Forager Cheats
- You want endless rainbow effects?
- You don’t want to kill the beets?
- You seek advanced settings?
- Welcome to the secret options!
Wait.. did I hear secret options?
Yes individual Forager, you heard right! There are some settings, which are currently unavailable in the sport and might only be accessed from the game’s save folder.
Considering that the knowledge of its existence is still not propagate, we refer to them as key options.
Some of those options may not stay secret forever, but will move to the game’s settings menu in the future, so this guide will get upgraded as soon as changes are being created.
But where do I find those secret options?
Glad that you asked, dear fellow Forager!
Here you can find your save data for the different operating systems:
Windows:
%localappdata%/Forager
or
C:/Users/<username>/AppData/Local/Forager
Mac OS:
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/com.hopfrog.forager/
Linux:
/home/<username>/.config/forager
The file you are looking for is called “secretOptions.ini”!
So, what do these do?
Note: Before changing these values, I recommend closing the game.
