The Flash version of Zuma's Revenge! is a stripped-down "demo version" for web users.
Debugging Info and Hidden Cheats#
Similar to Plants vs. Zombies, data.xml contains a commands element, the multiasset version instead requires cheatsEnabled to be passed to it. Unsurprisingly setting it to true, activates debug functions and hidden cheats in-game.
