Rift Run
Saves and cloud sync
Keep a run on this browser
Campaign progress is saved in this browser’s site storage. Another browser or device does not share that storage. Clearing site data can remove your local run and cloud-save ID.
Turn on cloud saving
Open Settings and enable Cloud save (beta). The game uses an anonymous ID rather than an email account. Keep this ID private: anyone who has it can load and delete the cloud saves under it.
Link a second device
- On the device with your run, enable cloud saving and let it save while online.
- In Settings, find Link a device, choose Show ID, then Copy. If copying is unavailable, the field is selected so you can use your device’s copy command.
- On the second device, open Rift Run and Settings. Enable cloud saving to reveal the cloud controls.
- Paste the ID into Use an ID from another device, then choose Link.
- Read the warning and choose Confirm. The game reloads and uses that ID’s cloud save in place of this device’s progress. Keep a copy of this device’s old ID first if you need it.
Linking gives the cloud run priority on the next load. If the cloud cannot be read, the game keeps local progress and waits to read it safely; it does not immediately upload this device’s old run over it.
Choose a cloud save
Settings lists readable cloud saves. Load asks you to confirm before replacing this device’s run. An explicit selection takes priority on the next boot. Cloud sync does not merge competing runs from different tabs or devices.
If sync pauses, progress stays on this device. Reload while online to reconcile, or choose the cloud save you intend to continue. Keep the current tab and its site data until you have checked the run you want to keep.
Offline play and updates
After the game has loaded online and its service worker has cached it, the campaign can run offline. Cloud requests need a connection; failed uploads fall back to local saving.
The game’s offline installation belongs to /play/. This portal and its Guides do not install an offline cache. Open the game online before depending on it without a connection.
When an update is available, Update applies it at once on the title screen. During a run, activation waits for a safe boundary. The game saves before an accepted update reloads it. A short Rift updated message confirms the new version.
Delete cloud saves
Use Delete cloud saves in Settings. If deletion fails, the game keeps the information needed to retry and shows Retry. Deleting on one device does not stop another device with the same ID from saving again; delete on each linked device too.
