you can activate installing "recommends" as "depends". there is a switch that will enable the change in all package managers on the Other tab of MX Tweak.
you can also use the commandline for one-offs.
Code: Select all
sudo apt install games-board --install-recommends
Sounds like another winner
I'll try that and see how it goes...

@Jerry3904 AND
@dolphin_oracle
I'm just gonna select D.O. for "Solved", since it was just easier for this lazy programmer

:
Code: Select all
sudo apt install games-board --install-recommends
Really appreciate the feedback from everyone, and...
thanks for helping me waste more time.
Nah...Just kidding...It's never a waste to enjoy the ride...whistle-while-you-work, etc....
Those games might even give me some ideas that will help the world.
