Guide For New Players
By: Lyssa & Day
With help from our calculator, Vo
This guide is to help players new to the game or players who would like to assist others and help them along the way. Good luck & hope you enjoy PIMD!
Streamlining the Tutorial
Follow the story prompts to complete these tasks in order:
Step one: Decorate your room
Step two: Say something in chat
Step three: Party!
Step four: Upgrade (225k dorm mates: see ‘Upgrading’ & use ‘upgrade glitch’)
Step five: Party again till 100 hot packs & receive 10 root beers
Step six: Restart game to access hunt stories (may take up to an hour to show)
Disclaimer:
Tutorial stories may change or vary depending on the device. 100 hot packs & 10 root beers are consistently the story prior to accessing the main hunt.
There are other tutorial stories but these are not required to gain access to the main hunt and can be completed at another time.
Hunts
A hunt is an themed game event that allows players to earn various types of rewards. Most hunts range from 1-2 weeks, but a select few have run up to 3 weeks long. You can find the current and previous hunts announced in the events section.
Drops
During a hunt, players earn rewards by collecting drops to complete stories. Hunt Drops can be obtained from parties, boxes, and can be increased with a subscription from the store.
Lite Boxes are a particularly easy way to increase hunt drops. These boxes are available to you twice a day via story. Completing 1 party will give you 1 lite box. These typically contain anywhere from 50 to 250 main story drops.
Parties
Completing parties is the primary way to obtain hunt drops. Every day there is a Party of the Day, or POTD, that is randomly generated and is the only regular party to drop for the designated day. The POTD is not announced by the game. Instead, many clubs work together to help find it in this thread.
Some parties require EC items in order to be completed, these are known as Premium Parties. Pizza Pop, or PP, requires a Pizza Bikini and has a better payout than normal parties. Cat Cafe, or CC, requires a Hypnocat and has the highest payout available during regular hunts. PP allows a max of 250 main story drops per party, and CC allows a max of 500. More information and specifics on parties can be found in this thread.
Stories
Once you complete the tutorial, you’ll be able to access Stories! Story Rewards will largely help you throughout the game and allow you to earn different Hunt items.

Whenever a player completes a tier, the next one can be accessed by tapping the same phone icon. You’ll also notice that the icon will shake, and show the number of stories you have yet to view the requirements for. If you are interested in learning the rewards of future or past stories, check this thread for player updates.
Making Money
Besides partying for cash, PIMD banks are an extremely useful way to speedup the upgrading process. These can be received regularly by completing stories. Selling 1 PIMD bank gives you 7.5m. With the hundreds you receive by completing story tiers, you’ll be in the billions in no time.
Another way you may receive cash bonuses is by being hired. Each time you are hired, you will make some money. The maximum bonus from being hired is 1m so this is not something to rely on long term. Similarly, some kind players may choose to help you by giving a DVP. DVP can be thoroughly explained in this thread.
Upgrading
While going through the tutorial, you should put in 225k dorm mates. Putting in dorm mates in a new empty dorm, after your energy is gone, will give you an energy boost. We call this the ‘upgrade glitch’. You should use the upgrade glitch to get through the tutorial stories faster and gain more money from parties. After you have finished the tutorial stories and have access to hunt stories, you will be able to make more piggy banks.
Our Upgrading Advice:
Open & Fill first 32 Dorms with 600m dorm mates
This should cost about 22.2b all together, or a total of 2,960 PIMD Banks.
500 Drops = 400 PIMD Banks
1.5k Drops = 500 PIMD Banks
3.5k Drops = 600 PIMD Banks
8k Drops = 700 PIMD Banks
16k Drops = 800 PIMD Banks
You should be able to reach 2,960 PIMD Banks in roughly 1-2 hunts.
After this, we recommend opening 4 more dorms and filling them with 10b dorm mates (1,334 PIMD Banks)
Then you should start replacing your lowest dorm mates with 80b dorm mates (10,667 PIMD Banks)
It’s best to skip the even tiers and put in the odd tiered dorm mates, you can learn more about the dorm mates here. When considering your build, check out this guide that outlines the pro’s and con’s of strength vs even vs intel.
Max Plunder
Max plunder refers to the maximum amount of money you can make when hitting parties/players. To achieve max plunder, you need to have a certain amount of money invested in tutors, this amount changes based on your stats. To calculate this number simply substitute your stats into these formulas:
For KCS: Your stats x 15m
Ex. 5kcs: 5 x 15m = 75m
For MCS: Your stats x 15b
Ex. 3mcs: 3 x 15b = 45b
Game Rules & Regulations

Most Recent Silencing Policy Update
Forum Code of Conduct
Silences & Bans
Failure to comply with the rules above may result in a Silence. Silences are dealt in a tier based system and progressively get longer if a player continues to break the ToU. A player’s first silence is 24 hours, followed by a week, and then a month if the behavior persists. Players cannot speak in public channels or send gifts to other players throughout the duration of their silence. Although moderators silence players, they are not able to lift or remove silences. If you feel as though your silence was unjust, you can appeal by sending in a Help Ticket using the help button. This does not guarantee a lift of your silence.
In extreme cases, players may be banned rather than silenced and cannot return to the game unless the ban is lifted.

Curious about this pointIt’s best to skip the even tiers and put in the odd tiered dorm mates,
You need to add the player, open a chat PM with them, and hit the icon that looks like this:How do you sell items?
Wow I finally found the forums after playing for a couple of weeks lol I am having trouble figuring out some things and wondered where to go for help. I even joined a club when I first started playing, then I got frustrated and took a break for 3 days and was kicked out of the club.. So that frustrated even more I just came back to the game yesterday and was lucky enough to find another club. I almost gave up and quit the game permanently until I found the form and realized how to actually access it..smh at myself. Wish me luck that I will find the answers I need so that I can continue playing the game. Thank you too the people who started this thread I'm so thankful for you. Now I will start my journey to find out why my hire value is so low , But my strength is 50,254 and my intelligence is 35,060 I have 17 tutors most of them are 1000-5000 strength and 1,000 to 5,000 intelligence two of my tutors are mid-range to high strength /intelligence.... I thought my dorm tower was good too, I have 28 rooms rented 23 of them are fully upgraded tier 3's.... And 5 of them are tier fours partially upgraded. I also have a upgraded my pet to level 9 and I have a lot of upgraded items in my dorm room. Here's where the problem starts and I can't figure out, My hire value is only 12,086.. My jobs are all listed as very difficult, and last but pretty important I can't seem to make any money I only have 5.1 mill and my available strength for parties is low at 2.56m Intel is 1.81! I'm sorry I ended up making this a longer post I am just desperate to find out what I am doing wrong I really like the game and I don't want to leave but I'm very frustrated because I thought I was doing everything I needed to by having my tutors and my dorm Tower filled so far with 28 rooms rented..*takes a breath any advice, or should I just talk my tail between my legs and runalso if this reply or message should not be here please let me know and I will just delete it I'm sorry in advance for my frustration and long message. Thank you for reading

Deleting post.. sorry I'll find some other placeI only readed the last line![]()
I'm sorry I'm new I'm trying to find a way to delete this post ThanksI only readed the last line![]()
Your hire value is low because you haven't been hired more times. When people hire you it increases your value. You can ask to be hired or volleyed on campus/pub to make your hire value increase. Thats the only thing that affects that number. For future questions you can ask on the questions about pimd thread here, or you can join the discord and ask in the advice channel.Wow I finally found the forums after playing for a couple of weeks lol I am having trouble figuring out some things and wondered where to go for help.
