What Materium is
Materium is a web-based place to track a video game collection, play sessions, reviews, and discoveries. Connect Steam to import a library and playtime, with Steam achievements supported; PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch libraries can be entered by hand. A play journal records session time, notes, and spoiler tags, and a heatmap shows recent play history. Users can make ranked or unranked lists and set each to public, unlisted, or private. Explorer is free and includes three lists; Collector removes the list limit and adds achievement and trophy tracking, combining Steam achievements and PlayStation trophies on game pages with tiers, global rarity, and pinning. Tonight’s pick draws on play history, ratings, and game length to suggest a backlog title, with an option to reroll. Explorer includes an unlimited collection, Steam auto-sync, manual entry, search and metadata, and basic stats. Collector costs $4/mo or $39/year. Materium is intended for people aged 13 and older.
