What it does

Stay organized and social with Gamelib ~ Store your games in libraries, log playthroughs to your diary, rate and review games, follow friends, create custom ranked/unranked lists, see upcoming and popular games, and more.

A thank-you and farewell to Gamelib, which will shut down on September 1, 2026.

Gamelib was a social platform for people who love games. It let you keep track of your collection and progress, follow friends, write reviews, and discover what to play next. I started Gamelib in high school because I loved playing games and wanted something like Letterboxd for them. I wanted a social place where I could keep track of what I played and share my reviews with others. I couldn’t give Gamelib the time and care it needed anymore. Closing it properly felt better than letting it slowly disappear. Thank you to everyone who signed up, added a game, shared feedback, or told a friend about Gamelib. I’m grateful you gave it afrom benja.dev

    Hey HN, I’m the solo developer of Search to Play, a social bookmarking platform for gamers — kind of like Letterboxd or Goodreads, but for video games. You can log your games, track your backlog, write reviews, and follow others. I’m building this as an alternative to spreadsheet tracking or platform-locked tools (Steam, PSN, etc). Would love your feedback! Happy to answer any questions here.
