How to save data for multiple games (exporting a data store to another game)

How can I make data save for multiple games, basically, taking a datastore from one game and exporting it to another? I’ve searched through the forum and found something about “Universes” and GlobalDataStores

All the explanations I found on this topic were SO bland and did not explain properly how to use a GlobalDataStore let alone make a “Universe” (seriously, why have I never heard of this? how do you even make a Universe place?)

If you are talking about places within the main place, also known as “Universes”, then you don’t need to worry about exporting the data. All data saved in any of the Universes (including the main place) will be accessible with the same data.

Let’s say you have a script that loads the data, if you place that script in Universe A and Universe B, both will get the same data.

To create a new universe, go to the game settings inside Studio, go to the Places tab, and then create a new place.
