Lagos Life is a social game first. The people at Amala Shitta or Quilox are mostly real players, and the relationship system works between them exactly like it does with the game's own characters.
Social actions
Tap a person at a venue (or press E on PC to see who is around) and you get a menu of social actions. Each needs a minimum relationship, moves the relationship by some points, and fills your Social need:
| Interaction | Needs relationship | Relationship | Success | Social |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| π Say Hello | β | +6 | 100% | +10 |
| π¬ Gist | -20 | +7 | 100% | +18 |
| π Crack Joke | 0 | +10 | 55% | +14 |
| π Hype Them Up | 5 | +9 | 80% | +12 |
| π Talk About Life | 25 | +12 | 100% | +24 |
| πΉ Hang Out | 30 | +14 | 100% | +30 |
| π€ Hug | 40 | +8 | 90% | +22 |
| π Flirt | 30 | +12 | 50% | +16 |
| π Kiss | β | +10 | 95% | +20 |
| π Make Out | β | +14 | 92% | +30 |
| π Ask to Be Bae | 65 | +20 | 55% | +20 |
| π Break Up | β | -30 | 100% | +0 |
| π Ask for Small Money | 50 | -12 | 60% | +4 |
| π Throw Shade | β | -15 | 100% | +4 |
Jokes and flirts can fail (and cost points); hugs and hype usually land. The Smooth Talker trait and the Sweet Mouth perk both add social success. "Ask for Small Money" works sometimes but lowers the relationship even when it works.

- After a short engagement, plan the wedding: pick a tier and a venue.
| Wedding | Cost | Guests | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|
| π Intimate ceremony | β¦300,000 | 10 | close friends, small chops and a cake |
| π Full owambe | β¦2,000,000 | 40 | aso-ebi, live band, jollof and money spraying |

Every anniversary adds Lagos Rep.
Babies and family
Married couples can start a family. Pregnancy lasts two in-game days, and a couple can have up to three children. Babies need feeding (β¦2,500 a time) and attention; a nanny (β¦45,000 a week from the Staff app) feeds and plays with them for you. A DNA test costs β¦150,000 if anyone has doubts. Older children can attend Charterhouse Lagos in Ajah, the most expensive school in the game, where parents get speech days, sports days and the school run.
Gifts
Players send each other money from the Bank app and food from chat, from a β¦2,000 plate of jollof to a β¦15,000 owambe party pack. Gifts are a big part of the culture, and also the most common route for scams, so read staying safe.
