One thing Bernard Suits wrote when he was trying to define games was that they are inefficient. What he meant was that they are often there to slow down the players on their way to the goal. Is that what you're after? Then I agree.
And I can bite into your definition if it's only about one player and the game. If there is two players, then they can fight each other with the rules as a limitation - as something to follow. This is what happens in sport.
