Knowledge that life is a game. Certainty of a form of being which extends beyond the game.

Yes, because there is no awareness of gameplay. I think the most popular perspective (i could be wrong here) in the the scientific community is one of naturalism where the “you” ends with death. Not just “you” the life-character, but also consciousness and experience. This is unlike a sub-game, such as a video game, wherein once dead you continue to live and experience outside of that game. It doesn’t appear to be a game at all. It appears to be….everything.
If you look at it from a religious perspective then “good and bad” become absolutes instead of parameters of the game. And life becomes a sort-of gateway to a higher reality.
