The Queen's Pawn Game arises after 1.d4 d5. ECO code: D00.

The most classical Queen's Pawn position. Both sides occupy the centre symmetrically. White's main continuations are 2.c4 (the Queen\'s Gambit), 2.Nf3, 2.Bf4 (London System), 2.Bg5 (Levitsky/Veresov Attack), 2.Nc3, or 2.e4 (Blackmar-Diemer Gambit). The character of the game depends entirely on White's second move.
