TH.GL
What it is
TH.GL is a game companion service with interactive maps, overlays, position tracking, and related tools. Its maps can locate nodes, collectibles, NPCs, and resources, with filters, custom markers, and routes that can be shared. The standalone Companion App supports more than 32 games and detects supported games automatically. It can show in-game maps or minimaps with live position and nearby points of interest, and users can customize hotkeys. Peer Link can mirror a map and live position to a phone, tablet, or other device. Web maps work across devices without a download, but lack overlays and position tracking. The maker says the local-running Companion App is read-only, needs no account, and does not modify or inject into games; it also reports developer approval for Dune: Awakening, Once Human, and Palia. The app is free with ads. Supporter plans remove ads and include premium features, starting at $2 a month, billed free for the first three months. Live details vary by game, and some games show only player position.
For and against
For

Against

- Companion App and game subdomains are ad-supported for non-subscribers.
The verdict
TH.GL combines flexible maps with a separate app for overlays and live tracking. Check support for your game, since live details differ and web maps omit tracking and overlays.
Who it suits
TH.GL suits players who want game maps, progress tracking, and companion overlays across supported titles. Its web maps may suit people who want maps without downloading an app.
