Conker's Bad Fur Day Cheat Codes & Secrets

Complete collection of cheat codes, passwords, unlockables, and hidden secrets for Conker's Bad Fur Day (2001).

Cheat Code Entry System

Conker’s Bad Fur Day hides its cheat menu behind a somewhat obscure path. From the main menu, select Options, then navigate to Cheats. An on-screen keyboard appears — use the analog stick to highlight letters and press A to confirm each one. Press Start or the on-screen confirm button when the full code is entered. The game gives no feedback while typing; if a code is accepted, a brief confirmation tone plays.

All codes are case-insensitive and entered as a single string with no spaces.

Chapter Select & Level Codes

The game is divided into seven chapters. Completing the story unlocks chapter select naturally, but these codes let you jump immediately.

Multiplayer Codes & Unlockables

Conker’s multiplayer is one of the N64’s most underrated — seven modes including Deathmatch, Beach, Raptor, and Heist. Most content unlocks through play, but codes accelerate access.

Multiplayer character roster (unlocked through codes or completion):

  • Conker
  • Berri
  • Gregg the Grim Reaper
  • Weasel variants (Sniper, Grunt, Thermite)
  • Tediz (multiple classes)
  • Cavemen (Uga Buga chapter enemies)
  • Zombies (Spooky chapter)
  • Sky Jockey / SHC soldiers

Raptor Mode: Unlock by completing the Deathmatch circuit across all maps at least once. One player controls a Raptor using the C-buttons for special attacks; the remaining players try to survive.

Infinite Lives & Health Tricks

Conker’s Bad Fur Day does not use a traditional lives system — instead, continuing costs cash (Squirrels ($10 each)). Keeping your cash reserves high is functionally equivalent to infinite lives.

Cash farming — Windy chapter exploit:

  1. Enter the Windy hub area
  2. Locate the dung beetles rolling dung balls near the windmill
  3. Each dung beetle drops cash when defeated
  4. Exit to main barn, re-enter — enemies respawn
  5. Repeat for as much cash as needed before difficult sections

Honey mechanic: Conker’s health is represented by a honey bar. Chocolate and other pickups restore it, but the most reliable infinite health setup is the anti-gravity chocolate in the Bat’s Tower chapter — stock up before the Great Mighty Poo boss fight.

Safe room trick: On several chapters, returning to a chapter entry point (the small alcoves or doorways) fully resets nearby enemy spawns without resetting your cash. Use this before boss fights to farm health items.

The Censorship Toggle (Regional): The North American version mutes several dialogue lines that appear in full in the PAL (European) release. There is no in-game code to restore censored audio on NTSC cartridges — PAL is the definitive uncensored release.

Developer Easter Eggs & Hidden Messages

The Rare Emblem: In the Windy chapter, look directly up at the center of the windmill blades when standing below them. For a single rotation frame, a Rare logo is embedded in the blade texture — only visible at specific angles.

Perfect Dark reference: The SHC soldiers in It’s War carry weapons visually modeled after guns from Rare’s Perfect Dark. The laser sight behavior is a direct mechanical reference to the FarSight XR-20.

Saving Private Ryan parody: The It’s War chapter’s opening beach assault is a shot-for-shot parody of the Normandy landing sequence. The camera angle, barrel roll intro, and first-wave casualties mirror the film directly. The Tediz are deliberately designed as Nazi analogs.

Matrix sequence: During the Rock Solid nightclub segment, Conker performs a slow-motion bullet-dodge. The camera rotates 360 degrees — a direct parody of the “bullet time” sequence from The Matrix (1999), two years after that film’s release.

Alien abduction: In the Barn Boys sub-chapter, a cow in the field is periodically lifted by a beam of light and vanishes. This happens on a fixed timer and has no gameplay effect — it’s a purely ambient reference to UFO abduction tropes. Wait roughly 90 seconds without moving to witness it.

Squirrel cameo: An early prototype of Conker appeared in the Diddy Kong Racing character roster (1997). Several textures in Conker’s Bad Fur Day contain unused early-build squirrel sprites from that era, visible only in hex editors or texture-ripping tools.

Great Mighty Poo’s opera: The boss fight against the Great Mighty Poo is a full operatic musical number. The lyrics were composed by Robin Beanland and Chris Seavor (the game’s director, who also voiced Conker). The score is written in a genuine operatic key signature — it’s not parody composition, it’s a real aria deliberately performed badly for comic effect.

Beneficial Glitches & Speedrun Exploits

Out-of-bounds skip — Bat’s Tower elevator: At the elevator in Bat’s Tower, position Conker in the far-left corner of the platform and hold Left + C-Down as the elevator rises. At the correct floor transition, Conker clips through the wall and lands on an invisible collision mesh above the normal geometry, skipping the top-floor trigger. Reload zone by pressing Start to warp to the next scripted point.

Dung Defender turret lock: During the turret defense sequence in It’s War, enemies approach from fixed spawn vectors. Aim the turret at bearing roughly 10 o’clock from center and hold fire — this single angle covers three of the five spawn paths. Combined with occasional sweeps to 2 o’clock, it’s possible to complete the sequence without moving the reticle more than 30 degrees total.

Sloprano frame-perfect dialogue skip: During the Great Mighty Poo boss fight, pressing B on frame 1 of the toilet paper cutscene interrupts the singing cycle early, forcing the boss into phase two without the full animated intro. Requires frame-perfect timing; easier on emulator with frame advance.

Cash duplication (early copies): In v1.0 cartridges (identifiable by the absence of a revision number on the cart label), dropping cash near a specific collision edge in the Heist chapter entrance causes the cash bag to duplicate. Walk off the edge and grab the drop — both the original and the copy register. Patched in later pressings.

Infinite Anvil skip — Bats Tower: The anvil-switching puzzle on level three of Bat’s Tower can be bypassed by ground-pounding (Z in midair) onto a specific floor tile while facing north. The collision flags treat the next door as already-triggered. Saves approximately 4 minutes in full-game runs.
