Common gameplay questions
I fell into water. Why did I return to the same side?
Water is a room failure, not a passage. The explorer returns to the bank or doorway used to enter the challenge.
Do I need a tool to finish the game?
No. The torch, rope, and prybar reveal optional routes, shortcuts, or treasure. Every expedition can be completed without a tool.
Can I carry more than one tool?
No. One tool may be selected per expedition.
What is saved?
The current build stores your best completion time and best treasure result locally on the device. A run in progress is not intended as a permanent save file.
Why did my best result disappear?
Removing the app, clearing its local data, or changing devices may remove locally stored records. The current build does not use an online account or cloud save.
Is there combat?
No. Stonegate: Wildbound is built around movement, timing, exploration, and avoiding danger.
