to work as you’ll be earning more Meow every day than being in a job in-game. It’s not clear how long this method will stick around or whether it will be present in the final release version, so you might as well make it last.
One drawback, of course, is that it’s only available for good Zois, but if you prefer being a bad Zoi while earning, just use the cheat as robbing people and ATMs take too long, and you’re breaking rules anyway.
