Mhairie Sioux Escrivain and the Dracula of Hogwarts is an Interactive Fiction game where you play as a Mhairie Sioux in the Harry Potter world who's half-unicorn, has a faerie dragon as a pet, is so speshul that she becomes a member of all four Hogwarts houses at once, gets Harry and Draco to moon over her, and saves the entire school from Dracula by being so pure that drinking her blood causes the vampire to reform on the spot. In case you haven't figured out by now, this game is not meant to be taken seriously in the slightest.
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......ourOneNineScam
The character is contacted by someone who claims (in suspiciously shaky English) to have a large sum of money which is rightfully his but which he cannot access for various reasons (sealed account, locked trust fund, etc.), and he needs the mark's help to be able to access it. If he helps out, he'll get a substantial share of the money, which could be millions of dollars. To do this, the scammer typically needs the mark's own bank account to help him transfer the money, and he needs some of the mark's own money in advance to help authorize the transfer, bribe officials, or do anything else the scammer can think of. But the money doesn't exist; once the scammer gets the mark's money or access to his bank account, he cuts off all contact. It's basically the Spanish Prisoner scam for the Internet age.
As a trope, though, it's not usually used as a way to drive the overall plot like the Spanish Prisoner scam is; instead, it usually goes to show how stupid or gullible a character is for falling for it. The subversion would thus take the form of the money being real and the other characters being the fools for being too cynical to help out a poor Nigerian prince. A particularly clever character might become a "scambaiter", who pretends to fall for the scam and strings the scammer along until he gets him into a humiliating or compromising situation.
A variant frequently encountered on the Internet these days is the "419 Scam" (named after the relevant section of the Nigerian banking code, where some of these scams originate), in which the "prisoner" is replaced by a relative of some recently deceased developing countries dictator, who asks the potential mark to help him smuggle and/or launder stolen UN aid money. Or get bank boxes out of a third country. Or steal the ill-gotten windfall profit of an over-invoiced oil contract. If you're reading this, you've probably received spam about it yourself. The total amount of over-invoiced oil on all of these supposed "lucrative" contracts probably exceeds the output of Saudi Arabia for ten years. While the two tropes are similar, in works the Spanish Prisoner scam is much more likely to drive the whole plot, while 419 scams are often used as a bit of characterization or as a joke.
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......panishPrisoner
A Con Man identifies a potential mark—someone with wealth and naivete. The con man convinces the mark that he serves a dethroned princess who is being held prisoner in, say, Spain. If the mark can come up with just a few hundred dollars, then a guard can be bribed and the princess can flee to the US (where the mark lives) in eternal gratitude.
The mark can easily part with a few hundred, and so, though he is wary, he falls far enough for the con man's smooth line. A week goes by. Two. The mark has come to understand that he's been tricked, but before that last spark of hope can die, the con man reappears with a letter from Her Highness. She is free and in France. Now she needs a few thousand dollars for her final passage by sea, and the mark gladly shells it out.
Next, the princess might need money to bail out her mother and father, the ex-monarchs; then, she'll need to buy off a Spanish spy who has discovered her escape. The mark keeps paying for as long as the con artists can keep him fooled. The con man shows the mark photographs of the beautiful princess (who is really Dotty from the Nighthawk Diner in a ten-cent tiara). More players are brought in to act out additional roles, each earning part of the take.
Finally, the mark can be brushed off. One way to do this is for the princess to arrive, at last, on the mark's doorstep. The con man is there, too, but then the Spanish spy shows up and murders the con man. (It's an act, of course; the con man usually has a "cackle bladder" full of fake blood in his mouth, and he usually makes sure to get some of it on the mark's clothes as he falls.) The mark is terrified, and the princess runs to his side, kisses him tenderly, and tells him that she must go into exile or she will endanger his life as well as her own. And so, the mark never sees the princess again, and the con man, princess, and Spanish spy agent all split the take. In this way the Mark never realizes he was conned and doesn't go to the police. There are real-life examples of marks who discovered the con only when they were approached by the police and asked to testify.
That's the classic Spanish Prisoner. Today's updates are called Russian Bride and Save This Hooker.
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......n/ClickbaitGag
Clickbait is a term used to describe attention-grabbing, over-the-top, misleading headlines, thumbnails, and content intended to induce clicks from internet users. For the purposes of this page, however, we'll only be listing and discussing parodies and In-Universe gags about clickbait.
Why? Well, clickbait's definition is a source of complaining on par with any Flame Bait. Read literally, "clickbait" is something of a non-sensical term. Every title is, by definition, clickbait. Every writer wants you to read their work, and titles are designed to grab the reader's attention and entice them to read the story. Even the most hard-boiled reporter writing on the driest subject matters wants readers—financial journalists aren't reporting on international monetary policy for their health.
As such, the question of whether a work qualifies as clickbait is often the subject of intense debate, and we don't want anything to do with that argument. For example, even Buzzfeed, a website often considered synonymous with clickbait, has published an article arguing that they don't use it at all.
Even if defining and listing actual clickbait can largely depend on subjective Audience Reactions, finding an attempt to play with the trend intentionally is feasible. And any Shallow News Site Satire worth its salt will have clickbait parodies by the bucketloads. If someone gives an example of clickbait, it will often fall into one of these types:
Obnoxiously contrarian "takes."
Hysterical Listicles — for example, "The Five Most Crazily Overrated Movies YOU Love!"
Over-the-top teases that promise life-changing information at the end of a story — for example, "What This Mother Did for Her Child Will Restore Your Faith in Humanity" or "Doctors Hate This Man Who Cured X With One Weird Trick!" May invoke Could This Happen to You? or peddle some kind of snake oil.
Blatantly inaccurate headlines, especially those that promise sexual or scandalous content.
A headline missing a key fact, thereby giving a misleading impression or setting up a mystery — for example "A mother went to pick her child up from daycare. Then she was arrested."
Truncated long titles with no tooltip, so even the ability to read the entire title requires clicking the link.
The thumbnail of the article or video having either some innocuous area of an image circled, having an arrow pointing to said area, or both.
Why did these cheap templates become popular in real life? Well, many online creators make their money by selling space on their web site to advertisers. The more visitors a site gets (the more people who click on their content), the more advertisers are willing to pay to place their ads on the site. This means that finding ways to bait people into clicking becomes the crucial business consideration for a content provider.
Since making exceptional content is hard and expensive, creators look for shortcuts. They use sensationalistic, attention-grabbing titles and opinions to grab clicks, often from readers who are intrigued or outright appalled by the title or whatever visual they have to click on.
With time, the public has become aware of these tactics and they've been labelled "clickbait" since at least 2006. This ubiquity has led many creators to discuss clickbait more openly and use the obnoxiousness of clickbait as a source of humor. Since clickbait thrives in Web Original content, those creators tend to discuss these tactics the most.
This is related to other tropes dealing with advertising and attracting viewers: Never Trust a Trailer (which is about misleading marketing in general), Superdickery (a misleading marketing tactic where heroes look like villains), Lady Not-Appearing-in-This-Game (where a sexualized woman is used to advertise a game she isn't in), Wolverine Publicity (where a popular character is used to market a product they aren't central to), and Advertising Disguised as News. In an offline context, similarly sensationalistic announcements often come from The Barnum ("this next great wonder of the world will astound and amaze you!") or from Lurid Tales of Doom.
Because of the controversy involved in serious examples of clickbait, list In-Universe Examples Only.

Flame bait is a post that is intended to start people bickering. Okay, maybe it doesn't have to be the intention, but it is certainly the result. Bickering begins.

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......Main/CheatCode
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......in/BigHeadMode
Banjo-Kazooie has several unlockable cheats to enlarge the characters' head, arms, legs or all at once.
Jak and Daxter games have unlockable (cheap) Big Head toggle. Some also have Tiny Head toggle.
In Ratchet & Clank games there are often cheats that will give big heads to the Player Character(s), NPCs, or enemies.
The original Spyro the Dragon trilogy has a code for this.
GoldenEye (1997) has DK Mode, which also includes longer arms.
The TimeSplitters series had a big head mode cheat that could be unlocked (as well as a No head, tiny head and spinning head mode amongst others).
In Armor Games' Indestruc2Tank, one of the unlockable secrets is making the heads of people in comm units bigger.
Unreal Tournament 2003 had this as a mod.
BIONICLE Heroes for the DS has this, making enemies easier targets.
As an unlockable Mutator in Gears of War 3, Big Head mode also pitches up everyone's chatter to match their silly proportions. Sadly, it does not apply in cutscenes.
Team Fortress 2: In the Ghost Fort map, one of the Wheel of Fate effects is this for everyone. Another is the inverse, tiny heads for everyone.
In Borderlands 3, Big Head Mode is one of the potential modifiers for Mayhem Mode that also has the added bonus of increasing headshot damage.
NBA Jam is the likely Trope Codifier, appearing as a Classic Cheat Code in most of Midway's arcade versions, and also in the EA Sports revival.
NFL Blitz has a big heads code in almost every game in the series.
A cheat in some Tony Hawk's Pro Skater games.
Coolboarders 3 does this.
Tekken 2 has this, being released in 1996 when Big Head Mode was popular. It hasn't returned in any sequels.
In Mortal Kombat 4, this is one of the Kombat Kodes. For some reason, it also affects the skeleton hands that Shinnok summons in his fatalities. In one of them, they get too big to fit through the portal.
Jefailey of Divekick (pictured above) has this as his character gimmick: Due to his ego, his head inflates every time he wins a round. This makes it easier for opponents to score headshots on him during later rounds. However, the larger his head gets, the higher he jumps (since it's full of hot air), changing his kick angle.
The forgettable Star Wars: Masters of Teräs Käsi made a mockery of Star Wars characters nearly two years before Episode I hit the big screen. A Cheat Code will make everyone Super-Deformed.
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......Game/GameGenie
The Game Genie spawned one competitor, the Pro Action Replay, which worked in a similar fashion. Both peripherals were retired at the end of the 16-Bit generation. The equivalent for the 32/64-bit era was the Interact GameShark. The next generation of Console Wars, dominated by the PlayStation 2 and Xbox, benefited from a new generation of the Action Replay, as well as the Pelican Accessories Code Breaker. No off-the-shelf tool permits similar enhancement to the Wii, PS3, or Xbox 360 at this time, and with the upswing in online console gaming and remote hardware verification, they may not ever be back. Much of this has to do with newer consoles using modern hardware which can restrict programs from accessing one another's memory, a capability which if misused could result in all manner of cheating tools for online multiplayer games. However, someone did buy the Game Genie name, to use for a save game editor program, and of course this is still very possible in PC games, through software like Cheat Engine.
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......Game/GameShark
Third, it could be harmful to your save file. Some games interact with the console in interesting ways and can be made to behave unpredictably with a GameShark, and if the save file is corrupted, bad things can happen — for instance, Animal Crossing on the Nintendo DS will not load at all, because it calls your town at startup for the intro. This is why GameShark users prefer to make backup saves, in case they inadvertently make the game Unwinnable. Later generation devices, like the GameShark proper, Action Replay MAX, and Code Breaker, advertised themselves as not messing directly with your save file and thus safer.
In Toon Town Online, one of the rewards for completing a "Just for Fun" Task is your Toon to receive a giant head for a varying period of time, depending on which Playground tasks you're working on.
One of the game mods of Wasted Youth.
Batman: Arkham City and Batman: Arkham Knight have this.
In LEGO The Lord of the Rings, hitting someone with the Ent-Draught makes their head swell up.
Scribblenauts has the Lolwut.
Heroes of the Storm did this for the 2015 April Fools prank.
Elsword uses it as a negative status effect. When your head is enlarged, your jumping height is cut in half until the effect subsides.
When certain characters in Disney Infinity get hit by the "Glow Urchin" item, their heads will swell up for a time.
One of the possible cheats for MediEvil. Players can actually adjust the size of Dan's head from slightly swollen to larger than his body.
Ninja: Shadow of Darkness: You can unlock this by inserting a cheat code, which will make your hero's head enlarge at least ten times.
Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time has the Pinata Party event appropriately titled "Big Brainz". During this event, all zombies from Player's House/Modern Day have comically oversized heads. Otherwise, it's just a cosmetic difference.
Roblox has its own popular Bighead accessory, as well as a Biggerhead and a Biggesthead. There are several games on Roblox which will scale up your head, such as this.
Tyranny features it as a basic setting option.
Just Cause 3 has a hidden Easter Egg weapon, the DK Pistol,note which does no damage, has unlimited ammo, and causes the heads of anyone shot with it to inflate to comical proportions. Causing someone in this state to ragdoll will result in them floating off into the sky like a helium balloon. It also inflates Rico's head to similar proportions just by picking it up.
Yandere Simulator has a DK Mode, also a reference to GoldenEye.
LEGO Dimensions added this as an unlockable modifier, along with an inversion in the form of Tiny Head Mode.
All characters in Thimbleweed Park have big heads.
Ed, Edd n Eddy: The Mis-Edventures has unlockable Big Head Mode (and a Small Head Mode).
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......assicCheatCode
The Legend of Zelda:
In every game, the player can choose a name for the main character.
In the original The Legend Of Zelda I:
Naming your saved game ZELDA (or at least starting the name with ZELDA, so ZELDARA would trigger this too) starts you off on the second quest. It is often joked by fans as being a Take That! to fans who think Link's name is Zelda.
Pressing Up+ A on the player 2 controller takes you to the Continue/Save/Retry screen immediately, so you can save without having to die. In rereleases on platforms where you can't plug in a second controller, substitute commands are used, such as Up+Select on the GBA version.
In The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, entering ZELDA treats you to a catchy remix of the series theme song.
Metroid:
JUSTIN BAILEY
- A password beginning with this sequence lets a player start Metroid 1 with an unarmored Samus and much of the game completed. Various hypotheses arose as to who or what "Justin Bailey" was, note but it was later proven to be a coincidence — the password system is coded so that many English word combinations produce valid results.
A Metroid cheat code that is not a coincidence but which remained undetected for years is
NARPASSWORD
. It's hardcoded to bypass the usual password logic and checksums, and grants Samus infinite health and missiles, the Ice Beam, and every power-up in the game with the exception of Energy Tanks and missile expansions. There are several hypotheses regarding the code's name. Some say the first three letters stand for Tohru Narihito, who converted the game to cartridge format from the original Famicom Disk System version (which used battery backup instead of passwords). Others say the code is short for North American Release Password, inserted into the American version for debug purposes. Nintendo themselves claim it stands for Not A Real Password (the joke being it is a real password). Still others have searched the game far and wide for the elusive Narpas Sword...
ENGAGE RIDLEY
. Sadly, that code has now become a system-killer in the 3DS port. Using it on a NES emulator will also crash the game on the spot.
Catherine features a Shout-Out to the "Justin Bailey" code, with a character whose full name is Justin Bailey.
Shadow Complex, another Metroidvania, also includes a reference: completing the Master Level Challenge of collecting 100% of its items in under 2 hours gives you the title "Jason Bailey".
In Axiom Verge, you can enter "JUSTIN-BAILEY" on the password screen and activate it for an Easter Egg.
Tomb Raider:
In the PC version of Tomb Raider II, attempting to use the "All Weapons" cheat note from the original Tomb Raider causes Lara to explode. The sequence does work as expected if Lara is holding a flare at the time.
Tomb Raider III had even more fun with that: you have to do everything like in the second game, but with your pistols unholstered and adding a crouch before turning around. Wielding any other item or omitting the crouch once again causes Lara to explode.
The Konami Code (up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Start) was and still is used in several games made by Konami. The first time was in the NES game Gradius, where it gave your ship every powerup available. Another was Contra, where it gave you 30 lives.
In the PC Engine version of the Irem game Mr. Heli no Daibouken, the code for up to 99 continues was I, II, II, I, Select. Entering the same code in Ninja Spirit would just display the message "Do you play Mr. Heli?" (This confused some American players, since Mr. Heli was released in the U.S. only as an Arcade Game under the Market-Based Title Battle Chopper.)
Castlevania: Rondo of Blood had X-X!V''Q as the level select code. In Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, entering the same name allowed beginning with Alucard in Luck Mode, with 99 Luck and a Lapis Lazuli which further increases his Luck.
XYZZY" is a magic word in Colossal Cave Adventure. While not originally a cheat code, homages to Colossal Cave use it as such, and the hobbyist text-adventure development community traditionally includes a hidden "xyzzy" command as a tribute. Slightly less commonly used is "PLUGH" which functions the same as "XYZZY" in Colossal Cave. (Depending on what version of the game you play, other words such as "PLOVER" and "LWPI" also appear.)
In Deus Ex, this is one of the passwords JC Denton uses to attempt to get into Smuggler's place when he doesn't know the real one.
In the online text adventure game Grueslayer on Uncyclopedia, there will usually be an option to either pronounce or say "xyzzy" or a variant with a different number of X's and Z's. Doing this at any time will kill you horribly.
Kingdom of Loathing, a text-adventure parody in itself, references this in the Leaflet Quest.
Some versions of Windows Minesweeper have a cheat where typing "xyzzy" and then pressing the Shift and Enter keys enables the player to identify whether or not a given square contained a mine by looking at the upper-left-most pixel of the screen.
The adult text adventure game Moist has "xyzzy" teleport you to the ballroom in the middle of the map (and lampshades it with the comment "Good to see the old magic still works").
Use of this word in Level 9's Snowball (or indeed, any magic word from any of their previous games) would cause a psychiatric droid to tap you on the shoulder, then tranquillize you, and you would wake up in a padded cell. Fortunately, there was a way out. It can be used to teleport away from death, and lets you into an area that you might not have unlocked yet, but this can lead to Script Breaking and even make the game Unwinnable.
Trying either "plugh" or "xyzzy" in Zork causes the game to tell you "A hollow voice says 'Fool'." This in itself is commonly referenced.
The first Zork game has the instructions on how to use the boat start with the phrase "Hello, Sailor!" (The game gives the same response to "Hello, Sailor!" as it does to "xyzzy" and "plugh".) The second game has the same things built in and also introduces "Hello, Aviator!" on the instructions for how to use the hot air balloon. These become a Brick Joke in the third game, in which saying "Hello, Sailor!" at the right time and place nets you an invisibility potion. Alternately, in the original, Mainframe Zork that was cut up into three pieces to make the commercial Zork series, knowing that "Hello, Sailor" was utterly useless was important.
In the SNES port of Street Fighter II, you could punch in Down, R, Up, L, Y, B, on the Capcom logo to unlock mirror matches. The "sequel" Street Fighter II Turbo used it on controller 2 to enable mega turbo mode or disable specials if done on the "Licensed by Nintendo" screen. King of Dragons appended X and A to the code to unlock same-character select.
The Dark Forces Saga is consistent across the years with cheats unlocked by entering either "devmapall" or "helpusobi 1" and featuring a godmode (god) all weapons, ammo and full health/shields (give [blank] or give all) level jumps, noclip mode and the latter two games letting you set Force powers as high as you like and spawn both friendly and hostile Non Player Characters. Also present in the last game is a punching mechanic, unlocked with the code "iknowkungfu." The PS4 port of Jedi Outcast allows for cheats by pausing the game and inputting up, down, up, down L3, R3, L3. Each of the cheats is accompanied by a Mythology Gag and, while most achievements are disabled, there is an achievement for completing a level with a cheat code active.
Doom has a number of cheat codes prefixed by the character sequence "ID" — the most popular being "IDDQD" (God Mode) and "IDKFA" (full armor and ammo plus all weapons and keys). The "ID" prefix obviously stands for developer id Software, but not many fans know that "DQD" stands for Delta-Q-Delta, the name of a three-person informal fraternity organized by Doom programmer Dave Tailor during his college days. "KFA" simply stands for Keys, Full Ammo.note Several later games, particularly in the same genre, have carried on the tradition.
If you type any code from the original Doom into the developer console in Doom 3, you get the message "Your memory serves you well!" and nothing more.
In Activision's Windows release of Earthworm Jim, entering "IDDQD" and "IDKFA" would display two different credits screens.
The same thing happens with the PC version of Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure, displaying a screen of the team saying 'This Ain't Doom!'
If you have one of the older versions of Microsoft Excel that has the mini-FPS hidden inside it, try the code "EXCELKFA".
Heretic includes "IDDQD"... but, in a case of Jackass Genie, doing so instantly kills you with the message "Trying to cheat, eh? Now you die!" Likewise, "IDKFA" deprives you of everything except a staff ("Cheater - you don't deserve weapons!"). Players were likely to try these codes at least once, considering that the game used the Doom engine.
Using "IDDQD" in MechWarrior 2 detonates your BattleMech with the message "This ain't Doom, bub".
Typing "IDKFA" into Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3's password entry screen allows you to skate as the Doom Guy, complete with his own set of Doom-themed skateboards.
The no-clip code for Doom is "IDSPISPOPD". It's both a code and an in-joke: an acronym for "smashing pumpkins into small piles of putrid debris." note Lampshaded in the novel for Doom, where the Cacodemons are called Pumpkins by the hero(es) and, after a particularly gruesome encounter, the Action Girl shouts, "OOH-RAH! Smashing pumpkins into small piles of putrid debris!"
"IDSPISPOPD" is referenced in a Cracked Photoplasty: Ads for Products That Must Exist in Video Games.
By the way, none of "IDKFA", "IDDQD", "IDSPISPOPD", "IDBEHOLD" or their ilk work on the version of Doom that comes with the Doom 3 BFG Edition.
They actually do, as long as you type them in the console, rather than just during gameplay. Except "IDDQD" becomes "IDQD" for reasons unknown.
In Heretic, god mode is "QUICKEN" and all weapons is "RAMBO". If you try "QUICKEN" three times in the sequel Hexen, your character instantly dies. However, in an unintended and unforeseen portability between the two games, typing "QUICKEN" and then "RAMBO" just so happens to include the sequence for Hexen's own all weapons code: "NRA".
Most first-person shooter games whose game engines can have their origins traced all the way back to Quake I (such as games developed by Valve Software) tend to share a lot of cheat codes for their developer consoles. Some shared cheat codes are:
"god", which gives the player invulnerability.
"noclip", which lets the player move through walls and enemies, and lets them ignore water.
"notarget", which prevents enemies from noticing the player. Interestingly, in Quake itself, it only worked as long as the player didn't attack them, similarly to the Ring of Shadows powerup.
"impulse <number>", a debug command that triggers the action that is identified by the chosen number - for example, "impulse 2" in Quake makes the Shotgun the active weapon while "impulse 255" activates a Quad Damage. However, all Quake-derived games have an "impulse" that gives the player all weapons and maximum ammo. In Quake, it's "impulse 9" (which also gives the player both the Silver and Gold Key, but they are lost upon changing levels. It's also the only way to use the Thunderbolt in the demo), while in Half-Life-derived games it's "impulse 101".
In Sonic the Hedgehog, the level select code is "up, down, left, right, then hold A and press Start". Pressing C after each direction activates debug mode. The first version of the code is used in a number of other Mega Drive games.
In Sonic the Hedgehog 2, the level select code is "19, 65, 09, 17" on the Sound Test. It's the birthday of Yuji Naka!
In Sonic 3D: Flickies' Island, press B, A, right, A, C, up, down, A ("BARACUDA") to unlock level select. This is also a common sequence in Mega Drive games. Alternatively...you can just slap your cartridge while it’s in the slot since the level select also acts as a failsafe when the game has an untrappable error.note
One of the oldest cheat codes, and possibly one of the best-known, is "6031769" from the 1983 Sinclair ZX Spectrum game Manic Miner (it unlocked a teleport system). This was later homaged in Grand Theft Auto (by British developers Rockstar North), which uses this as one of its cheat codes.
Jet Set Willy, in its original release had a teleport system if you typed in the word "typewriter". A later re-release when the author moved from Bug Byte to Software Projects changed it to "writetyper".
Some Hudson Soft games allow to continue from the last stage you got Game Over (instead of going back to 1-1) by using hold LEFT and press START cheat code. Works in Adventure Island and Milon's Secret Castle.
In Bubble Bobble (the arcade version), entering certain controller codes on the title screen that would make powerups permanent, reveal all secret doors, and unlock the "Super Game." In Rainbow Islands, the same three codes produced hint messages instead.
The original Spyro games on PS1 featured cheat codes for 99 lives, Big Head Mode, Flat Spyro, colour changing and level warps (although not all at once in the same game).
For Spyro Reignited Trilogy, only the 99 Lives code from 1, the colour-changing codes and the Big Head/Flat Spyro codes from 3 were used. This is because they're the only ones that don't use the Circle button (unless it's the last input), as that cancels out of the remake's pause menu.
Donkey Kong Country: At the save file menu:
B, A, R, R, A, L (Barrel) — Grants 50 lives upon starting or loading a file.
Down, Y, Down, Down, Y (DYDDY -> Diddy) — Instant access to the animal bonus stages.
Down, A, R, B, Y, Down, A, Y (Darby Day) — Sound Test.
B, A, Down, B, A, Down, Down, Y (Bad Buddy) — Allows either player to switch in two-player co-op, not just the active player.
All of the Age Of games have stock cheats that devious players (or campaign schemers) will know off by heart, ready to Ctrl+V and double-Enter into oblivion. The resource ones are arguably the most well-known, for Foodnote , Woodnote , Stonenote and Goldnote , as well as instant units and research.note
In Planet Blupi, by typing a certain word in-game, you can either refill all Blupis' energy and cure the sick ones ("POWER"), make all Blupis' Life Meter stay full regardless of task ("SUPERBLUPI"), make the Blupis outright invincible ("INVINCIBLE"), clear out all the black fog that limits your vision ("VISION"), among others.
The password for an instant win in Starcraft is "there is no cow level", referencing a rumor in Blizzard's Diablo (which became an actual level in Diablo II). There was also a user group known as "Operation: CWAL (Can't Wait Any Longer)" on the Blizzard forums before the official release of Starcraft; as a Shout-Out, the cheat code for super fast construction is "operation cwal". The cheat for infinite energy is "the gathering", a reference to Magic: The Gathering. Other cheats include "black sheep wall", "food for thought", and "power overwhelming". Starcraft II has terribleterribledamage and moredotsmoredots.
In the first Warcraft, the code to enable cheat codes is "corwin of amber". To make your units invincible and able to kill enemies in one hit, type "it is a good day to die". "ides of march" takes you to the last mission for the campaign, while "eye of newt" gives all casters all spell upgrades.
Warcraft II once again has "it is a good day to die", and adds "on screen" to remove the Fog of War and "make it so" for fast building/training/researching. Meanwhile, "there can be only one" results in instant victory, and "every little thing she does" upgrades your units' magic.
The instant win password in Warcraft III is "allyourbasearebelongtous", while the instant defeat password is "somebodysetupusthebomb". The code to give yourself gold is "keysersoze n", where n is the amount you want. "greedisgood n" gets you n of both gold and lumber. "thereisnospoon" gives all units infinite mana. "strength and honor" prevents the computer from declaring your loss. "whoisjohngalt" allows research upgrades even if you haven't met the requirements (such as having a Workshop in order to research Long Rifles). warpten gives instant builds. iocainepowder grants instant death attacks to all your units. "iseedeadpeople" removes the Fog of War. The Attack*100-plus-invincibility cheat is "whosyourdaddy".
Burai Fighter has two special cheat passwords: LOBB (after Ken Lobb) for all weapons, and KAGA (after Taxan's parent company, Kaga Electronics) for 99 lives.
In the original SimCity, hold Shift and type "fund" to get $10,000 (each time). If you use it eight times, though, you trigger an earthquake. You can avoid the downside by saving and reloading before you reach the trigger, or by using the code prior to building anything.note
In SimCity 2000, this code offers to loan you $10,000 at 25 percent interest a week. You can exploit this by using the code repeatedly until the ridiculous interest rate wraps around and turns hugely negative.
Entering "fund" in the cheat console of SimCity 3000 makes your news ticker scroll a message about "an ancient, arcane code".
In SimCity 2000, "iamacheat" gives you $500,000 and unlocks all buildings and rewards. Typing "priscilla" gives access to a lovely debug console.
In SimAnt, SimEarth, and Sim Life, using "iamacheat", "fund", or any other money-related cheat from prior games results in a message saying "Congratulations, you are now $10,000 richer. Unfortunately, money is useless in this game." Using them in SimFarm donates the money to the nearby city, rather than to your own bank account. Rather than actually doing something useful with the money, the mayor squanders it all on a new car.
In SimCity 3000, "Call cousin Vinnie" causes a shady-looking character to offer a large sum of money, though this works only once per game. If you reject it, a cop congratulates you for passing a Secret Test of Character and gives you another code to build a castle.
klapacius (later rosebud) from The Sims. Of course, finding how to get the cheat window to pop up is the fun part. (Ctrl-Shift-C, in case you were wondering.)
In every main Sims game since the The Sims 2, it's been "kaching" to get 1000 simoleons and "motherlode" to get 50000 simoleons.
Heroes of Might and Magic III. Tab-nwc[culturalreference]. In all three versions of it. One referenced Monty Python and the Holy Grail: nwcalreadygotone gives you the holy grail and nwcigotbetter to gain a level. The expansions used Matrix and Star Wars Episode 1 references. Popular fanmade expansion Wake of the Gods replaces cheatcodes as well - this time with Lord Of The Rings references.
Invoked by Jan Valentine of Hellsing who screams the Konami Code as he and his ghouls slaughter the anti-vampire defensive forces.
Perplex City has a card whose objective is to name the games that originated many of these popular codes.
The Big Bad of Wreck-It Ralph uses the Konami Code to unlock the source code to Sugar Rush.
Holding down shift and pressing 838 while on the title screen opened up a developer's screen on many TI-99/4A games, typically allowing you to choose what level to start on, how many lives you had, etc.
Many Game Boy games used Up, A, Start. When used any time, it would cause an in-game reset.
This is referenced in the Strong Bad Email "keep cool" as the last thing lifeguard Strong Bad recommends doing before getting in the pool after eating.
Try the Konami code (Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, left, Right, B, A) on this website: http://www.vogue.co.uk/
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki......ain/KonamiCode
The NES version of Gradius is the first game to use the code.note Entering the code while the game is paused gives you all power-ups except Speed Up, Double and Laser. In later Gradius games, this code instantly destroys your ship, but variant versions of it will provide the original benefits.
In the SNES version of Gradius III, replacing Left and Right with L and R (the shoulder buttons) will grant the ship four options and the selected powerup. You could try it with Left and Right, and it would give you the powerups, but as soon as you un-paused the game your ship would explode. The original version, with thirty lives, is also in the game - it's activated by pausing, then pressing B, B, X, X, A, Y, A, Y, Up, Left, and Start. The observant will note that this is the button sequence you'd hit on the SNES controller if you held it upside down while entering the original code.
Gradius V accepts both the left-right-left-right and shoulder trigger versions (in the case of the latter, L1, R1, L1, R1). One version gives you full power plus Laser, the other is full power plus Double. The amount of times it's used is recorded in the high score table under "Konami Command".
Gradius Galaxies / Generation / Advance gives you about three seconds after inputting the classic version of the code and unpausing before your ship explodes. The shoulder button version carries no such penalty.
Gradius ReBirth uses the traditional version of the code (with 2 and 1 in place of B and A, respectively) to give the player four Options but no extra lives or other powerups. It's especially helpful toward the end of the game since Continuing is Painful.
The NES version of Life Force, a spinoff of Gradius, uses the Konami Code as a 30-live cheat similar to Contra.
Contra
In the NES version, the code increases the starting number of lives from 3 to 30.
Oddly enough, none of the Contra sequels featured the code until Contra Shattered Soldier for the PlayStation 2 (they used different cheat codes). For the code to work in Shattered Soldier, the player must input the code using the second controller and substitute the left and the right on the d-pad with each successive L and R button (L1, R1, L2, R2, L3, and R3). Of course, all this did was make it really easy to get the worst ending.
It's used again in the Cosmetically Advanced Prequel Hard Corps: Uprising. Inputting the code during the loading screen of the first stage replaces the music of that stage with a metal remix of the first stage music from the original Contra. Inputting a different version of it with LS and RS replacing B and A in the title screen unlocks the ability to buy an upgrade that gives you 30 lives without beating the game with that character first.
Yu-Gi-Oh! The Falsebound Kingdom as a code for getting bonus money.
Using it in either Yu-Gi-Oh Tag Force games would unlock a Konami themed booster pack, featuring Gradius cards, which was carried over in the second and third games. A nice nod, but fairly impractical, as the cards themselves aren't that great, and the cost for just one pack is several times that of the others.
It got a revival and then some in Tag Force 5. To unlock the Konami pack, input Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, L, R, L, R, Square, Triangle, Square, Triangle.
Anime got in on this too. Episode 129. Kaiba's code to control one of Yugi's monsters went as follows: Left right A B. It has been said to be an homage, but it's possible the connection was unintentional. Word of God hasn't confirmed whether it was a coincidence or if Kaiba's input was designed as a Shout-Out to Konami.
Later, in Kaiba's duel with Jonouchi, Jonouchi uses his Graverobber Trap Card to take the the card from Kaiba's Graveyard, and then inputs a different code to use its other effect: "Up, Left, Down, Right, A." (Note that the effect was not consistent with the second effect of the OCG/TCG version of the card.)
Using this code in a certain room in a certain bonus dungeon was the only way to get 100% Completion in the first Boktai game.
Silent Hill:
In Silent Hill: 0rigins, where one of the bonus costumes has to be unlocked in this way. The game itself refers to the cheat as "an ancient and powerful spell".
A few years earlier in Silent Hill 3, you could enter the Konami Code... to remove Douglas' pants and shirt. Why couldn't they have done that for Henry in Silent Hill 4?
On Normal or less difficulty mode, the notoriously tricky boss The End in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater could be seen on the Map screen with the help of the code (with Square and Triangle substituing for B and A). When your rank is displayed in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty after you beat the game, enter the code and Solid Snake will make fun of you for trying to cheat so late. Entering UUDDLRLRAB as your name on the Dog Tag has an interesting effect, too.
Enter it as your name before starting a VR Missions save on Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance, and it will unlock all the characters and their missions for you, so that you can skip tricky levels and come back to them later.
Snake and Otacon designed a secret handshake friendship hug sometime before Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty that's a physical representation of the Konami Code. Otacon's a huge dork, and Snake's a Pop-Cultured Badass, so it fits.
Enter it on the title screen in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (with Circle and X substituing for B and A; Circle and X are the Western PlayStation game menu equivalents of B and A) to unlock Very Hard and Revengeance difficulty levels without beating the game on lower difficulty levels first. In the PC version, entering the code also immediately unlocks Jetstream, Bladewolf, the VR missions, and all codecs and cutscenes.
In the NES and FDS versions of Gyruss, you have to enter the Konami code backward (A, B, A, B, right, left, right, left, down, down, up, up) in order for it to work properly.
Dance Dance Revolution has featured the directional portions of the code as part of the steps on several songs, such as "30 Lives" (a pop song making references to the Contra example), "Twinbee ~Generation X~" and "Make A Jam!" (which is in fact, a remix of the classic 90's Konami jingle too)
The first two games in the Xbox-exclusive Ultramix subseries were the only games in the series that featured the code as a cheat: inputting it in during the credits with a controller inserted on the fourth controller port would unlock all songs (in Ultramix 2 it had to be inputted twice). Coincidentally, one of the songs present on Ultramix 2 was the aforementioned "Make A Jam!".
The original versions of DDR (not including the American PS1 version, which was based on 3rdMIX) require directional codes to turn on other difficulty levels and options. Sure enough, the eight directions of the Konami Code make up one of them (Double Basic).
In the PS1 version of Dance Dance Revolution 5thMIX, highlighting the correct picture in the gallery and entering the code, replacing B and A with X and O (which are in the same respective positions on the PS1 controller as the B and A buttons on the SNES controller), unlocks the last four pictures in the gallery.
beatmania IIDX 22 PENDUAL invokes the Code as part of the requirements to unlock the Final Boss of the CHRONO SEEKER event. Among other things, once you've earned the right to unlock the final Crystal, you must input the following on the song select screen: Effect, Effect, VEFX, VEFX, 1P Start, 2P Start, 1P Start, 2P Start, any black key, any white key.note
In Zone of the Enders the Second Runner, it was possible to get Zoradius mode by entering a shortened version of the cheat code: Up Down Left Right Start at the pause menu during the boss battle with Vic Viper. Entering the code again in the minigame itself gave you full powerups just like a real Gradius game.
In the first game, entering the full code in reverse at the title screen would unlock Versus mode without needing to complete the game.
In Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance, the code unlocks 8-bit Simon Belmont (complete with the NES Castlevania's unfair Jump Physics) for use in boss rush mode.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
The second Game Boy Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game has one of the code's least useful appearances: it refills your health meter, essentially giving you an extra life on command, but can only be used once per playthrough.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Manhattan Project for the NES uses a variant of the code with the A and B button presses reversed to unlock a stage select / options mode.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time for the SNES: Entering the code on Controller 2 awards ten lives.
The International Superstar Soccer series uses this code in several of its games, although some require the second controller while others switch the up/down and left/right commands (in the case of the N64 version, C-triggers). The original gives you "happy players," Deluxe gives you a dog referee, and the 3d games give the players big heads.
In The Legend of the Mystical Ninja, a villager helpfully informs you: "Just between you and me... if you use the command 'Up Up Down Down L R L R B A', nothing will happen."
In Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, you find a scroll on a dead soldier who went mad from reading a Tome of Eldritch Lore in the castle library, said scroll details the soldier's attempts to gain power that could bring God low, when he gets to "jump", he apparently crashes into a railing and falls to his death.
Inputting the Code on the title screen of Castlevania: Bloodlines unlocks Expert difficulty without the need to complete the game once on Normal.
In International Track & Field 2000, inputting the code on the event selection screen (with Circle and X in place of B and A) and selecting an event would replace your athlete with Konami Man, and for the events with female athletes it would give them a different outfit.
On Castlevania Requiem inputting the code on the title screen lets you access the Akumajo Dracula Peke minigame from Castlevania: Rondo of Bloodnote , with the message at the end now informing you there's "no extra life codes" and calling you a "cheater".
In an interesting take on the Konami Code in mobile games, in Dankira!!! -Boys, be DANCING!-'s offline mode, on the title screen swipe in the directional order of the Code and tap the capital letters 'B' and 'A' in the game's subtitle. After hearing the title for the 2nd time, tap 'Touch Screen' to start up the game and then head to the preview room. This unlocks the game's BGM used in events and the stories.
In the Tokimeki Memorial Spin-Off mobile game title Tokimeki Idol, inputting the Konami Code in the player profile's comments unlocks Mirror Mode in Lives. Like the Dankira example above, this only applies to offline mode.
Insaniquarium Deluxe uses this code to open up the Sandbox, which not only lets the player do whatever the hell they want within said Sandbox, but also gives him/her/it a shiny new trophy and lets them put a whole batch of extra pets into their Virtual Tank.
In the English version of the game Hyperdimension Neptunia, Neptune invokes her EX-Skill with the quote "Up, Up, down, down, left, right—aww, whatever... Secret Code entered!"
The game Gundam SEED Destiny: Generation of C.E. features the "SEED Sense" effect, where starting to watch an attack animation had the chance to prompt you to push one of the PS2 controller face buttons. Doing so had the chance to improve any number of things, and even prevent death automatically at low health an unlimited number of times, as long as you hit the right button. However, starting an attack animation locked you into viewing it, so the game took longer to play and got stale more quickly. How do you get out of the attack animations after using your "SEED Sense," you ask? Push Down, Down, Up, Up, Right, Left, Right, Left, R3, L3, and Start. An inverted Konami code.
In the online game Kingdom of Loathing, the code was the answer to a puzzle in the Naughty Sorceress' Tower until a revamp of the tower in January 2015 removed it.
Ditto in Dumb: The Game.
In Super Monkey Ball Jr., entering the code on the title screen changes "Monkey Ball" on the title screen to "Nice Try".
Iji has a logbook that encourages you to try the Konami Code on the start menu. If you do, a dialogue scrolls across the screen chiding you for beating tired old memes to death.
In Samurai Zombie Nation, entering the code while the game is paused refills your life, but unfortunately it doesn't work on bosses.
Entering the code in Achievement Unlocked (a Flash Platformer where the only object is to collect enough Cosmetic Awards to get 100% Completion) gives you the achievement "Too Much Contra".
Tengen's NES version of Tetris uses the Konami code to activate a precursor to later Tetris games' "hold piece" feature. Inputting the code while the game is paused replaces your current piece with an I piece, as seen in this video. It only works once per 30-line section.
Star Ocean: Till the End of Time does a weird thing with this. Somewhere in the middle of the game, you can pick up a special trophy if you allowed Roger to join your party. Entering the code with it equipped on someone killed that character and dealt damage in a large area equivalent to one-half the HP of that person. Upgrading the effect merely swapped the last two buttons (X and Circle) that would do this.
8ing/Raizing's shooters (particularly Battle Garegga, Armed Police Batrider, and Battle Bakraid) have a variant of this: entering Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, A, B, C at the title screen after inserting your coins will trigger extra features, usually Guest Ships and Characters from past Raizing games (in Garegga and Batrider) or all-new ships (in Bakraid, and you must input the code at a rate of 1 button press per second).
Entering the Konami Code in the main menu of Reset Generation opens up a Space Invaders-esque minigame.
Seen in the console versions of Quake IV, where the Konami code gives you all weapons, armor, and health.
Seen in a slightly truncated form in the Sega arcade game Manx TT Superbike, entering Gear Up, Gear Up, Gear Down, Gear Down, Left, Right, Brake Accelerate would allow you to... ride a sheep instead of a motorbike.
A puzzle in Tales of Phantasia has the party hitting floor switches in a precise order. The order is "Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right"
If you enter the code on the title screen of Viva Piñata Party Animals on the Xbox 360, you will get the Classic Gamer achievement. The instruction manual even has the code spread out over most of the pages.
Entering up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, square on the title screen of Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped unlocks a demo of Spyro the Dragon.
No More Heroes: It's available during the continue screen in the shmup homage just before the 4th ranked fight. Using the code will grant you a free continue while pressing any other button/combination will result in the Game Over countdown going faster.
The Borderlands series
The first game, Borderlands 1: Mad Moxxi's first husband was a cheat. No points for guessing what Visual Pun appears in the background when she says this.
In Borderlands 2, entering the code on the start screen activates the ability to toggle "Extra Wubs". As the game itself states, it does absolutely nothing.
Burai Fighter Deluxe on the original Game Boy used this code.
Used by Mylandah in Battle Athletes to confuse a robot in a three-legged race.
Used by 3D Dot Game Heroes to make your shield invisible.
Entering the code on the title screen of the Homestar Runner game TROGDOR! will give the player 30 lives instead of 3.
LittleBigPlanet 2
"Set Controls for the Heart of the Negativitron" has an Easter Egg where if you use a Controlinator to enter it on a seemingly broken arcade game, it will explode displaying an 8 digit code on the wall behind where it was.
Inputting the Konami Code early in the level "Got the Hump" makes disco music play and makes the camel and miniboss wear sunglasses.
One player-made level recreates the first stage of Contra, and has stickers with images of the buttons involved in the code hidden throughout. Finding them all and affixing them to a board at the start activates infinite lives.
In Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World, holding L2 and R2 (or the two triggers in the Xbox 360 version) and entering the code will cause your character to explode into a pile of coins.
Using the code on the title screen of Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd you steal our garbage? activates Pen Ward's "secret screen".
In a cutscene in Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal, Al uses the code "Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Circle, Square, Square" and unlocks Captain Qwark in a tutu in the in-game Captain Qwark vid-comic. It really works.
The Xbox port of Half-Life 2 adds the code as a way to regain 25 health.
In The 3-D Battles of WorldRunner and Cosmic Epsilon, entering the code would merely produce the message "I am not Konami."
In the SuperGrafx version of Daimakaimura, the code allows the player to add up to nine credits.
In Final Fantasy VI Brave New World, the code is the input for Sabin's Bum Rush technique.
In Arnold Palmer's Tournament Golf, after missing 100 shots on a single stage, the code can be entered on the Game Over screen to play a Mini-Game version of Fantasy Zone.
In the Sega Genesis version of Sonic the Hedgehog pressing up, down, left, right, A, start on the title screen brings the player to a menu where all the levels in the game are accessible.
In Abobo's Big Adventure, continues in the "Contrabobo" level require entering the "code for more lives," which can also be used to unlock a two-player mode.
The Amazon also references this code in the Balloon Trip section of the "Pro Wrabobo" level if you attack him.
Amazon: Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, FART!
In Billy vs. SNAKEMAN there's a 1 in 10 chance executing these movements will save you from an otherwise fatal Phase attack (Phases are the Kaiju which attack villages, fought one on one in their home ground). Knowing this sequence in-universe is the reward for the quest "Thirty Lives", which consists of supporting the rooftop concert of several female NPCs, whose instructions to the crowd reference it.
Entering the Konami Code in Mari0 activates the cheat codes without having to complete the Super Mario Bros. levels first.
The Konami Code is used as the input code for Luna's Reiki skill in Pony Fantasy VI.

Order of Twilight has the Ascend spell, which is activated by inputting the directional part of the Konami Code (Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right). It just gives Twilight wings that she can't even use. Since you can't use this spell until after you finish the game, this is somewhat of a Bragging Rights Reward.
In Just Dance 3 for the Wii, PS3, and Xbox 360, Barbra Streisand Extreme Mode is unlocked by using the directional part of the Konami Code.
In Grandia, a character mistakenly quotes the directions of the Code when trying to remember a password to open a necessary door in the enemy fortress and progress in the game. The actual password is a slightly reshuffled version. Entering the correct code without finding the password in-game results in a brief scene where a flustered Justin tells the others he was just pushing random buttons.
One type of loading screen in Ghost Recon: Future Soldier shows a diagram of your controller which, when any buttons are pressed, will list all the actions performed by that button in gameplay. Enter the Konami Code on this screen and the loading icon in the corner will spin around in place.
Entering the code from the title screen of Bravely Default will unlock the Sequel Hook video (although much of it won't make sense until well past halfway through the plot).
In Hands On! Tangrams, performing the Konami Code at the title screen results in a fanfare with a message telling you that you have been granted 30 lives. (The joke is that the game doesn't have lives.)
In the arcade cabinet "Ms. Pac-Man & Galaga 20 Year Reunion", keying in "Up, Up, Up, Down, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left Right, Left, Right" after inserting enough credits, and then pressing the Ms. Pac-man start button starts a game of the original Pac-man.

Mao: Games have cheat codes, too! What was it already? Up, up, down, down...
Elder Xelpud in La-Mulana makes a reference to the Konami Code in one of his 'guy ranting about old video games' dialogues. He doesn't know what it is, though, as he's an NES-hating MSX fanboy, and MSX games don't use the Konami code.
In Jardinains!, the cheat codes "uuddlrlrba" and "upupdowndownleftrightleftrightbastart" turn your balls into powerful Brickplow Boomers. Oddly enough, there's a different cheat codenote that'll give you 30 lives.
In Assassin's Creed III, after summoning a turkey by whistling from a corner at the Davenport Homestead, you can enter the Konami Code to give the turkey a hood just like Connor's. Technically, it's only the actual Konami Code in the Xbox version because it's the only one with all the appropriate buttons (and even then lacks use of the Start button): on the PS3, it's Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, O, X, and on the PC it's 2, 2, 4, 4, 1, 3, 1, 3, E, Space.
After selecting the "Enter Code" option and entering the Konami Code in Super Mario Bros. Crossover, all cheat codes are unlocked. The Contra title theme plays as a hint to this (and in fact the code must be entered while this is playing).

In the game The Escapists, entering the directional component at the prison select screen unlocks all the levels up to HMP-Irongate.
In The Darkside Detective, McQueen finds a newspaper with the headline "Computer Stock Goes Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start". He adds that he regrets having read it out loud, because it feels like a magical incantation to him and now he's going to worry about what it did.
In Snailiad, an NPC snail starts reciting the code, then realises it's thinking of the wrong game.
Ori and the Blind Forest: Inputting this code (without the start at the end) under a certain waterfall will give Ori a rainbow trail
