Settle in with your favorite snack (or cheat code for infinite snacks), because we’re about to explore every corner of this sandbox with all the best cheats The Sims 4 has to offer.

Why Use Sims 4 Cheat Codes?

Cheats in The Sims 4 are more than just “easy money”—they’re creative tools to rewrite your Sim’s destiny. Maybe you want to push them from a zero-skill newcomer to a professional chef or artist in a single afternoon. Or, perhaps you aim for a romantic drama at breakneck speed? Cheats let you sculpt your story, whether that means elevating your Sim to unstoppable stardom, building an unbeatable mansion from day one, or simply catering to your meddlesome side by messing with the neighbors.

Using cheats can also help you shortcut slogging tasks—like refilling your Sim’s hunger bar so you can skip dinner and keep building. If you’ve ever grown impatient with everyday chores while longing for more interesting plot points (like alien abductions or vampire vs. werewolf showdowns), cheat codes are your best friend.

Enabling Cheats: PC, PS4/PS5 & Xbox

Before you can harness all these powers, you have to enable cheats in your game save. Remember: enabling cheats will disable achievements or trophies for that particular save file. Let’s see how you do it on various platforms.

On PC

1. Load The Sims 4 and hit Ctrl + Shift + C on your keyboard. A text box will pop up at the top-left corner of the screen.
2. Type testingCheats true and press Enter. You’ll receive a message: “Cheats are enabled.”

On PlayStation (PS4 / PS5)

1. Press and hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2. Once the cheat console appears, let go.
2. Type testingCheats true and press Done. Cheats are now active!

On Xbox (Xbox One / Xbox Series X / Series S)

1. Hold LT + RT + LB + RB for a couple of seconds.
2. Type testingCheats true into the displayed text box.
3. Press Done, and you’ll see a note that cheats have been activated.

Using The Sims 4 Cheat Console

Once “testingCheats true” is active, you can start typing in the codes listed throughout this guide. The generic usage steps are:

1. Open the cheat console (Ctrl + Shift + C on PC, or shoulder buttons on console).
2. Type your code—for instance, motherlode—and press Enter.
3. You’re good to go!

These standard steps suffice for the majority of cheats. Some “Interaction Cheats,” however, require you to hold certain keys while clicking on the Sim or object.

Interaction Cheats (TestingCheats)

A few cheats in The Sims 4 revolve around interactions, letting you:

• Shift-Click on a Sim or object (on PC)
• Hover + Press X (PS4/PS5)
• Hover + Press A (Xbox)

With that, you’ll see a small menu of cheat options. Here are some popular ones:

• Cheat Need > Make Happy: Fills motives to max and sets mood to “Happy.”
• Cheat Need > Enable or Disable Need Decay: Allows or stops your Sims from losing motive bars.
• Reset Object: Resets Sims or objects to their default state.
• Add to Family: Include a non-household Sim in your current household.
• Modify in CAS: Open that Sim in Create-a-Sim mode to tweak appearance, traits, etc.
• Make Dirty / Make Clean: Toggle cleanliness of an object.
• Teleport Sim: Move them anywhere you want in a snap.
• Make Head: (Goofy) Puts any item on your Sim’s head.

Money Cheats: Motherlode and Beyond

Hence the classic “motherlode” cheat that catapulted the Sims franchise’s popularity. Gaming sessions are so much easier with huge wads of Simoleons at your disposal. If you feel that building a palace from scratch is a bit tedious, these codes are for you:

• kaching or rosebud – Grants 1,000 Simoleons.
• motherlode – Instantly gifts you 50,000 Simoleons.
• Money X – Type any number for that exact total of Simoleons in your household funds. (e.g., “Money 999999”)
• FreeRealEstate on/off – Make all neighborhood lots free or revert them.
• household.autopay_bills true/false – Turn off or on your bills.

Money can’t buy happiness—but it sure buys fancy furniture. Another tip: combine money cheats with Build Mode freedom for some truly over-the-top mansions.

Build Mode Cheats

Speaking of building, The Sims 4 has many codes to help you build your dream home:

• bb.moveobjects – Overcome object-placement rules; place items floating, overlapping, etc.
• bb.showhiddenobjects – Reveal locked/hidden items in the catalogue.
• bb.enablefreebuild – Build on locked lots like the hospital or police station (especially relevant for expansions).
• bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement – Unlock items usually tied to career progress, e.g., high-level career rewards.

With these unlimited building tools, you can orchestrate architectural wonders—sprawling mansions, underground bunkers, or futuristic labs—without the game second-guessing your design. Let your imagination run wild!

Live Mode Cheats

Sometimes you just want to skip the everyday hassles. Live Mode cheats can solve minor issues:

• resetsim [firstname lastname] – Resets a stuck Sim. The correct spelling is crucial.
• aspirations.complete_current_milestone – Immediately fulfill the current aspiration milestone of a Sim.
• sims.give_satisfaction_points [#] – Award your Sim that many satisfaction points. Perfect for grabbing Reward Traits.
• fillmotive motive_[Bladder/Energy/Fun/Hunger/Hygiene/Social] – Pick which need you want maxed.
• sims.fill_all_commodities – With one line, everyone in the household gets their bars filled.

Live Mode cheats are especially handy if you want more time to shape stories rather than babysit your Sims’ bathroom breaks.

Skill Cheats (Adult & Child)

Leveling up Baking, Wedding Cake-making, or Programming can get repetitive. Instantly become an expert with these skill cheats:

For Adult Sims:

 (Replace “10” with any level if you prefer partial mastery.)

For Child & Toddler Sims:

Instant whiz kids! Now your kid can top school projects effortlessly or your toddler can breeze through the dreaded potty-training stage.

Career Cheats

From Astronaut to Chef, The Sims 4 has many ways to make a living. If you’d rather skip the slow climb, use any of these four main commands:

For instance, “careers.promote Actor” instantly elevates an aspiring star to the next level. Below is a quick reference list for each career’s code word to type:

Career	Code
Politician	Activist
Acting	Actor
Astronaut	Astronaut
Athlete	Athletic
Business	Business
Criminal	Criminal
Critic	Careers_Adult_Critic
Culinary	Culinary
Detective	Detective
Doctor	Doctor
Entertainer	Entertainer
Painter	Painter
Scientist	Scientist
SecretAgent	SecretAgent
SocialMedia	SocialMedia
Influencer	Influencer
TechGuru	TechGuru
Writer	Writer

Teen jobs (e.g., “careers.promote Teen_Babysitter”) also exist. Jump right up the ladder if you’d like to see your teen making top-level part-time wages.

Relationship & Romance Cheats

Interpersonal drama is the heartbeat of The Sims. If you’d prefer to direct the interplay:

• relationship.introduce_sim_to_all_others – Instantly meet neighbors.
• relationships.create_friends_for_sim – Creates an instant new friend.
• modifyrelationship [Sim1FN] [Sim1LN] [Sim2FN] [Sim2LN] 100 LTR_Friendship_Main – Max friendship.
• modifyrelationship [Sim1FN] [Sim1LN] [Sim2FN] [Sim2LN] 100 LTR_Romance_Main – Max romance.

Adjust the “100” to a lesser value for moderate closeness or even negative values to create enemies. Get ready to orchestrate your personal soap opera—no guilt required.

Killing & Unkilling Cheats

Sometimes you just want chaos or a fresh storyline. The Sims 4 has some interesting un-life hacks:

• death.toggle true – Kills your Sim (the next time a fatal event occurs, they won’t survive).
• death.toggle false – Makes your Sim immune to death.
• sims.add_buff Ghostly – Temporarily transform your Sim into a ghost for four hours.
• stats.set_stat commodity_Vampire_SunExposure -100 – Instantly slays a vampire (vampire expansion required).

It’s a bit grim, but some storylines can’t flourish without a little heartbreak. Or, you can give your beloved household eternal life—no judgement.

UI & Display Cheats

These codes toggle different interface features:

• headlineeffects on/off – Show or hide speech bubbles, thought balloons, plumbobs.
• hovereffects on/off – Control the highlight glow when hovering over Sims/objects.
• fullscreenToggle – Switch between fullscreen and windowed mode.
• fps on/off – Show your frames per second in the corner.
