At most 500 characters (the column it is stored in); a longer URL is refused with 400. Not declared as maxLength: the services read a uri as a URI type, which length validation does not apply to, so they check the length themselves.
How a game is won: by score (SCORE), time (TIME) or number of turns (TURNS), each with a win condition, or by winning and losing (WIN_LOSS), which never has a win condition. The engine (chk_game_win_condition) and the game catalog (chk_candidate_win_condition) enforce the same rule.
Whether the highest or the lowest score wins; required unless the score type is WIN_LOSS, absent then

Where a game or expansion came from, as <source>:<id>, e.g. bgg:199792. Unique per game and per expansion: creating a second one with the same source is refused with 409.
