No. In short, binary code is the code your computer executes, it can be in many forms, ranging from bytecode, which must be interpreted, but is pre-compiled to machine code, which is directly run by the system, and is generally specific to a particular system. Source code is the code of the program, as written by the programmer. It is written in a language that can be translated into instructions understood by computers. Most of the times, binary code is not easily human readable whereas source code is.

Is gaming software for a fast paced action game that runs on a single computer a high or low level language?

The software that runs is neither--it is the binary or machine code. The binary code was generated from source code by an compiler or assembler. The source code can be written in a high or low level language or in a mixture. Most source code today is written in high-level language because it is easier to maintain and more portable. However, sometimes speed-critical sections of source code are written in low-level language such as assembly.

Why would you build a package from its source code when a (binary) rpm file is available?

Usually the cases are that the source code versions are newer than what is provided by the repositories. Also, you can't readily tell what is in the binary-only builds as everything's done for you. In most cases is that the specific software package may not be available in the repositories that warrants a "build from source".
