Hi

Would you please tell me that how is the following sentence is to be read? I think it's the #1. Please guide me. Thanks.

The goal is usually to be the first to complete the list, although in a variation on the game players can also be challenged to complete the tasks on the list in the most creative manner.

1: The goal is usually to be the first to complete the list, although in a variation, on the game players can also be challenged to complete the tasks on the list in the most creative manner.

2: The goal is usually to be the first to complete the list, although in a variation on the game, players can also be challenged to complete the tasks on the list in the most creative manner.

But I thought if it had to be #2 then it would be 'in a variation in the game'.-- No. 'Of'.

Is saying "in a variation on the variation" a more idiomatic way?-- If you have varied the variation, yes, but not 'more idiomatic'.
