There are metapackages for the best games:

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/games-finest

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/games-finest-light

Yeah those are all in Synaptic.

Well yes, synaptic lists all of the packages in the Debian repositories.

My point was that the metapackages exist to allow easy installation for all of Debian's "finest" games and I linked the package pages so that people could see what those games are if they wanted to install any of them individually.

If so, which are your favorites?

There are many. I switch to Linux 16 years ago. All I did the first 1 and 1/2 years, was nothing but Linux games.

Sparky, look for 'em listed within synaptic (not MXpackageinstaller).
If you found a game title of interest, for instance "ballz" mentioned on the webpage, search in synaptic to find your ballz
