About

Pid is a 2012 puzzle-platformer developed by Might and Delight that blends adventure gameplay with inventive level design. The game is a story-driven experience that stands out for its distinctive hand-drawn artwork, polished presentation, and memorable soundtrack, which earned it the 2012 European Games Award in the Innovate Newcomer category. It's the kind of indie title that prioritizes creative vision and atmospheric design over cutting-edge graphics.

Pid is an extremely lightweight game that will run smoothly on virtually any modern PC. With a minimum RAM requirement of just 1 GB, you won't need a dedicated GPU to achieve smooth 60+ FPS performance—integrated graphics handle this benchmark with ease. Even budget laptops and entry-level systems from the last decade will run it without any graphics settings adjustments needed, making performance a non-issue for this indie platformer.

With a 60/100 rating, Pid offers a solid experience for fans of artistic indie games and puzzle-platformers. If you appreciate creative storytelling and clever level design over mainstream AAA production values, it's worth exploring.

Performance profile

October 2012 release. Pid targets mid-2000s-to-early-2010s hardware — any modern entry-level GPU (GTX 1650 tier or newer integrated graphics) handles it at 1080p Ultra without breaking a sweat.

Pid is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Extremely light — Pid runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

Pid follows the story of a young boy named Kurt, who is left stranded in an alien world. Kurt must travel through a number of different places; including parts of a castle and various places within a town, while defeating robotic enemies and befriending some of the locals in their struggle against a massive conspiracy so that he can return home. Kurt's primary method for traveling and solving puzzles is a beam that he is able to propel himself with.
