I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a game-playing venue' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'team rescued a man thrown' is the wordplay.
'thrown' is an anagram indicator.
'team'+'rescued'+'a'+'man'='teamrescuedaman'
'teamrescuedaman' with letters rearranged gives 'AMUSEMENT ARCADE'.

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for amusement arcade that I've seen before include "gambling haunt" , "kids might have fun here" , "gambling joint" , "Where to find games machines" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
