A Complete Guide to Save Files

Grim Realms saves the game automatically every midnight, and worse, it overwrites your save files!
This can be quite difficult for inexperienced players, and you may desire for a way to save your game and keep it in your pocket…

Fortunately, Grim Realms’ coding is simple and modular, allowing users to pick up and relocate save files as easy as a flash drive! You don’t even need basic computer knowledge to use my guide here, and once you know how, it will make your Grim Realms experience significantly more enjoyable because you’ll not only be able to make backup saves of your worlds, but you’ll also be able to share and exchange your worlds with other players via Discord! – https://discord.gg/
(At least until the developer simplifies this via the workshop)

Your worlds are saved in an overarching [Worlds] folder in the Grim Realms Game folder on your PC, and your [settlements] are stored in each individual [world]. You can pick up a world and transport it to a safer spot. And if you wish to include a world in your game, simply place it in the [Worlds] folder!

Here, I’ll walk you through downloading and putting my above Winter Fortress World into your game so you may play it! Simple as that!

First, let’s find the game file. To do this, copy and paste this pathway into Windows Search:

%userprofile%\appdata\local\GrimRealms

This will bring you right to where the game is stored in your computer. It should look something like this. You’ll see [languages] on the left, which is your user settings, [prefabs] in the middle, which is for if you’ve downloaded spawnable terrain from the Steam Workshop, and [Worlds] on the right, which is where your world data is stored. (the rest is a bunch of screenshot I’ve taken in game)

Our goal is to drop a world file into [Worlds]

Now, without exiting your file explorer, you’re going to want to download my World off of google Drive. Click the link in the first section of this guide, and download the .zip file.

Going back to your file explorer, open a new tab so you can have the Game Data Folder and your downloads side by side. To open a new tab is very similar to how you’d do it in Google Chrome.

Downloading this Google Drive file should put it in your file explorers’ downloads, seen here:

Go ahead and enter the .zip file by double clicking.

Think of the .zip like a suitcase, and inside is a sheaf of papers. That sheaf is my World. you’re simply going to click and drag the world file (my world is called Koih) out and back into your downloads so that it’s sitting outside of the .zip

So at this point, you should have this world you downloaded from me sitting out of the .zip file in your downloads. All we’ve gotta do now is move it into the game! It’s a simple drag and drop from the downloads, into the [Worlds] folder of the game data!

And just like that, you’re done!

The world will be in the game data and the game can read it, it will handle the rest!

When you open Grim Realms, and select load game, any worlds in that [World] folder will appear here and you can play them like you’d play a world you created yourself!

Likewise, if you want to share a file or create a backup of your save, just reach into [Worlds], do the ol’ CTRL + C on the world you want, and paste it anywhere you’d like(I prefer downloads). Then you can .zip it and send it like you’d send a picture! The Discord – [discord.gg]  is very active and the dev always appreciates people sharing their worlds in bug reports!

Downloading and sharing worlds will have no affect on the game, so you can rest easy if you’re no coding genius. You’re simply picking up and putting down world files!
