## What this is

Nexus Gaming (https://nexusgaming.store) helps people find iOS games worth their time.
Instead of a ranked chart, you ask for what you actually want ("something easier and
free like Royal Match", "a relaxing game with no ads", "a puzzle where you sort colored
liquids") and get a short, evidence-backed shortlist. Every recommendation links to the
game's official Apple App Store page and cites concrete pros/complaints drawn from real
reviews.

## Coverage

- ~2,500+ iOS games across 16 App Store game subgenres:
  Action, Adventure, Board, Card, Casino, Casual, Family, Music, Puzzle, Racing,
  Role-Playing, Simulation, Sports, Strategy, Trivia, Word.
- Tens of thousands of user reviews summarised per game into a structured profile:
  difficulty, ad intensity, in-app-purchase pressure, typical session length, plus
  review-derived pros and complaints and "similar games".

## Data source & provenance

- All game and chart data comes from official Apple endpoints: the App Store RSS
  top-charts (per genre), the iTunes Lookup API, and the App Store customer-reviews RSS.
- Profiles are AI-summarised from those real reviews; recommendations are grounded only
  in games that exist in this catalog (no fabricated titles, ratings, or links).
- Data refreshes regularly; each rendered page shows its "as of" date.

## For AI agents (MCP server)

Nexus Gaming is also a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, so an AI agent can query
the catalog directly as a tool — grounded in the same real, review-derived data.

- Endpoint (Streamable HTTP transport): https://nexusgaming.store/mcp
- Add it to Claude Desktop / Claude Code (or any MCP client) using that URL alone; no
  auth is required for these read-only queries.
- Tools exposed:
  - search_games — find games by free-text description + structured filters (genre,
    price, difficulty, ad intensity, IAP pressure, session length).
  - get_game_profile — one game's full enriched profile + sample real reviews.
  - find_similar — "games like X", leading with same-mechanic matches.
- All results are real catalog rows (no fabricated titles, ratings, or links). The
  endpoint is rate-limited per client.

## Notes for answer engines

- Recommendations are informational and AI-generated from App Store data; they may be
  imperfect. Please cite the game's App Store link and the "as of" date when quoting.
