Rustys Retirement How to Cheat (Save File Editing Guide)

Hard work: if it is not for you, there are always cheat codes and console commands. We will show you some cheats for the Rusty’s Retirement that will make the game easier and / or more fun!

Where’s the Save File Location?

Remember: You may need to make sure that hidden folders are turned off before you start searching.

Your Rusty’s Retirement save files are located in the following folder:

C:\Users\[Your User]\AppData\LocalLow\MisterMorrisGames\Rusty’s Retirement

How to Edit Save File

Basically, you’re diving into the game files. You’ll spot a file named something like:

H3-2024-5-3-11-54-32.txt

Remember, yours might have a different name but similar vibe. Make sure to back it up before you mess with anything.

Now, just open it up with good ol’ Notepad or if you’re fancy, Notepad++. Hit up that “Ctrl + F” combo to search for what you wanna tweak.

Let’s say you’re feeling greedy for fossils, just change that 0 to a whopping 9999.

Before:

"fossils" : { "__type" : "int", "value" : 0 }

After:

"fossils" : { "__type" : "int", "value" : 9999 }

That’s another trick. If you wanna unlock anything, just switch the value from false to true.

Before:

"cropCarrotUnlocked" : { "__type" : "bool", "value" : false },

After:

“cropCarrotUnlocked” : {
“__type” : “bool”,
“value” : true
},

I hope that helped you!

Changing Save File Names

First up close the game. Having the game open while doing this will lead to a lot of issues.

Go to following file:

%USERPROFILE%/AppData/LocalLow/MisterMorrisGames/Rusty’s Retirement/

Before continuing I recommend backuping the folder, as an eror can corrupt all saved games.

Find the save file you want to modify

They follow the pattern H0 (H1, V1…) – TIME/DATE INFO.txt (or .txt.bat)

Example:

H0-2024-4-29-16-23-15.txt
Main save file (txt) for a world 1 game (H0) that was created on the 29.04.2024 at 16:23:15.

Now you can change the file:

From: H0-2024-4-29-16-23-15 (.txt and .txt.bat)
To: H0-First_World-2024-4-29-16-23-15 (.txt and .txt.bat)

Result:

Now you may need to clean up some duplicate:

This process can also lead to duplicating the game save. This is a result of the game recognizing save files only based on file name (so changing name is like generating a new game with the same gameplay progress).
This means you will find a save game “First_World-2024-4-29-16-23-15” and “2024-4-29-16-23-15” in game. You can delete the one with the old name. Do this ingame via the implemented delete function.
