Cheat Codes

Age Of Empires 2 Definitive Edition Steam

• marco: Reveals the entire map. It works as a switch — on or off — so entering it again will hide the map.
• polo: Removes the fog of war. This too works as a switch, like so entering it again will restore the fog of war.
• alpaca simulator: Creates an “Alfred the Alpaca”, which looks like a Llama. Very high armour value, trample damage, and attacks with headbutts. Strong in melee combat, weak against speed, ranged attack.
• catzor: Creates an “Sharkatzor”, which resembled a flying shark with rockets launches on its back. Has a very high damage capacity, and has a 10 square firing sight line.
• furious the monkey boy: Creates a “Furious the Monkey Boy”. Destroys buildings easily, but slow and dies after taking nine hits.
• how do you turn this on: Creates an “AC Cobra”. Fires rounds of bullets, impressive long range, and high hit points, armour, and damage. Poor AI, bullets harm friendly units.
• i don’t exist: Creates a “Penguin”. High armour and damage.
• i love the monkey head: Creates a “VMDL”. Quick and good for exploring. Cannot attack but grant attack bonus to buildings if garrisoned. Fun fact: VMDL stands for Villager Male David Lewis and in case you’re wondering, David Lewis was in the team that made the game.
• to smithereens: Creates a Saboteur. More effective and faster than a Petard, the only non-cheat suicide unit on land.
• cheese steak jimmy’s: Increases Food by 10,000.
• lumberjack: Increases Wood by 10,000.
• robin hood: Increases Gold by 10,000.
• rock on: Increases Stone by 10,000.
• ninjaconnor / ninjalui / rowshep: Increases all resources by 1,00,000 (You only have to input ONE of the three codes here, not all 3. I have no idea why they did this).
• !mute: Silences taunts. That’s it.
• !nomute: Reverses !mute.
• aegis: Building, researching, resource gathering, and training is done instantly — for everyone including the AI. Works like a switch, so can be turned off.
• black death: Kills all other civilisations, except yours. Yes, even your allies.
• i r winner: Declares your civilisation as the winner.
• natural wonders: Transfers player control to nature, in lieu of losing control of your civilisation. It is irreversible — there’s no way to regain control of your civilisation other than starting a new game.
• resign: You lose the game.
• torpedo XXXXX: Kills the specified civilisation, where “X” is civilisation number from 1 – 8.
• wimpywimpywimpy: Kills all of your units, resulting in the same outcome as resign.
• woof woof: Transforms birds into “Stormy Dogs”. They are flying dogs with red capes. No gameplay change.
