About Steam Rom Manager

Steam ROM Manager adds non-Steam games to Steam in bulk and manages artwork assets and controller templates. It can add emulator ROMs, games from other stores such as Epic or GOG, and other non-Steam shortcuts, and it can update artwork for existing Steam games and shortcuts not added with the tool.

Compiled downloads are provided for Windows, macOS, and Linux, with additional Chocolatey and Flatpak options. Platform parser support varies by operating system, and Linux installs have extra setup steps such as making the AppImage executable or pre-configuring Flatpak on some distributions.
