### 5/5 — this is the closest thing we're gonna get to letterboxd for video games

*2026-04-11*

i don't know why they don't have the half lifes as an option to log but it's cool sigh

**Developer response:** We do! Just type “half” in the search and they should come up, if you type “half life” without the “half-life” dash they may not show up :)
