Cheats

Cheats are used for many reasons including story making, glitch fixing, just for fun or to make a tricky situation easier. There are cheats in The Sims, The Sims 2 and The Sims 3.

Cheat Mode
To get into to cheat mode press CTRL + SHIFT + C during game play. Once you are in cheat mode, simply type in the cheat and hit enter. Do this every time you want to use one of the cheats. Cheats can be repeated by typing the expression ";!" after the code. Ending the code with "!" will repeat the cheat indefinitely until the player either closes the cheat box or removes the colon.

Some computer versions of Windows, like Vista, may require you to press CTRL + SHIFT + WINDOWS LOGO + C in order to open the cheat console.
