Sounds like it's pretty much this.
And I pretty much agree with Levin (And hopefully I'll never have to say that again. ). This is seriously messed up, even for a game like this.

I mean, set up challenges where death is the likelier outcome by far? Well, it is a Death Game, the contestants knew what they signed up for.
Players backstabbing each other? Part of the challenge.
Give a player loose conditions that make death inevitable?
Yeah, no. Might as well shoot the poor guy and be done with it.

Depends on how it was set up. 'Smile Guy' very well might have known his rule before he got into the game. And that he would be used as a proxy for the Smile to talk. With an absolutely massive reward to be had, he might have thought it was worth the risk. But I bet he didn't know about the box of truth thing, so that was very much a gotcha moment that got him killed.

Did we learn Infinity's secret when he died?

We did. Infinite's secret was that someone had entered the game under false pretenses and that you get 5 mil for identifying them and another 5 mil for killing them.
