Trophy Rooms
Read full descriptionHide full description
Trophy Rooms is a home for everything you've played, everything you own, and everything you're still chasing. Most trackers stop at "played it." This one keeps the whole room: the library you're working through, the physical shelf behind you, and the hours you actually put in. YOUR LIBRARY, HONESTLY SORTED Every game you play in one place, from retro classics to this year's releases. Give each one a status — backlog, playing, paused, completed, dropped — and see the pile shrink. Filter by platform, sort how you like, and jump back into whatever you left unfinished. THE SHELF, PROPERLY CATALOGED Physical collectors get first-class treatment. Record region, condition, and whether a copy is complete-in-box or still sealed. Track boxes, manuals, and extras. Multi-game compilations and bundles are handled properly instead of being flattened into one entry. Keep a buylist for what's next and a sell list for what's on its way out. A PLAY JOURNAL THAT KEEPS YOU HONEST Log what you played and for how long in a single tap. Daily entries build a streak worth protecting, and weekly and all-time totals show where your hours really went. ACHIEVEMENTS AND TROPHIES Follow achievement sets game by game and watch completion climb. Finish a set and the trophy lands in your room. BUILT ON A REAL CATALOG Search more than 47,000 games across dozens of platforms, with cover art, release dates, editions, DLC, and bundles already mapped out. No manual data entry to get started. SEE WHERE YOU STAND Leaderboards and a community activity feed show what everyone else is finishing. Free to use. Sign in with Apple, Google, or email — and delete your account and data from inside the app whenever you want.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: readme at every 2 days against Trophy Rooms's every 3 weeks. readme also leads on iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
