Eden supports two separate enhancement features: cheat codes applied through structured text files in the mod directory, and Amiibo emulation that lets you scan virtual Amiibo figures without owning the physical accessories. Both work on desktop; Amiibo on Android is not yet available.
Cheats in Eden are plain text files placed inside a specific folder structure under the game’s mod directory. Each cheat file is tied to a build ID — a 16-character hexadecimal string that identifies the exact version of the game binary — so cheats only activate on a matching build.

Finding the build ID

The quickest way to find a build ID on desktop is to right-click the game in Ryujinx and select Manage Cheats — the build ID is displayed at the top.Alternatively, launch the game in Eden, close it, then open the log and look for a line like:
[ 27.098382] Loader <Info> core/file_sys/patch_manager.cpp:HasNSOPatch:304: Querying NSO patch existence for build_id=AEE6DCCC06D9C05B42061E2019123A61, name=main
The first 16 characters of the build_id value (before the second half) are your build ID — for example, AEE6DCCC06D9C05B.

Adding a cheat (desktop)

1

Open the mod data location

Right-click the game in Eden and select Open Mod Data Location. A file explorer opens to the mod directory for that title.
2

Create the cheat folder structure

Inside the mod directory, create a folder named after the cheat (this name appears in the Add-Ons list). Inside that folder, create a subfolder called cheats.
<mod_location>/
└── Time 999/
    └── cheats/
3

Create the cheat text file

Inside the cheats folder, create a .txt file named with the game’s build ID. For example:
AEE6DCCC06D9C05B.txt
Paste the cheat code into the file, with an optional name header:
[Time = 999]
58000000 00C88A70
78001000 00000090
64000000 00000000 003E6F00
The final path should look like:
<mod_location>/Time 999/cheats/AEE6DCCC06D9C05B.txt
4

Verify in Eden

Right-click the game and select Configure Game. The cheat should appear in the Add-Ons section with the name of the folder you created.
5

Launch and confirm

Launch the game to verify the cheat is active.

Adding a cheat (Android)

1

Create the cheat folder structure

On your device, create a folder named after the cheat. Inside it, create a subfolder called cheats.
2

Create the cheat text file

Inside cheats, create a .txt file named with the game’s build ID (for example, AEE6DCCC06D9C05B.txt) and paste your cheat code into it.
3

Install the cheat in Eden

In Eden, press and hold the game to open its properties. Scroll to Add-ons and tap + Install, then select Mods and cheats and tap OK.
4

Select the cheat folder

In the file explorer that opens, navigate to the folder you created in step 1 and select it. Confirm the screen shows the cheats subdirectory before confirming.
5

Launch and confirm

The cheat now appears in the Add-ons list. Launch the game to verify it is active.

Enabling and disabling cheats

Cheats are enabled by default once installed. To toggle them:
  • Desktop: Right-click the game, select Configure Game, tick or untick the cheat in the Add-Ons section, then click OK.
  • Android: Press and hold the game, scroll to Add-ons, and tap the cheat entry to select or deselect it. Tap OK to apply.

Multiple cheats

Each cheat requires its own named folder and cheats/BuildID.txt file. You cannot combine multiple cheats into a single file during installation.
Community member Ninjistix built nxCheat_Splitter, a Windows/Python utility that takes a multi-cheat text file and automatically generates the correct folder structure for a given build ID.Input file format:
[♯ 1. Always Star Power]
040E0000 00880580 52800035

[♯ 2. Star Power + Bubble Mode (Invincible)]
040E0000 00880580 52800075
