Cheat or Repeat

Have you ever played a game where following the rules is the very reason you fail? Welcome to Cheat or Repeat! This is a mind-bending puzzle game that breaks all conventional norms. It will trap you into an eternal cycle of failure, and the only way to get out of it is innovative thinking, or, in simple words, cheating.

How to play Cheat or Repeat

Breaking the circle and winning this game requires a different perspective.

Don't Trust What You See

Game text often lied. If it reads "Don't press this button," you'll probably smash it 90% of the time. If the game says "Go right," keep travelling left until you strike the wall. Be sceptical of all instructions.

Interacting with the Fourth Wall

Cheat or Repeat has a very thin game-UI boundary

Try clicking and dragging the health bar, pause menu, or level title letters using your mouse.

Many puzzles require you to retrieve a number from the score display to fill in a broken bridge.

Utilizing Glitches

The game is intentionally designed with simulated glitches. If you find your character half-stuck in a wall, don't restart immediately. Try to maneuver around it! Sometimes, intentionally jumping outside the map boundaries is the only way to the real escape.

Collecting Data

You'll have to repeat many times, but don't let it go to waste. Each time your character dies, pay attention to whether anything changes in the environment. There are levels that require you to die exactly 3 times in the same location for a secret bridge to appear from your debris.

Good luck passing the Cheat or Repeat test safely!
