Hello all! I created one of the first game-grabbing scripts way back in February of 2020 GitHub link. It got some good traction, worked for a while, then Epic instituted a lot of captcha garbage that made it basically impossible to get around. I got busy, and ultimately abandoned the project.

Recently I got bored and noticed that the desktop app doesn't do any captcha stuff and let's you do everything without asking for further validation (similar to how the web app used to work). So after about an hour or so, I've almost got this thing grabbing games again. The GIF below shows a demo of it logging in without issue and I'll be posting the work-in-progress code to this new repo: . So be on the lookout if you still care and there isn't some better option I'm missing!
