The games I add doesn’t show up in the games list.

Make sure you click publish on the game, if you only save a draft, it will not appear in the games list.

Will games I publish appear in search results when visitors use the search function on my website?

No, the games are saved as a different post type that is excluded from searches and archives. They will only be visible in posts/pages where you embed them using shortcodes.
