How to recover an accidentally deleted game on iPhone?

I accidentally deleted a game I’ve been playing for a bit. I’ve come so far. Can anyone help me get it back? Please

If the game stored the data on the phone, then the data is deleted with the game. In this case, your only option would be if you are using iCloud backup and the file had not been overwritten with a new backup since you deleted the game. You can check the time that this file was last overwritten at Settings > [name on top] > iCloud > iCloud Backup, then tap the device.


Many games store data in iCloud or on their own servers, and then the data would be available for you again when you redownloaded the game.
