How to Cheat at Cafe World
December 31, 2009 – 2:40 pmCafe World is a time management game that is all the rage on Facebook. I use the term loosely because it is not much of a game in my opinion. You click some things for a minute or two then wait a day. You do this over and over again and it is supposed to be fun.
The game's logic appears to be almost entirely in the client and the server will accept any old data. For fun and profit I used Cheat Engine to speed time up in the game so my dishes cooked 20x faster than normal.
Here is how I did it.
- Load up Cafe World
- Start Cheat Engine
- Click Search
- Find Firefox and click it.
- Click open.
- Check Enable Speed Hack
- Set the Speed to 20. Any lower is too slow, any higher and it won't work.
- Click Apply.
- Make the longest taking highest level dishes you can.
- Repeat 9 until you get tired.
- Make your fiance cry because you just surpassed her months of work in a week.
A note about the speed setting. It may seem like a good idea to crank that sucker up to 500, but you quickly lose connection with the server and the game reloads. Once the game reloads the time left on your dishes resets to what they should be.
Another note... this method should work on any of the time based games on FB. Good times.
