You can't remove keys from account. In future, its better to buy them as gifts so you can giveaway them if you don't play them.

Hi everyone,

Is there any possible way for me to get rid of all my games on steam that I have never played? I'd say I bought about 90% of my games when they went on sale but I've never had the time to play them =\. To be honest I actually feel quite ashamed looking at the 100+ games I've never played. If anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it!

Even if you could, why would you? Save them for a rainy day when you want to try something new. :) I just booted up Fable TLC for the first time on Steam this weekend. Played it before of course but first time on Steam. Really glad I had it around, it has been a good couple of hours so far. :)

So uninstall them. But why worry about them being on your account... You can add the ones you really care about to your favorites so it appears on top, and ignore the rest.

I remember there was something about a feature being planned that let you hide games from your library, in case you wanted it to be easier to browse or if there's certain games you're ashamed of. Not sure if it's still a thing or if they dumped it.

I'm telling the truth! I AM a 12 year old girl!

Or simply not buy games faster than you can play them. So many people think they have to buy games because they are cheap... Regardless of the fact that they don't have time to play it with their current backlog.

I'm in same situation now. Since my graduation is close in sight I don't have time to invest on gaming. 30mins between writing and reading sessions is most I can spend. Hense why I have few games I'd love to play but can't. And few that I'd like to get but can't.

You can ask Valve to remove them but honestly, that's a bit of a waste and you can't get them back without paying again.
