Tidy Up History: Cheat Codes

Hints & Cheats menu codes for keys, knowledge books, label drawers, and emergency LevelUp — fair route on the hub, codes if you are stuck.

Last updated: September 18, 2026

Quick Answer

Pause → Hints & Cheats → enter code. Keys, Knowledge, and Labels A–Z listed below. LevelUp : 21122124 if ability picks soft-locked your XP. I play fair first.

Hi, I'm Vook, a completionist who documents cheat menus because soft-locks happen — not because I think skipping sixteen keys is a good time.

Blunt take: the whole game is finding and restoring things. Punching codes deletes the puzzle. I only touch this menu for one missing pickup after I have walked the wing twice, or a LevelUp rescue if my ability tree boxed me in. Your save, your call.

Fair route: hub walkthrough. Audio and map hints without codes: beginners' tips.


How to enter codes

  1. Pause the game.
  2. Open Hints & Cheats.
  3. Type the code string exactly (case-sensitive as listed).
  4. Confirm — the item spawns or the effect triggers.

For a legal hint instead of spawning loot: same menu → enable Show Pickups On Map (tips).

World pickups (not codes): label locations.


Emergency LevelUp

Soft-locked because your ability picks cut off repair XP and you cannot afford the next unlock?

Code Effect
LevelUp 21122124

Triggers a level up without grinding. If this happens often, note which abilities you bought — worth reporting on the dev forum so they can rebalance. I still prefer stuck checklist before I cheat levels.


What I actually recommend

Situation Vook verdict
One missing key/book after a full lap Show Pickups On Map first
Repeated blind searching One targeted code, then turn map hints off
Full code dump day one You bought a museum screensaver
XP soft-lock LevelUp once, then finish fair
