Abstract
A game package shell is provided with a panel which includes pieces for the game. The package shell is unitary, thus decreasing collating expenses and reducing errors in associating pieces with games. In one embodiment, the game piece panel can be removable and be folded onto a panel which is provided with game rules. Removal of the game piece panel thereby exposes the game rules.
