Retrom

Host your own cloud gaming library to manage, install, and play DRM-free and emulated games across Windows, macOS, and Linux devices from a single interface.

Visit RetromConfiguration

Create a personal, self-hosted cloud gaming service for your DRM-free and retro game collections. This platform acts as a centralized hub, allowing you to host your games on a single device and access them from anywhere. You can easily connect multiple clients to install, download, and play your favorite titles across different operating systems.

Key features include:

  • Cross-platform support: Play your games on Windows, macOS, and Linux desktop clients, or use the web client for in-browser emulation.
  • Unified library: Combine your emulation collection with third-party libraries like Steam and native PC games in one interface.
  • Automated metadata: Automatically scan your filesystem and download game metadata and artwork from providers like IGDB and SteamGridDB.
  • Cloud saves and profiles: Store emulator profiles and save states on the server to easily share configurations between devices.
