While it is okay to use your phone while it is charging, it is not recommended, more importantly, if you're playing games. Always remember that when you're charging your device, it will heat up, especially if fast charging is enabled. Playing games will make use of the processor and resources thus, heating your device more - again. These combined will not be good for your phone's battery in the long haul. Don't make this a habit.

It would be fine but do not make it as a habjt. Make sure to fully charge your phone prior the event and just charge it when you have to. Goodluck on your game😊

It's actually futile. The latest phones will adapt to the battery usage. If it's discharging and you're charging it will use trickle charge to try and maintain battery life. It will take a long time to fully charge. Not sure if you can over ride that but I'm pretty sure doing so will ensure a much shorter battery life.
