Fate Hunters – Unlimited Gold Cheat

This guide will show you how to edit your save file to increase the amount of gold you have. This will allow you to purchase new characters or item cards and thus avoid the frustration caused by the progression system in this game.

Motivation

The progression system in this game can be very frustrating. In order to unlock new content (karakters, item cards, enz.) for future runs, you need gold. To collect gold, you have very few options, none of which are consequences of a good run where you managed to get far.

One option is to pick the Stash kaart, which saves some gold for 2 points at the Fortune Teller, d.w.z. the checkpoint where you can pick a Tarot card, right after the level boss. I made the mistake of overlooking this card for a long time, so I want to make up for lost time here.

Another option is to flee the dungeon before you die, d.w.z. end your run early. I find this design choice frustrating because I want to see the end of my runs rather than choosing to end the current run to grind gold. This can happen with

• De Ontsnappen card at the fortune teller,
• De Teleporteren Scroll, which is not a guaranteed card.

Eindelijk, half of your gold can be saved with the Tarot card called “De keizerin“. This is not a guaranteed card, as you can choose any one of three cards at any time.

This guide will show you how to edit your save file to increase the amount of gold you have. This will allow you to purchase new characters or item cards and avoid the frustration caused by the game’s progression system.

Find your Save file

The game supports Steam Cloud, which means that saves are stored in a specific location on your PC, which is then backed up to the cloud. Find the location of your game folder for Steam Cloud. Typisch

C:\Programmabestanden (x86)\Steam\userdata\YOUR_ID\920680\remote\

waar YOUR_ID is a number that identifies your Steam account. If you only have one account on your computer, there will only be one folder in Steam\userdata\, so it will be easy to figure out.

Edit your save file

In the above folder, the backup file is named UserProgress.

This is actually a JSON file that can be edited with any text editor. Rename the file to UserProgress.json and open it with Visual Studio, Bijvoorbeeld.

The top of the file should look like this:

{
"id": 16,
"goud": 276,
"dungeonLevel": 4,
"fastMode": WAAR,
"hardMode": vals,

Edit the value for “goud”. Bijvoorbeeld, gebruik 9999, so it should look like this:

{
"id": 16,
"goud": 9999,
"dungeonLevel": 4,
"fastMode": WAAR,
"hardMode": vals,

Eindelijk, rename the file from UserProgress.json naar UserProgress and run the game!

Caveat

Here is the result of editing the save file. Let op de 9999 in the lower left corner.

Note that progression is not entirely tied to gold, bijv. the Raider cannot be purchased here. You may be able to unlock this character by editing your save, but that is beyond the scope of this guide.
