Finding a game's app ID

The app ID is the number in the Steam store URL: store.steampowered.com/app/1245620/ELDEN_RING → app ID is 1245620. Or just pass the game name and the Actor resolves it.

Game names	Names to resolve automatically, e.g. Elden Ring.
Top-games list	Optional: top 100 by 2-week players, all-time peak, or owners.
Top-list size	How many from the list (max 100).
