Preliminary information

I’ll start right away by talking to you about some aspects that I think you should know before proceeding with the activation of the cheats in The Sims. The first thing you need to know is that, on PC and console , using cheats in The Sims is absolutely allowed and safe: there is no risk by activating them. He thinks that it is even the game’s developer, Maxis, who encourages the use of tricks, also because by using them you can access new possibilities of play and creation.

On the contrary, however, on smartphones and tablets the use of tricks is not an officially supported practice, so using them involves resorting to solutions that are almost never safe and often dangerous for the device itself. I’ll give you more information about it in the dedicated chapters of this tutorial .

Although the use of cheats in The Sims for PC and console is allowed, I have to make, even in this case, an important clarification. In fact, it seems fair to inform you that, when they are activated, the unlocking system of Achievements and Trophies is automatically deactivated .

What does this mean? I’ll explain it to you right away, with an example: when you play The Sims 4 on PlayStation 4, as in all other games for this console, you can unlock awards for reaching certain milestones, called Trophies. These Trophies are won for the skill demonstrated by the player and, therefore, unlocking them through tricks would be like cheating, therefore unfair towards healthy competition between players.

Do you ask me how to use the tricks without interrupting the unlocking of Trophies and Achievements? The solution is very simple. Since the trick is associated with saving game progress, my advice is to create two saves : one to play around with the tricks, the other to show your prestige without “cheating”.

In this regard, it seems fair to point out that you must also create new saves after using the cheats, because it will not be enough just to change Sim’s family or buy a new home.

Now I have given you all the preliminary information of the case: you are therefore ready to find out how to activate the cheats on The Sims .

How to activate the cheats on The Sims for PC

The latest version of The Sims for PC is, at the time of this writing, the fourth. How do you say? Is this your favorite version? Then, I’ll tell you more. The method to activate the cheats in The Sims series for PC has always been the same, so if you play The Sims 4 or a previous chapter, you can refer to what I’m about to tell you about the activation methods (the tricks themselves may vary) .

The insertion of cheats in The Sims is done through a white bar, which is called the Cheat Console . It sounds complicated, but I assure you it is not. You can easily access the Cheat Console when you are in the game (not from the main game menu), by pressing the Ctrl + Shift + C keys at the same time . You may find it more practical to hold down the Ctrl + Shift keys and then press the C key , in any case the keys must be pressed together to be able to open the white tricks bar.

The Cheat Console is positioned in the upper left corner of the screen and as you may have noticed, you can click on it and write in it. How do you say? Are you curious about the funniest tricks for The Sims 4 ? I’ll settle you immediately!

Surely, the most used trick of all is to get 1,000 Simoleons immediately , unlockable by typing rosebud in the Console and pressing the Enter key on the keyboard. The beauty, however, is that you can have a lot more money too! You ask me how? If you want to find out, you can consult my guide dedicated to how to have infinite money on The Sims .

I haven’t told you all about money in The Sims yet, because even in The Sims, money can’t buy everything. You must know that by writing in the FreeRealEstate on cheat bar , all houses and lots on the map will become free!

You should also know that there are tricks that first require manual unlocking of their use. To do this, write testingcheats true in the dedicated bar and confirm the game request with the OK button . This code should be written, for example, in the case of the trick to manipulate the needs of a Sim , which is performed by selecting a character by holding down the Shift key on the keyboard and then choosing Make Happy .

These that I have reported to you are more useful and sought after codes, but if your thirst for cheats on The Sims 4 is inexhaustible, then I suggest you write help in the console to immediately consult others and try them all. Good fun!

How to activate the cheats on The Sims for PS4

Have you decided to have fun with the most beautiful and curious tricks existing for the PS4 version of The Sims but you still don’t know how to proceed? Rest assured, you have found what you were looking for, because in this chapter of my tutorial I will tell you about the way to activate the cheats in The Sims 4 for the Sony console.

Get started right away with the preparations, starting the game and entering the game: to do so, you can load the most recent save or create a new one. Once you have entered the game, you must first activate the Cheat Console by simultaneously pressing the L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 keys, i.e. all the backbone keys of the controller. You will notice that you have done the pressure correctly because a white box will appear in the upper left part of the game screen.

Do not enter the tricks yet: there is a final preparation that is needed to avoid running into problems with the activation of a code. Then, proceed by typing the words testingcheats true in the Cheat Console and answer OK to the question that appears on the screen. Once this is done, the game is ready to incorporate the tricks!

Try one of the most requested and used tricks now, writing rosebud or motherlode to receive 1,000 or 50,000 Simoleons respectively ! Repeat as many times as you want these tricks to get more money, but if you want to know all the tricks on how to have infinite money on The Sims, refer to my specific guide .

Other tricks that I recommend you try are freerealestate on , to move to any place on the map for free, resetSim [name surname of the Sim] to return the Sim to a neutral status, or Death.toggle , to disable the death of the Sims.

How do you say? Would you like to know a way to know all the tricks? No problem: write in the bar tricks help to view them all and have fun discovering their effects!

How to activate the cheats on The Sims FreePlay

Is your favorite version of The Sims the one called FreePlay ? Perhaps because you prefer to always have your Sims close at hand and share with all friends and acquaintances what you have created and unlocked in the game. But now you would like to be able to use the cheats as you already did on The Sims 4 for PC but, you don’t know why, it’s not that easy to find and use them as usual.

Why is finding The Sims FreePlay cheats not so easy? The reason why you have this difficulty is not accidental: if you cannot find the cheats for this version of the game it is because there is no official way to use the cheats in The Sims for mobile and the developers do not allow this operation, as it does. for PC and console versions of the game.

You should know that The Sims FreePlay is offered for free on the Play Store and the App Store and the only way to progress in the game is to unlock them with your skills, or through microtransactions . For this reason, when we talk about cheats in The Sims FreePlay, we refer more properly to “hack”, or tampering with the game code in such a way as to change its behavior.

Resorting to hacks or websites that promise to unlock tricks like that of infinite money, means risking damage to your device or a theft of personal data . My suggestion, therefore, is to avoid downloading unofficial versions of the game and not try to use hacks of any kind. Be wary of sites that promise infinite money or other perks on The Sims FreePlay and you’ll have a lot more fun thinking your phone or tablet will stay safe while you play!

How to activate the cheats on The Sims Mobile

Are you looking for a way to activate the cheats on The Sims Mobile for Android or iOS but can’t find a way to do it? If you are looking for codes for this game, such as the infinite money one, you have probably already noticed the difficulty of finding one. Well, that’s because none exist!

The Sims Mobile is a free game, based on microtransactions with real money and on the game progress resulting from the skill of its players. For this feature and for the centrality of the multiplayer game, the developer has preferred not to allow the use of cheats, to keep the rules of the game more fair.

Around the web you may come across unofficial modified versions of the game, or pages that offer, in exchange for a registration, codes for unlocking cheats for The Sims Mobile: I strongly advise you not to consider these methods, because you could run into theft of personal data or damage your device.

In case of doubts or problems

Is activating the cheats in The Sims proving to be more difficult than expected? If you are having problems or doubts regarding the insertion of codes in one of the versions of The Sims that I have told you about, do not hesitate to contact the official EA Games support .

After connecting to the support site, click on the Help button with a game and search, in the list that is offered, the version of The Sims you are interested in or type, in the white search bar, the name of the game, to filter the results. You will then have access to the most frequently asked questions about the game divided by topic: then click on the box that says Filter by keyword and insert the term “tricks” in it, so as to have relevant answers.
