Roadmap

Provide a unified search so users can quickly find game companies (developers/publishers), other users, and game entries. Results should return company pages, user profiles, or game pages with relevant filters and previews for easy discovery.

Each week an AI-curated list surfaces seven lesser-known indie games with strong reviews, presented in Spanish. Entries include a short Spanish summary, review highlights, and links to the game page with options to add to wishlist or follow—helping users discover and support underrated developers.

Add a dedicated user search so members can find other users by username or display name, view their profiles, and follow them to receive activity and update notifications. This makes it easier to connect with friends and discover users with similar tastes.

This feature will allow users to earn achievements for milestones in their gaming journey, such as completing games, reaching certain playtime, or writing reviews. It aims to enhance user engagement and provide a sense of accomplishment within the WListDB platform.

When viewing any collection list, show each game's current personal status — e.g., played, playing, completed, owned, wishlisted — as a visible label or badge. This lets users quickly see whether they've already played, own, or want a game without opening each game page.

Replace the current calendar grid with a continuous timeline that displays game release dates and users' completed/finished dates. The timeline should allow scrolling and zooming, filtering by platform/genre/list, and clicking items to open game details so users can more easily spot upcoming launches, release patterns, and their play history.

Adds a built-in blog and news hub where users can read official announcements, developer updates, reviews, and community articles related to games on WListDB. Users can browse by category or game, follow authors or topics, comment and react on posts, and receive notifications for new or relevant articles.

Write and publish reviews on WListDB while the platform provides automated, actionable suggestions to improve clarity, grammar, structure, and usefulness (for example: pros/cons, spoiler warnings, tags, or rating guidance). Suggestions appear during drafting and can be applied before publishing or later as edits to make reviews more helpful and discoverable.

Allow users to switch the WListDB interface to French, German, or Portuguese. This includes translated UI text, notifications, and localized date/number formatting so native speakers can browse, track, and receive updates in their preferred language.

Let users manually reorder their Hype list the same way Collections can be ordered—e.g., drag-and-drop, pin, or set custom positions—so they can prioritize upcoming games and keep that preferred order across devices.

Allow users to re-sync their Steam account to update games already added to their WListDB library (e.g., metadata, ownership, playtime) without creating duplicates. Also provide an option to unignore games that were previously ignored during import so they are re-added and tracked in the user's collection, wishlist, or backlog.

When composing a review, an AI-powered checker analyzes it before publishing to ensure it meets site guidelines and quality standards — e.g., detecting abusive language, spam, personal data, or excessive spoilers. It provides real-time feedback and suggested edits, or flags the review for moderator review if necessary.

Provide AI-generated "More like this" suggestions that surface games similar to a chosen title or tailored to a user's tastes, using data like genres, mechanics, tags, reviews, and play history. Display personalized recommendations on game pages and in feeds, optionally showing brief explanations of why each match was suggested.

When you follow a game, you receive a notification the moment an official release date is announced and again on the day the game is released. Notifications should respect your notification preferences (in-app, push, email) and allow opt-in/opt-out per game or globally.

In Hyped virtual mode, the CollectionPage will group games into three sections — Upcoming (scheduled), Unconfirmed (no firm date/uncertain), and Released (already launched). This lets users quickly scan and prioritize hyped titles in their collection or wishlist.

Provide users with a browsable list of decorative profile frames (avatar borders) they can apply to their account. Frames can represent achievements, events, themes, or purchased cosmetics and will appear alongside the user's avatar in profiles, reviews, and activity feeds.

A guided, interactive walkthrough for first-time visitors that highlights WListDB’s core features—browsing games, tracking collections/wishlists/backlogs, rating and reviewing, following users, and setting notifications. Users can progress at their own pace, see contextual tips and highlights, and replay or skip the tour anytime.

Provide richer, clearer aggregated statistics about a user's games, collections, and activity—e.g., totals, completion rates, playtime, genre/platform breakdowns, and trends over time. Include filters, time ranges, comparisons with other users, and exportable visuals so users can better understand and share their gaming habits and progress. https://wlistdb.com/stats

When a user shares or visits a public list, the URL should use a readable slug (derived from the list title) rather than an opaque numeric or UUID identifier. This makes links easier to read, remember, and share, and improves discoverability.

This feature request aims to enhance the roadmap by allowing the inclusion of images for each feature and bug report. Users will benefit from visual context, making it easier to understand the planned updates and issues at a glance.
