About
This dataset provides user reviews for mobile games, collected from TapTap, a popular mobile game community and distribution platform in China. Its primary purpose is to facilitate sentiment analysis of Chinese game reviews. The reviews are mostly in Chinese and cover the 1,000 most recent comments for 20 popular games up until April 5, 2025. Each entry includes the user's rating, the text content of the review, the number of likes the review received, the publication timestamp, the device model used (where available), the name of the game reviewed, and a sentiment label. User identifiers have been removed to protect privacy.
Columns
- rating: User-provided star rating for the game, ranging from 1 to 5.
- review_content: The text content of the user review, written in Chinese.
- likes: The number of likes received by the review on TapTap.
- publish_time: The date and time the review was published, formatted as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS. This column has been converted to datetime format.
- device_model: The device model reported by the user when posting the review. This column may contain inconsistencies and 'unknown' values.
- game_name: The name of the mobile game being reviewed. There are 20 distinct game names in the dataset.
- sentiment: A binary sentiment label, where 0 indicates negative sentiment and 1 indicates positive sentiment. This label is directly converted from the star rating (1-2 stars typically map to 0, and 3-5 stars map to 1).
Distribution
The dataset is typically provided in CSV format. It contains reviews for 20 distinct mobile games. While the source mentions it covers the 1,000 most recent comments, other details indicate larger counts for specific fields, with ratings having around 39,592 unique entries and sentiment labels totalling approximately 39,985 entries across positive and negative categories. The number of likes varies, with a large majority in the 0-142.75 range. The dataset structure has user identifiers removed for privacy.
Usage
