Puzzling Places - BackupS

Puzzle Files

If you’d like to add, remove, or backup the puzzles you have downloaded for Puzzling Places, you can find the puzzle files in

• Quest\Internal shared storage\Android\obb\com.RealitiesIO.puzzlingPlacesBeta

Every puzzle is contained in its own .OBB file. This file contains the puzzle, the reference photos, information about the environment, sounds, and the menu thumbnail image.

File names: the naming of the puzzles files are in this structure: main.XX.com.RealitiesIO.puzzlingPlacesPatreon.obb. The XX refers to the puzzle number which is in consecutive order to when the puzzles were released. For example, the puzzle “Christmas Special 2020: Gingerbread House - #31” file would be named main.31.com.RealitiesIO.puzzlingPlacesPatreon.obb. You can refer to Patreon posts’ titles for all the puzzle numbers.

Since March of 2021 with puzzle #44 Buddha Statue, we introduced both 100 and 200 piece puzzles. As a result, we’ve added the number of pieces in the file names. So for the #44 Buddha Statue puzzles, the file names are main.44100.com.RealitiesIO.puzzlingPlacesPatreon.obb and main.44200.com.RealitiesIO.puzzlingPlacesPatreon.obb referring to the number of pieces in the puzzle.

SaveGame Files

Note: Removing or redownloading a puzzle does not delete or overwrite the savegame file of a puzzle. However, backing up savegames would be helpful in situations where you need to uninstall and reinstall the Puzzling Places app and would like to keep the progress of your puzzles intact.
