In their own words

Gameforge Client

Gameforge Client is a Windows gaming platform that brings Gameforge games together in one place. The client presents a simple sequence: install it, discover games, and play. A Gameforge account can manage accounts for multiple games under one email address and password, and can automatically sign players in when a game launches. Its remember-password option avoids entering the password for every launch. Players can add and save new game accounts; to connect an existing game account, they sign in with its game credentials and confirm their email address. Another account can be added through a game's Library settings. A Gameforge account works with a game when that title appears in the Client's Library, and Gameforge says more games are planned for integration. Separate Gameforge accounts cannot currently be merged. The client also connects to Gameforge support, where users can contact support and view ticket history; registering an account simplifies ticket processing. Gameforge is a publisher and developer of online games, from browser titles to MMORPGs. The client is free.

GOG Galaxy

GOG Galaxy brings game libraries and friends from different gaming platforms into one app for Windows and macOS. It can collect PC and console games, including titles that are not installed, and track achievements, play time, and owned games across connected services. For PC games, it can install and launch titles owned on different platforms. Library tools include filtering, sorting, tagging, changing game visuals, saving views, and editing metadata. Galaxy combines friends lists, online status, activity, and cross-platform chat. Games can enter the library through official or community-made integrations, or be added manually; community integrations are open source, and GOG provides documentation for creating them. Library changes sync between devices, and offline mode is available. GOG says it does not share imported personal data with third parties and removes it from its servers when a platform is disconnected. GOG-specific features include auto-updates, cloud saves, multiplayer, matchmaking, and rollbacks. Other platforms’ client software is needed for their platform-specific features. The app is free with a GOG account.
