'game' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'mature boy holding up a boring pc' is the wordplay.
'mature boy' becomes 'man' (I am not sure about the 'mature' bit.).
'holding up' means one lot of letters go next to another (some letters go underneath or hold up others).
'boring' indicates putting letters inside (to bore something can mean to drill into it).
'a' inserted into 'pc' is 'pac'.
'man' put after 'pac' is 'PACMAN'.
