Making an invisible object visible is generally easy — just start with its renderer disabled and then enable it for example.

GetComponent<Renderer>().enabled = true;

(This may vary slightly for e.g. a sprite.)

For the second part, assuming you mean something like a cheat code where the game is accepting normal control input without anything like an input field, but pressing a specific combination of keys will activate a secret function, I think something like this should work:

string cheatCode = “magiceye”;
int index=0;

void Update() 
{
    foreach(char c in Input.inputString) {
        if( c == cheatCode[index] )
            index++;
        else
            index=0; // Reset if a wrong key is typed

        if( index == cheatCode.Length ) {
            RevealInvisibleObject(); // Full cheat code was entered uninterrupted
            index=0;
        }
    }
}
