Trainers are programs made to modify behaviour of a computer game in order to allow cheating.
In the 1980s and 1990s, trainers were generally integrated straight into the actual game by cracking groups. When the game was first started, the trainer loaded first, asking the player if he/she wished to cheat. Then the code would proceed to the actual game. In the cracker group release lists and intros, trained games were marked with one or more plus signs after them, for example: "teh Mega Krew presents: Ms. Astro Chicken++".
Nowadays trainers also come as separately downloadable programs.
