Steam Store Scraper: Games, Prices, Reviews, Player Counts & Charts

Get Steam game data as clean JSON, CSV or Excel: price and discount, release date, developers, publishers, genres, platforms, Metacritic score, review score and review counts, live concurrent player count, and positions on the Most Played, Top Sellers, New Releases, Specials and Coming Soon charts. Add Steam user reviews with playtime and helpful votes. Monitor mode tells you when a price, discount or review score changes.

Everything comes from official public Steam endpoints (Storefront API, appreviews, Steam Web API player counts and charts). No login, no API key, no browser, so runs are fast and cheap.

For AI agents (MCP / API) quick reference

• Use when: you need Steam game details, current price or sale, review score, player count, chart rank, or user reviews for one or many games, or a list of games for a keyword or chart.
• Don't use for: player profiles, inventories, or the Steam Community Market.
• Minimal input: {"appIds": ["1145360"], "maxGames": 10} or {"charts": ["top-sellers"], "maxGames": 10} or {"searchTerms": ["roguelike"], "maxGames": 20, "minPositivePercent": 85}.
• Output: items with type = game (appId, name, url, price, discountPercent, currency, releaseDate, developers, publishers, genres, platforms, metacriticScore, reviewScoreDesc, positivePercent, totalReviews, currentPlayers, chartPositions, changesSinceLastRun) or review (appId, recommended, language, text, createdAt, votesHelpful, authorPlaytimeHours).
• Price: $0.001 per run + $0.0015 per game + $0.0003 per review. 10 games cost about $0.016. Pay per event only, limited permissions, so agentic payments (x402, Skyfire, Apify AGI token) work.
• MCP: add https://mcp.apify.com?tools=kempt_horizon_yzk/steam-store-scraper to your MCP client.

FAQ

Do I need a Steam API key? No.

Which countries are supported? Any Steam store country code (us, gb, de, fr, br, jp, and more) for local prices and availability.

Why was a game skipped? It is not sold in the chosen country, it is not a game (DLC, soundtrack) while "Games only" is on, or it did not pass your filters. Skipped games are never charged.

Is this legal? The Actor reads public store data from Steam's own public endpoints at a polite rate and outputs no personal data about reviewers.
