No game. A British (well, Liverpool) expression meaning:

"playing hard-to-get" is when a woman feigns indifference to a man, pretends she doesn't like him, as a means of enticing him.

"knickers in the handbag" not wearing her panties, got them in her handbag/purse

i.e. pretending she doesn't want sex when really she's ready for it.

Now, applied figuratively to your case :-)
