save slots
Game progress containers
Save slots are designated spaces in a video game where players can store their progress.
Most games offer multiple save slots, allowing players to maintain separate playthroughs or create backup saves before risky decisions: I used all three save slots for different character builds.
The concept dates to early console and computer games with limited memory.
