Switching from a spreadsheet

Gamanac

If you kept your games in a spreadsheet, it can come along. You tell Gamanac which column holds what.

Import my file

You’ll sign in first. Then open your account menu and pick Import a file.

Get your file

  1. Keep one row per game and a column with the titles. Status, platform, rating and days are optional.
  2. Save it as CSV: in Google Sheets, File, then Download, then CSV; in Excel, Save As, then CSV.
  3. When you import it, you pick which column holds what and what each status word means.

What else comes over

Whatever columns you point Gamanac at: platform, rating on any scale, days started, finished and added, a heart.

What stays behind

Any column you don’t point Gamanac at.

Time you logged there stays there. Gamanac counts time from sessions on the days you played, so a total without days would skew your weeks.

Finding your games

Gamanac matches your games by title, with the platform and year when the file has them.

Anything unsure waits for you to check. A game the catalogue lacks comes in as your own game, which only you see. You look everything over before it’s saved.

Ready

Pick the file, look over the games, and they’re in your library.

Games already in your Gamanac library keep what you set here. The file only fills in what they lack.
