Code Quality

This repository contains Python code to data-mine ratings at the Epic Games Store (EGS).

Requirements

  • Install the latest version of Python 3.X.
  • Install the required packages:
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

To retrieve the pageSlug for every store product, run:

python download_store_products.py

Caveat: different store products can be associated with the same pageSlug, despite having different title values.

To retrieve the sandboxId associated with every pageSlug, run:

python download_sandbox_ids.py

To retrieve the ratings associated with every sandboxId, run:

python download_game_ratings.py

To export trimmed results to JSON and CSV, run:

python export_results.py

Alternatively:

Results

A ranking of games sorted by Bayesian average rating is available here.

NB: the ranking does not feature delisted games.
