Thank you for that @Nor_Treblig :pray:

Any idea how to pull out a Save Game from an iOS device (iPhone)

I’ve played much longer and further on the iPhone than I have on the Mac now.

Savegames are theoretically cross-platform compatible but I don’t have any experience with iOS versions of TWP or Apple products at all.

App data seems to be stored in /var/mobile/Applications/ or /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/ in more recent iOS versions.

You will find a lot of spam posts when searching for tools to access iOS files, but this answer seems more legit:


They make it sound like you can access 3rd party app data without jailbreaking the phone, which is good news.

The mentioned desktop app can operate on files on the device but also view and access iTunes backups.

Thanks again @Nor_Treblig

The location is where I will look for the save games.

The apps on the Mac so far have not allowed me to view the contents of the iOS package. Will keep trying and post my results here. Might even try using an old Windows application that allows me to browse a non-jailbroken iPhone.

Any update on how to restore saved games from one iOS to another iOS device (IPhone to another iPhone)?

Dont want to lose all the progress on my old phone just because I upgraded the phone.

The save game data is definitely sitting on the old iPhone. Just need to bring it here.

Any Game Centre it iCloud options to do this yet?

I just bought this game today on my iphone/ ipad and just figured that there is still no icould sync…
Like what Creative242 said, I have ‘Planescape: torment’ on my iphone and ipad and there is a function to share the saved file over Airdrop between different ios devices. I saw dev ‘Ron’ said that he is looking into putting icloud sync service in 2017 and I wonder if he is still working on it.

There is a way legit to export savegame from IOS/IPAD to other platforms without jailbreak:

  1. Make a device backup on your computer
  2. Use iExplorer to access in the backup
  3. Go to backup explorer and follow app -> com.terribletoybox.thimbleweedparkios -> Library -> Application Support -> Terrible Toybox -> Thimbleweed Park as the example below:

example

  1. Export all the files inside the folder on your desktop ( or other location you prefer)
  2. Copy all the files previously exported to your preferred device on following folders:

Mac:
~/Library/Application Support/Terrible Toybox/Thimbleweed Park

Mac App Store:
~Library/Containers/com.terribletoybox.thimbleweedpark/Data/Library/Application Support/Terrible Toybox/Thimbleweed Park

Windows:
%APPDATA%\Terrible Toybox\Thimbleweed Park\

Linux:
~/.local/share/Terrible Toybox/Thimbleweed Park

That’s all, i hope this trick can help someone :wink:
