2.2 Profiles and Saved Games
Profiles
Each time you start a new game, you must enter a name for the profile under
which your saved games and options will be stored. Profiles allow several
people to store saved games independently from each over, or for you to
experiment with different playing styles.
Load game
To load a previously saved game, choose “Load game” from the main menu or
from the “Escape Menu” (See 2.4. “The Escape Menu”). You will then be presented
with the “Profile list” menu.
• Load a profile – Load the selected profile.
• Delete – Delete the selected profile.
• Exit – Return to the previous menu.
After loading a profile, you will see the
load/save game screen:
There is no limit to the number of games that
you can save. Use the scroll bar on the right
to view all your games. Information on the
officers present in that saved game is
displayed along the bottom of the screen.
• Profile – Choose another profile.
• Load game – Load the selected game.
• Delete – Delete the selected game.
• Exit – Return to the previous menu.
Saving the game
The save game option is only available from The Escape Menu (See 2.4 “The
Escape Menu”). The interface is similar to the Load Game interface, but the
“Load game” button is, perhaps unsurprisingly, replaced by a “Save game”
button. To save your game, choose a free cell and click the “Save game”
button. If you choose a cell in which a game is already present, you will be
asked whether you wish to overwrite it.
