Big Chest Cheat Help

Big Chest cannot be spawned by naming an animal or your character. The naming cheat only reads plain numeric item codes, and this item's code is [(BC)BigChest] — inside a name the game ignores it completely, with no error and no item.

Spawn Using the Chat Cheat

Enable chat cheats on your save to get Big Chest, then open the in-game chat. That unlocks the /debug commands built into Stardew Valley 1.6.9 — no mods required.

Run /debug iq ALL_ITEMS (BC) to open the item browser for this type, then left-click Big Chest to drop it straight into your backpack.
