Have you ever read the book Off to be the Wizard? It’s about a dude who accidentally stumbles upon reality’s source code and figures out how to modify it, so he goes back to medieval times to convince everyone he’s a wizard. The reason I bring that up is to reassure you that you are not the only one who would abuse their powers if granted the ability to futz with reality with a command line. If you want a taste of that kind of power, you can get a rough approximation in House Party. Here’s how to use console commands in House Party.

House Party is kinda like an open-ended choose-your-own adventure book. There are lots of different sub-stories and potential interactions you can stumble upon, and if it’s the first time you’re playing the game, you should endeavor to uncover them on your own. If, however, you’ve played the game a lot already and want to skip a few things to get to the new bits, you can influence the world through the Unity developer console. Just a warning: using console commands will disable achievements for the duration of your current run, so you’ll need to start a new game to re-enable them.

How to Use Console Commands in House Party

To activate the developer console, simply press the “`” key on your keyboard. It’s the key right next to the “1” key if you’ve never seen it before. This’ll drop the console down from the top, presenting you with a command line you can type in. You can get a full list of all the commands in the game by typing “help” and pressing Enter.
