What it is

VideoGameBacklog.com is a web tracker for organizing a personal game library, recording play history, and sharing a public profile. Steam libraries can be imported and games and playtime synchronized from a public Steam profile. Games from consoles, physical collections, retro systems, other stores, and delisted titles can also be added manually. The library records statuses and dates for starting, pausing, and finishing games, with ratings, notes, profile settings, sync history, and insights grouped by release year. Public profiles can be shared, and a comparison tool finds games common to two profiles. Four public tools require no account or installation, including an analyzer showing owned but never-launched games without saving the library. Steam import requires public game details. Sign-in is available through Steam or email. The site is free and maintained by one person identified as teemuk2.
