Does iTunes back up game data?

We had issues with the Apple ID so we have to 'reformat' the iPad. There are lots of games we wanna save but we don't know how to. We plan to backup and restore using iTunes, but we're not really sure if this will work. Does iTunes backup game data? Or does it only store in Apple account?

You can use iCloud to back up your iPad. I'm not quite sure at first so I do not recommend it but I found an old post that it works. Refer to this link: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4442877


And to be 'super sure' about it (since the post is a long time ago), you can contact Apple Support and/or the game developer.
