You don't get handicaps the longer you play chess. But it's still
fun (to some, anyway). Nowhere outside of this genre do I see
serious arguments that fun is necessarily and by its nature about
gaining new abilities. Yes, moving through different sets of
possibilities with different values over the course of a game seems
central to games.  No, that does not necessarily entail gains of
abilities.
