Where to Find Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse Save File & Config Location

Editor’s View: Why This Matters

“We have all been there. You are deep into a dungeon run, just about to unlock a new facility in your village, and suddenly—a power outage, or a random crash during an auto-save. When you relaunch, the ‘Continue’ button is greyed out. It is a gamer’s worst nightmare.

I specifically wrote this guide because Never Grave uses the Unity engine, and its save structure can be more fragile than standard platformers. Even if you don’t plan on modding, please backup your SaveGames folder manually right now. Don’t learn this lesson the hard way like I did.”

— Catherine Hu, Senior Editor & Metroidvania Enthusiast at XMODhub

There is nothing worse than sinking 50 hours into Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse, meticulously rebuilding your village and taming the perfect monster souls, only to lose it all to a corrupted save file or a Steam Cloud sync error. Whether you want to manually backup your progress, transfer your save to another PC, or modify the config file for better performance, you first need to find where the data is hidden on your drive.

Below is the exact file path for Never Grave on Windows and Steam Deck, along with a safer, automated method to manage your backups.

Windows PC Save File Location

For the Steam version of Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse, the save files are located in the hidden LocalLow folder, which is where Unity stores persistent user data.

The Direct Path:C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\Frontside180\NeverGrave\Saved\SaveGames\

How to navigate there quickly:

  1. Presse Touche Windows + R sur votre clavier pour ouvrir la boîte de dialogue Exécuter.
  2. Type %appdata% and press Enter.
  3. This will open the Roaming folder. Click on AppData in the address bar to go back one level, then open the LocalLow dossier.
  4. Naviguez jusqu'à Frontside180 > NeverGrave > Saved > SaveGames.

Remarque : If you cannot see the “AppData” folder, you need to enable “Hidden Items” in the View tab of your File Explorer.

Never Grave Config File Location (Graphics & Settings)

If you need to manually tweak graphics settings (like disabling screen shake or changing resolution) that aren’t available in the in-game menu, you will need to edit the configuration file.

Path:C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\Frontside180\NeverGrave\Settings\

How to Edit: Recherchez le Settings.json ou Options.ini file. Right-click it and select Open with Notepad. Be careful not to change lines you don’t understand, as this can cause the game to crash on startup.

Steam Deck / Linux Save Location

If you are playing Never Grave on the Steam Deck, the Windows file structure is emulated within the Proton compatibility layer.

Path:/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/2395770/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/Frontside180/NeverGrave/

Conseil : You will need the specific Steam App ID for Never Grave, which is 2395770.

FAQ

Q: Can I transfer my Never Grave save to another PC?

Yes. Simply copy the entire contents of the SaveGames folder mentioned above to the exact same location on the new computer.

Q: What happens if I delete the config file?

The game will regenerate a default config file upon the next launch, resetting your settings to default. However, we recommend renaming the file to .bak instead of deleting it.

Q: Does modifying save files ban me?

In single-player mode, modifying your save file (e.g., adding Rubies) will not get you banned. However, ensure you are offline if you are testing external tools.

Conclusion

Locating your Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse save file is a crucial skill, whether you are recovering from a glitch or migrating your progress to a Steam Deck. However, digging through hidden system folders always carries a risk.
