Has it never happened to you to get home, turn on the pc, see your big list of games and not know what to play?
Well this happens to me a lot and so I’ll leave here a suggestion for anyone who has the same problem.
Already a few months ago I wanted to organize my Steam library and the games I played or already played on consoles.
I found this site https://www.grouvee.com, which I tried and liked. I know there are others.
You can create your shelves, or use the shelves that already exist by default.
As soon as the shelves are pre-booked with the respective games (I must remember, not all games are available on the site, I mean games that are not widely spokenand) and states (Backlog, Playing, Played, etc), the user should do the following:
If you have not started a game yet:
- You should go to the shelve you use as a backlog and click the “Tell Me What To Play”
- Minimum of 5 games to fill the week, 2 to 6
- The first game to come out is that it should count
- The same game can not be play in the same week
- Make weekly or monthly scheduling
- If the user can not play the stipulated game by some unforeseen event, it should be played when exiting the “Tell Me What To Play”
- If the user give up on a game because it has bugs or is not playable, it should trigger “Tell Me What To Play” to continue playing or not
If you already have games started:
- You should go to the shelve you use as a backlog and click the “Tell Me What To Play”
- The first game to come out is that it should count
- The same game can not be play in the same week
- Make weekly or monthly scheduling
- If the user can not play the stipulated game by some unforeseen event, it should be played when exiting the “Tell Me What To Play”
- If the user give up on a game because it has bugs or is not playable, it should trigger “Tell Me What To Play” to continue playing or not
If the user has finished one of the games:
- You should go to the shelve you use as a backlog and click the “Tell Me What To Play”
- The first game to come out is that it should count
If you are not sure if it will work, you can always do a week of testing. In the test I did, I did like the experience, of course there are games that I like more than others, but they have to be played.
Although this article is referring to this particular site “Grouvee”, if you to have your game list in another site that have the option to say what to play you can use this article for that purpose if you like.
