Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/442120/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (442120) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.

  1. Zen Studios says goodbye to last-gen with Pinball FX3 - Eurogamer.net - last accessed on 2017-07-10
    "There are some tables not making the jump to Pinball FX3 due to business / licensing challenges. Zen has been developing licensed content for almost seven years now, and not all agreements have language that allows us to move from platform to platform. That said, there are a handful (literally) of licensed tables that we will have to, very sadly, leave behind"
