Removing software from a repository does not prohibit users from
installing it.  It just asures the user that their system is free from
user subjugating software.  If someone wants to write a game and is
capable of writting it for that engine, they are prabably capable of
installing the game engine from outside repositories.

When there is free software for a game engine, I do not see a reason to
remove it.  Otherwise, if its exclusive use is to run nonfree software,
in practice it does not provide freedom to the user.
