Thank for your reply.

I searched save file on my game folder but I don't find the save.

I only have my normal files: MONSTER.SOU, TENTACLE.000, TENTACLE.001.

Sorry for my possible bad English :/

Not really, the SCUMM engine should use s## as save extension, so for example dott.s00 would be a savefile of DOTT.

@LordHoto You are right, I looked with file explorer in game folders a little.

So where does it store save games then?

I don't know what the default location for Android is. You can setup a custom location in the options dialog though...

Yes, I would like to use the custom location, but for the moment my save is in default location and I like to move elsewhere for then to use the custom location.

But I can not find it :cry:

posted a similar question in another thread and got this answer from gus, the developer of the android port:
Android ScummVM stores scummvmrc in the per-app data area, usually /data/ data/org.inodes.gus.scummvm/files/scummvmrc iirc. The per-app restrictive file permissions means you can't 'ls' from a non-root shell, but you can read scummvmrc and savegames if you know the right path (files are publicly readable Android's parent directories are executable but not readable)
