Top row background color

{{table

Half-Life 2 Chapters

Apparently you'd like to use a fitting background color for the top row for each game. Instead of hard coding it for each game, like #403305 that you used for hl2, you can - if it fits to your plans - make use of {{hl2|col}} for that matter, or more precisely: {{{{{game}}}|col}}. Using this, the background color adapts to the {{{game}}}. Using a second half transparent black background color, you can darken the game's color. This should work out as long as the game color is not too dark. :)

In addition, this would mean that you don't need to #switch for the game right at the beginning of the template (in which case you could also just make a template for each game's chapters), instead after the table's top row. That should decrease redundance at least a bit.

Adding a collapsible to the table

I finally was able to make it work, but not how the todo wants it, because of how it implements the elements, so this is the example from Template:Chapters/sandbox:
