Below are listed all known cheat codes for SimCity
3000. Please use these at your own risk - we recommend that you save another copy of
your city before using the codes, just in case. We are not responsible for any
damage these may cause you or your computer. HAVE FUN!
However, we do not recommend using cheats until you have learned the game well. (It may seem fun at first, but it quickly becomes boring - trust us, we checked each code and it got boring!) Cheating is no replacement for knowledge and experience as mayor. Don't worry if you don't know the game though, the more you play, the more you'll learn!
Make All Buildings Available!
You can have all SimCity 3000 structures available at the click of a mouse very
simply. You will be able to build anything you want by simply selecting it from the
Landmarks window! All zoned buildings are free to build, but everything else you
will have to pay for (i.e. power plants, police and fire stations, schools, etc).
Just open and close the following windows in the order they are listed and if done right,
all buildings will appear in the Landmarks window:
1. Power plants
2. Rewards and Opportunities
3. Garbage facilities
4. Landmarks
To enter codes, load a city and press the following: Windows: Ctrl + Shift + Alt + C or Macintosh: Cmd + Option + Shift + C. A small text box will open in the upper left corner of the screen. Type any of the following codes into that box. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
