Dear Sir,
I have purchased a new iphone, and although I backedup and restored my applications, and although my achievments on Deer Hunter appear on my game center, I still can't restore my achievments on the game itself.
Please advise what can be done? I was at area 8 with alot of cash now im back to first level!!!!!!
Thank you,
Regards.

For Apple via iTunes App Store:
As stated earlier, Glu’s games store their saved progress on the local device only. The games do not, in themselves, back up their data elsewhere. However Apple devices do provide a means of backing up to iTunes or iCloud, and that is how one may back up one’s saved game. A few Glu titles, as a convenience, have an iCloud icon within the game which provides easy access to Apple’s iCloud service for backing up that game’s data. For those titles, we recommend taking advantage of that feature - back up frequently!
For games without this in-game icon, your game data will be saved when you perform a full device backup. As every computer user knows, frequent backups are essential.
TO TRANSFER YOUR GAME TO A NEW iOS DEVICE: Start by doing a FULL BACKUP of your original device, either to the PC’s Tunes app or to iCloud. For maximum safety, we recommend doing both: back up first to iTunes, then to iCloud. When backing to iCloud, make note of the account you use on that device. It is recommended that you go to Settings > General > About > Name and rename your device something other than the default, so there is no confusion as to which device’s backup is which. DON’T TAKE CHANCES! Do your backup and restore on a high-speed WiFi network. A 3G or 4G carrier network is likely to be much less reliable.
If you are restoring the data to an older model device than that which you backed up from, first make note of the operating system versions. Devices with an iOS version prior to iOS 5 do not support iCloud. Note that your game may not perform the same on an older model device as on your newer one. Once your device has been backed up, you may then use the restore feature on your second device:
When setting up the device to which you wish to transfer your saved data, do NOT select “Set up as new iPad.” Choose “Restore from iTunes” or “Restore from iCloud.” The backup you have just done will download to your new device with all the data intact.
IMPORTANT! Give the restore plenty of time to complete! It may seem like the backup is finished when your device first re-starts, but Restore needs to go through several steps. Keep an eye on the progress bar. Backups of large amounts of data can take a half hour or more. Disconnecting before backup is finished will cause all kinds of problems with missing data.
