It should work. That's how I tested if they fixed the issue where the game failed to download new "zones" or whatever was the bug a little while ago.
Someone uploaded their save file, I put it on my device and had their progress with all unlocks.

If you have everything unlocked, feel free to share your save file :D
The save file should be called "gameprogress.sav"

Searching the forum by that filename I actually managed to find a comment from you and in another thread

Yeah but it's been 3-4 years. I hope there isn't a version difference making the game think it's corrupted.

I remember having all the stars but not all unlocks sadly. I think some required gems and they were getting scarce so I didn't bother.

I don't think anything changed. Last year someone shared their save file in some thread when we were testing the bug that the game had about failing do download maps after the first area. I used someones save to get access to area 2 and 3.

So my game stopped giving out daily rewards and the timed rewards. Seems odd. The game works fine otherwise.

I ended up checking the game today and probably was gonna install but guess what... This app won't work with my device... :mad:

Why? Did they restrict some countries or phones? LCGO can be installed and many other better looking, heavier games. Y u do dis Devs...

Anyway, maybe later.

I think the playerbase is pretty much dead for this game, but I'll still try nonetheless :o

I've finished this game in the past but recently started a new game on my iPhone 13 and when I finally completed the jungle part, I couldn't access the desert. I did unlock it, Lara is standing on the map in the desert part, but whenever I try to start the first level it automatically starts loading the Thailand area again and Lara is just stuck on the map screen (desert area)

Any fixes for this? I'm not familiair with iPhones at all in general so any tips are greatly appreciated. (honestly worst decision in my life to go from Android to iPhone but that's another story)

I think the game is so old it won't work properly on new phones. It started like a couple years ago with the sounds messing up. I think it's only going to get worse. I think without an update for the game it will "die" soon. And I don't think there's a team anymore to work on it so...
Best bet is to get the apk file and play it on an emulator on PC that runs an old version of android I guess ?
