What it is
VideoGameBacklog.com is a free web tracker for organizing a personal game library, recording play history and sharing a public profile. Users can import a Steam library and sync games and playtime from a public Steam profile, or manually add titles from consoles, physical collections, retro systems, other stores and delisted releases. The library records statuses and dates for games that are started, paused or finished, and stores ratings, notes, profile settings and sync history. Insights group games by release year. Public profiles can be shared, while a comparison tool identifies games held by two profiles. Four free public tools require no account or installation. Its Steam analyzer uses a public profile to show owned games that have never been launched without saving the library. Steam import requires game details to be public in Steam privacy settings. Sign-in is available through Steam or email. Email accounts store an address and one-way password hash, while connected Steam accounts store public profile and library data needed for syncing. Optional PostHog and Microsoft Clarity analytics run only after consent. The site is maintained by one person, teemuk2.
