Cheat Happens launched on January 1, 2001, and now, 25 years later, is still going stronger than ever and remains the gold standard for premium PC and Steam Deck trainers. This is going to be an exciting year as we'll see a brand-new website, Aurora 3.0 and perhaps a couple of surprises that you'll never see coming. We're excited and you should be too. Let's go.

Late last year Valve announced several new pieces of hardware. This is your chance to not only lock in on two of them, but also take home a fan favorite. Our STEAM SUPER BUNDLE consists of the unreleased STEAM MACHINE and STEAM CONTROLLER (both pre-order) plus a STEAM DECK OLED. Each winner gets ALL THREE. There will be three (3) lucky winners when the contest concludes on February 15. Lock in your entries and then earn a bonus 100 entries by participating in (and winning) one of the flash giveaways on our Discord Server occurring at random until the giveaway date. In addition to extra entries, also grab free RC, wheel spins, gift cards and other surprises.
