    How To Swim in InZoi: Island Getaway by Completing and Solving

    Swimming is now available in InZoi with the Island Getaway DLC. You can visit beach resorts, and pools are an essential part of these locations. Improving your swimming skill will also help you explore ocean waters more effectively.

    If you want to stay longer in the water and develop your swimming ability, having a pool at home is very helpful. You can buy houses that already include pools or build your own from scratch. Imagine jumping into the pool right after waking up or just before breakfast.

    ## How To Swim

    You can swim either in public pools or in the ocean by the beach. Public pools are located at parks and other places marked on the map. Building a pool at your house makes it more convenient to practice and grow your swimming skills.

    Young Zoi tend to improve their Aquatic Ability skill instead of just swimming, which serves as a good prep for future skills.

    To swim, just select a pool and press the “Go” button to jump in and relax. When at the beach, you will automatically start swimming as you walk into the water.

    Swimming can drain a lot of energy, so make sure your needs are full before heading into the ocean. Spending too much time will make you feel tired, and after three hours, you’ll drown, plus your character will move slowly. It’s recommended to use a tube in pools for relaxing, as it doesn’t use energy. As your swimming skill levels up, you’ll swim more efficiently and face less risk from sharks or other dangerous creatures in the sea.

    ## How To Build A Swimming Pool

    In the build menu, go to the “Exteriors” tab and select “Swimming Pools.” Here, you’ll find different options to either build preset pools or create a custom design. You’ll see pool walls that you can choose based on how steep you want the sides to be. To shape your pool, drag lines from one point to another to enclose the boundary. You can also add paint and lighting for a better look.

    While pools are typically outside, you can also build them indoors if preferred. To enlarge an existing pool, build another boundary with the same wall length across it.

    It’s recommended to add a ladder so your Zoi can reach the pool easily. If there’s no ladder, your Zoi will simply jump in instead.

  • Mastering Lava Swimming in Hello Kitty Island Adventure

    Mastering Lava Swimming in Hello Kitty Island Adventure

    Lava appears in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, mainly around Mount Hothead. While it’s not widespread across the island, you’ll encounter lava-filled rocky areas occasionally, especially when trying to reach the Caldera.

    Instead of accidentally falling into the lava and being returned to where you started, consider acquiring the ability to swim in it! Gaining this skill isn’t easy, but it certainly makes exploring more manageable. In this guide, we’ll discuss how to swim in lava in Hello Kitty Island Adventure.

    What Skill Allows You to Swim in Lava?


    Instead of using a potion to swim in lava, you’ll receive this ability through a companion. When you achieve friendship level 19 with Retsuko, she grants you the Hot Stuff ability, allowing you to swim in lava.

    Friendship level 19 is quite a journey, so be sure to give Retsuko gifts every day. Her preferred gift is the Volcanic Guitar, made from two Ingots, two Sparks, and one Mechanism. This recipe can be obtained from Tophat once you reach friendship level four with him.

    Upon reaching friendship level 19 with Retsuko, ask her to tag along and you’ll automatically acquire the ability.

    Upon reaching friendship level 17 with Retsuko, you’ll unlock a quest entitled Swimming Lessons. Although the title might be misleading, completing this quest isn’t necessary for learning to swim in lava with Retsuko. Nevertheless, we recommend doing it as you’ll earn a cute little swimsuit.

    Why Swim in Lava?

    If you lack this ability, falling into lava will send you back to your previous spot on land. Navigating around areas filled with small rocks over a lava pool can be tricky, and it’s especially challenging on the mobile version of the game where precision is key.

    When you activate this ability, you can swim in the lava, gliding alongside Retsuko just like you would in water. There’s no time limit; you can explore at your leisure and even capture some photos.

    Keep in mind that not all lava is swimmable. Specifically, the lava in the Red Hot Rampage minigame doesn’t allow swimming; falling into this will still return you to your previous location.

    In general, swimming in lava is a great way to speed things up. Instead of crossing the lava bridge that moves across the lava from the Caldera, just swim through! This skill also proves useful during challenge courses like Hothead Hot Foot, which is set over lava.

    Mastering Swimming in Hello Kitty Island Adventure

    Hello Kitty Island Adventure offers various tools to help you navigate the island, with Flippers being one of the first essential items you’ll acquire. They enable you to take a dip in the water, allowing you to explore new areas.

    To get your Flippers, you must first find Keroppi, a friendly frog residing in Spooky Swamp. He’ll generously provide one of the necessary materials. However, locating the Straps can be a bit tricky since they’re safely tucked away in a chest. Once you’ve crafted your Flippers, you’ll be able to use water to access shortcuts and discover hidden spots.

    How to Craft Flippers

    Once you unlock Spooky Swamp, you can find Keroppi the frog there. Cross the bridge, and climb the purple hill with wooden planks. If you keep heading east, you’ll come across him.

    Ensure you have activated the Finding Flippers quest, which you can start by approaching any body of water.

    When you interact with Keroppi and reach a level one friendship, he will share the crafting plans for the Flippers with you. At the crafting table, combine one Fin and one Strap to make the Flippers.

    Keroppi will provide the Fins once you become friends, so that’s one part of the recipe covered. However, finding the Straps can be challenging since they aren’t found out in the open world nor given as quest rewards.


    The player has opened the chest which contained the straps in Hello Kitty Island Adventure.

    You can find Straps only inside a specific chest at this stage of the game. Head north into Spooky Swamp. If you walk along the wooden path above the water, you will discover the chest there.

    How to Swim

    Flippers will automatically activate when you enter water. Swimming significantly enhances your exploration in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, allowing you to take shortcuts. You can quickly reach Spooky Swamp by swimming from the right side of the large gate.

    Additionally, you’ll unlock new puzzles and areas that were previously unreachable. One of these new locations is Mount Hothead, which you can access by swimming northwest.

    You won’t run out of stamina while swimming, so feel free to explore to your heart’s content.
