Riven [cheats]
Gate Room
To get to Gehn's world, you must be able to solve the Gate Room puzzlefirst. To solve this hard puzzle you first must click 4 times on thebutton in front of the gate room. Then go to the locked gate by going left when you are looking at the bridge. Even though the gate is locked, you can get past it by going under it. Go forward and you will see the gate room and another passage area. When you get to the switch, turn it on and turn around. Go forward until you see a lever and another button. First pull down the lever then press the button 2 times. Go forward to the other passage and do the same thing again. Go forward to the next passage and press the button 2 times again. This time when you press the button 2 times, the gate is open and you can get to the fire marble dome.
Hidden faces
At the start of the game, leave Temple Island and then return. Go to where you started. Next, go to the bottom of the staircase and look down to the right. Two faces are in the top-left. To find the other three, rotate the Gate Room (rotating room) until you can enter from the passage under the gate. Go under the gate, and immediately after you do that, on the right side of the screen, you will see three faces. You will only see them if you can enter the room from the place you are in.
For more hidden faces, step outside the cage where you start the game. Turn left, and look up. One face is just to the left of lower center, hidden in the rocks. The other is in the lower right corner.
More hidden faces can be seen on Temple Island, after going under the chained wood gate. The passage to Gateway room at other end must be open. Look along the right side of the screen. The three children's faces are Rand Miller's daughters.
Lights on
Go to Temple Island, the island you started from. Go to the room with the Whark statues and the temple itself. Make it so you are looking at the room from the exit (where the Maglav is found) There is a hidden switch in the left side, on one of the pillars. Press it.
Wire-frame detail
Go to where you make the 'sub' descend into the water next to the village by the lagoon. Go three or four screens toward the village (until you are looking down a ladder). Then, turn right. You should see a wire-frame view of the lagoon.
Silly Putty
Go to the underwater viewing room on Plateau Island. Sit in the chair and hit the button to face the window. Pull the left hand lever and then look down at the view screen (the one used to spy on Catherine). Finally, click on the small round, brown bolt just off to the right of the view screen to view the Easter Egg movie.
Singing Gehn
Go to Ghen's 233rd world (the one you go to using the Fire-Marble Domes). Go to his bedroom and face the wall with the red tapestry and the star on it. Click on the D'ni symbol for 5 in the exact center of the star to see the Easter Egg movie.
Sky High
While you are on Jungle Island, go into the jungle. Take the elevator up to the 'second' floor of the jungle and start walking up towards the control throne past the dome. Up about the middle of the stairs leading to the control throne, turn around and face the dome. To your left, down on the path underneath, you can see some lights by the side of the road. Click on the lamp farthest away from the dome to see the last Easter Egg.
Gehn's face
After you break the lens at the end of the game, look closely at Atrus. For a brief moment a face will appear. This also happens at the start of Riven, when Atrus holds up the Linking book to Riven. This was intentional, so that it felt like Gehn was watching you from the very beginning.
Easter Eggs
Use the following steps to activate the Easter Eggs in the game. Note: Click the places just once. You will know if you have done so when the cursor disappears for a second.
At the start of the game, exit your cage, go towards the stairs, turn right and look over the cliff. Click on the unconscious guy.
Go to Boiler Island. Enter Gehn's lab, find the little chest of drawers where Gehn keeps bird's eggs. Click on the little orange one.
Solve the Animal Stone puzzle on Jungle Island. Go to the Moiety Age and in your prison, click on the little bowl on the table.
On Jungle Island, go to the submarine. Travel in it to the place with the five switches. Look out of the window there and you will see the sub, back on the cliff. Click on it.
Go to Survey Island by taking the Maglev from Boiler Island. Note: You might have to turn the Maglev around and then get out. Go to the room with a long handle. Pull it, and a lift will appear from the floor. Do not go into the lift, but from where you are, click on the little star on the top of the lift.
Finally, take the Maglev from Jungle Island to Temple Island, or travel there by linking book. When you are next to the blue button near the Maglev station, turn left. You will see a triangle of light. If you look very closely, you will see the letters RAWA, the nickname of one of the Riven programmers, Richard A. Watson. Click on the letters to activate the remaining Easter Eggs in the game, as follows
