## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## GG.deals Game Price & Offers Scraper

Scrape detailed game pricing, deals, store offers, ratings, images, categories, related products, and more from GG.deals.

This actor lets you retrieve structured game data from [GG.deals](https://gg.deals), including official store offers and keyshop offers. You can provide either **game names** or **GG.deals game URLs** as input.

### Features

- 🎮 Search for games by name
- 🔗 Scrape specific GG.deals game URLs
- 💰 Extract current game prices and discounts
- 🏪 Extract official store offers
- 🔑 Extract keyshop offers
- 🎯 Extract DRM information
- 📉 Extract original prices and discount percentages
- ⭐ Extract user ratings and rating counts
- 🖼️ Extract game images
- 🎬 Extract related videos and trailers
- 🏷️ Extract publisher/brand information
- 📂 Extract game categories
- 🔗 Extract related game products and platform versions
- 🔄 Automatic retries for failed requests
- 🌐 Proxy support

### Input

You can scrape games in two ways:

#### Option 1: Search by game name

Provide a list of game names using the `games` parameter. The actor will search GG.deals and scrape the matching game pages.

```json
{
  "games": [
    "Grand Theft Auto V",
    "valheim"
  ],
  "platform": "PC",
  "max_retries": 2,
  "proxy": "..."
}
```

#### Option 2: Provide GG.deals URLs

If you already know the GG.deals game URLs, you can provide them directly using `start_urls`.

```json
{
  "start_urls": [
    {
      "url": "https://gg.deals/game/grand-theft-auto-v/"
    },
    {
      "url": "https://gg.deals/game/the-blood-of-dawnwalker/"
    }
  ],
  "platform": "PC",
  "max_retries": 2,
  "proxy": "..."
}
```

Using `start_urls` is recommended when you need to scrape specific GG.deals pages and want to avoid game-name search ambiguity.

### Input parameters

| Parameter     | Type    | Description                                    |
| ------------- | ------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| `games`       | Array   | Game names to search for on GG.deals.          |
| `start_urls`  | Array   | Direct GG.deals game URLs to scrape.           |
| `platform`    | String  | Platform to scrape, such as `PC`.              |
| `max_retries` | Integer | Maximum number of retries for failed requests. |
| `proxy`       | String  | Proxy configuration used by the actor.         |

You can use either `games` or `start_urls` depending on your use case.

The actor returns structured JSON containing game information, ratings, images, related products, videos, categories, and current offers from stores.

### Recommended input

For a small number of known games, use `start_urls`:
