Minimap is the gaming journal where gamers track their libraries, share what they're playing, and find friends with taste like theirs. Build your collection, journal every game, and stop playing alone, even when the game is single-player. ONE APP FOR ALL YOUR GAMES Connect Steam, PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, and Nintendo Switch to automatically import your full game library. No more spreadsheets. No more switching between platforms. No more forgetting what you own. Your entire gaming life sits in one clean library, automatically updated every time you buy or play a new game.

Find out where your gaming hours actually went, what you played most this year, and which genres dominated your year. Get a full year-in-review that tells the story of your gaming life. GAMING JOURNAL & REVIEWS Rate every game on a scale that makes sense to you. Write a short journal entry the moment you finish a game, or a long-form review when something moves you. Build a permanent record of your gaming life: what you played, what you loved, and what you'll never touch again. A gaming journal for players, the way Letterboxd works for film lovers.

YOUR GAMER PROFILE Your stats become a profile. Show off your favorite genres, completion rate, playtime, hours-per-game, and gaming history. A social badge that's actually yours, earned hour by hour, game by game. BUILD YOUR OWN COLLECTIONS Curate games into custom collections that fit how you think. Build "Games I Bought on Sale and Forgot About," "RPGs Worth 100 Hours," or "Comfort Games for Bad Days." Share collections with friends or keep them private. Your library, your taste, your way.
