Comment # 3 on bug 994550 from
That request is in direct contradiction to the packaging guidelines as posted
on

https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_Games

Notably:

* Package game files and data files separately, if possible, to reduce size of
bugfix updates. This must be done if upstream packages game data in separate
tarballs.
* In most cases, game data packages (levels, artwork, sounds and music) should
be BuildArch: noarch
* Data files (maps, pixmaps, sounds) go in  %{_datadir}/%{name} , not
%{_datadir}/games/%{name} . Binaries go in  %{_bindir} and not /usr/games.
According to the FHS, the use of /usr/share/games and /usr/games is optional,
and we recommend not using either for consistency, so that games are packaged
like all other applications. 

In fact, a game is no different to ANY OTHER application on a system.
