Yes—unlocking CRACK’s developer commands disables Steam Achievements, Stats, and Leaderboards for the current game session. The restriction is temporary: fully restart CRACK and those Steam features can update again. The two cosmetic commands fog and mute_pa are exceptions; they work without the developer password and do not disable achievement tracking.
CRACK is Rafoli’s 1–4-player co-op egg-breaking adventure on Steam for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It has no PlayStation or Xbox release, so there are no console trophies or Xbox achievements to lose. References to “trophies” in this context mean Steam achievements.
Do CRACK cheats disable achievements?
They do when you unlock the developer command set. A 9to5Gaming guide published on 28 October 2026 reports that CRACK displays an in-game warning saying achievements and stats remain disabled until a restart. Its FAQ states that developer commands turn off Steam Achievements, Stats, and Leaderboards until you restart the game.
This is a session-level switch, not a permanent lock on your Steam account or achievement list. If you want a clean achievement session, do not enter the unlock command before playing it. If you have already enabled the console, close the game completely and launch it again before attempting achievements.
The available evidence comes from the game’s unlock notification and the post-launch guide; Rafoli’s Steam store page and launch announcements do not separately document the flag. No source reports a permanent account penalty, a requirement to delete a save, or a need to create a new Steam account.
How do I unlock CRACK’s developer console?
You need a running game session and a keyboard. The console is hidden until you enter the unlock sequence.
- Start CRACK and load a game.
- Press
Ctrl + Shift + ~. The tilde key is normally directly below the Escape key, although its physical location can vary with keyboard layouts. - Type
unlock_commands 741852963and press Enter. - Wait for the confirmation notification. It also warns that achievements and stats stay disabled until you restart.
- Use Tab for command autocomplete. Press Esc to close the console.
Most commands that alter money, movement, progression, time, or the world work only when you are playing solo or hosting the session. Joining another player’s lobby does not guarantee that a world-changing command will execute. The achievement restriction is separate: once you unlock the developer commands on your client, the session is treated as a cheat-enabled session even if a particular command cannot run in someone else’s lobby.
Which CRACK commands do not disable achievements?
Only two documented commands are safe to use during an achievement-focused session. They are available without unlock_commands and change presentation rather than progression.
| Command | Effect | Needs developer unlock? | Achievement effect |
|---|---|---|---|
fog |
Toggles world-fog visibility | No | Does not disable achievements |
mute_pa |
Enables or disables overhead public-address announcements | No | Does not disable achievements |
| All other listed developer commands | May alter resources, movement, progression, time, world state, camera, or endings | Yes | Disable achievements, stats, and leaderboards for the session |
Examples in the unlocked set include motherlode for money, fly and tp for movement, inf_toolbox, progression commands such as catalog and task_complete, world controls such as time and trigger_event, and camera or ending commands including freecam, simend, and simend escape. The command families also include garage, quarters, gateway, drone, checkpoint, save, HUD, nameplate, arcade-score, and timelapse controls. Because they are behind the password, treat all of them as achievement-disabling.
How do I restore Steam achievement tracking after cheating?
Restarting the game is the documented recovery method. It does not require a new Steam account or a reinstall.
- Close CRACK fully rather than merely hiding the console.
- Launch the game again.
- Do not enter
unlock_commandsin the new session. - Play and complete the actions for the achievements you want to earn.
The sources do not establish whether a save created while developer commands were enabled remains flagged after the restart. They also do not say that Steam Cloud must be disabled, that a save must be deleted, or that progress made during the cheat session is automatically rolled back. The safe, documented approach is to restart before beginning the achievement attempt and avoid the unlock command in that session.
Does CRACK have PlayStation trophies or Xbox achievements?
No. As of 29 October 2026, CRACK is a Steam-only PC game. It released on 26 October 2026 for Windows, macOS, and Linux and is Steam Deck Verified. The Steam listing supports Xbox and PlayStation controllers as input devices, but those controller icons do not indicate console versions.
Consequently, there is no PlayStation trophy set, Xbox achievement list, or console-specific cheat behavior to check. Steam Achievements are the only platform achievement system currently attached to this game. A future console port could change that, but no such port has been announced in the available launch material.
How many achievements can cheats block?
CRACK has 40 Steam achievements, six of them hidden. Enabling the developer commands disables the system that records any of them during that session; there is no published figure for how many achievements a particular cheat session “loses.”
The six hidden achievements
| Hidden achievement | Requirement described by achievement trackers |
|---|---|
| Well Done | Deliver the specimen |
| Free Range | Help the specimen escape |
| Bad Listener | Enter the Do Not Enter door |
| Cold Case | Open the suspicious vent |
| Access Granted | Gain access to the [REDACTED] room |
| Paper Trail | Find every clipboard |
simend and simend escape can force an ending, but they require the unlock sequence. They therefore both bypass the intended progression and run in a session where achievement credit is disabled. The two ending achievements, Well Done and Free Range, remain separate objectives for a normal playthrough.
Exophase’s snapshot accessed on 29 October 2026 tracked 625 players, 4,811 achievements earned, and one player in its 100% club. Its examples ranged from First Crack at 99.36% to Snake Whisperer at 0.64%, Pest Control at 1.44%, and Well Rested at 2.40%. Those are tracker snapshots, not a guarantee of the current Steam-wide percentages; review and player totals change over time.
Should I use cheats in a solo run or a co-op game?
Choose based on whether the session is for experimentation or a clean completion profile.
For a clean 100% attempt
- Do not enter
unlock_commands 741852963. - Use only
fogormute_paif you want their visual or audio changes. - Complete progression and endings through normal in-game actions.
For a sandbox or practice session
- Use a solo game or host your own lobby, since many world-changing commands are host-restricted.
- Assume every password-protected command disables Steam tracking until the next full restart.
- After experimenting, quit and relaunch before starting the run in which achievements matter.
When joining a friend
A command can fail because you are not the host, but that failure does not make the unlock sequence safe. The restriction is applied when the developer commands are unlocked, so do not enter the password in a co-op session you intend to count toward achievements.
Is using CRACK’s console a VAC ban risk?
CRACK’s console is an official in-game developer feature, not a third-party trainer or an external memory editor. The available information does not report a VAC ban rate or any account bans connected with it, and VAC is not presented as relevant to this single-player/co-op console. That does not change the achievement rule: the game itself suspends Steam Achievements, Stats, and Leaderboards for the enabled session.
Achievement-hunting communities set their own standards. Unified Achievement Hunting Rules generally reject outside trainers, Cheat Engine, and achievement managers, while an official in-game console can be treated differently from those tools. Some trackers still classify a console-enabled run as cheating under their local policy. If a profile must meet a specific site’s rules, check that site’s current policy before using the console.
Do Chill Mode or Offline Mode change the rule?
Steam news for version 1.1.0, posted on 28 October 2026, lists public lobbies, a pocket slot, Chill Mode, and Offline Mode. No published note establishes whether any of those modes changes the developer-console flag or achievement behavior. Until Rafoli documents an exception, apply the same rule in every mode: password-protected commands disable tracking for the session, while fog and mute_pa are the documented cosmetic exceptions.
What is the safest way to plan an achievement run?
Separate experimentation from completion. Use one session to learn the laboratory, test movement or camera controls, and inspect alternate endings with the developer console. Then close the game, relaunch it without the unlock command, and begin the run intended for Steam achievements. This avoids relying on undocumented behavior about cheated saves or cloud synchronization and preserves a clear distinction between a sandbox session and a normal completion attempt.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will restarting CRACK delete my cheated progress?
No source says a restart wipes progress, requires a new save, or disables Steam Cloud. The documented action is simply to close and relaunch the game; whether a save made during a cheat-enabled session carries any lasting flag has not been established.
Can I unlock achievements later if a developer command did not work?
The command’s success is not the deciding factor. Entering the developer unlock sequence is what places the session under the disabled-achievement state, so start a fresh session before attempting the achievement.
Does CRACK’s Steam Deck version use a different achievement rule?
CRACK is Steam Deck Verified, but no separate Deck behavior is documented. Steam Deck runs the Steam version, so use the same restart-and-avoid-the-unlock procedure.
Where can I see CRACK’s hidden achievement names?
Achievement trackers such as Exophase list the six hidden entries and their requirements, including the two separate endings and the clipboard, vent, door, and restricted-room objectives. Their counts and rarity percentages are snapshots that can change.
