Analysis Paralysis

This blog takes the data we collect for Recommend.Games and tries to answer insteresting questions with them (at least we think they are interesting). Everything we do is open source including work in progress, so you can get a sneak peek at upcoming articles on GitLab. Better yet, you can contribute by fixing typos, suggesting new topics or even performing some analyses yourself!
