Backing Up Game

Most devices have a built in back-up and restore mechanism for game progress, which can be used if a game has been deleted and re-installed or when transferring a game between devices. This built in system should be used where possible, as accessing game files to do an external back-up is a breach of the games Terms of Use.

However, the internal backing up of game progress does not protect against game crashes, does not make multiple backups, and cannot be used to transfer games across platforms. The system has also been known to fail. As a result, players may choose to use an external system for backing up their game progress and restoring their game.

Important: The Secret Society Wiki does not endorse the use of external programs to back up the game, and takes no responsibility for any problems encountered when doing so. Players who choose to breach the Terms of Use of the game, do so at their own risk and should be aware that accessing game files could potentially damage their games and their devices. This is particularly important for players who need to alter the devices firmware in order to access root directories. It is recommended that players considering such methods read up on device specific information online before using an external method to back up their game in order to be fully confident in what they are doing and how it will affect their device. The Secret Society Wiki cannot provide technical support for devices themselves.
