Romestead is a Roman-era survival and building game where you raise a homestead, farm the land, and grow a settlement in the ancient world. In co-op, the homestead is shared - you gather, craft, and expand it together. But the world save lives with the host, so when they are offline the whole settlement is frozen.

How SaveSync Keeps the Homestead Growing

SaveSync syncs your Romestead save to every player. After each session the latest world is distributed automatically, and any player can load it and host. No one waits on a single person to keep building Rome.

Setting Up SaveSync for Romestead

Install SaveSync from Steam - every player needs it.

  1. Click Romestead in the list on the left. You’ll see Romestead’s save management page.
  2. Click “+ New Save” in the top right.
  3. Select your world from the dialog of available worlds.
  4. Click “Create Save”. The save starts syncing.
  5. Wait for the green checkmark.
  6. Click the share icon on your save.
  7. Search for your friend’s Steam username and click Share.
  8. Your friend clicks “Activate” on the shared save, which shows as shared by you. The world is ready, they can host it, and it syncs automatically after that.

SaveSync also keeps a full save history: who uploaded which save and when, with the option to revert to any earlier one.

One-time setup, then it just works.

Why SaveSync Beats the Alternatives

  • No manual transfers. Skip zipping the save folder for Discord before every session.
  • No lost progress. An old save undoes hours of farming and building. SaveSync keeps everyone current.
  • No server bill. A group of friends does not need a paid dedicated server - whoever hosts the latest save covers it.

Want a Dedicated Server Instead? Try the ServerSync Beta

Some groups would rather nobody had to host at all.

ServerSync is our second app, built for exactly that. It runs a Romestead dedicated server on a PC you already own:

  • No port forwarding and no config files. Pick Romestead, name the server, launch it.
  • Bring your current world. It converts a local save you have already played, so nothing is lost moving to a server.
  • Free, with optional premium features. It is in beta now - ask for a key in ServerSync’s Discord.

Keep Building Rome

Your settlement should not stall because one player logged off. Grab SaveSync on Steam - one purchase covers your Romestead group and every other supported game.
