Perhaps:
The “game” is life, and, like all games, you are supposed to have fun in life. Mister Six started taking himself too seriously and forgot it was all in fun.
Or:
The “game” is Jack Frost, and by destroying Mr. Mackie, Mr. Six divorced himself from the Buddha-Godhead and needed a ritual rebirth to rejoin the cosmic consciousness of the Liverpool boy.
Or:
Mr. Six was a member of the Harlequinade and forgot.
Or:
Being outside the game and out of phase with the rest of society is a natural result of exposure to the Hand of Glory. Directly after being exposed to it, Takashi, Boy, Robin, and the golden age Invisibles all had ritual rebirths, as did Mason and King Mob shortly after. Mr. Six was exposed to the Hand and so needed to be switched back to our reality.
Or:
Mr. Six is the Chessman, playing against Harlequinade (or the other way around) (or Harley is a spectator watching a game between Six and the Chessman) and Harley is getting impatient waiting for the next move.
Or:
Given Mr. Six’s absence from the second volume of the Invisibles, Grant had moved him out of the game of the Invisibles Series and then when he wanted to put him back in, or at least continue writing about him, he had to come up with something interesting, i.e. the description of Six in the Invisibles is the game.
These ideas help at all?
