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.

Steam

Steam is an online destination for playing, discussing, and creating games. Its catalog includes nearly 30,000 games, with game hubs, reviews, achievements, and custom recommendations for discovery. Users can meet others, join groups, form clans, and use text or voice chat. Steam Workshop supports making, finding, and downloading mods and cosmetics for nearly 1,000 supported games. Steam Broadcast streams gameplay live to friends or the community. The Steam Mobile app on iOS and Android supports shopping, account protection, game news, notifications, and community features; Steam Guard can approve sign-ins and confirm trades or Community Market listings. Steamworks provides tools and services for developers and publishers distributing games on Steam. Steam is free, but game and content prices vary and some subscriptions may be free. Content is licensed rather than sold; use may require an account, the client, and an internet connection. Users under 13 may not subscribe, and country-specific age limits may also apply.
