An infobox allows you to have a template for commonly used information that shows up on the right side of the page. For Icehouse games, you can use the Infobox_Game infobox, using the following example as a model. The output of this example is shown on this page. It is usually best to add the infobox to the very top of the page, before any text.

Infobox Sandbox

If you would like to play with the Infobox design, but you don't want to bungle nearly every game page at once, try out your changes using the Template:Infobox Game Sandbox. It's just like the regular Template:Infobox Game that's on every game's page, but this one lets you bungle only sandbox pages like this one.

The old-format infobox (which is still in the sandbox) is shown below on the right. The current-format infobox is shown to the left, for comparison.
