What it is
Materium is a web-based tracker for video game libraries, play sessions, reviews, and discoveries. Steam can import a library and playtime, with Steam achievements supported; PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch libraries can be entered manually. Its play journal records session time, notes, and spoiler tags, and shows a heatmap of recent activity. Users can create ranked or unranked lists and make them public, unlisted, or private. The free Explorer plan includes an unlimited collection and three lists, while Collector allows unlimited lists and combines Steam achievements with PlayStation trophies on game pages, including trophy tiers, global rarity, and pinning. Tonight’s pick suggests a backlog game from play history, ratings, and game length. Explorer is free forever; Collector costs $4.00 per month or $39 per year and adds no ads plus achievement and trophy tracking. Materium is operated by US studio Voidrender Systems LLC and is intended for users aged 13 and older.
