About Playthroughs

Playthroughs is a home for your life in games. Keep track of what you’re playing, what you want to play and what you’ve already played, and follow friends to see what they’re enjoying and find your next game.

Mark a game played and rate it in a tap, or keep a journal as you go, with dated sessions, notes and playtime, then look back on the whole run with a recap when you finish. Replays get their own playthrough, so your history keeps every attempt.

Ports, remasters and editions sit together under one game, so you can record the version and platform you actually played. Save games to Want to Play, line them up in Play Next, make lists worth sharing and catalogue your physical and digital collection.
