Same applies to categories & details

AttributeError: module 'play_scraper' has no attribute 'categories'

Sure, it is a bug now. Once you try this url in your browser, you would also get 404 error, an alternative way is to use collection method merely, and filter the results returned with category.

Or waiting for the nice contributors of this useful project to fix this bug.
