Hi,
The license of all these packages have that inside:
> 3) You may not charge a fee for the game itself. This includes
> reselling the game as an individual item.
And the FSDG has that:

So unfortunately here we need to remove these games.

We now ship none of these games as well as a fully bootstrapped
scummvm-based game. This ought to make everyone happy.
