Unlocks & secret modes

Banned from Equestria Cheats (1.5)

BFEqD has no typed password codes - its "cheats" are secret modes and gallery scenes you trigger with the right actions, form and timing. Here is everything for the final version 1.5.

Banned from Equestria secret modes

  • More Bullshit Mode. The post-game gallery of bonus and deleted cutscenes. It was added in 1.4 and expanded in 1.5, where it also gained the "Less Bullshit" and "Zero Bullshit" tiers. You reach it from the end screen once you have unlocked scenes.
  • Twilight's Experiment / Zero Bullshit Mode. The main secret mode. Learn Shield Breaker A from the library book, steal Trixie's book while she is still asleep, then return it to Twilight the next day. This opens the extra Mane-6 mini-games and the Rarity gallery scene. Clearing the game this way unlocks Zero Bullshit Mode, which lets you trigger scenes directly.

Banned from Equestria character unlocks

Most paths depend on your form (earth / unicorn / pegasus) and the time of day. Switch form by talking to Trixie during daytime.

TrixieLearn Shield Breaker A from the library book. As a unicorn at night, break her shield and click the blue symbol. Take her book for Twilight's Experiment.
ZecoraDrink from the stream at Fluttershy's cottage first (or you are poisoned), enter the Everfree Forest, solve the maze and open the closet.

Banned from Equestria gallery scenes

  • Goodbye Equestria (Pinkie): after her mini-game, return the next day and click the box that held the ball.
  • Remixing Time (Vinyl): click her window after her mini-game.
  • The Treehouse Adventures (CMC): click their treehouse door a second time after the first cutscene.
  • Shield Breaker B backup: buy a 3-bit muffin from Mrs. Cake and eat it from the status menu for an alternate route past Trixie's shield.

Banned from Equestria tips

  • Bank bits early: as an earth pony, buck trees until the meter passes 40 for about 40 bits a session. You need 50 for the train ticket.
  • Plan around the clock - Luna and the third-night group scene are locked to night 3.
  • If a character ignores you, you are probably in the wrong form or the wrong part of the day. Switch and come back.
