I doubt you're going to get a query plan that's significantly better
than what you show here. But those tables are pretty large, so
I wonder whether you have cranked up work_mem.

One potential issue is that the planner thinks there are only
about 1829 distinct game_id values:

> HashAggregate (cost=63810150.11..63810168.40 rows=1829 width=4)
> Group Key: p.game_id

Is that about the right size of result for this?
