| Description | text | A short and sweet description of what this game is about. |
| Long Description | text | A long and comprehensive description of what this game is about. |
| Release Year | date | It's quite hard to browse the database of MobyGames by release year, because every game is showing up there which has a release in this year in the database. So I think we'll need an easy way to store the original release year of every game in Oregami's database, i. e. the year of the first release of any version of this game. We can later give the users the option to view their game lists by this year of original release, or by other release data like the original release year of a release group, or even every single release like Mobygames does. |
