Urges are random short-term desires your Zoi gets as they navigate their life. These wants are based on who your Zoi is and what they hope to do with their life, so the urges for each specific Zoi you make usually look pretty different.

All urges have a specified time limit, so completing them swiftly is crucial to claim the rewards for doing so. Each unique urge you complete grants you some Meow Coins to spend and puts your Zoi in a specific mood, usually one tied to the theme of the urge you finished, for a while afterward.

Every urge is different in inZOI, so the exact task you need to complete for each one varies. They all involve completing a very specific quest based on the name and description you’re given. These two factors should usually be enough to point you in the right direction, but sometimes, you might need a bit more to get going.
