Journey fit
RAWG is primarily a discovery and competitive research surface for what exists in the market, which sits earliest in the solo journey before heavy build investment. Genre trends, release calendars, and reference screenshots support idea-phase research and positioning, even though you may keep the MCP installed through build.
How it compares
Game catalog research MCP, not a game engine or Steam commerce integration.
