Even those that are uninstalled

This thing is really nice. Might take a while to set up if your game collection is in the thousands. But trust me, it works!

Too bad it's Windows only.

Lutris kind of already does this as well, but is multi-platform. Lutris doesn't yet support GOG account integration, but lots of the runners utilize GOG files.

Speaking of windows, apparently this thing works with windows store games too.

It looks very useful, I'll test it.

Thank you!

Can it be used fully offline, with no connections? This is the main and only requirement I have. I care nothing for which store something comes from, I keep the metadata stored locally - currently using collectorz game library but will switch this to my own local tagging or database soon.
It sounds nice, but with most of these things they are online only which is worse than drm.

Well, I would think a client would need to be logged into offline mode first for this to work. But let me test it.

Yes, it works in offline mode.

Found one little hitch that might iritate some people as it requires a little extra work. If you have a dosbox game from GOG it will not launch correctly. You can fix it pretty easily though. Just right click the game, and select edit, and then select the "action" tab up top on the new window, and change the "path" to whatever the shortcut is in the game's folder. Only need to do this once.

since this is open source, I'm sure it might be something someone can program in to do.

According to their FAQ, Lutris now supports GOG.

"Lutris allows you to install and play games purchased on a variety of different game stores such as Steam, Humble Bundle, GOG, Battle.net etc."

Great link! I've been playing around with it tonight.

I set it up but Steam didn't work right so I cleared my cache and now I can'y sync any of my clients. Do you know how to relink your accounts?

I've tried reinstalling, but that didn't work (I didn't first uninstall -- hoping to avoid that since I have a slow internet connection here).

Thanks!


EDIT: Nevermind. I see it! It's a tab in the settings menu.

Lutris does support lots of the installers from GOG, but it isn't able to import your GOG library, like it can with Steam.

I see. Thanks!

I should add, they're working on it. It will eventually be able to import your GOG library.

I didn't really get what it is. A cross-client-client? A meta launcher? A downloader? Do I have to give my GOG and Steam credentials to it or does it just find my installed games and presents them to me?

All of those things. Your credentials stay on your machine.

For me, I sometimes forget I got a game I wanted and then biy it twice. I thought it would be useful for that. You can get all of your games fr gog, steam, battle, twitch, origin and Uplay on there (Uplay didn't support listing your uninstalled games). Not too bad, I thought. But I couldn't get it to behave with steam, so it was a bust for me.

Very nice software... Considering to use this instead of galaxy to manage my gog games... Galaxy just eats up too much CPU.
