This is an infobox template for a game article. If an italic title is required, add |italic title=yes or |italic title=force to the list of parameters, and use '' '' (single quotation marks) around the title in the infobox.
If the article is about a card game, you may use {{Infobox card game}}; if the article is about a video game, use {{Infobox video game}} instead.
