Because iOS is a walled garden, you cannot see individual game files. However, you can back up the entire app data via iTunes/Finder.

Android local backup (rooted): Back up /data/data/ using a file explorer or Titanium Backup.

iOS backup: Back up the device via iTunes/Finder or iCloud. Restoring the device from backup will restore the app’s local data if included in the backup.

PC/emulator: Copy the emulator’s app data folder or export via the emulator file manager.

iOS: Local save files are inside the app sandbox and aren't directly accessible without a jailbroken device or using iTunes/Finder app file sharing if the developer enabled it.

PC (Windows via emulator): If running Grim Soul in an Android emulator (e.g., BlueStacks, Nox), save files live in the emulator's virtual storage or named app folder. You can use the emulator’s file manager to export files.

Note: Exact package names and folder paths can vary by game version and platform.
