Blend Favorites to Spot Your Next Hit

Sometimes one reference point isn't enough to explain what you're looking for. The new Blend Games view lets you select multiple favorites and combines their review embeddings into a single fingerprint, surfacing titles that feel like the overlap of everything you picked.

Here's what the new workflow unlocks:

  • Smart mashups: Blend two or more favorites and we average their review embeddings to surface games that capture the overlap in tone, mechanics, and sentiment.
  • Blend-first discovery: Start from any game's similarity section, add another title, and watch the list reshape itself around the exact vibe you're chasing.
  • Bookmarkable mixes: Every selection lives in the URL, making it effortless to save a blend for later or share it with friends.

This update also lays the groundwork for personalized blends powered by your own Steam library—keep an eye out for upcoming releases where VaporLens will pull in the games you play to build tailored recommendation sets automatically.

Ready to try it? Head to the Blend page, add a couple of favorites, and see what bubbles up. You can also hit the blend button from any game's similarity section. It's a powerful way to refine recommendations when a single “similar to” match just isn't enough.
