GuidedHacking.com Reviews 195

The content on Guided Hacking has personally helped me with many certifications, as it’s concise and straight to the point. Rake is a super kind person once you get to know him. As long as you read the rules and follow them, you’ll get your money’s worth. Anyone complaining about loss of service or being banned did so because they violated the rules.

I recently bought a GH subscription, and honestly the content is so well organized, spot on, and top notch!

there's so many things to choose from once you buy a subscription. It really helps that they have a wide selection of topics because you never know what kind of things your current project might throw at you. It's like one big wiki.

Guidedhacking is great, it was a total breath of fresh air for me I tried a few other forums and some discord servers and found the community lacking. I come from a cybersecurity background and I was expecting something different I guess. But after buying a subscription on GH and getting access to all their content I know this is what I was looking for all along.

To be fair, I don't get all the criticism that Guided Hacking gets. They have hundreds of free tutorials on YouTube, which one can start with if they aren't comfortable with investing money yet. I felt the same way when I started. After some point, I decided to invest some money and it was completely worth it.

So if you are a beginner, start with the basic YouTube videos they offer. And once you feel stuck or feel like leveling up further, you can purchase a subscription to get access to all of their content that covers various game hacking and reverse engineering topics.

After I found GuidedHacking, I realized I wanted to be a software developer and a reverse engineer. The content is really high quality, everything was organized, and easy to access.

Just want people to know that the website is 100% worth it, Wish they would bring back the trump tier, or life time, anyone that's got a neg review on this 9x out of 10 are butt hurt because they got caught stealing or trying to steal.

I had a subscription with GuidedHacking and used the site normally while it was active. After the subscription expired, I was no longer able to access content. I logged out and tried viewing publicly available material – shortly after, I was banned.

About 1–2 years later, I noticed that the ban seemed to have been lifted. I contacted support to ask if it was safe to subscribe again, but received no response and got banned again.

It seems they already have enough paying customers. Treating the community like this is really disappointing. It’s about time they faced some real competition.

Edit 06/11/2025:
A few days after this review, the ban was lifted again. I then wanted to take out a 2-year subscription. I read in the terms and conditions (which, by the way, were only displayed after payment) that if you have been banned once, you will be banned again.
I then wrote to the support that I did not accept the terms and conditions and demanded a refund. I received the money immediately. It went without a hitch.

I am currently banned again on the website.

Guided hacking is without a doubt the best website to learn game hacking. I've been following the game hacking bible, one of the courses that they sell, and I've been very impressed with the quality of the content. Unlike other websites where the goal is to cheat in video games the goal of guided hacking is academic in nature. If you're going to university to get a degree in cyber security or low level programming then I recommend you try guided hacking. Guided hacking is super affordable it literally costs the same as a Starbucks coffee per month! If you're on the fence and not sure if you should subscribe, head to YouTube and check out some of their content!

Outdated content

Avoid GuidedHacking!

This guy persists on getting negative reviews taken down if possible (What the hell TrustPilot)?

My experience with GuidedHacking.com was a nightmare. The owner is a paranoid person who will do anything to silence criticism and protect his shady operation. I paid $70 for a subscription, only to be banned without any valid reason, i haven't been scraping the website, i trash talked on it on a server discord and then accuses me to leak the files, that wasn't my intention originally, he called for it , he doesn't have any respect toward his community or to manage a forum, if we can have a mature talk he knows how to contact me.

I downloaded 3 files then said something on a discord server that he was "monitoring" and he figured the newest member would have been me, and banned me for the trash talk, i wasn't posting or leaking a thing.

The owner constantly calls people "skids" and offers no real help to anyone genuinely trying to learn.

To make matters worse, most of the content on the site is actually public resources. The owner pays creators for exclusivity and manipulates them into keeping certain tools exclusive to GuidedHacking. It's just a money grab, and you’re better off contacting the creators directly to buy the tools from them if possible.

The owner also abuses cease and desist emails, accusing members of scraping and rehosting content when all they’ve done is use the site and download files. This is just a scare tactic to take down any negative feedback about GuidedHacking.

"Charge 7 dollar per month" Yet you force people to pay yearly

If you didn't force people to pay yearly to access the content maybe there wouldn't be such a high amount of negative rumors about GH, and if you ban, you should as well refund !

Long term subscriber here,

I've been in the (game-/software-) engineering field for quite a few years now. A couple years back, I took a big interest in game hacking and reverse engineering. And all i can say is, guidedhacking is awesome. They've got a ton of free resources for people to look up on their YT channel, so if you want to get into game hacking, I would first take a glance at it. However, if you're serious about game hacking/reverse engineering, it is totally worth the price and I would definitely recommend you to try guidedhacking. But before buying I would reconsider if you got what it takes to actually go through with it. Because if you're not a self-learner and have some time to spear, this is definitely gonna be a waste of money, so be warned. After buying my first 6 month sub, i have now upgraded to the quantum tier (2 years) and I didn't regret it at any point. It's amazing how much you can learn and how many great resources and tools are shared on guidedhacking. Keep up the great work. Who knows, maybe in a few years I'll be able to produce some content like this too. I'm looking forward to seeing where this project is headed.

I'm using Guided Hacking to learn about anti-cheat and hypervisors. I had seen the tutorials in the past, so my initial concern was that the content might be outdated. I was wrong, but surprisingly, much of the older content is frequently updated. Many of the tutorials have been rewritten from scratch.

The forum is packed with knowledge about reverse engineering and game hacking. It takes a bit of time to navigate and understand where to find the content, but I think it’s worth it.

There is a lot to learn. A lot of content and is exactly what I've been looking for. If you are motivated enough it can boost your journey. :)

I bought a subscription that saved me a lot of time that I would waste on online video searching on other websites. Rake does an awesome job constantly putting out interesting tutorials.

I really like step-by-step guides for beginners called the guided hacking bible.

I started using this site a couple of years ago, and even bought some kind of status to support the site.
I used it only for reading articles and watching lessons.
A few months later problems began.
I am from Abkhazia and one day I could no longer access it because they blocked access to the site from many countries, including mine. I tried to log in via VPN and continued to use the site for a while.
Then my account was blocked for using VPN. My username is "fmn". I think this is incorrect and would like to hear a response from the site owner.

03.09.2024 still no response from site owner in two months, my acc is blocked, and i can't use resourse that i paid for.

I think THEY ARE SCUMMERS, don't buy or pay them a dime, after a payment THEY BLOCK YOUR ACCOUNT.

04.09.2024 They trying to delete my review instead answer me, such a funny scummers, all the positive reviews here are bought, stay away from them.

UPD. When I paid you there was no information about VPN. I paid you for the service, you denied access to it from my network without VPN for no reason, that's your problem, not mine.
Maybe you can write in your agreement that it is forbidden to breathe air, otherwise you will be banned for it, what do you think of my idea, Rake megamind?

UPD. You banned my ISP and my network FOR NO REASON and because of this, I used a VPN for read forum that I paid for and there is nothing illegal about it to access. And you deprived me of this.
I didn't use the VPN for anything illegal, i just want read forum and tutorials that i paid for.
Instead of making an exception to solve that problem, make this review to positive, and allowing me to read the forum from under a VPN, since my ISP is blocked, you banned my account.

UPD. I don't understand what are you talking about.
I repeat for you again, mature man:
I didn't use VPN until you blocked my whole country or my ISP (i don't know), after that i trying to use VPN and you blocked my account.
I'm tried to use VPN (just to read forum that i paid for) after you blocked my whole country (or my main network) for NO REASON.

IF YOU HADN'T BLOCKED MY COUNTRY, I wouldn't have used a VPN. Why did you block my country?

Unblock me and i will delete that review.
Allow me access forum to read tutorials that i paid for, from VPN, because i can't access without VPN, my country is blocked by cloudflare.

Can you make me a hacker

A unique place in the hacking scene, with frequent updates and a wide variety of topics covered. And of course, what I loved is that they cover modern games and technologies. It's easy to navigate and it has literally all hacking topics covered. Their famous GHB (Game Hacking Library) is what got me into game-hacking

I'm learning so much, there is so much content, if you are motivated enough it can boost your career!
I knew nothing before, and now I can code myself internal or external trainer on any game without anti-cheat! Plus I learned so much on reverse engineering, I can now understand basic assembly instruction, change them for my use and find the pointer that I need. I'm looking forward to reaching my goal, and it won't be possible without this platform, thank you Rake!

Ignore the bad reviews. If you are there to learn and are willing to put the time in and make your way through all the resources on the website there is no reason why you would not become an 1337 game hacker.

The key is to stay persistent and motivated.

People say Rake is rude, but he is not, it's tough love and he wants people to use the resources provided to educate themselves.

Quality tutorials and tools for hacking. I have been using their Unreal Dumper for almost half a year now and it's working great. Which helped my works a lot as there's not many great solutions for Unreal games. And there's also plenty of cheat engine tables free to learn from. They hired a lot of amazing people for their tutorials and contents. Even though they're generally a paid service, they do provide quality free tutorials as videos on Youtube. Which surprised me by how detailed they are step by step. It's very hard to see such dedication nowadays.
They seem to have other stuff about security too if you're interested. Meanwhile I'm just a normal guy trying to have fun with offline video games. Oh and they also have stuff for online multiplayer, it's fascinating to deal with those.
