Relationships
Friendship
Friendship between mutual friends goes up by itself while you are together: near each other, seated side by side, in the same vehicle and, best of all, working side by side or playing pool or karaoke at the bar.
The levels are:
- Acquaintance
- Buddy
- Friend
- Best friend
There is a daily limit, so reaching Friend takes at least two days of play together. Two people of the same family don't level up.
Following a friendship
Open your player profile and tap Relationships. The people with you now are at the top, under With you now. Tap a person to see their page: the points to the next level, whether it is Going up now and, when it is stopped, why (you are too far apart, someone is away, only one of you is in a vehicle) or that the limit was reached. Far from each other, the page only shows how things are.
- Near (up to 4 metres): +1 per hour
- Seated, eating or in the same vehicle: +2 per hour
- Pool or karaoke at the bar, or working side by side: +3 per hour
- Giving Coins face to face: +10, once a day
The page shows how long you still need next to the person. With romance it also shows the hearts and whose turn it is to flirt; dating, the dates and the date going on. Tap Keep on screen to close the window and keep that person's progress in a small card under your player profile while you play.
While you are together, a 🤝 +1 pops above your friend's head each time the friendship goes up (a ❤️ when you two chose romance), and a card at the top of the screen shows the bar growing. A new level opens a big popup to celebrate it.
Birthdays
On the birthday of a friend or of someone in your family, a 🎂 shows next to their name in Messages and in Family all day. On your birthday, the first time you enter the game that day there are fireworks for you.
Flirting
If you don't want flirts, switch off Accept flirting in Settings. Whoever picks the Child look stays out of romance: no flirting, dating or marriage, and someone dating, engaged or married can't change to it.
When you two become Best friends, the new level's popup asks each one: Romance or Friendship? Your pick asks for a confirmation before it counts. Nobody sees what the other picked. If it was not Romance on both sides, the question comes back every time you meet, until both pick Romance. To stop it, tap Don't ask again. Someone who already has a romance with another player is not asked. Neither are two people of the same family: inside a family there is no dating, only marriage, asked on the Family screen. A couple who was already together stays together. To give up a romance before dating, open the person in Relationships, tap Give up the romance and type I am aware of the consequences: the hearts go out, you go back to being just friends and the question never comes back.
If both picked Romance, the ring above the other player's head shows Wink 😉 and Blow a kiss 😘. A flirt only counts when both flirt with each other: each returned flirt is a ❤️, at most one a day.
Dating
Each new heart shows on screen. With 3 hearts, Ask out appears on the other player's profile, and the screen tells you. Dating, you can hug, kiss and hold hands.
Every player's profile shows whether they are single, dating, engaged or married, and to whom. For married players it also shows the couple's ring.
Proposing
- To propose you need 5 dates: 15 minutes together at a date place (the bar, the beach, a bench, a grandstand, the fountain square, or eating together), one a day.
- Then Propose appears. Whoever proposes picks the ring: the simple one is free, gold, rose gold and diamond cost Ora.
- If the answer is yes, you are engaged.
Oba oba
Lying together on a double bed, at home or in a Hotel room, a romance couple can have an Oba oba: tap the other player and pick 🛏️. The other has to accept. Both end up under the blanket, which moves for 30 seconds, and whoever is around sees it. It always gives a ❤️ (with all 5 hearts already full, it gives friendship points). It also fills the vigor from 0 to 100 in those 30 seconds, much faster than sleeping.
The wedding
Engaged couples choose the day with Pick the day, from 3 days ahead. Each church holds one wedding a day, at 17:00, and the couple can invite up to 50 guests.
Once the day is picked, My look has the Wedding outfit for each of the two, until a day after the ceremony: the Suit or the Wedding dress, with a full skirt down to the floor with a tulle layer, a sash with a bow, a train and puff sleeves, which comes with a crown of flowers on the hair and a veil down to the waist.
Once married, you can also order the Wedding suit or the Wedding dress at a Boutique, to wear whenever you like while you are married, in the Wedding tab of My look.
On the day, when both are in the church, the ceremony plays like a film scene: the couple dressed up, the priest's words, each one says "I do", the kiss and the walk out under the rice. 🎉
Married life
Only married couples can:
- Share plots and houses: go in as the owner does and invite friends there.
- Drive the spouse's vehicle.
- Feed and pat the spouse's pet, and play videos on the TV of the spouse's home.
- Decorate the home with the spouse inside.
- Join the spouse's family, or keep their own.
- Change the couple's ring in the Rings tab of the Ora Store: the new one is for both.
Family
Whoever creates a family is its administrator. In My character → Family, the administrator can remove a grown-up member: that person leaves the family and is left with no family. Make administrator hands the family to another grown-up member: a family has only one administrator.
Leaving the family
In Family, Leave the family leaves you with no family, and only your name is shown. With no family, type a name and tap Create a new family to start your own, or wait for a family's invite.
Marrying inside the family
Inside a family there is no dating. In Family, a grown-up of your family in the same city shows Marry: first you pick the couple's ring (the simple one is free, the others are paid with Ora) and, when they accept, you two are married at once, with no flirting, dates or ceremony.
Family tag
Under your name, everyone sees a small tag with who you are to someone: Wife of…, Boyfriend of…, or what you are to someone in your family, like Son of… or Mother of….
Nobody types it. Dating, engagement and marriage come from your real relationship, and the family tag only names people of your own family. In My character → Family tag, choose which one shows: your partner, someone of your family and what you are to them, or none.
Family tree
In Family, Family tree shows everyone in your family with their face, one row per generation, and each couple together with 💍. It starts from what the game knows: married couples and family tags.
You are highlighted and each card says what the person is to you, like Mother, Brother or Grandmother. Tap someone else to see what everyone is to them.
