No

You can get all installed apps with packagemanager. But there is no info that this app is a game or not.

You can create a list of games if you know which of the apps is a game.
Fill you listview with them... You can get the starting intent with the packagemanager to get the intent to start the game.

No! You can not include another app in your layout. All you can do is to start the other app.
