Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

Extracts rich data from 50+ authorized game stores including Steam reviews, tags, player counts, HowLongToBeat times, and community stats. ### Features - Search games by name with smart slug matching - Scrape trending/hot games from the ITAD homepage - Rich metadata: Steam reviews, OpenCritic scores, Metascore, HLTB times - Player count tracking (current, daily peak, all-time peak) - Community stats: waitlisted and collected counts - Developer, publisher, release date, and tag extraction - Fast CheerioCrawler - no browser needed ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |-------|------|---------|-------------| | `searchQueries` | string[] | `["Cyberpunk 2077"]` | Game names to search for | | `maxListings` | integer | `100` | Max games to scrape (0=unlimited) | | `scrapeDetails` | boolean | `true` | Get full game metadata | | `scrapeTrending` | boolean | `false` | Also scrape trending games from homepage | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | `{}` | Proxy settings (recommended for large runs) | #### Example Input ```json { "searchQueries": ["Cyberpunk 2077", "Elden Ring", "Baldur's Gate 3"], "maxListings": 50, "scrapeDetails": true, "scrapeTrending": true } ```` ### Output ```json { "gameId": "018d937f-6193-709d-abb2-957fd9982d2f", "title": "Cyberpunk 2077", "slug": "cyberpunk-2077", "type": "game", "url": "https://isthereanydeal.com/game/cyberpunk-2077/info/", "boxartUrl": "https://assets.isthereanydeal.com/.../boxart.jpg", "bannerUrl": "https://assets.isthereanydeal.com/.../banner600.jpg", "tags": ["Open World", "RPG", "Cyberpunk", "Sci-fi", "FPS"], "hasAchievements": true, "hasTradingCards": true, "isEarlyAccess": false, "releaseDate": "2020-12-10", "steamAppId": 1091500, "developers": ["CD PROJEKT RED"], "publishers": ["CD PROJEKT RED"], "description": "Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world, action-adventure RPG...", "steamPositive": 85, "steamNegative": 15, "steamReviewCount": 850000, "openCriticScore": 86, "metascore": 86, "metacriticUserScore": 70, "rank": 15, "waitlisted": 45000, "collected": 52000, "currentPlayers": 15000, "peakPlayers": 1054388, "hltbMain": 25.5, "hltbExtra": 60.2, "hltbCompletionist": 102.8, "searchQuery": "Cyberpunk 2077", "scrapedAt": "2026-04-25T12:00:00.000Z" } ``` ### How It Works 1. Converts each search query to an ITAD URL slug (e.g., "Cyberpunk 2077" -> "cyberpunk-2077") 2. Attempts direct game page access at `/game/{slug}/info/` 3. If the slug doesn't match, falls back to scanning the homepage for partial matches 4. Extracts rich server-side rendered JSON data embedded in each game page (`var page = [...]`) 5. Parses game metadata, reviews, player counts, HLTB data, and community stats 6. Optionally scrapes trending games from the homepage hot list ### Data Fields #### Core - `gameId` - ITAD internal UUID - `title` - Game name - `slug` - URL slug - `type` - game, dlc, or package - `url` - Full ITAD URL #### Reviews - `steamPositive` / `steamNegative` / `steamReviewCount` - Steam review data - `openCriticScore` / `openCriticCount` - OpenCritic rating - `metascore` / `metascoreCount` - Metascore - `metacriticUserScore` / `metacriticUserCount` - Metacritic user score #### Community - `rank` - ITAD popularity rank - `waitlisted` - Users waiting for a deal - `collected` - Users who own the game #### Players (from Steam) - `currentPlayers` - Live player count - `dayPeakPlayers` / `weekPeakPlayers` / `peakPlayers` - Peak counts #### HowLongToBeat - `hltbMain` - Main story (hours) - `hltbExtra` - Main + extras (hours) - `hltbCompletionist` - 100% completion (hours) #### Metadata - `tags` - Genre/category tags - `developers` / `publishers` - Studio info - `releaseDate` - Launch date - `steamAppId` - Steam app ID - `hasAchievements` / `hasTradingCards` - Steam features ### Quick Start ```bash apify run --purge ``` ### Deploy to Apify ```bash apify login apify push ``` *** ### Run on Apify This scraper runs on the [Apify platform](https://apify.com/?fpr=lulzasaur) -- a full-stack web scraping and automation cloud.

Each query is converted to a URL slug and looked up on IsThereAnyDeal. The scraper also searches the homepage for matching games. ## `maxListings` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of games to scrape total. Set to 0 for unlimited. ## `scrapeDetails` (type: `boolean`): If enabled, visits each game's detail page to extract full metadata: tags, reviews, HLTB times, player counts, developers, publishers, Steam features, and more. If disabled, only returns games found from homepage/search with basic info. ## `scrapeTrending` (type: `boolean`): If enabled, also scrapes the trending/hot games from the IsThereAnyDeal homepage. These are the most popular games on the site right now. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings. Recommended for large-scale runs to avoid rate limiting by Cloudflare. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchQueries": [ "Cyberpunk 2077" ], "maxListings": 100, "scrapeDetails": true, "scrapeTrending": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
