Talk, listen & be heard

Just walk up to them. When you're close enough you'll hear each other automatically — there's nothing to dial or connect. Step away to leave the conversation; the voices fade as you walk apart, exactly like real life.

That's proximity voice working as intended. The closer you are to someone, the louder they sound; as you walk apart their voice fades out, so a crowded plaza feels alive without everyone talking over each other. Drift back together and the volume comes right back up.

Yes. Tap 📞 Join Call to drop into an island-wide group call. Unlike proximity voice, a call you join never drops or fades as you roam — you stay connected to everyone in the call wherever you wander. It ends only when you choose to hang up.

Your browser asks the first time you actually speak, so try talking once — a permission prompt should appear. When it does, choose Allow. If nothing pops up, your browser may have remembered an earlier choice; see below to re-enable it.

No problem. Click the padlock(or camera) icon in your browser's address bar, find the microphone setting, and re-enable it for nyzaverse.com. Then refresh the page so the world picks up the change.

Two quick things to check: make sure the right input deviceis selected (some headsets and webcams add their own mic), and confirm you're not muted. Toggling your mute and speaking again usually does the trick.

First, turn your device volume up. Then make sure the browser tab itself isn't muted — a small speaker icon shows on a muted tab, and clicking it un-mutes the page.

Because you only hear people who are near you, standing alone means silence is normal. Walk over to a cluster of avatars and you'll start hearing them as you get close.

If everyone else sounds fine but a single person doesn't, they've most likely muted their own mic. There's nothing to fix on your end — ask them to check their microphone.

Press T, or tap the 💬 button, to open the chat panel. Type your message and send — emoji are welcome too.

There are three. World is the room everyone can see, Nearby reaches just the people around you, and direct messages let you write privately to anyone currently connected.

Absolutely — emoji work in every channel, from the World feed to a one-on-one direct message.

Open ⚙ Settings → Audio mixer. You'll find three independent volume sliders.

Three separate volumes: Music, World sounds, and Voice. They're fully independent — muting one never touches the others, so you can silence the soundtrack and still hear every word.

Yes. Each video screen has its own local 🔇 / 🔊 mute button. It only affects what you hear — everyone else keeps watching and listening as normal.
