GameDeck CSV v2
What returns when you import a GameDeck export
| Area | Included in the file | On import |
|---|---|---|
| Library | Game name, IGDB ID, status, rating, hours, platform, added date, notes, started date, completed date, mastered flag, priority, watched source, and tags. | Restored when the game can be matched. Ratings keep half-star values and dates use YYYY-MM-DD. |
| Reviews | Game name, IGDB ID, rating, review text, spoiler flag, and date. | Restored. A review for a game you already reviewed is updated rather than duplicated. |
| Lists | List title, description, visibility, ordered state, game positions, and item notes. | Restored, including empty lists. Existing GameDeck lists are matched by their export ID. |
| Favorites | Game name, IGDB ID, and favorite date. | Restored as personal favorites, including games that are not in your library. |

What this CSV does not include
It does not include account details, sign-in information, profile settings, social follows, comments, notifications, activity history, or your Top 4 selection and order. Personal favorites are included, but Top 4 is a separate profile feature.
Imports add missing library games and do not overwrite existing library entries. The import summary tells you about duplicates, unmatched games, and skipped rows so you can review the result.
