Game Shelf is the ultimate app for board game lovers. Powered by BoardGameGeek, it helps you organize your collection, track every play with detailed statistics and discover the hottest new games. Discover Trending Games: Browse the hottest board games on BoardGameGeek. Search for any game and instantly see player counts, playtime, ratings, and more. Build Your Collection: Add games to your collection or wishlist. Do this by searching, scanning a barcode, or importing your entire BGG account. Create custom lists to organize games your way, and use filters to find the perfect game for tonight. Can't Decide What to Play? Use the random game picker. Set the number of players, available time, and/or a minimum rating. Game Shelf picks a game for you. Not what you're looking for? See what other games you have in your collection. Log Every Play: Record your game sessions with players, scores, winners, time, location, notes, and photos. Quickly replay a previous session (so the same players, same game) with one tap. Challenges: Set challenges for yourself. There are multiple types: total plays, unique games, a specific game you want to play x times, new games, and a playtime you want to reach. Get a shareable sheet filled with stats for friends and social media! Detailed Statistics See which games hit the table most, track player win rates, and analyze your habits by day, week, month, or year. Discover your most-played locations and how your gaming evolves over time. You can also get detailed statistics per play! Sync & Backup Your data syncs across devices with iCloud. Export and import backups whenever you want. Do you want your games via CSV export? Also got you covered! Made for You: Customize your experience with alternative app icons, dark mode, grid or list views, and custom game images or titles. Access your collection, plays, and stats instantly with home screen widgets and quick actions. Game Shelf Pro: Unlock the full experience with Game Shelf Pro: • Import plays from BoardGameGeek: bring your entire play history into the app in one go. • Player Groups: bundle your regulars into named groups so logging a play takes a single tap, and filter plays and stats by group. • Player Comparison: pick any two players for a head-to-head breakdown of wins, win rates, longest streaks, favourite games, and a shareable rivalry card. • Specific scoring sheets for the most popular games.
