I think it goes on a case by case basis. Though trespassing may or may not be a direct "game law", wardens can use discretion just like any other officer. If you are stopped by a warden hunting somewhere you aren't supposed to be a warden can give you a ticket for trespassing and hunting or taking game without permission. He or she can use their discretion and give you a ticket for everything you are doing wrong or be more lenient and just give you one for a lesser offense. It's no different than when you get stopped for speeding and the officer gives you a ticket for an inspection or registration sticker instead. You were still ticketed, just for a cheaper and lesser offense. So, as far as hunting, if you are actively hunting and you get stopped by a warden and get a ticket for trespassing, you were hunting somewhere you weren't supposed to be, and hunting involves game, and to me that puts that violation in the "game law" category.
