Will my iPad get damaged if I the leave the iPad running for 24 7 playing this game called RFS on the App Store?

What I mean by damaged is if the iPad would overheat, the battery exploding, or the iPad’s motherboard getting fried???

No, you iPad will not suffer damage from extended use. If the iPad becomes too hot, the iPad will automatically protect itself from damage:

If your iPhone or iPad gets too hot or too cold - Apple Support


Similarly, Your iPad will suffer no ill effects through being connected to its Power Adapter for extended periods. Your iPad will automatically regulate and optimise charging - and will not overcharge the battery. 


When used in kiosk applications - where external power is connected for extended periods of time - the iPad may modify its charging strategy and limit battery charge to ~80% of maximum. This modified charging strategy is designed to reduce chemical ageing that might otherwise occur if 100% charge is maintained at all times.


Nominal 100% charging will be restored when a normal charge/discharge routine is restored.
