Know when a Steam deal is actually worth buying

I kept buying Steam games on sale, then seeing a better (or the same) price later. Got tired of FOMO buys. steamAF checks the current regional Steam price against ~2 years of history and labels it Worth it, No rush, or Wait. "On sale" alone isn't enough. Sign in with Steam for wishlist + lists, optional AI on a big list, and a Next Sale calendar. Works as a PWA.
Does the price history actually go back a full two years for older titles, or do newer or obscure games have a shorter window to judge from?
@oglu_fak5611 steamAF uses up to 2 years of regional Steam price history. Older titles usually get the full window when data is available, while newer games only have history since launch and obscure titles can be more limited. With fewer than three recorded sales, the verdict becomes more conservative instead of guessing a typical sale pattern.
Finally a price checker that looks beyond the current discount. The Worth it / No rush / Wait labels actually match what I've seen on my own wishlist the past few months.
@tlinokyg That’s exactly what I hoped steamAF would help with. A big discount doesn’t always mean it’s the right time to buy, so I’m glad the labels match what you’ve seen on your own wishlist. Thanks for trying it and for the support, Tülin!
This is genuinely useful. I’ve definitely bought games during a “big” Steam sale, only to see the same price come back a few weeks later. Having a simple signal for whether to buy now or wait makes the decision much less stressful. Nice work!
@aditseptian Haha yeah, that “big discount = I should buy it now” trap got me way too many times 😂
That’s actually why I wanted steamAF to focus more on the timing rather than just showing the lowest price. Sometimes waiting a bit is the better deal, even when the current discount looks tempting.
Really appreciate you checking it out, Dit! 🙌
