It is to avoid bots.

It is, but only captcha doesn't stop them, SMF is using very old captcha and today's spamming software like xrumer are very advanced, they can bypass mail registration and recaptcha easily.

In my opinion theymos should use something like this  areyouahuman.com  (it's not currently available for SMF)

I think the game captcha is kinda nice. Just complete a simple game and pass instead of trying to read the messed up word. Not really sure how good is this against bot though.
