Bit Slicer vs Game Cheetah

Bit Slicer is a free, open-source game trainer for macOS that searches for and changes values such as scores, lives and ammunition. Its scanner handles integers, floating-point values, strings, byte arrays and pointers, and can narrow search results. Users can inspect and edit live memory in a hex-editor-style window, dump memory to disk and alter memory-protection attributes. Debugging tools include instruction-access watches, live disassembly, breakpoints, backtraces, register manipulation and stepping, as well as byte or assembled-instruction changes. The app can inject assembly code into a running process, and scripts can automate virtual-memory and debugger methods. Saved Slice documents can be shared. The project says it can run as a normal user rather than root. Version 1.9.2 is listed as the latest release. The current release requires macOS 11.5 or newer, although the freeware plan lists macOS 10.8 or later. Support is directed to the wiki and Discord, and is not available 24/7.

Game Cheetah is a desktop memory scanner and game trainer for finding, editing, and freezing values in running games. It can search integers, floating-point numbers, strings, UTF-16 strings, byte arrays, and unknown values, with workflows for narrowing results. Users can edit search results, freeze individual values or a complete result set, and inspect or change memory in a hex and ASCII view. The project describes offline single-player games, debugging, reverse engineering, modding, and educational work as intended uses, not online or multiplayer cheating. Cheat tables, address editing, and pointer scanning are experimental options, disabled by default and requiring an unsafe persistence setting. The maker warns that saved addresses or pointer chains can identify the wrong object after a restart, and that changing another process can cause crashes or unpredictable behavior. Game Cheetah supports Linux, Windows, and macOS. Release packages usually include Linux AppImage and .deb files, a Windows x64 ZIP, and a universal macOS .dmg. Linux process access may be restricted by operating-system settings such as Yama ptrace_scope.
