I remember the cheat but not the exact game lol. Definitely Sega Mega Drive though.
ABRACADABRA (R for d-pad right, D for d-pad down).
Going by a Google search it could've been Vectorman or Ecco 2. Or both because I played both a lot back then.

San Andreas Max Health + $250k. Saved me in the warehouse mission in Las Venturas lol. I hope I'm getting this right:
R1, R2, L1, X, LEFT, DOWN, RIGHT, UP, LEFT, DOWN, RIGHT, UP
Just looked it up, I knew that one was etched into the folds in my brain.
Flying car cheat in San Andreas. I donβt know what the buttons are, by my muscle memory is so ingrained that if I start it I can usually get it after 1/2 attempts. Even if I havenβt touched the games in years.
I had San Andreas on PS2 as a kid, only played it on PC a little bit as an adult; but, the fact that you type the cheat codes on a keyboard means they kinda make words, so i forgot the PS2 ones and i remember some PC ones.

klapaucius - money cheat for Sims 1
BARACUDA for level select in Sonic 3D Blast.
Alternatively, CALLACAB for Vector Man.
the first 'cheat code' that came to mind here isn't for a game:
Select β’ Play β’ Select β’ 30 β’ Select
WE5T1
Triangle triangle square circle X L1 L1 down up
Spawns the Hydra in GTA SA
Skitchin
At the warning screen, B A Down A Start Start (Spells BADASS)
Activates cheat mode, and then you can use the password screen to input cheats. But the only one I used is MONEY which starts you with 10,000 dollars or something.

Doom had IDKFA that just basically gave you all the weapons and keys. I was a pretty young kid when that game was popular and all I wanted was all the guns.
Itβs not a code, per se, but the method to get unlimited money on SimCity for SNES is forever in my brain. (I didnβt always use it but sometimes, I just wanted to make a cool city and not do the tax and budget stuff.)
As others have already mentioned, IDKFA for Doom and didn't it work in Doom 2 as well?
I only ask because when ID Software released Heretic, a swords and sorcery style Doom game, I remember typing in IDKFA, expecting the same results. It was the Doom engine after all. Except typing in the classic code kills you instantly!
Another isn't strictly a cheat code. On the old 8bit computers the UK, you could enter some programming code to change the memory before loading in a game. (This is over simplified.)
Because of the altered memory, it would effect the game in some way. E.g. infinity health or lives.
I found a listing in a magazine which you could type in to help with the ZX Spectrum version of Batman: The Movie.
In this platform game, with the cheat, when a bad guy tried to climb a ladder, they would freeze.
This was very helpful and worked wonderfully all the way through the game. That was until you reached the very end whereupon the Joker was on a rope ladder attached to a helicopter.
The code interfered with the end of game boss in a way it wasn't expecting and the game would crash.
Thanks.

I wasn't particularly wowed by the gameplay of the sims 4, but I really enjoyed the building mode, especially with the freedom to put stuff exactly where I wanted, collision and autosnapping be damned.
