Getting Started Guide
From signup to your first hatched pet: 1,000 free MPC, a 100 MPC nest, your first egg, and the daily loop that keeps coins coming in.
Welcome to MiroPets! Every new account starts with 1,000 MPC (MiroPets Coins) and a 20-slot backpack. This guide walks you from signup to a hatched pet and a daily routine, in the exact order the game expects.
Step 1: Sign up and check your mail
Create an account with a username of 3-16 lowercase letters and numbers. Your 1,000 starting coins are deposited immediately, and a welcome message from Luke is waiting in your Mail.
Step 2: Buy a nest
Eggs need a nest to be adopted, and new accounts do not come with one. Head to the Nesting Nook shop and buy any nest for 100 MPC (Cozy Nest, Greenest, Leafnest, or Rainest all work the same). See Shops for how shop stock works.
Step 3: Adopt your first egg
Visit the Adoption Center, where Kara will greet you. Current live settings:
- 9 eggs are on offer, and the selection refreshes every hour - keep an eye out for the occasional Mystery Egg.
- You can adopt one egg every 12 hours.
- Adopting consumes one nest.
- You name your pet at adoption: 3-16 characters, lowercase letters and numbers only, and the name must be unique across the whole site.
- You can own 3 pets to start; the Pet Permit item raises your limit.
Full rules are on the Adoption Center wiki page.
Step 4: Watch it hatch and start caring
Your egg hatches into a baby exactly 15 minutes after adoption - eggs do not need feeding and never lose stats while waiting. Once hatched, your pet has three care stats (hunger, happiness, health), each starting at 100 and slowly decaying over time. Feed it food items, play with toys, and treat sickness at the Vet. See Pet Stats Explained and Feeding and Caring for Pets.
Babies grow into adults at 2,500 XP, gaining Attack, Defense, and HP for the Pet Arena. XP comes from games, books, training, and daily care - see Pet Stats Explained.
Step 5: Earn your first coins
The reliable early earners:
- Daily quests - you get 3 on your Dashboard every day, each paying coins. Complete all 3 every day to build a streak; a 7-day streak pays a 1,000 MPC bonus.
- Games - most have daily play limits, so plays reset each day.
- Pantry - claim one free donated item every hour.
- Wishing Well - a random item for 1 MPC every 12 hours.
The full list lives at How to Earn MPC.
Good habits
- Keep at least 100 MPC on hand so you can always afford your next nest.
- Adopt on cooldown: one egg every 12 hours means a full pet family within two days.
- Do all 3 daily quests every day - the streak bonus is the biggest single payout available to a new player.
- Follow the Daily Routine Checklist once you know the basics.
