Revision 1

overview

Zois progress through 9 life stages. Rather than aging gradually, they transition instantly from one stage to the next, with their appearance changing immediately. One in-game Zoi Day lasts 96 real-world minutes by default, and players can adjust this in settings. There is no way to completely stop aging or prevent death from old age.
