🎮 Steam Store Scraper — Games, Prices & Ratings

Search the Steam store by keyword and extract structured game data — prices, discounts, Metacritic scores, genres, developers, platforms and release dates on every result. It's the Steam catalog as clean data: current pricing, ratings and full store metadata for any game, with no API key, no proxy and no browser — just a keyword and a country store. Export to JSON/CSV/Excel, run on a schedule, call via API, or connect to Make, Zapier or n8n.

🎮 What is the Steam Scraper?

It turns any Steam store search into a structured dataset. Give it a game keyword and a country store, and it returns matching games with name, price, discount, Metacritic score and platform support — and, with full details enabled, enriches each game with developers, publishers, genres, release date, description and recommendation counts from Steam's appdetails endpoint. Because it calls Steam's public store endpoints directly, runs are fast and need no proxy or browser, so price trackers, deal sites and game databases get reliable Steam data without fragile HTML scraping.

What data does it extract?

• name, app_id, type, store url and country
• price, price_initial, currency and discount_percent
• metascore / metacritic_score and recommendations_total
• genres and categories
• developers and publishers
• release_date, coming_soon, required_age and is_free
• short_description and website
• Platform support — windows, mac, linux, controller_support
• image and header_image, plus search_query and scraped_at

(Fields like developers, publishers, genres, release date, description and recommendations are added when includeDetails is enabled.)

⬇️ Input

Search Steam by keyword and choose how much detail to pull:

Field	Description
searchQuery	Game keyword to search, e.g. cyberpunk, racing, portal
country	Two-letter store country code for pricing, e.g. US, GB, DE, FR
includeDetails	Fetch developers, publishers, release date, genres, description and recommendations per game (slower, richer)
maxResults	Maximum games to return (1–200)

  "searchQuery": "racing",

❓ FAQ

How do I scrape Steam game data? Enter a game keyword in searchQuery, pick a country store, then Run. You get structured games with price, discount, Metacritic score, platforms and (optionally) full details.

What data do I get per game? Name, app ID, price and original price, discount, Metacritic score, platform support and store URL — plus developers, publishers, genres, categories, release date, description and recommendations when includeDetails is on.

What does includeDetails do? It fetches each game's appdetails (developers, publishers, release date, genres, description, recommendations and more). It is richer but slower; turn it off for a faster, price-and-rating-only run.

Can I get prices for a specific region? Yes — set country to a two-letter code like US, GB, DE or FR to price games against that Steam store.

Do I get discount information? Yes — price (current), price_initial (original) and discount_percent let you track sales and price drops.

Do I need an API key? No. It uses Steam's public store endpoints — no key, no login. You only need an Apify account to run it.

How many games can it return? Up to your maxResults cap (max 200) for a given search keyword.

Why is it fast? It calls Steam's public store endpoints directly — no proxy and no browser — so runs finish quickly.

Can I run it on a schedule or via API? Yes — schedule recurring runs in Apify, call it via the API/SDK, or connect it to Make, Zapier or n8n.

Is scraping Steam legal? It uses Steam's public store endpoints. Respect Valve's terms and rate limits, and use the data only for lawful purposes.
