In their own words

Interactive Fiction Database

Interactive Fiction Database (IFDB) is a free community catalog that helps players find interactive fiction games and decide what to play. Members can add and edit listings, search by title, author, or description, and narrow results with filters for genre, language, authoring system, format, rating, and publication date. Discovery tools include personalized recommendations, lists, polls, reviews, ratings, competitions, and member profiles. For supported titles, a Play Online option opens a game in a browser without an interpreter download; IFDB catalogs game information rather than hosting the games. Developers can use HTTP APIs that return JSON to search, retrieve listings, edit tags, or publish iFiction XML. Those APIs are intended for low-volume, user-driven applications, not frequent crawling or high-load mirroring. Full SQL exports excluding personal information are available through the IF Archive and updated roughly quarterly. IFDB also has web access and supports Z-machine, TADS, Hugo, and executable applications. It is maintained by the Interactive Fiction Technology Foundation and funded by supporter donations.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Database

Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Database is an official Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game site for searching cards, decks, products and rules. Card pages provide detailed information from each card’s release date. Users can look up public Deck Recipes, including tournament championship and runner-up decks, or search for decks containing a chosen card. Product listings show the cards included in packs, boxes and other releases, with information available from release. Users can register, organize and publish Deck Recipes, including Speed Duel and DUEL LINKS decks; logged-in users can also keep Owned Cards and Wish Lists. The database includes detailed rules and the latest Forbidden & Limited List for official tournament restrictions. Its Trends ranking draws on newly created decks and decks used in tournaments. The service is free and lists web, Android and iOS availability. Konami’s Yu-Gi-Oh! NEURON companion app connects to the database for deck management and can identify up to 20 cards at once using a smartphone camera. Some areas may require registration, and Web Service use requires linking a Card Game ID and KONAMI ID.
