iMafia iPhone Game: Tips and Tricks Up To Level 10


I've been playing iMafia on my iPhone now for weeks and there is still not enough info online about how to maximize money and streamline those early levels. I'm gonna share a few that I have seen that work pretty well.

OK, firstly, I have restarted iMafia over a dozen times to see how to maximize the beginning levels. Here are some things I've seen that could help you out:

1. To maximize energy regen, be a Workaholic - they get 1 energy every 4 minutes instead of every 5 minutes... basically they get 15 energy per hour instead of only 12.

2. Buy a Shotgun first and do the 7 energy missions - this mission gets you leveled quickly and allows you to collect some early cash

3. Buy a 2nd Mafia Member only before you buy property - you need 2 members to buy 10 pieces of land at once.

4. Buy 10 pieces of the same property at once - If you buy 1 outer city lot, you pay $5000 and can only get $2500 back. If you buy 10 you get them for $5000 a piece ($50000 total) and that jacks up the price of the next buy to $10000... Now you can sell the 10 outer city lots back later for $50000, so you dont lose a penny.

5. When you reach level 5, start the VW Bug quest as soon as possible - To do this, have all these done on your checklist: have a 2nd mafia member, have bought 10 outer city lots at once, have the cash to buy the VW Bug.

6. Skip the BMW quest and save up for the 3 Mercedes and 5 mafia members - You basically lose $90,000 getting a car and 3 weapons that you are just going to sell later, if anything, use that money to invest in more real estate (10 at a time)

7. In these early levels, NEVER Bank your money - It is very rare to be attacked below level 10

8. When looking for someone to fight, look for property holders and older accounts - They get a steady stream of income, and if they are older accounts, they are just money pits because they haven't been using the cash they're accumulating.

9. ONLY INVEST YOUR LVL POINTS INTO ENERGY - The faster your energy pool goes up, the less you need to check the game, the more missions you can do, and the more money you can pull in.

10. NEVER put out a bounty for someone - It's way pointless

11. NEVER pay for healing at the hospital - It's a huge money drain


That should get you through the early levels. As the game progresses you need to change up your strategy a bit. And I will comment on that another time. If anyone else has comments, hints, strategies, leave a comment and I'll add them to the list. Thanks

  1. Just to tell u another way around.

    i invested level point into stamina and atk/def just to overcome people in the my level.
    i hunt old player in the same level for living.
    Tricks are the same as your 8th rule and looking for players named relating to cash or food or anything with no meaning. Sound like a strange idea, right? But they are likely to be piggy banks for you to smash. i usually get $100,000 per fight, and need not to worry about deposit my money but invest those money in gangsters first, then weapon/armor/vechicle and lastly properties.

    (don't watse ur time try to get bounty kills if ur lvl is not high enough)

    the tip "Buy 10 pieces of the same property at once" is brilliant. I like that.

    Thanks for sharing
