Level up as you learn how to: -Scan and modify memory with Cheat Engine -Explore program structure and execution flow with OllyDbg -Log processes and pinpoint useful data files with Process Monitor -Manipulate control flow through NOPing, hooking, and more -Locate and dissect common game memory structures You'll even discover the secrets behind common game bots, including: -Extrasensory perception hacks, such as wallhacks and heads-up displays -Responsive hacks, such as autohealers and combo bots -Bots with artificial intelligence, such as cave walkers and automatic looters Game hacking might seem like black magic, but it doesn't have to be.

" Game Hacking contains more than just interesting material; it contains an education. Budding programmers and game designers will gain critical insights. Perhaps, for someone with the predisposition and the will to develop their skills, this book could even kick-start a new career." --Josh Townsend, IT Security " Game Hacking makes for both a great read straight through or as a desk reference when reversing games or abusing Windows process memory.
