Find Cheats for Your Favorite Games

    Discover free game cheats, codes, tips, and walkthroughs from our community-powered cheatbook database

    What is CheatBook?

    CheatBook is a community-maintained library of game cheats, cheat codes, unlockables, Easter eggs, and player strategies for PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, and mobile games. Every entry is submitted by a player who has actually used the cheat, then reviewed by a human moderator before it appears on the site.

    We built CheatBook because the old cheat-code sites players grew up with are gone, broken, or buried under pop-ups and download buttons. Our version is straightforward: no downloads, no cracked files, no modded APKs — just clear instructions, honest warnings, and the platform-specific details you need to make a code actually work on your copy of the game.

    Whether you're looking for a god-mode code to get past a wall of a boss, a level-select shortcut so you can replay a favorite chapter, or a hidden Easter egg left behind by the developers, CheatBook is the fastest way to find it and understand what it will and won't do to your save file.

    How CheatBook works

    Using CheatBook is simple: you search for a game, pick the platform you are playing on, and browse a list of verified cheats and unlockables that other players have already tested. Each entry shows exactly what to do — whether that's a console command, a button sequence, a secret menu path, or an in-game strategy — so you don't have to guess which version of the instructions applies to your copy.

    Before any cheat appears on the site, a human moderator checks the instructions, confirms the platform and edition, and adds warnings about disabled achievements, corrupted saves, or patched-out codes. If you have a working cheat we don't list yet, you can submit it in minutes and the community can rate or improve it once it goes live.

    1. Search your game

    Type a title into the search bar or browse by platform. Every game page groups cheats by type so you can find what you need in seconds.

    2. Read the full guide

    Each cheat lists the exact activation steps, the platform it works on, and any warnings about achievements, saves, or online play.

    3. Activate it safely

    Make a manual save first, follow the instructions carefully, and check the community notes for known side-effects before you continue.

    4. Share what you know

    Found a working code we're missing? Submit it in under a minute. A human moderator reviews every entry before it goes live.

    Popular game categories

    Some players know exactly what they want: a god-mode code for a tough boss, an infinite money cheat to skip grinding, or a level-select shortcut that lets them replay a favorite chapter. Others come looking for unlockable costumes, secret characters, developer Easter eggs, or community-tested strategies for competitive single-player modes. Our browse page is organized around these real-world use cases, so you can filter by the kind of advantage or discovery you are after rather than scrolling through every page for a single title.

    PC players often rely on developer console commands, while console players need precise button sequences and timing notes. Mobile players want in-app strategies that work without modded APKs. Because every category is tied to specific platforms, you can jump from the cards below straight into a filtered list of cheats that actually work on your hardware and version.

    Community highlights

    CheatBook is more than a static database. The best pages are built by players who take a few minutes to document something they discovered, then refined by moderators and other players who confirm the steps or add a missing warning. That feedback loop keeps instructions accurate across different game editions, re-releases, and remasters, which is why a five-year-old page can still help someone playing the latest version of a classic.

    New submissions come in every day from every kind of player: speedrunners who optimize routes, achievement hunters who need to avoid disabled trophies, and casual players who just want to see the final level without spending twenty hours grinding. By joining the community, you are not only helping the next player save time — you are also preserving the kind of plainly written, reliable cheat knowledge that used to live in magazines and printed guidebooks.

    Why players trust CheatBook

    • Human moderation. Every submission is reviewed by a real person before it goes live. Broken codes, spam, and unsafe advice never make it onto a game page.
    • Platform-specific instructions. A PC console command isn't the same as a controller button sequence. We tag every cheat with the exact platform and edition it was tested on.
    • Honest warnings. If a cheat disables achievements, corrupts saves, or is patched out in the latest update, we say so at the top of the page — not buried in the comments.
    • No downloads, ever. CheatBook does not host trainers, cracked files, or modded APKs. Everything on the site works with your legitimate copy of the game.

    Frequently asked questions

    Are the cheats on CheatBook legal to use?+

    Yes. Every cheat we publish is either an in-game code left by the developers, a documented console command, or a legitimate strategy — no piracy, no modded game files, and no third-party software that violates a game's terms of service.

    Will using a cheat disable achievements or trophies?+

    Sometimes. Many single-player games disable achievements while cheats are active. Each cheat page lists a warning if that behavior is known, and we recommend making a manual save before entering any code so you can revert.

    Can I use these cheats in online or multiplayer modes?+

    No. CheatBook only publishes cheats intended for offline, single-player, or private sandbox use. Using cheats in competitive online modes almost always breaks the game's terms of service and can result in bans.

    Do you host game mods, cracked APKs, or trainers?+

    Never. CheatBook does not host downloads. We only list codes, button sequences, console commands, and in-game strategies. If a cheat requires an external tool, we link to the developer's own documentation instead of redistributing files.

    How do I submit a cheat I know?+

    Head to the Submit page, choose the game and platform, and paste the code with a short description of how to activate it. A human moderator reviews every submission before it goes live to make sure the instructions are clear and safe.

    Which platforms does CheatBook cover?+

    PC (Steam, Epic, GOG), PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and mobile (iOS and Android). Older consoles are supported when the community submits cheats for them.

    A community database of game cheats

    CheatBook grows every day thanks to players who take the time to document what they've found. That means the site works best when you both use it and contribute back to it — a code you take five seconds to submit can save the next player an hour of frustration. If you've been gaming long enough to remember dog-eared cheat magazines and the printed guidebooks that came with your favorite games, this is our attempt to bring that same spirit online: reliable, plainly written, no gimmicks.

    Every cheat here is submitted by a player and reviewed by a human moderator before it goes live. Each entry lists the exact steps to activate the cheat, warnings about achievements and online play, and platform-specific notes so you know what to expect before you use it.
