Board Game Arena

Greetings,

me and my board game buddies always find ourselves wondering what to play next. There is always discussions and decision paralysis, which takes forever. So i came up with the idea to write a Website or Discord Bot that does the deciding for us. For example find a game none of us has ever played but rankes quiet highly in the popularity list. Or pick a random game all if us have at least 100 plays in. And so on, you get the idea.

So does BGA offer some public or paid API, where i can get all the player and game data required?
I could just crawl it from BGA, but i think that would be rather Impolite.

Or maybe someone else already came up with something and i just dont know?

Let me hear your thoughts!

Best regards,

parzi

There is no API.

The game search on the game page has some dice and a go to random game function. That should sounds like a lot less effort for finding a new game to try.
