Cozy Game Restoration: Will Demo Saves Transfer?

At a glance

Plan for a fresh start: the developer intends to reset progress for the full game because the demo gives too much money and valuable stock. Separate save locations and retained settings have not been confirmed, so do not rely on a manual transfer.

Plan for a fresh start in the full game

The developer plans to reset progress for the full game rather than let the demo economy carry straight into the opening hours. The October 16 reply to a player’s transfer question repeats that plan.

The demo gives players enough money and valuable games to skip too much of the full game’s early progression. Treat your demo session as practice and exploration, rather than a way to bank a head start for launch.

A reset plan does not confirm save-file details

The developer said they believed the demo and full game saved in different locations, but still needed to double-check. That is not a confirmed file-path guide.

The exact save locations, which settings might remain, and whether demo files will stay accessible alongside the full game have not been confirmed. There is no verified transfer or manual-copy procedure here. A planned fresh start also does not mean the demo files have already been deleted.

Old demo compatibility is a different question

Advice about continuing an older demo save in a newer demo does not establish what happens when moving from the demo to the full game. Keep the two transitions separate.

For the October demo’s games, day limit and cleaning rules, see what is in the final demo. Its restrictions and extra starting cash describe that demo session, not the full game’s long-term economy.

Is it still worth playing the demo?

Play it to learn the tools, try the collection room and decide whether you enjoy the cleaning loop. Avoid grinding solely because you expect the collection or money to become launch progress.

If a dirty toothbrush is making that practice frustrating, start with the cleaning-progress checks. For the planned release and official download entry, use the release and platform guide.
