Inzoi, South Korea's playful take on life simulation games, incorporates Stoicism themes, as noted by its producer, Hyungjun "Kjun" Kim. Amidst the charming aesthetics and character customization, the game subtly encourages emotional resilience through a third-person perspective on life's challenges. Kjun’s background in Stoicism informs the game’s message, suggesting that simulating life experiences can promote acceptance and enjoyment of reality. Released in Early Access by Krafton, Inzoi also features culturally relevant elements like K-pop schools, captivating players with both its gameplay and thought-provoking underlying philosophy.
"Observing someone's life and death from a third-person perspective in a simulation game can help us accept and enjoy real life with more ease," Kjun says.
"I'm personally a big fan of Stoicism," Inzoi's producer and director, Hyungjun 'Kjun' Kim, tells Inverse. "When creating Inzoi, I looked to Stoicism for guidance on what message I wanted to convey through the game."
