Ever wanted to press one button and watch all your fantasies become reality? Well, if you've been following us closely, you know there is a way to get some in-game bonuses… but there is a price to pay literally and figuratively.
Today we are talking about Cheats in Deluded. Secret Store was covered earlier in this post—don’t miss out!
Here, take a look:
Basically, the cheats allow you to adapt your gameplay to your liking. You want some snow? Here you go. Don’t feel like completing a quest to lay your hands on a piece of clothing you’ve been eyeing? Wish granted. Who needs to work out when you can drag a slider and make your butt and back look snatched? You can get infinite stamina, unlock all doors and dialogue options—the possibilities are endless, really. It’s like motherlode in Sims: addicting, but it takes away a lot of the fun.
How do I open the cheats menu?
Make sure to do the following:
- Download the game version with cheats
- Enable the cheats at the start of the game
- Press F1 to use cheats in the game
As of v0.4.1 closed beta we have an ongoing problem with cheats, they occasionally stop working because of the default and cheat versions clashing; the fix is in progress.
What can I do with cheats?
- Get as much money as you like (enter the required amount, press Enter); spawn almost any item you want (it will appear in your inventory; excludes Secret Store-only items)
- Unlock all dialogue options (works even if you don’t have the required quest items or stats!)
- Get infinite stamina—no more getting tired while running
- Have 100% chance of triggering random events and dialogue options
- Change weather and time (skip time to unlock day/time-specific quests)
- Tweak any attribute, skill, need, FX and Alisa’s state of your liking (yes, you can totally go crazy, there are about 180 characteristics to change!)
To make things easier, there’s a Favorites tab. Mark any option (attributes/spawning items section) with a star and you’ll find it all in one place! The search bar helps you navigate instantly (just type in whatever you are looking for).
Is it worth it to play Deluded with cheats?
Depends on what your goal is. If you are looking for a way to wind down after a hard day, yes, it is. If you want the full experience, where the hardships actually make the gameplay rewarding, then no.
Deluded’s world was designed with gradual progression in mind. Mindlessly jumping through the dialogues, for example, may mar the experience. Maybe—just maybe—take in the world as we built it at least once before going wild with sliders 😉
Can I use the cheats without ruining the experience?
If you use it wisely, yes, you can! Experiment with different character builds—test how different stats affect the gameplay without spending too much of your precious time. Pro tip or what I like to do: keep one save for your main playthrough and a few separate ones to see the cut-scenes and routes exclusive to the other attributes. Try on funky outfits, change Alisa’s appearance, get some extra money to help yourself out. Just don’t get carried away! ...Unless it’s your intention.
Besides, you don’t have to go “all sliders max” or nothing. Each option can be turned on or off independently, so you can mix a little cheat here and there without unleashing full chaos.
Set up a personal mini-challenge!
Try tweaking your attributes for a themed run or amplify one side and sacrifice another. You get the maximum GRC but… can’t spawn items using cheats. I like to call this one High Grace, Low Gear. Be a true jock: make Alisa muscular and strong, but keep her INT at zero. Make a name for yourself as a fashionista: get all the fancy clothes, but never wear panties. Wait. That sounds like a good thing.
Will the cheats version be available on Steam?
Still thinking about it, but it will probably come out as DLC. Be advised that achievements in the cheat mode will be disabled!
Most importantly, enjoy yourself. That’s the whole point!
Yours faithfully,
Lantsova
