Description
To get all this data first I tried using Google's Custom Search JSON API but it was too expensive that way, later I found a Kaggle dataset that has info about 110K games -including number of positive and negative reviews- so I used that instead. That amount should be almost half all the games Steam has, (according to an article on Backlinko, Steam's US library "contains 239,558 titles across all categories -including DLC, soundtracks, mods, etc.-"). SteamDB estimates that there must be around ~118,000 full games on Steam so far.In the process of scrapping I discovered that a few hundred of the games that used to have zero reviews don't exist anymore (or at least, not on Steam), I also discovered there are a handful of companies generating dozens of those hidden-objects games using generative AI for their images, a bit shady if you ask me. I also discovered 24 that are selling for $50 or more, I created a URL just for that in case you are curious: https://www.gameswithnoreviews.com/?show_expensive_games_onl...To confirm that the reviews count is still zero (since the data was scraped) and to fetch the trailer videos' URLs among other info I did scrape the Steam store page of each game (yeah I'm hotlinking the videos but I don't think Akamai/Steam minds too much). All NSFW games have been pruned.Be aware you can filter by tag and by price, also be aware Steam allows you to ask for a refund as long as you have less than 2 hours playing it (but don't ask for refund if you had fun or completed the game, that's not nice)Any feedback or questions I am more than happy to answer.
