kde-full? That package is a meta-package it is used simply to depend on 
other packages. it isn't usually installed, or necessary - it basically tells 
the package manager to install literally the entire set of KDE packages. I 
believe it is a 	Debian thing that gets carried over. 

Maybe run the the command line to remove the game and post the results 
so we can see exactly what is happening? When I try removing the game, it 
only wants to remove itself and the meta-package kdegames.
