Where Are Dark Pals: The 1st Floor Save Files Located?
Dark Pals: The 1st Floor saves to %LOCALAPPDATA%\The5thFloor\Saved\SaveGames, named after the asylum floor, not the game.
Last updated
Dark Pals: The 1st Floor is a mascot horror game from Skunx Games, released on May 1, 2026 and built in Unreal Engine 5. The save folder does not use the game's name.
Everything goes under %LOCALAPPDATA%\The5thFloor\Saved. Saves and settings both sit in the SaveGames folder, which is another small oddity. Steam Cloud is enabled, so normal play should survive a reinstall. The project name comes from the asylum floor where the game takes place, and it is the string you have to search for in Explorer, not the title on the store page.
Where Dark Pals: The 1st Floor stores this, by platform
%LOCALAPPDATA%\The5thFloor\Saved\SaveGames
The folder is named The5thFloor, a reference to the game's setting, not Dark Pals. Saves and config share this folder. Steam Cloud covers it.
Frequently asked questions
Where are Dark Pals: The 1st Floor saves?
In %LOCALAPPDATA%\The5thFloor\Saved\SaveGames. Paste that into the Explorer address bar. Searching for Dark Pals will not find it, since the folder uses the game's internal floor name.
Why is the folder called The5thFloor?
It is the internal project name used during development. Unreal Engine builds often keep that name in their user data paths after the public title is finalized.
Are settings in the same folder as saves?
Yes. Both live in The5thFloor\Saved\SaveGames, so copying the folder preserves progress and local options together.
Does Dark Pals use Steam Cloud?
Yes. Steam Cloud is enabled for the game. That should restore the folder after a reinstall, but keep a copy if you are moving to a different Steam account.
