A game is usually a competitive activity between two competing sides. It's a dangerous game because it's involving the attempt of a murder of Rainsford by Zaroff via hunting. It's also dangerous because of the environment in which they dwell and the other forces working towards his downfall such as Ivan and the dogs.
