Alone in the Dark 4: The New Nightmare Hints

Do you have any cheat codes?

  • 1 of 4: Only for the PC.  If you want to know how to cheat, read ahead, but be warned that cheating may spoil your game.
  • 2 of 4: Find the shortcut to the game and right-click on it to bring up "Properties." Change the "launch.exe" part of the target to "alone4.exe" and put "wizardmaster" after the filename.  For example: "C:\Alone in the Dark\launch.exe" cd 2 would become "C:\Alone in the Dark\alone4.exe" wizardmaster
  • 3 of 4: Now, when you double-click on the icon, the game will start up directly (instead of a menu with options like "play" or "uninstall").  You can then go into your inventory and choose "Cheat Mode".  If you want to cheat, I recommend selecting "God mode" so that there's an asterisk in front of it -- creatures will no longer harm you.  Some of the other cheats may possibly crash your game, so use them at your own risk.
  • 4 of 4: If you want that pre-game menu back, you'll have to undo your change to the shortcut properties -- change "alone4.exe" back to "launch.exe".
