Create an attribute called Current Level.

Then have a rule on your level that says;

Change attribute game.level to 2 (or whatever level you're on)

Save attribute game.level and give it a name of your choice.

Now you will want to put a load attribute on your splash/menu screen.

Load game.level with the name you gave it above.

Then have a rule on your continue button that says;

If touch is pressed and game.level = 1

Change scene to level 1

Otherwise

If game.level = 2

Change scene to level 2

Etc etc

Its best to just implement an auto-save like above without asking the user to save.

This will only work if played once through, if you have say 50 levels, get to 30 and then decide to play level 2 again, it would set the current level at 2 and not 30.

So you need to implement a current level and unlocked level. You'd need to tell it that if current level < than unlocked.level then just change scene.

That should give you the guts of what you need to do
