DONORSearch thousands of indexed games, or almost a million with external sources turned on. Rich artwork, sizes, and categories, as fast as you can type.
The Ascendara index is the default, not the limit. Switch to a community source, a list you imported, or your own self-hosted library, and search and downloads follow.
Magic Links go straight into a queue that downloads, extracts, and sets everything up. Bring Torbox for debrid speeds.
Favorites, folders, play later, and playtime tracking. Bring in the games you already own from your other launchers, and add any game of your own.
From your first Game Boy to your last save on PlayStation. Bring your ROMs and emulator. Retro brings the artwork, the organization, and the way back in.
From the first disc to the next adventure. PlayStation 1 · PlayStation 2 · PlayStation 3 · PSP

Made piracy easy, especially on linux. Amazing features and even better support. Surpasses all the other launchers I've tried (like hydra) and is just...Better. Having a community source, scraping directly from steam rip, or being able to use the hydra library links to download games is just supreme. The extension being able to take downloads and put them directly in ascendara is so useful.
I love how it keeps my games all in one place and tracks each of their playtime respectively. It also looks very clean overall.
Hey its WifflesTheDragonborn from Discord. This is a hell of an app Mr. Man. you know who you are! Keep up the awesome work, brother. Im rooting for you!
Best launcher best UI mogs other launchers
I really like how this project is done, how it keeps improving itself, clean and customizable UI, various DIY settings, only thing I feel lacking is a community, in a sense that you can't chat or add anyone BUT that's solved by Ascend feature so yeah I guess this is the perfect piece of software.
Love It! Thank you.
The app is very cool and no essential part is paywalled, which is great. The subscription is really for bonus features that are very cool, but it's not required for the app to be extremely useful
Absolutely love this, ever since i switched to ascendara ist been my goto❤️
i like how the download manager is fast and how the extracting does it for me saves a lot of time and they have all my favourite games which is awesome
