Description

The categories and publishers tables already include a description field, but the game detail page only shows their names. Surfacing these descriptions gives backers helpful context about who is behind a game and what kind of game it is, with no schema changes required.

Acceptance criteria

  • The game detail page displays the category description when one is available
  • The game detail page displays the publisher description when one is available
  • Missing descriptions are handled gracefully (the section is hidden rather than showing empty content)
  • The new content follows the project's styling and accessibility guidelines and includes data-testid attributes
  • The data-access helper is updated to include the description fields, with unit tests covering the change, and Playwright e2e tests verify the descriptions render

Research direction

Start at the game detail page and trace the data-access helper that loads category and publisher data. Update the helper and its unit tests for descriptions, then use the Playwright e2e tests to verify available descriptions render, missing sections stay hidden, and the new content has the required data-testid attributes and accessible styling.
