Stick around to find out how to Open Sesame in Cookie Clicker as well as how to get unique control and developer panels, all topped with updated cheats and codes for you to try out in the game.
How Do You Open Inspect In Cookie Clicker?
The Open Sesame panel is a unique feature of the game, seen as the control panel. It can be opened via a console command or by changing the name of the bakery.
But, players will first need to get the console to pop up before they can continue. Try out the methods below to bring up the source inspector in order to access the console in Cookie Clicker, depending on your platform:
| Google Chrome | Press Ctrl+⇧ Shift+J (Windows) & ⌘+⌥ Option+J (Mac Os). |
| Edge | Press F12 |
| Firefox | Press Ctrl+⇧ Shift+K (Windows) & Ctrl+⌥ Option+K (Mac Os). |

How Do You Open Sesame In Cookie Clicker?
At the time of writing, there are 2 main ways to access the Open Sesame control panel in Cookie Clicker from the console, namely:
- Players can open the console using the function: Game.OpenSesame();
- Players can also add ‘saysopensesame’ to the end of their bakery’s name. As an example, “Fiction’s Bakery” becomes “Fiction saysopensesame’s Bakery”, or “Fictionsaysopensesame’s Bakery”.
There are a few cases where this function will not actually work due to in-game limitations, however – specifically if adding this phrase to the end of the player’s bakery name exceeds the character limit. If this is the case, then the game will simply cut off the end of the phrase that cannot fit into the character limit, and the command will not work.
Changing the player’s name afterward will not close the console unless the player refreshes the page. So, the entire process is something to consider at the beginning of the game when you create your bakery.

Gaining access to the Open Sesame control panel in Cookie Clicker will enable a bunch of features, which ultimately change the entire gameplay experience compared to the classic Cookie Clicker.
Below are some examples of what the Open Sesame control panel can do in the game, according to the Cookie Clicker Wiki:
“The panel has many features, such as spawning Golden Cookies with whatever power you want. It also includes features such as debug Upgrades, that do various things from making golden cookies spawn rapidly to setting cookie production to 0. Also holding “CTRL” on your keyboard while clicking a Wrinkler will toggle it between its shiny and normal state.”
There are some specific Debug upgrades that players can access and alter with the Open Sesame tab, described as follows:
| Debug Upgrade | Description |
