Crossword Genius

Rest of the game? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nap

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'rest' is the first definition.
(a nap is a short sleep)

'game' is the second definition.
(card game)

'of the' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for nap that I've seen before include "Snatch forty winks" , "soft, fluffy surface" , "A brief snooze" , "Short sleep on soft surface texture?" , "Raised fibres on surface of cloth or leather" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
