Big Walk Crashed: How to Rejoin Safely
Restart the game, let the host confirm the world is still active, then use a fresh code if the old one no longer works. Check that the last tower or puzzle reward was saved.

The useful answer
Restart the game, let the host confirm the world is still active, then use a fresh code if the old one no longer works. Check that the last tower or puzzle reward was saved.

Step by step
- Close and relaunch the game.
- Host checks the current world state.
- Rejoin through friends or a new code.
- Verify carried progression objects after loading.
Why players get stuck here
Temporary puzzle objects may reset while host progression remains. Re-check the receiver before repeating a whole route.
Decide how much needs repeating
First inspect the receiver or tower associated with the last completed challenge. If the reward was already submitted, continue from that saved state. If the mechanism reset and the loose reward disappeared, redo only that challenge. Avoid replaying an entire tower route before checking what the host retained.
If the host crashed, everyone will disconnect. Let the host stabilize performance, load first and then distribute the newly generated code.
Verify it before moving on
Change one variable at a time, then retest from a fresh session. That makes it clear which fix worked and avoids turning a connection, audio or input problem into several overlapping problems.
