Share a link

Saw a game on TikTok? Save it to your backlog

You see a game in a TikTok, think “I need to play that”, and three videos later it’s gone. With Prysm, share the video to the app: it works out which game the video is about, you confirm, and the game is saved with the link so you remember where you found it.

From “what’s that game?” to your backlog

  1. Share the video to Prysm from TikTok or YouTube, or paste the link.
  2. Check the guess. The best match is shown large, with two or three alternatives and a search box if none is right.
  3. Tap to add. The game goes into your library with the original link attached.

How it works out the game

Prysm reads the words that come with the video. Hashtags come first, since #eldenring is about as clear as a caption gets, and generic tags like #fyp are ignored. Then quoted names, then the rest of the caption. For YouTube it reads the title. Those candidates are matched against a catalog of about 90,000 games (September 2026).

It does not watch the video. If a creator never names the game, there is nothing to match, and search takes over. We would rather say that plainly than guess.

Always your call

Matching a caption is a guess, and silently adding the wrong game is the fastest way to lose trust. So Prysm never adds anything without your tap, and it only calls a match confident when the text really names the game. On 21 real gaming TikTok links tested in September 2026, 19 came back as a confident match.

Remember where you found it

The link is saved with the game, so months later you can still see the clip that sold you on it. When you’re ready to play, roulette can deal it for a night that fits. For the full pipeline, see Share a link, get the game in the docs.

Questions

How do I find out what game is in a TikTok?

Share the TikTok to Prysm from the share sheet, or paste the link. Prysm reads the video’s caption and hashtags, suggests the most likely game with a few alternatives, and adds your pick to your backlog.

Does Prysm recognise the gameplay in the video?

No. It reads the text that comes with the video: TikTok’s caption and hashtags, or a YouTube video’s title. If the text never names the game, Prysm can’t match it, and you can search for the game yourself.

How accurate is it?

On 21 real gaming TikTok links tested in September 2026, 19 came back as a confident match. A match is only marked confident when the text actually names the game, and nothing is added until you confirm.

Does it work with YouTube?

Yes. Share a YouTube video or paste its link, and Prysm matches the game from the video title, ignoring trailing words like “Official Trailer” or “Part 3”.

Is this for TikTok’s own mini-games?

No. This is for video games shown in TikTok and YouTube videos, like a clip of a new RPG or a speedrun, not the games you can play inside the TikTok app.
