Backloggr vs MetaGamerScore

Backloggr brings a video game collection and play history together in an app for iOS and macOS. It tracks games, ratings, backlog, and play activity, with a database the service says contains more than 350,000 games across 250+ platforms. PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam libraries can sync automatically; the App Store listing also mentions Nintendo Switch importing. Physical copies and indie games can be added manually. Progress views include collection size, completion rate, backlog depth, hours played, a backlog score, and a Year in Review. For discovery, Backloggr lists games trending by community activity, wishlisted-release countdowns, and new releases sorted by hype. A dashboard combines Steam achievements, PlayStation trophies, and Xbox Gamerscore. Community features listed for the app include reviews, public lists, follows, comments, direct messages, badges, and a feed. The free plan includes library import, game tracking, trophies, and backlog tracking. Pro costs $2.99 a month, $8.99 a year, or 14.99 USD once. The website privacy policy says it is a placeholder that still needs actual processing and controller details.

MetaGamerScore is a free web service that combines gaming achievements from multiple platforms into a persistent metascore. It automatically values achievements by rarity, while game and achievement values are adjusted for popularity and rarity. The service says it supports 30 platforms and game services and retains history from 8 retired integrations. Its listed services include Steam, PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, GOG, RetroAchievements, and Roblox. Users can compare games and achievements with friends, compete in global, country, yearly, crew, completist, and world-first rankings, form crews, challenge friends, and share achievement guides. It requires no client installation. The FAQ says the service does not ask for gaming passwords and collects only data available without them. When possible, it preserves linked accounts and achievement history after an integration shuts down, a practice it says dates to its 2011 launch. The service is not open source. It is free to use, with optional monthly Patreon pledges for perks such as more frequent achievement scans, ad removal, custom profile and crew URLs, and extra crew slots. Patron perks are added manually after a pledge goes through.
