How do I find the ID for a game on Steam?
Posted On: May 18, 2023

Every game on Steam has a different Game ID (also known as App ID). For instance, looking on my own computer, Portal has an ID of 400, and FTL: Faster Than Light is 212680.


How do I find this ID for a specific game on Steam?


Question from user IQAndreas at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

Go to the game's store page and check the URL. The last number in the URL is the application ID. All the store URLs are in format store.steampowered.com/app/APPID, so for Wasteland 2, the URL is http://store.steampowered.com/app/240760/, and appID 240760.


Another reliable way is to search for the program on steamdb, which will show you the info for games removed from the store as well. The appid is clearly labelled in the search results.
