About the Game

'Premium' virtual pets.

Bjois (pronounced "Byoys") is a top-down simulation game, inspired by titles such as Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld. In Bjois, everything is automatic. Bjois choose activities, gain levels and spend their precious GOOP according to their own whims. Where Bjois differs from similar titles is that they also do everything a player might: exploring, building, and even ■■■■■■ the ■■■■■■■■. 

Watch as your mob of Bjois grows into a chaotic ecosystem of interactive fellas. You can take control of them, and try Bjoi life for yourself. You can direct them with an RTS-like control scheme too! If playing God doesn't do it for you, treat Bjois as a bird-watching exercise. Track your progress, read detailed information, and expand your collection of Bjois using the handy in-built Catalogue feature. There are over two hundred Bjois to identify!

So sit back and watch your new virtual pets get into all kinds of mischief.
