We did some research a few years ago which was similar in some aspects. We have mapped roguelikes and boardgames into the hyperbolic plane based on the frequency of two games being mentioned together on Reddit. Here are our maps: Roguelikes description: http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/reddit.php http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/reddit.php Roguelikes interactive: http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/rogueviz-online.php?c=-lab+-dftcolor+383838FF+-canvas+101010+-sag+1+-color+2+-gload+3+-noplayer+--msg0&1=rv%2Froguelikes%2Fedges.csv&2=rv%2Froguelikes%2Fcolor.csv&3=rv%2Froguelikes%2Fcoord-67.txt http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/rogueviz-online.php?c=-la... Boardgames description: http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/redditboard.php http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/redditboard.php Boardgames interactive: http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/rogueviz-online.php?c=-lab+-canvas+101010+-sag+1+-color+2+-gload+3+-noplayer+--msg0&1=rv%2Fboardgames%2Fedges.csv&2=rv%2Fboardgames%2Fcolor.csv&3=rv%2Fboardgames%2Fcoord-67.txt http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/rogueviz-online.php?c=-la... Since similar games are mapped together, and popular games tend to be close to the center, our maps work great as a recommendation system too. They also look great :)
