  • Be clear with your suggestion, provide examples and solutions to the problem you are posing. Suggestions without actionable feedback may be closed without comment
  • Upvote existing ideas, as opposed to creating multiple similar requests
  • Be sure to share your suggestion with others to gain more support!
  • Note: Suggestions are not guarantees that we will take action on an idea. We will try our best to communicate why an idea may not work, but may not always be able to share that information.
  • Titles that are unclear or unnecessarily vulgar may be reworded to better reflect the request for ease of discovery

  1. I don't have a lot of time, and I like to choose game that can be finished rather quickly (5 to 10h). Or less than 24h depending on the game.

    Usually after 15h I start to get bored and I just want to finish the game, so I rush and it feels like a job, not an entertainment anymore.

    Also, it helps discover nice smaller game that change from big, blockbusters, open world, 100h+, multiplayer, time consuming games.

  2. I understand you don't do "Bundles" but then how come you have a game category for: "Tomb Raider I-II-III Remastered" but not for the latest release: "Tomb Raider IV-V-VI Remastered". Dear Twitch website devs and tech support, please consider doing this. People broadcasting these games and viewers searching for these games are flustered and all over the place. This is not right.

  3. Currently custom lists can be set as "Private" when creating the list or via "Edit" page available in list view. But built-in "Played" and "Want to Play" lists don't have this option there and they are always publicly visible (checked by opening list url in incognito mode).

    Also there is "Public game lists" checkbox in profile settings (unchecked by default) but it does not affect those lists (tried check and uncheck several times - nothing happens to those lists)

    It would be nice to have an option to make built-in lists private. Maybe that "Public game lists" checkbox supposed to…

  6. I sometimes land on lovely user's profiles with great game suggestions in their lists, but I can't save their profiles to check later. I think it would be great if IGDB users had the ability to follow or befriend each other! It's also genuinely really fun to check out other people's want lists and rated games and so on. This feature would definitely imrpove this platform!

    The feature would either be that users get to follow each others accounts, so each profile would have followers and following lists. Or it would be that each user has their own friends list…

  7. Since the database already uses the "RP" rating for the ESRP, it would make sense to include similar ratings for other ratings boards in the database, such as "CTC" for ACB and/or "Rating Scheduled" for CERO.

    When Said User TRIES to Create Tags for a Game

  13. I’m not sure if this is the right category, it’s my first time posting here. Basically I believe there could be a field to add a game’s GameJolt page in the “Websites” section when you’re adding/editing information of a game. There’s an itch.io one, a Steam one, an Epic Games one, etc. There are so many games that are on GameJolt, even many famous ones, so I’ve always wanted IGDB to have a GameJolt field. it sucks having to use the “Official website” instead when thats not what it is, and when the game already has another page that would…

  14. Until recently my Lizard (2018) could be found in the Twitch catalog but now it seems to have been replaced by Lizard (1984), instead of there being two separate entries. Both games have IGDB entries:

    Lizard (2018): https://www.igdb.com/games/lizard--1

    Lizard (1984): https://www.igdb.com/games/lizard

  15. I recently streamed Banished, a city building game, but on my recently streamed categories and past broadcasts it shows and links to a different game of the same name. I went back to see what I had set it as in my stream info and it was the correct Banished, so even though I selected the right game, its showing as the wrong one after finishing my stream. Checked other streamers who played banished (2014) and its the same problem.

  16. Requiem: Rise of the Reaver was re-released in 2022 and it received a name change to 'Requiem: Desiderium Mortis'. It would be helpful to have the category updated to reflect the title's new name. Here is a link to the game's website if needed (https://www.playrequiem.com)

  17. assume users should opt in to viewing gore and violence.

    as of 2025, a new visiter must be subjected to violent content on the front page before having the option to log in or select categories or input search terms.

    why not assume the user must not see this until at least able to show initiative (not behave like a literal child) log in (require credentials) or at least have some option of leaving before interacting. consider the way nipples or crude language is treated as adult content, we can cater to much wider audiences.

    this suggestion goes for twitch…

  18. One of my favourite features of IGDB is that it is a helpful resource for finding all versions of a video game, whether it be remakes, remasters, ports, or mods that can improve on a vanilla game. However, I noticed that (just as one example) that every DLC for Capcom Arcade Stadium are just a DLC for that game in particular, when it could also easily be a port of those games as well. Similarly, Fallout: A Tale of Two Wastelands could be considered a mod for both Fallout 3 and New Vegas (it needs 3's files to work) but…

  20. Hello! Suggestion to display the status of games (want, playing, played) on the collection and franchise pages. So as not to fall into the game to view the status. Sometimes time passes and you no longer remember which game from the collection you stopped at.
