FAQ
What this backlog tracker is actually for.
Community-driven and built in public. Help shape the next version by telling us what would make your backlog easier to trust, share, and actually play.
How is this different from sites like Backloggd?
Backloggd is built around a social feed of reviews, likes, and activity to scroll through. This is built around your library being complete and trustworthy: Steam import plus first-class manual entry so every game counts, a visible play timeline, and a profile that reads as your taste rather than a feed to perform on.
What is Video Game Backlog?
It is a video game backlog tracker for organizing your personal game library, recording play history, and publishing a shareable profile that reflects your actual taste.
Can I use it if most of my library is not on Steam?
Yes. Steam import is just one input. Manual entry is first-class, so console games, physical copies, retro games, and delisted titles can still live in the same library.
Why not just use a spreadsheet or a generic notes app?
Because this keeps status, dates, ratings, and visibility together in a format that stays readable over time and is built to be shared publicly when you want it to be.
Can I try it without creating an account?
Yes. The free Steam pile of shame analyzer reads a public Steam profile and shows every game you own but never launched — no account, no Steam login, no library saved.
Can I compare my backlog with someone else's?
Yes. Use the public library comparison with two public profile usernames to find shared games and a focused play together shortlist.
