Why a Steam backlog gets out of hand
Steam makes buying easy and forgetting easier. A library of a few hundred games is normal, and much of it has never been launched. Steam itself shows you the whole pile, sorted A to Z, which is the least useful way to decide anything.
Import your Steam library
- Connect Steam in Prysm.
- Sign in on Steam’s own page. Prysm never sees your password.
- Return to the app. Your owned games arrive with hours played.
Prysm tells you how many games it found and how many it matched before it asks anything of you, and the import always finishes in full. Where Steam sells an edition or remaster, Prysm files it under the main game.
See what you actually play
Hours played is the honest part of any library. The games with real hours are the ones you care about; the zero-hour pile is where the backlog lives. Mark games Playing, Backlog, Completed or Paused, and drop the ones you know you will never start.
Matching is measured on played games for that reason. In a September 2026 test against a real 4,652-game Steam library, 123 of the 148 games ever played were matched to the catalog, about 83%. The rate across everything owned is lower, because big libraries fill up with bundle extras nobody opens.
Then let the backlog pick for you
Once your Steam games are in, roulette can deal one that fits the time you have tonight. Filter it to PC and every answer is a game you own and can launch right now.
Not just Steam
Add games from any platform with search, or by sharing a TikTok or YouTube link. On Android, Prysm can also scan your phone for installed games; nothing leaves the phone except the list of matches. Xbox import is coming. For the technical details, see Platform imports in the docs.
