Game Backlog
A private game backlog in one HTML file on your machine: no account, no cloud, no server to talk to.
This is not a screenshot. It's the real tool, running right here: go on, put something in it.
Forged into a knife, this tool ages with use: the blades you reach for wear soft, entries you tend keep their bloom, and the years travel with the file through every reforge.
Every sale adds three games to the pile and every year subtracts maybe two from it. The Game Backlog keeps the pile honest: each game, its status — Wishlist, Playing, Completed or Abandoned — the platform it is on, and a rating out of 10. Abandoned is a legitimate status; the list says so in writing.

Standing facts
- One HTML file. Opens in any modern browser, on any operating system.
- No account. No login, no sign-up, no e-mail wall.
- No cloud. Nothing leaves your browser: no server, no telemetry, no analytics.
- Yours forever. The file keeps working whether or not Offline.Ltd does.
- Ages with use. Entries you tend keep their bloom; the years travel with the file through every reforge.
In ten years
Whatever you put in (Game, Status, Platform and Rating 1-10) stays inside the file itself. There is no account to lapse, no plan to be sunset, no migration e-mail with a deadline in it. A decade of game backlog entries is a decade of your own handwriting, kept in a document you can back up like any other.
If Offline.Ltd closes tomorrow, nothing on your machine notices. That isn't a marketing promise; it's simply what a file is.
Getting your data out
Export to CSV from inside the tool and open it in anything: a spreadsheet, another app, a text editor. Or keep the HTML file: it is plain, readable, and inspectable; you can open it in a text editor and see your own rows sitting there. No export queue, no "we'll e-mail you a link within 48 hours", no format that only one vendor can read.
Copy the file to a USB stick, a NAS, a folder your devices already sync. It runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS, online or off, because a browser is the only thing it ever needed.
Who else sees this
Nobody. Your Game, Status, Platform and Rating 1-10 never leave the file on your own disk. There is no account, no telemetry, no analytics, and no code in the file that opens a network connection, pull the cable and watch it carry on working. How privacy works across the Hobby tools →
Questions people ask
How do I manage my game backlog across multiple platforms?
One list, one row per game, with the platform written on each. Whether it is on the PC, the console or the handheld you forgot in a drawer, the whole backlog stands in one place where it can be reasoned with.
Is it okay to mark a game as Abandoned?
Not just okay — recommended. An honest Abandoned frees the hours a guilty Someday holds hostage. The rating field lets you record what it earned before you moved on.
Where is my backlog stored — do I need to link a storefront account?
No accounts, no linking. It is one HTML file that runs offline in your browser; the list lives on your machine, nothing leaves the page, and it is yours whatever happens to any storefront.
