The History of Sammich Scripts (ZantomatoAHK / Zantomato)

Sammich Scripts was a long running name in Old School AHK, launched in 2016 as ZantomatoAHK on gaming forums, later hit by a 2017 source code leak and a subsequent “free release” era, then broadened into mobile emulator scripts around 2019, with a follow up Youtube interview widely considered to be the trigger for the mobile ban wave. In July 2026 the owner closed the business indefinitely after receiving legal correspondence to cease operations.

In early July 2026, Sammich Scripts went offline. Below is his Discord announcement.

As some of you may have noticed, the website has been taken offline.

I have recently received legal correspondence relating to the business. While I obtain independent legal advice and consider the appropriate response, I have decided to temporarily suspend operations.

In a follow-up Discord announcement, Sammich confirmed the closure is permanent

Hey @everyone,

After a lot of thought, I've made the difficult decision to close the business indefinitely.

This wasn't an easy decision to make. For more than ten years, this community has been a huge part of my life, and I know many of you have been here for a large part of that journey. Whether you've supported me by purchasing a script, reporting bugs, suggesting improvements, helping other members, or simply being part of the community, I genuinely can't thank you enough.

What we built together over the years is something I'll always be grateful for.

As difficult as it is to say goodbye to this chapter of my life, I think it's time for me to move in a different direction.

Over the past few weeks I've been working on something new, and I'm excited to finally share it with you soon. I'll explain why I've made this decision, and what I plan to do next.

I know this probably isn't the update many of you were expecting, but I hope some of you will stick around for what's next.

Thank you all for your support over the years. It has genuinely meant more to me than I can put into words.

What to use and alternatives

With Sammich offline, many users will either stop using scripts or attempt to find alternatives, however many alternative providers have also been shut down citing similar legal correspondence.

Others are beginning to write their own AHK scripts, however many give up realising how complex and time consuming it is to write a script from scratch. A good starting point is the free AHK section on Old School Scripts, which focuses on learning to write scripts yourself with a guided tutorial Learn to write your own AHK
