games metadata endpoint
Unofficial Metacritic API
This API provides programmatic access to Metacritic-style game metadata, including metascore, user score, review counts, release dates, and platform-specific availability. It is built for applications, dashboards, and research tools that need structured game score data across multiple platforms without scraping pages directly.
