I'm going to vent for a second. As you know I've been playing this game on gamcore, I downloaded it and had to start all over. The problem is. I can't remember everything I did to get the scenes and achievements I've accomplished in the past couple of weeks. Just a little irritating

I haven't played it on gamecore, but can you go back into that version and export the achievements and saves to your local hard disk?

If so, you should be able to re-import them into the PC version and not have to repeat yourself.

FYI, the "Export" commands save by default to your "Downloads" folder.

EDIT: ... if you haven't set it to something else. :)

That depends on how your browser is configured. For example, I configure all my browsers to ask where to save files before downloading them.

I couldn't figure out how to do that with Chrome and never thought to try with Firefox. I'll look into it. Thanks.

EDIT: Well, that was easy. The default is still "Downloads" but easy to change, at least with Firefox.

Like I said before, I'm not that savvy when it comes to computers. I burned it to a disk, now it's just a matter of importing

The "Import" functions let you navigate to wherever the files are stored. Remember that Saves and Achievements save as separate files. It sounds like you have the problem solved.

Also be aware if you move the game to another folder or disk, saves will go again, so make sure you export all to be able to import later if needed.
For example when the new episode comes, it may change folder name.

As for game tips, I'm struggling finding the Hand Lotion & Handy At The Office achievements. Any tip?

Ah thanks for that.
So many options and impact happening long after, it's brilliant. I didn't even think it was there given I had earned Dedicated Worker (not Office Romance though, which should come with those two then).

I'll give it a go. Cheers!

Just a general rule of thumb for all newer players - many of the achievements have pre-requirements that go back to the first day. To get them all, you will have to follow all of the various paths, starting with the minute Brad walks in the office door on Wednesday morning. And it is not possible to find everything in one - or even half-a-dozen - plays. The various story paths start branching very early. :twisted:

I was able to successfully move my achievements, but not my saves. Running on windows and chrome
