I am interested in accessing the data of igdb.com for a hobby project. They have an api that is "free", ie it requires a twitch account with 2fa enabled which means i would need to hand over my phone number to twitch. That is a hard no from my side.

Anyone know of a way to get a dump of their database or a similar source where i could get api access without revealing personal information? For my project i am after only title, release year, some sort of rating and some sort of playtime.

Email them and ask. They can probably create you an account without twitch.
