Your games are scattered across storefronts, consoles and a decade of half-finished saves. GameCache brings them together into one library that is finally yours. Import from Steam and Xbox to start with the shelf you already have, not an empty one, then add anything else by hand from a catalogue of hundreds of thousands of games, on any platform you play. Everything else is built on top of that: what you're playing, what you've finished, what's still waiting, and what you're hoping for. BUILD YOUR CACHE Import your Steam and Xbox libraries in a couple of taps, with playtime carried across where it's available. Add PC, console and handheld games by hand from the full catalogue. Sort everything into Owned, Playing and Played, keep a backlog you'll actually look at, and a wishlist for everything still to come. TRACK WHAT YOU ACTUALLY PLAY Log sessions and playthroughs and see where your hours really went; per game, per month, and over time. A sessions calendar shows your year at a glance, and playtime adds up automatically as you go. RATE, REVIEW AND RANK Score what you finish and your CacheScore follows, the running average of every rating you've given. Write reviews other players can read and reply to, and build lists and tier lists from anything in the catalogue. SEE WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS PLAYING Follow other players and keep up with what they're finishing. Compare libraries game by game to find the overlap, and the gaps. Reviews have threaded replies, so recommendations turn into conversations. NEVER MISS A RELEASE Get notified when a wishlisted game comes out, when a gaming event is about to start, and when a game you've been playing has been sitting untouched for a while. EARN YOUR PROGRESS Achievements track the things worth tracking; games mastered, hours logged, reviews written, libraries imported. SHARE IT Turn any game, review, list or profile into a share card built for posting, and let people open it straight in the app. YOUR DATA IS YOURS Export everything you've added at any time, and delete your account and its data from inside the app whenever you want. No waiting on a support request. GameCache is free to use and supported by ads. Game data powered by IGDB.
