So how will a distro get a complete list of all KDE games and the locations of
their repositories?  Does he/she go to https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdegames
and click through to each repository or what?

What ensures that all games are picked up?  I count 39 games and 2 libraries
on that list, but people write of there being 40 games.
