UPDATE: The autosave issues listed below are now fixed. New playthroughs of those sections will be clean. For those who have been bugged already, refer to the save list below to help you get through if you don't want to replay the day. Thanks for your patience! Enjoy!
UPDATE 7/29: Since we have default save directories listed here, I'm also adding the mobile ones here.
Android: Android/data/com.postudios.gk1/files
iOS: in iTunes in Apps section look in the Files panel for GK1 and select it to see list of files including saves
Hi, all,
Wayne from QA here to give you all a heads up on some issues to be aware of on our autosave in Gabriel Knight 20th Anniversary.
We have received and looked into the reports of missing items and not being able to end days.
We have found the cause of it and are working towards implementing fixes for these instances.
Basically, this is a case of autosaving saving in the wrong place.
Some of the special events that happen on a scene entry would not be saved entirely by the current autosaves we have, so you can miss something if you rely on Continue to resume your game.
To handle them for now,
save manually after the events I've confirmed and am listing below.
That will ensure you have something to fall back on.
A patch will be forthcoming but at least this way you can avoid some pitfalls.
1. Day1 - Meeting Malia cutscene at Lake Pontchartrain
2. Day2 - Cazaunoux visit to Dixieland Drug Store
3. Day3 - Hartridge's voodoun lecture
4. Day3 - Meeting Malia at Gedde Tomb
5. Day5 - getting scale into ashtray
For those who have already been stuck, I have also included save files to skip you to the end of the day.
Day1 - use save 203, talk about Voodoo Research then choose Request Research and ask Grace to research Malia
Day2 - use save 211 and ask Grace to research Madame Cazaunoux
Day3 - use save 224, copy the marks on the tomb, and exit to map
Day5 - use save 248, exit to map
Default save directories are:
Steam PC - C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\(steamid)\262000\remote\gk1
DRM-free PC - C:\Users\(username)\AppData\LocalLow\Phoenix Online Studios\GK1
Steam Mac - Users/(macusername)/Library/Application Support/Steam/userdata/(steamid)/262000/remote/unity.phoenix online studios.gk1
DRM-free Mac - Users/(macusername)/Library/Cache/Phoenix Online Studios/GK1
For Steam, rule of thumb to ensure Steam recognizes your new saves:
1. Exit Steam.
2. Rename and renumber file(s) if needed, always renumbering higher than the highest in-game save's number.
3. Move save file(s) to Steam save folder.
4. Restart Steam.
Saves can also be found here for people who aren't registered on the forums:

We hope you enjoy the rest of the game!
