Steam family sharing

[Vinceofpyrenees]

Hello survivors,

Me and my dad playing an adventure through the family steam sharing (I own TLD and we play on his steam account). If I gift him the game, will our saved game disappear ? Should I wait our character's death ? The game is actually saved on the cloud.

You could find where the save file is right now, and make a backup.  That way if something unexpected does happen you can put it back in the necessary folder and pick up where you folks left off.

There is no file into the game folder.  Because of the saves on the cloud ?

No, there is indeed a local saved game file, here is how to find it:

Bear in mind that it could be on your Father's system or yours (or both) depending on how the game was being shared.
