Is there any way to go from a game description to Play the game?

When viewing the Games section of the site: If I am viewing the details about a game, is there any way to go from there to the "Play Now" section of the site for the selected game?

I like the info (and layout) available on the Games pages, but cannot seem to get from there to actually playing a game. I add games to my favorites to more easily find then and then navigate to the Play Now tab... but just wondering if I am missing an option somewhere (as i just realized you can do the opposite: click the TITLE of a game from Play Now section to get to its details page in the Games section)

Thanks

I think you are correct. I usually do the same thing. Add to favorites and then go to play now. That might be a good addition to the site

Nope, there is no way

This is a big problem with the advert calendar. You open a present, see a button labelled 'Play Now!', only to find out that the button takes you to the game description, and there's no way to play a game from there! It's such a poor UX.
