Request Path: /search

"subgenre": "SUBGENRE_FULL_NAME",
"ratingSort":"[DEFAULT|ASC|DESC]"
}
example:
{
"title": "",
"subgenre": "Action",
"ratingSort":"DESC"
}
title: search keyword for game title. Can have space and special character(although will be removed when querying database). case sensitive.
subgenre: full spelling name of the genre. ex. "Action", "Casino".

| "" | NOT_NULL | "DESC" | Top20 results within the subgenre sorted by rating in descending order |
Another path is used to loading game data in gamedata.json into the database. For saving time, I just insert first 500 rows. It you want to, you could try it. But it will take some time.
