Overview
The lottery is a Meow-based gambling activity in inZOI. Your Zoi can buy lottery tickets from stands around the city for 5 Meow each and potentially win payouts ranging from a small consolation amount to a jackpot of up to 1,000,000 Meow. While base outcomes are partially random, your Zoi's Karma level and dream state directly influence the odds of winning. A separate mechanic called the Intervene method can guarantee large payouts for Zois with maxed-out Karma.
How to Buy a Ticket
Find a lottery stand at a park, inside a shop, or on your own property.
Interact with the stand.
Select 'Buy a Lottery Ticket.'
Pay 5 Meow.
The result is determined immediately. Winnings (if any) are added to your Zoi's balance.

There is no limit on how many tickets you can buy per day. You can purchase multiple tickets in a row at the same stand.

Prizes
Lottery outcomes range from winning nothing to hitting the jackpot. Most unassisted ticket purchases return either nothing or a small consolation prize. With Karma boosts or the Intervene method, larger payouts become much more likely.
Outcome | Typical Payout | How to Achieve |
|---|---|---|
Loss | 0 Meow | Most common result with low or neutral Karma |
Consolation win | 3 Meow (net loss of 2) | Common result; partial return on the 5 Meow ticket |
Standard win | ~35,000 Meow | Typical payout when using the Intervene method or having very high Karma with a Four-Leaf Clover dream |
Jackpot | Up to 1,000,000 Meow | Rare outcome; best odds with Intervene method active |
Prize amounts may vary between sessions. The 35,000 Meow standard win and 1,000,000 Meow jackpot are based on player reports during Early Access and may be adjusted in future updates.
How to Increase Your Odds
Good Karma
Higher Karma correlates with better lottery luck. Build good Karma by:

Donating to charity
Performing acts of kindness toward other Zois
Compensating those you have accidentally harmed
Generally making ethical choices in daily life
Additionally, complimenting another Zoi who has good Karma can further boost your own lottery odds for a short time.
Four-Leaf Clover Dreams
If your Zoi sleeps and you see a Four-Leaf Clover in their dream thought bubble, rush to a lottery stand the very next day. This dream is a strong indicator of increased lottery luck. The window of boosted odds is temporary, so buy a ticket as soon as possible after waking up. Combining a Four-Leaf Clover dream with high Karma gives the best unassisted odds.
The Intervene Method
The most reliable way to win large payouts involves the Intervene action, which is tied to the Karma system. This method requires two Zois in the same household.
Max out Karma: Use meditation on a yoga mat or other positive actions to fill one Zoi's (Zoi A) Karma meter to maximum.
Use Intervene: Switch to the second Zoi (Zoi B). Open the city map, navigate to Karma Report, find Zoi A's Karma status, and click 'Intervene.'
Check the message: Switch back to Zoi A and check their phone for a message from 'Anonymous Supporter.' Select the 'Win the Lottery!' option.
Buy a ticket: Go to any lottery stand and purchase a ticket while the perk is active.
Collect winnings: The perk typically yields around 35,000 Meow per ticket, with a chance at the 1,000,000 Meow jackpot.
The Intervene action can be used once every 24 in-game hours as long as Zoi A's Karma remains at maximum. Buying a ticket consumes the perk; subsequent tickets without reactivation use standard odds.
Life of Abundance
Zois with the Life of Abundance desired life occasionally develop a 'Wants to Buy a Lottery Ticket' urge. Fulfilling this urge by purchasing a ticket satisfies the desire and may have a slight positive effect on the outcome, though the exact bonus is unconfirmed.
Tips
The 5 Meow ticket cost is trivial, so buying tickets regularly is a low-risk activity even without boosted odds.
Focus on building good Karma for consistent lottery luck. The Intervene method is the most reliable path to large payouts.
Watch for Four-Leaf Clover dreams. They are your best shot at a big payout without the Intervene method.
Building your own lottery stand saves travel time if you play frequently.
The lottery is one of several ways to earn Meow. See the Money Making Guide for alternatives like careers, business ownership, and fishing.
The Intervene method may be rebalanced in future updates since it was identified as potentially unintended during Early Access.
