ProtectMyGame is a Windows suite for Unity 3D developers seeking to deter cracking, cheating, and reverse engineering. Unity Obfuscator works inside the Unity Editor, obfuscating C# scripts during compilation. Developers can select methods to protect while leaving public APIs and moddable systems readable, including anti-cheat, licensing, and core logic. Code Protector encrypts executables with compression and anti-tampering protection. Resource Packer packages up to 2GB, with automatic extraction and ZIP64 support. The free plan is listed at free and allows five protected files; Code Protector and Resource Packer each allow five files up to 200MB, available for 24 hours. Premium is billed monthly; the page displays 9.99€ beside 14.99€ with a discount label. It lists unlimited files, all tools, a custom API key, and Unity 3D exclusive compatibility.

Themida is Windows software that protects applications against advanced reverse engineering and cracking. Its SecureEngine technology combines anti-debugger, anti-disassembly, anti-tracing, anti-breakpoint, and anti-memory-patching techniques. Code protection options include virtualization, encryption, mutation, metamorphic scrambling, and random garbage-code insertion. It protects native 32-bit and 64-bit EXE files and dynamic libraries in DLL, OCX, and BPL formats. XBundler can embed DLLs and data files, while custom DLL plugins can be embedded in the protected binary. Integration is available through SDK communication with the protection layer and command-line support. Developers can customize dialog text and icons shown by protected applications. A demo is available for evaluation, but demo versions cannot be registered and have reduced protections, including light virtualization, no string encryption, and a demo splash screen. Licenses are perpetual. Developer License costs €249 as a one-time purchase; Company License costs €499 as a one-time purchase. Renewal plans cost 79.00 EUR or €159 a year for existing customers.
