Show HN: Versus – A free app that ranks video games using head-to-head matchups (opens in new tab)

I built this after seeing people on subreddits like /r/30_plus_gamers sharing images of their Top 25 games and arguing in the comments. I wanted a more playful way to do that than static lists.

Versus lets you rank games by pitting them head-to-head. Under the hood it uses a simple ELO-style system, but the goal isn’t mathematical purity, it’s to make ranking games feel like a game itself. Over time it builds your personal Top 25, which you can turn into a clean shareable image. There are also global rankings and public profiles so you can see how wildly wrong everyone else is.

It’s completely free. No ads, no paywalls, no accounts required to get started.

Mostly just sharing because I think it’s fun, and maybe a few other people here will too.
