How much does the sims 4 cost? (lol)

Get the price of the sims 4, including all DLCs, live!

NOTICE: The hosted instance of this server, previously at https://howmuchdoesthesims4cost.lol, was moved to https://howmuchdoesthesims4cost.nexy7574.co.uk as the .lol renewal price was... a lot. So the domain expired.

Getting a different steam game's price

If you include the steam game ID in the fragment (site.example/#game_id), you can fetch the price of any game and all of its DLCs. For example: https://howmuchdoesthesims4cost.nexy7574.co.uk/#255710.

New! (2024-09-02) You can now also include the game ID in the search parameters. For example: https://howmuchdoesthesims4cost.nexy7574.co.uk/?app_id=255710. There is also now a form included at the bottom of the page, above the footer, that allows you to put an ID in. You can also now just pass a steam store URL into the site. Technological advancements!

Running your own

Running your own instance is rather easy. The entire site is static, apart from one API endpoint that is needed as a transformer proxy.

All you need to do is run server.py, and the app will be available at http://localhost:1037 (it actually listens to 0.0.0.0 by default). Then, you can serve this with your favourite reverse proxy.

As the included static files server is rather basic, you may have better performance if you serve the static/ directory directly from your reverse proxy.
