How to Hack Any Game with just Cheat Engine

Have you ever wished for tons of money? It might take you years to earn it in real life, but in games it’s just a matter of a few minutes and so “tweaking”. If you’ve ever googled about hacking a game, then you must have heard of Cheat Engine.
Cheat Engine is a tool which opens up a lot of possibilities and learning to use it well goes a long way into getting a hack to work. Don’t think that this trick applies to everything in a game, some games have parameters which aren’t displayed numerically such as your health bar in games like Assassins Creed or may be thinking to hack car speed in Need For Speed (because the speed changes rapidly). So you must be wondering that where will this even work!? Well, this trick will definitely work on somewhat static things and on things which do no change quite fast but with skill you can even hack Need For Speed and the more difficult to catch parameters in games.
Cheat Engine is often used to make trainers
Let’s say you want to hack the amount of money in a game, since money is fixed/constant and isn’t going to change automatically. Let’s begin, download and install Cheat Engine. Now start your game, in my tutorial I’ll be going with “Watch Dogs” since it’s a new game. Load your game, and start playing. A middle click in the game and we get to know how much money we have. Please note that you might run a different game and therefore there could be different ways to know your current money. Anyway, note down your money somewhere (we’ll need it later). Now press “Alt Tab” to switch between your game and Cheat Engine. Click on the “Open Process” button or navigate to “File>Open Process” and a popup would appear with the list of all the processes running. Within that list, locate your game, and double click on it. Now your game has been loaded in Cheat Engine.
Now look in Cheat Engine, there would be a text field, placed just below the text “Value”. In that field, enter your money that you copied from the game, and then just make sure that the scan type is “Exact Value” and value type is set to “4 bytes”. Now press the “New Scan” button, after a few seconds you will see a very long list appear in the left column. If it’s not very long and has only 10-50 results then skip the next paragraph.
Since the list is very long, you would need to filter out the useless values or else the game might crash. Alt Tab into the game and do something by which you lose or earn some money. As I was playing Watch Dogs, so for me, looting a car would do, or maybe in your games you know what you need to do in order to earn or increase the money at least by 1 buck. Now again copy the increased/decreased money and then Alt Tab into Cheat Engine and then paste this new amount in the text field and then press “Next Scan”. Now newer values would be updated in the left column. There are chances that this time also the result is not under 50 and there are way too many values. So all you need to do is to repeat the process specified in this paragraph until less than 50 results in the left column. For Watch Dogs I had to do this around 3-4 times.
Now select all of these remaining results by clicking on any one of them and then pressing “Ctrl A” and then just drag them and drop them into the white area just below, or you may also press the red arrow pointing towards lower right side. Now in the white area, again select all the results and then right click on them and then go to “Change Record > Value”. A popup would appear and in this enter the amount of money that you want to gain (just don’t define insanity) and then press “ok”. Now make sure that every result’s value column has that value that you just put in that popup box. Now click on the check box of every result, present under “Active”.
Now again press Alt Tab and check your money. If it has been updated to your hacked value then cheer otherwise the change might be reflected when you loose or gain some money. This trick is not just limited to Watch Dogs or any other game, neither it is limited to money only. You can use this trick to hack other games as long as it isn’t an online games, then there are chances that it might not work, but still you can give it a shot.
