About this plugin
GameBrain adds video game blocks to WordPress: a game info card, a review score
summary, a similar-games row and a where-to-buy price list, backed by a game
database of over 800,000 titles. Content is rendered on the server, so it is
org markup that makes your game
reviews eligible for rich results in search — and it inherits your theme’s fonts
and colors instead of looking like an embedded ad.
Four blocks are included:
- Game Card — a compact fact card: cover, GameBrain Score, release date,
genres and platforms.
- Review Summary — GameBrain, critic and user scores, plus what players like
and dislike.
- Similar Games — a scrollable row of related titles, each with a score badge
and platforms.
- Where to Buy — current store offers with prices and store logos.
Why GameBrain
- SEO-ready — everything is server-rendered HTML with schema.org markup
(VideoGame, Offer, ItemList), so your game reviews can qualify for rich
results instead of shipping empty JavaScript embeds.
- Fast — game data is cached on your site and refreshed in the background;
rendering never waits on a network request.
- No API key — one click connects your site; there is nothing to copy,
paste or configure.
- Private — no data about your visitors is ever sent to GameBrain.
Each block can also be added outside the block editor with a shortcode or the
classic widget, so it works in the Classic editor, page builders and text widgets:
[gamebrain_game id="slug-or-id" block="card|review|similar|buy"]
Appearance is configurable site-wide (accent color, score-band colors, corner
radius, density, surface style, max width) and per block — without editing plugin
files. Advanced users can also override the documented –gb-* CSS variables and
BEM classes from Appearance → Customize → Additional CSS or a child theme.

External service notice. co),
an external service, to retrieve game data. Connecting from Settings → GameBrain
creates a free, site-scoped account; your site URL and admin email are sent to
GameBrain at that point. Your admin email is stored by GameBrain as the account
owner. Game data is fetched server-side and cached on your site. No data about
your visitors is sent to GameBrain. Disconnecting or uninstalling the plugin
requests deletion of your GameBrain account, including the stored email.
