Then, I went to 'save and exit to desktop' but when I loaded the game today I needed to save the girl all over again!  UGH!  Very disheartening. Can anyone enlighten me?  (That's one reason I like a game in a BOX, it always had directions or shortcuts with it)

Seriously, I have to save the falling girl AGAIN!  LOL!  Seems like a poor design because sometimes 'real life' makes you quit the game suddenly.  I can't believe this can happen again and again.  Makes me wonder what the purpose of the 'save and quit' game option is then??
