Cheat codes have been a significant part ofThe Simsfranchise since the very beginning, and now you can experience their origins thanks to the newSims Legacy Collection.The Simshave a somewhat unique relationship to cheat codes, as the games have never made it difficult to use them or require an outside program like an Action Replay to enter them. In this way,The Simshas always allowed players to choose what type of experience they want from the gameand what aspects they want to cheat past.
Whilecheat codes can make anySimsgame a more customized experience,The Sims 1’s notorious difficultymade them almost a requirement back in the day. Now that you’re able to digitally downloadThe Sims Legacy Collection, you can see for yourself why cheats were such an integral part of the first game. If you’re struggling to feed your Sims or wishing for the relative ease ofThe Sims 4, these cheat codes can make aSims 1playthrough a bit easier.

If you’re anewSims 1player, The cheats you’ll likely use the mostare cheats for more money. The original game made it difficult for your Sims to earn a living. I distinctly remember having to delete interior walls in my house just so my Sim could eat a bag of chips for dinner. Before I knew money cheats, my Sims exclusively lived in extremely open-concept houses with no windows and only a single door. Other cheats can be convenient or let you control things in a way you normally can’t, but likely not as necessary as money cheats.
