"Cheat Engine will help you cheat in games"

Overview:

If you're into playing all the latest games on your PC, and even some older ones, then at some point you might have wanted to cheat. With Cheat Engine, it's easy to cheat your way to PC game stardom, and this software is able to give you unlimited ammo, unlimited lives, unlimited health, speed up the game into Turbo mode, or slow it down into Super Slowmo, etc. This program includes a runtime disassembler, a code debugger, and it even allows you to add your own add-ons into the program. Of course, you'll need to know how to code in order to use this program, and it's a little bit too advanced for just an everyday game player. 

Installation:

Installation of Cheat Engine is quick and simple, but you should be aware that the Cheat Engine software does try and install a few pieces of adware. You can disable this adware installation by unchecking a few boxes during installation. Cheat Engine is compatible with most PC games, but it isn't going to work with online games that load in the web browser. Also, you'll need to have Windows Vista, Windows XP, or Windows 7 installed to get the program to run correctly. 

Interface:

Like we said above, using the full abilities of this program will require that you know how to code. Cheat Engine doesn't use a graphical type user interface, it's more raw text, numbers, and code based. As long as you know how to code with this program, you should be fine. New users will find the included tutorial for the program very educational, and you'll be able to learn the basics of working with the program from it. Advanced users will be appreciative of all the extras they get to play with as coders, but new users and beginners may find the program somewhat limiting and hard to understand. 

Pros:

  • Allows Serious Gaming Coders To Do Their Best Work
  • You Can Change Most In-Game Settings Through Manipulation Of Code
  • Cheat Engine Is Free And Open Source Software

Cons:

  • People That Don't Know How To Code Might Be Disappointed By This Program
  • Doesn't Work With Online Browser Games

Alternatives

CheatBook-DataBase 2013 - This software database contains a collection of cheats for over 21,500 games to date. That's pretty amazing, and if you're into PC gaming, you should really download this. You'd be amazed at how much funner games are when you can have unlimited everything.

ArtMoney - Just like CheatEngine, with the ArtMoney software, you can change pretty much anything inside the  games you play. Increase your health, bullets, swords, etc. There's both a freeware and paid version you can use of this program. 

Conclusion:

Let's just put it this way. For expert programmers and coders, this is a great piece of software that allows you to totally change how the games you play functions. You can change tons of different variables like health, ammo, and game speed, and for people that know how to get the most out of the program, there isn't any program out there that can compare to it.
