What VideoGameBacklog.com 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 games from consoles, physical collections, retro systems, other stores and delisted titles. The library records statuses and dates for starting, pausing and finishing games, with space for ratings and notes. It also keeps profile settings and sync history, and shows library insights grouped by release year. Public profiles can be shared, while a comparison tool finds games two profiles have in common. Four public tools are available without an account or installation; a Steam analyzer shows games owned but never launched without saving the library. Steam import tools require game details to be public in Steam privacy settings. Users can sign in with Steam or email. The site says it is maintained by one person, identified as teemuk2.
