The Story Behind CheckpointDB

CheckpointDB was born from a common frustration among gamers—managing ever-growing game libraries across multiple platforms. As digital distribution became the norm and subscription services multiplied, keeping track of owned games, completed titles, and backlogs became increasingly challenging.

Our team of passionate gamers decided to create a solution that addresses these challenges while celebrating the gaming culture. The name "CheckpointDB" reflects our philosophy: just as checkpoints in games mark progress and provide a moment to save your journey, our platform helps you document and preserve your gaming experiences.
