 Some Creative Cheats (Part 2)

The Empire Strikes Back screenshotIn January, we posted the first part of this small series; where we looked at cheats for 3 of TCFS's games. Yesterday, TCFS maestro revealed the built-in cheat on YouTube for Prince of Persia, therefore now is the perfect time to go over all his games.

Be warned, spoilers ahead!

In part 1, we covered Bruce Lee Anniversary Edition, Impossible Mission +4 and Cauldron II. That leaves 7 more games, let's get right in!

The built-in cheat for Raid Over Moscow was made public last year, but for the sake of completeness, we'll cover it here. On the title screen, type CCCP to enable cheat mode. When successful, the logo will turn red. This adds the following cheat keys to the game:

F1 - cancel momentum
F2 - skip to the next scene
F3 - skip to the last scene


Wizard Of Wor Classic is the type of game that does not need cheats. However, there is a developer mode in the game that some folks might find interesting. This can only be enabled in emulators. In the emulator monitor, type:
>1228 01
(Note that this applies to the "fixed" version. If you're using the original release, type ">122F 01" instead.)
With the developer mode enabled, you will see a number appear at the top/left. This is the game speed. The following keys are now available:

F1/F2    - control game speed
F3 - freeze enemies
HELP - make all enemies shoot
INST/DEL - kill all enemies


Next up is Lemmings... but Lemmings has no built-in cheats!

We move on to The Empire Strikes Back. The clue to this one appears in the high score list. The trick is, that (after achieving 1000 points) one must type "DARTH LOPHAS" into the high score list. (In case you're wondering why you can't find any references online to this mysterious Sith lord, the name is a silly joke - "lophas" is the phonetic spelling of "horse genitals".) When done correctly, the border will turn gray. Once cheat mode is enabled, the following keys are available:

F1   - level skip
F2 - force mode
F3 - restore energy
HELP - heavily damage all enemies


This leaves the final 3 games: Turbo Outrun, Giana Sisters, Prince of Persia. The common thing among them is that the built-in cheat is activated the same way. Want to see how? Watch TCFS's video, and be sure to like and subscribe happy

Me either! It's not like I had the idea of trying to DLOAD individual files from the disk, just to see if they are separately run-able Easter Eggs. Not smart enough to think of that, unfortunately. Oh well...
