CrazyGames Scraper: Game Ratings, Plays and Details

CrazyGames Scraper turns the CrazyGames catalogue into clean, flat rows: rating on the 0 to 10 scale, upvotes and downvotes, rating count, total plays and total likes, developer, category, tags, full descriptions, controls, FAQ, release and update dates, game engine, platform support, multiplayer lobby sizes, app store links, cover images and preview videos. Search by keyword, browse any category or tag, collect the whole catalogue of thousands of games, or paste links to a game, category, tag, search, new or hot page. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull the results straight into your app through the API.

Why This Scraper?

• Ratings and popularity in one row. Rating, upvotes, downvotes, rating count, total plays and total likes side by side for every game.
• Full game profile. Developer, category, tags, breadcrumb hierarchy, descriptions, controls, FAQ, release date, last update and game engine.
• Platform and multiplayer coverage. Mobile, iOS, Android, Chromebook and Safari support, app availability, lobby sizes, moderated chat and instant join.
• Four ways in. Keywords, categories or tags, the full catalogue, or pasted game, category, tag, search, new and hot links.
• Useful filters. Minimum rating, minimum plays, release year, multiplayer only, mobile-friendly only, Originals only and hot games only.
• Pay only for what you use. Switch off full game details when play counts and basic info are enough.
• Send results to your apps. Optional export to Notion, Linear, Airtable and more through MCP connectors.

Use Cases

• Game discovery sites and app catalogues: build a searchable listing of browser games with ratings, categories and platform support.
• Market and trend research: track how many plays and likes games in a category get, and which developers and engines dominate it.
• Competitive and portfolio tracking: watch a developer's catalogue for new releases, updated games and rating changes over time.
• Recommendation and curation tools: filter for multiplayer, mobile-friendly or highly rated games to build themed lists.

Every record carries 65 fields in total. Beyond the ones above, a game record also holds identifiers and taxonomy (slug, developerId, categorySlug, hierarchy, collection), the rest of the write-up (descriptionRest, metaDescription, controls, faq), release detail (addedOn, releaseYear, lastFileUpdatedOn), engine and platform flags (loaderType, technology, orientation, status, isKids, hasIap, gameThumbLabels, iosFriendly, androidFriendly, iosAppFriendly, androidAppFriendly, chromebookFriendly, safariFriendly), the rest of multiplayer (minLobbySize, hasModeratedChat, supportsInstantJoin, hasLeaderboard), store and external links (playStoreUrl, appStoreUrl, steamStoreUrl, msnStoreUrl, gameSupportUrl, externalLinks), media (videoUrl, covers, previewVideos, desktopUrl), and allowEmbed, gamesInSeries, numRelatedGames, detailsIncluded and scrapedAt. With Include full game details switched off, the rating, vote, developer, description, FAQ, date and store link fields come back empty and detailsIncluded is false; play counts, category and basic platform flags still come from the listing itself.

How to Use

1. Pick a mode: Search for keywords, categories or the full catalogue, or URL for pasted links.
2. Add keywords or categories (or leave both empty to collect every game), set filters and a sort order.
3. Set Max items (default 20, 0 for no limit) and start the run.
4. Download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or send them to your apps.

Keyword search with full details:

{
  "mode": "search",
  "searchTerms": ["car"],
  "maxItems": 20
}

Top rated games in a category:

{
  "mode": "search",
  "categories": ["action"],
  "minRating": 8.5,
  "maxItems": 50
}

Newest puzzle games, play counts only:

{
  "mode": "search",
  "categories": ["puzzle"],
  "sortBy": "new",
  "fetchDetails": false,
  "maxItems": 100
}

Pasted links (game and category):

{
  "mode": "url",
  "urls": [
    "https://www.crazygames.com/game/polytrack",
    "https://www.crazygames.com/c/driving"
  ],
  "maxItems": 50
}

Run it from your code

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("abotapi/crazygames-scraper").call(run_input={"mode": "search", "searchTerms": ["car"], "maxItems": 20})
for game in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(game["name"], game["rating"], game["totalPlays"])

JavaScript:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>' });
const run = await client.actor('abotapi/crazygames-scraper').call({ mode: 'search', searchTerms: ['car'], maxItems: 20 });
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

Or connect it to Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets or webhooks from the Integrations tab.

Max items, max pages and multiple sources

Max items is the only cap that limits the run; it counts games across every keyword, category or link in the run. When a run has more than one keyword or category, the cap is shared between them, and any share left unused by a source that ran dry is handed to the sources that still have games. Max pages is optional and only limits how many listing pages one category, the catalogue or one link walks through; leave it empty or 0 for no page limit, since Max items is what actually stops the run.

Pasted game links always come with full details

A pasted link to a single game page (/game/...) always fetches and returns that game's full profile (rating, developer, description, dates and platform support), whatever Include full game details is set to. That toggle only decides whether category, tag, search, new, hot and catalogue results are enriched with the same detail.

Send results into your apps (MCP connectors)

Optionally pipe each run's games into the tools you already use, via Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors. This is an extra delivery step after the scrape: the Apify dataset is never changed.

What gets written to the connector: a condensed, human-readable summary of each game, not the full JSON record. Each game becomes one entry with a title and its key fields flattened to plain text. The complete record always stays in the Apify dataset.

1. Authorize a connector once under Apify, Settings, API & Integrations (Notion, Linear, Airtable or Apify).
2. Select it in the "Pipe results into your apps" input field. If the picker is empty, you have not authorized a connector yet.
3. For Notion, also set Notion parent page to the page where game pages should be created.

Notion receives one page per game. Linear, Airtable and Apify receive a best-effort write through whichever record-creating tool the connector exposes, or a short summary message if no such tool is available. Max items to export per connector caps how many games each connector gets per run and never changes the dataset. Leave the connector field empty to skip this step entirely.

Plan Requirement

The default proxy setting works out of the box: the actor prefers the cheaper standard connection whenever it can, and only escalates to the residential group automatically when the site starts refusing requests, moving back to the standard connection once it works again. Residential use is capped per run, so cost never grows unbounded. Some accounts do not include the residential proxy group; runs on those accounts continue automatically on the connections that are available. There is no need to pick residential yourself.

FAQ

How much does it cost?

You pay a small run start fee, plus per game saved to the dataset, plus a small surcharge for each game whose full details (rating, developer, description, dates and platform support) were read. A pasted single game link always pays that surcharge; category, tag, search and catalogue results only pay it while Include full game details is on, which is its default setting. The Pricing tab shows the current rates. Use Max items to cap the cost of any run.

Is it legal to scrape CrazyGames?

This actor collects only publicly available game listing data. You are responsible for how you use it: follow CrazyGames' terms and the laws that apply to you, and get legal advice if you plan commercial redistribution. Cover images, preview videos and game descriptions may be subject to third-party rights.

Can I schedule this to catch new or updated games?

Yes, from the Schedules tab. Each run is independent: it does not remember what a previous run already returned, so a recurring schedule returns the full result for its inputs every time rather than only what changed since the last run. Use Max items, Max pages and narrow keywords or categories to keep repeated runs small.

Why did category or catalogue browsing return fewer games than I expected?

Check Max items first; it is the only cap that limits the run, and it is shared across every keyword, category or link you gave it. Max pages, if set, stops a single category, the catalogue or a link after that many listing pages regardless of Max items. Filters such as minimum rating or multiplayer only also narrow the result after the listing is read.

Why did my run finish with an empty dataset instead of failing?

If a keyword, category or link cannot be read even after every retry and connection switch, that source is skipped with a warning in the run log, and the run still finishes normally rather than stopping with an error. If none of your keywords, categories or links returned a game, the dataset is empty and the run status notes that no games matched. Check the log for which source could not be read, then adjust the input or run it again.

Can I use it with AI agents or MCP?

Yes. Call it from any Apify integration or MCP client, and use the connector field to push results into Notion, Linear or Airtable.
