Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Eastward saves?
Close the game and copy the full Pixpil Eastward folder elsewhere. Steam and GOG use nearby subfolders, so moving one SaveData alone can miss slots.
Where is game_settings for Eastward?
One level above SaveData in the same Pixpil Eastward folder. It holds resolution and volume choices. Delete it to reset options while keeping chapter progress.
