If such a thing is really desired, then instead of hashing, you might consider building the strings from a numeric input value at runtime.
The advantage is that as pointed out by @Philipp, it is somewhat pointless to try and hide codes in the executable if you can expect them being posted on the internet anyway. Hashed or not, the same word found on the internet and entered into the game will give the same hash and will work either way.
Except... except if someone else's code doesn't work for you. Which you can trivially do -- not 100% tamper-proof but reasonably hard to work around for the average user. Anything as simple as the "Online Elven name generator" will do (can be arbitrarily simple, really doesn't need much of a markov text gen engine, pulling 4-5 syllables from a random list is good enough).
Just generate a somewhat user-specific or machine-specific number, it doesn't even have to be perfectly unique or very tamper-resistant. Something that is likely different for most people, and unlikely to change regularly, e.g. the computer's network name, the MAC address, or the GUID of the system disk drive, whatever (the GPU serial number might be a very bad idea since users are likely to upgrade GPUs). Add to that the numeric code the unlock code refers to, and feed that into your word generator. But be prepared to answer support queries when players use two computers or change their network card (which is unusual, but not impossible). It might be a good plan to only generate the random ID once, and store it with the game's settings. That way, at least it doesn't break existing installations on the same machine if something changes.
Or, you might just use the game's serial number which is unique and will work if the user changes hardware (ironically, however, this might promote pirating since shared unlock codes work for pirated serials but not for legitimate customers!).
Note that preventing users from cheating is not necessarily a good thing. In an offline (i.e. non-competetive game) it's usually no problem if the user cheats and gets the codes from somewhere rather than from playing. He is only cheating himself. Who cares.
On the other hand, getting too much in their way if they really wish to cheat is a great opportunity for completely pissing off paying customers.
So... before you do something that way, think very thoroughly whether you really want that, and what you want. Quite possibly, having human readable strings (or trivially made "unreadable" with xor) is just good enough and indeed preferrable.
