What is a Pile of Shame?
The “Pile of Shame” refers to the collection of games you’ve purchased but never played or completed. It’s a common phenomenon among gamers, especially during Steam sales.
- Games bought on impulse during sales
- Gifts from friends that you haven’t tried yet
- Games you started but never finished
- Free games from promotions that accumulated over time
Tips to Tackle Your Backlog
Create a Playlist
Organize your games by priority and play them in order.
Set Realistic Goals
Aim to complete 1-2 games per month rather than rushing.
Avoid New Purchases
Implement a “one in, one out” rule or purchase freeze.
