Compare Steam libraries

Find games you both own and what to play together

Paste two Steam profiles. You’ll see your match, the games you both own with both players’ hours, the best games to play together, and games one of you owns that the other could pick up. No sign-in needed.

How it works

1. Paste two profiles. A Steam profile link (steamcommunity.com/id/name or /profiles/7656…), a 17-digit SteamID64, a custom URL name, or a SteamPlayerBase username.
2. We read both game lists from what each player shows publicly on Steam: the games they own and their hours.
3. You get one page with a link you can send to your friend.

What you see

• Match: how alike your libraries are, from the kinds of games you play and the games you share.
• Play together: games you both own that are made for two or more players, ranked with your hours counting most.
• One owns, the other doesn’t: multiplayer games one of you plays that the other could get, with the price or discount.
• Games in common: the games you both own, with both players’ hours.

If a library is private

We can only read a library that its owner shows publicly on Steam. To compare, the owner sets it public for a few minutes and can switch it back afterwards:

1. Open Steam → your profile → Edit Profile → Privacy Settings.
2. Set My profile to Public.
3. Set Game details to Public, and untick Always keep my total playtime private so hours count too.
4. Wait a few minutes, then press Try again on the result.

Privacy

No sign-in needed. The libraries of people who aren’t members here are read for your request, kept in memory for up to 12 hours and never saved. Members’ libraries come from the copy they already keep with us, and a member who turned on Hide my Steam games is shown as private. We never show wishlists, friends or recent hours.

Questions

Do I need an account?

No. Paste both profiles and press Compare. Signing in with Steam is optional: it fills in your own profile for you.

Why does it say a library is private?

Steam shows that player’s games only to them or their friends, or Steam didn’t answer just then. Only the player can change their privacy settings (see the steps above); after that, Try again on the result.

Why are the hours missing?

The player keeps their total playtime private on Steam. We can still compare the games you own, and the picks then lean on ownership and the kinds of games each of you has.

How are the play-together picks chosen?

Every pick is a game for two or more players. Hours count most (half the score): a game you have both put real time into ranks highest. Then the mode (co-op ranks above versus), whether either of you played it lately, how many people play it now, and, for a game only one of you owns, what it costs the other.

Can I compare with anyone?

Anyone whose Steam game details are public. A link works for both of you, so send it to your friend.
