Glowing crystal protected inside a small stone vault

You have worked through several realms and now wonder: where is all this saved, and what could erase it? Here is the straightforward answer about how Sozo Tower Defense saves your progress, using only what the developer publishes.

What gets saved

The support page says your unlocked levels, stars, upgrades and settings are saved locally on your headset. The privacy policy confirms the same and adds the identifier and name of the room you last confirmed for mixed reality.

So your campaign across the 160 levels, your tower upgrades and your preferences all live on the device.

Local means local

"Locally" has real consequences:

  • The data is stored in the game's private storage on your headset.
  • It is not uploaded to the developer; the game has no account system and no server connection of its own.
  • The privacy policy notes that your headset platform may include app data in its own backups, according to its privacy policy. We cannot promise how that works on your device, so check your platform's backup settings if this matters to you.

What can erase progress

The support page is clear on one point: uninstalling the game removes your progress and settings. The privacy policy says the same about retention and deletion.

So, before you do any of these, think twice:

  1. Uninstalling the game to free up storage.
  2. Factory-resetting your headset.
  3. Selling or giving away the headset without thinking about the data.

Does a reinstall bring it back?

The developer states that uninstalling removes progress. Whether any platform backup could restore app data is up to your headset platform, and we do not make claims about it. Treat an uninstall as a reset unless you have good reason to believe otherwise.

Playing on more than one headset

Because the save is local to the headset, progress on one headset does not follow you to another by the game's own design. If you have a Quest 2 and a Quest 3, expect separate saves unless your platform does something on its own.

Storage management tips

If your headset is running out of space:

  • Check which other apps you can remove first.
  • Delete videos and screenshots you have already copied off.
  • Avoid removing Sozo unless you are ready to start over.

Clearing your own data deliberately

If you want to wipe your progress for a fresh start, uninstalling does it. To remove your room layout, use your headset's Space Setup settings, as the privacy policy explains.

Learn more on the Sozo page, or grab the game from the official store page.

A habit worth building

Treat your headset storage like a bookshelf you tidy on purpose. Before removing anything, open the list of installed apps and sort by size. Often a few large videos or unused demos free more room than a game you love. If you are ever unsure whether something is safe to delete, leave Sozo alone and remove something else first. Also note when you last made real progress: if you just cleared a realm, you will feel any loss more sharply than after a casual evening. That small awareness prevents most regrets, and it costs nothing.

Questions to ask yourself before you reset anything

When you think about uninstalling or resetting, pause and ask three questions. How far have I got, and how much would I mind replaying it? Do I really need the storage, or can I remove something else first? Am I sure I am clearing the right app? Because the support page says uninstalling removes your progress and settings, an app that looks like clutter in a list may represent weeks of campaign. Answering honestly takes under a minute and prevents the single most common cause of lost progress.
