Chaos Strikes Back Cheats and Hacks

Ending animation

To watch the ending animation, you can replace the introduction by the ending animation:

• Chaos Strikes Back Amiga: Delete the file “ANIM.DAT” on the utility disk (make a backup before), copy the file “ENDA.DAT” from the game disk to the utility disk and rename it to “ANIM.DAT”. Boot the utility disk and click “Introduction”.
• Chaos Strikes Back X68000: Rename the file “ANIM.DAT” to “ANIM.BAK” and the file “ENDA.DAT” to “ANIM.DAT”. Boot the disk and click “Introduction”.

Secret character

Copy the file “MINI.DAT” from the Chaos Strikes Back Utility Disk to your save game disk, rename it to “CSBGAME.DAT”, then load it as your saved game. You will have the following champion:

Portrait, Name, Gender and Skills (Level in each hidden skill)	Statistics		Equipment
/ Amiga, FM-Towns, X68000 / Atari ST In the PC-9801 version, the portrait is all black. Halk Gonzo Barbarian (Male) Artisan Fighter (Swing: 6, Thrust: 6, Club: 2, Parry: 2) Apprentice Ninja (Steal: 2, Fight: 2, Throw: 2, Shoot: 2) Apprentice Priest (Identify: 2, Heal: 2, Influence: 2, Defend: 2) Apprentice Wizard (Fire: 2, Air: 2, Earth: 2, Water: 2)	Health Stamina Mana Luck Strength Dexterity Wisdom Vitality Anti-Magic Anti-Fire Load	602 126 204 77 82 72 67 77 72 67 76	In Atari ST version only: Chest [Lock Picks, Boots Of Speed, Corbum (4), Iron Key (2)]

It works with all versions of the game: Atari ST, Amiga, X68000, FM-Towns and PC-9801.
Note: There are two additional bytes at the beginning of the MINI.DAT file from the Amiga version (DEADh) and X68000 version (5223h) that you need to remove with a hexadecimal editor, otherwise the saved game won’t load.
