How do I use a cheat name in Cookie Clicker?
Summary
Q.How do I use a cheat name in Cookie Clicker?
A.Append the keyword saysopensesame to your bakery name (e.g., "MyBakery saysopensesame") to enable Cookie Clicker’s hidden developer (OpenSesame) panel in the web build; on Steam use the console command Game.OpenSesame(). Always export your save first because this flags your run as “cheated” and can affect achievements.

To use a cheat name, click your bakery’s name and change it so it ends with saysopensesame (for example: “MyBakery saysopensesame”). That exact text (case-sensitive) causes a red “dev tools” / OpenSesame button to appear; click that to open the debug panel and access one-click cheats. If the name trick doesn’t work (notably on Steam or some other builds), open the browser/console and run Game.OpenSesame(); instead. step-by-step fan guide and a detailed OpenSesame reference explain both methods. (Web builds normally accept the name trick; Steam often requires the console.)
What the panel does and precautions: OpenSesame exposes options to add cookies, spawn Golden Cookies, unlock upgrades/achievements, change game speed and other debug toggles. Because it’s a debug tool it sets the “cheated” flag (for example, the “Cheated cookies taste awful” shadow) and can disable Steam achievements — so export your save first via Options > Export Save and test on a separate save.
