Where Are Tavern Talk Save Files Located?
Tavern Talk keeps runs in Saves\SaveData under AppData\LocalLow\Gentle Troll Entertainment GmbH\Tavern Talk on Windows, mirrored in Proton for Linux.
Last updated
Tavern Talk stores runs in a Saves SaveData tree under its Gentle Troll folder in LocalLow. The layout is flat enough that whole folder copies serve as complete backups. Linux runs the same tree inside the Proton prefix.
Slot readability is the known weakness. Saves carry no custom names or pictures, only act and chapter labels, which frustrates frequent savers. External notes remain the practical workaround until the game improves slot display.

Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Tavern Talk?
Copy the whole Tavern Talk folder with the game closed, since runs plus settings travel together. Email zips to support when reporting bugs, as the devs request exactly this. Proton copies mirror the same tree.
Can I label Tavern Talk save slots?
No. Slot names show act and chapter only with no rename, notes, or thumbnails, so track runs externally. The review community tracks this with sticky notes. Pick slots by recency when unsure.
