That depends on what the game is. For example if they wanted the embassy to stay in their old already compromised premises they achieved that. (for about twenty years at least.) If they wanted the USA to spend a lot of money they also achieved that.
They knew about the devices in 1985, a few years after construction started in 1979 and construction didn't finish till 2000. They probably knew earlier than 1985. So it probably wasn't a big deal and would've cost the SU a lot and they were less able to afford it.
Not really. It makes it clear from the first attempted sweep they altered construction -- the opposite of a long game.
