VIPs are special types of Bitizens that randomly appear in the tower's lobby, They cannot move in apartments but they grant bonuses or cut construction time when sent to a floor of the player's choice! Keep an eye out for the red VIP notification in the bottom left in-game. They will only appear during active gameplay or can be obtained from the Parachute Man every 30 minutes or so.

The lobby can hold a maximum of 5 VIPs, and they will stop appearing once the lobby is full. The player can force remove VIPs from the lobby by tapping the 'X' beside their name. However, this is wasteful and should be avoided where possible.


Using a VIP[]

VIP

When a VIP appears in the lobby, you will see a red notification icon (seen bottom-left) Tapping this will take you to the lobby and show the VIP list. Tap the VIP to place them in the elevator. Note that using the VIP overrides any bitizen currently waiting in the elevator - they will disappear and be replaced by the VIP.

You can take a VIP to any floor; when you stop on a floor, you will be asked if you want to let the VIP off on that floor or take them to a different floor. Dropping off the VIP allows them to use their special ability on the floor you have chosen. You can also deliver them back to the lobby for later use (simply press the down arrow if already at the lobby).

Note that if delivered to the wrong floor, a VIP's ability will be wasted and no bonus will be granted! For example, taking a Celebrity VIP (which gives bitizens their dream job) to an empty floor, or one where all bitizens are already in their dream jobs.

Types of VIPs[]

VIP-celebrity-lobby

a crowded dream lobby!

Celebrity[]

Celebrity

A Celebrity VIP will change a bitizens dream job to their current floor. It will affect the first worker (from top to bottom) whose dream job is not this floor. This only changes the bitizens dream job and does not affect their skill level.

If the floor is empty or all workers on it are already in their dream job, she will do nothing and you will have wasted her. Note this VIP can be sent to both a commercial or residential floor with the same effects.

The Celebrity is a female-only VIP with blonde hair. She wears a pink shirt, white pants and shoes, red earrings, and sunglasses.

Construction[]

Construction VIP

A Construction VIP will take 3 hours off the construction time of the floor they are sent to. If available, more than one of these VIPs may be sent to the same floor in order to further reduce construction time, and each one will take an additional 3 hours off. This VIP can only be used if there is currently a floor under construction within your tower.

Tip: Be sure to check the remaining construction time so that the VIP isn't wasted. For example, if there are only 15 minutes remaining on the new floor. It may also be wasteful using this VIP if it is evening, and the new floor will finish construction overnight either way.

The Construction is a male-only VIP. They wear an orange safety outfit with a yellow hard hat and black shoes.

Big Spender[]

Big Spender New

A Big Spender VIP will buy out the entire stock of a random item which still has stock in the floor you have sent him to. If there’s only one item in stock, he will buy out the entire stock of that item. It is best to use him on a floor which has the highest level and the most stock in every item to make the most money out of him.

If the VIP is sent to a floor with no stock at all, or to a residential floor, he will not buy out anything and you will have wasted him. Big Spender VIPs can only be used if there is at least one item in stock on a commercial floor in your tower.

The Big Spender is a male-only VIP with brown hair. They wear a green outfit with sunglasses, a black hat, and a yellow tie and shoes.

Tip: The best thing to do with Big Spender is to use him on a commercial floor with only one stocked item that requires at least 1 hour 20 minutes to stock (typically the third item on the floor). For example, the Modern Couch from the Furniture Store or the Bust from the Sculpting studio. Also see the Soda Brewery page for guides, as this floor has the most stock in-game!

See the List of All Floors for a sortable list of high-stock items.

Delivery[]

Delivery VIP

A Delivery VIP will fully stock all 3 items on the floor they are sent to, no matter if the items are on sale, re-stocked, or sold out. If sent to a residential floor, or a commercial floor with fully stocked items, you will have wasted him.

Tip: If you have built a new commercial floor with all 3 slots empty, and require an additional residential floor to acquire workers, use this VIP in the meantime! They will fully stock the floor where it would be otherwise empty, increasing profits temporarily until you can build another apartment and hire bitizens permanently.

The Delivery is a male-only VIP. They appear in a brown outfit and hat, with black shoes, and gold badges on their hat and outfit.

Real Estate Agent[]

Real Estate Agent

If a Real Estate Agent VIP is taken to a residential floor, they will move a bitizen into each vacant space on that floor, adding up to 5 bitizens to your tower. You must have at least one residential vacancy in your tower to use this VIP.

Tip: If this VIP appears and all your residential floors are full, see if you have one or more low-skill bitizens you could evict and replace on one of your residential floors. The VIP ensures that all vacancies on the floor will be immediately filled. However, there's always a chance that the new bitizen(s) will have skills equal to or worse than the former evictee(s).

The Real Estate Agent is a male-only VIP with dark hair. They wear a blue suit with a red tie and black shoes.


Other VIPs[]

These VIPs have been added on a later update of this game, and they provide different bonuses from the ones we have today.

  • The Influencer VIP - If delivered to a commercial floor, it will give the Customer Rush on that floor for 5 minutes.
  • The Billionaire VIP - If delivered to a commercial floor, it will buy out all the products in that store. If used in a Soda Brewery, you can make lots of profit.
  • The Leprechaun VIP - "Try your luck" - The description of the Leprechaun when in the lobby.
