Cloud saves, Google login and progress while away

Your band can keep making progress while you are away. Your cloud save is a snapshot of progress that has successfully synchronized.

Before you leave

Prepare your band and begin a journey in the game. Progress while away follows the game's current rules and limits. Check the in-game information for the exact limits in your version.

Progress and synchronization are different

Progress on a device is not automatically proof that the cloud has received it. Use the game's account and synchronization status before switching devices. An internet connection may be required for account services and synchronization even when progression itself continues while you are away.

Check your cloud backup on the website

1. Open Wandering Bands and use your existing Google Play Games account.
2. In the game menu, use Cloud backup to back up your current progress. Wait for the game to confirm success.
3. Open the Lagunast player account and choose Continue with Google. Select the same account used in the game.
4. Choose Refresh. Compare the received-by-cloud timestamp with the time you made the backup.

Cloud backup uploads current progress. Restoring a backup is a different operation; do not restore or delete a newer local save just to refresh this website.

What the player account can show

The website's player account shows the most recent available cloud snapshot. Its Gold figure describes that snapshot, not unsynchronized activity on your phone. An older timestamp means you should check synchronization in the game before relying on the website's summary.

What does “Older cloud snapshot” mean?

The website labels a snapshot older when the cloud received it more than 24 hours ago. This does not mean your Google login failed. It means the displayed Gold, adventurers and bands come from that older snapshot.

Why does it say “No games on this account yet”?

The Google account you signed in with has no Wandering Bands cloud save the account service can find. Check which Google account the game uses for Play Games and complete a cloud backup there, then refresh. The website does not match or merge accounts by email.

Is Gold shared across games?

No. The displayed amount is Gold in the last Wandering Bands cloud save. The portal cannot purchase, transfer or spend Gold, and it is not a shared studio wallet.

If the figures differ

Check that you are using the same Play Games account, let the game synchronize, and refresh the player account. Do not delete a local save to fix a website display. Contact support if the difference remains.
