Where Are Botanicula Save Files Located?
Botanicula saves on Windows, macOS and Linux (BotaniculaSaves) plus Steam Cloud behavior.
Last updated
Botanicula keeps saves plus settings.txt in a BotaniculaSaves folder. Windows and Linux use Documents, Mac uses Application Support under Amanita Design.
Steam Cloud syncs most installs and OneDrive can mirror Documents as well. Copy the whole folder with the game closed. The 24 fps cap never affects saves.
Where Botanicula stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\BotaniculaSaves\

~/Library/Application Support/Amanita Design/Botanicula/
Mac save home with settings.txt beside saves. Use Go to Folder in Finder. Same Cloud rules as Windows.
~/Documents/BotaniculaSaves/
Linux save home (does not follow XDG). Proton fork uses compatdata/207690 for the Windows tree instead on Steam Deck setups. Copy with the game closed.
