The Dataset's Description

The data analyzed in this report, i.e. the games.csv file in the repo, describes the sales data of all recorded Ice Games' releases from the year of $1980$ up to $2016$, including the sales numbers on the top 3 target markets (i.e. ¹North America, ²Europe, and ³Japan) as well as the rest of the world sales volume.

The data's rows each represent a single game, stating each unique game's following parameters:

• Release year.
• Genre of the game.
• Released platform.
  ✲ Some games got released on several platforms, and hence were represented in multiple rows.
• ESRB age rating.
  ✲ ESRB stands for the "Entertainment Software Rating Board" - which evaluates a game's content and assigns an age rating such as Teen or Mature.
  
• Users & critics scores from reviews.

Disclaimer Note: User and expert reviews, genres, platforms (e.g. Xbox or PlayStation), and historical data on game sales are available from open sources.
