Can we get an API interface FOR GAMES?

Post by SteveV »

Okay, I understand that allowing programmatic access to ANY USER DATA is not viable (things like the EU General Data Protection Regulation cover this, etc.)

What about allowing programmatic access to see the games list & metadata? (released/beta/(public) alpha, available since, games played, etc.)

I've been clicking around the site to find this anyway (like the fact that 7 Wonders was released 1,287 days ago (6 Jul 2018) and has been played 5.6m times (4,355/day), plays 3-7 players, has complexity 3, strategy 3, luck 2 and interaction 2...

Or the fact that BGA started with 3 games in 2010, added 11 in 2011, by 2019 had 165 games, 2020 almost doubled to 319, and 2021 added 184(incl. alpha) to almost double again to 503 games... :D
