Firstly, it should be setgid games, not setuid games. See section
5.10 of policy (version 3.0.0.0).
Secondly, dh_suidregister works by looking through your debian/tmp
tree for setuid/setgid files. So you build the package with the
required program being owned by root.games and having permissions
2755, and then dh_suidmanager will work perfectly.
HTH,
Julian
