The Turbo-Freezer, made by the German Bernhard Engl, is a small circuit board that plugs into the PBI slot of your Atari XL (There was also a XE version of the freezer). It allows you to stop every program by pressing the red button on the Freezer. You could then save the current execution state to (ram)disk and reload it at a later time to continue playing. It has also has a monitor/disassembler which allowed you to change the current memory contents and then continue the program's execution. By changing the right memory locations, you could alter games so that you have for example unlimited lives.

One this page you will find many Freezer codes I've discovered. Also in the list are cheat codes already hidden in the game.
How it works
The Freezer codes must be entered in the debugger of the Turbo-Freezer. The
game must be stopped, the codes be entered and then the game can be resumed.
Some code must be entered before you play while others must be entered while you
are playing.
The codes published here are in the Turbo-Freezer format. For example:
CC234<FF,EA,03
C25<34
Means: Change the contents of address $C234 to $FF, address $C235 to $EA,
address $C236 to $03 and address $25 to $34.
With this information you can use these codes also if you have another kind
of freezer or emulator with debugger capabilities. For example, the same in the
monitor window of the Atari800Win PLus 3.1 emulator is:
C C234 FF EA 03
C C25 34
The code to disable collision detection ($D01D) won't work in Atari800Win. Use the disable collision detection of the emulator instead.
If you have other cheats or Freezer code, please e-mail them to me and I will
add them to the list.
