Simple enough, check the properties of the game's shortcut. It will be some exe file. For example, a game with a name of Deus Ex will be DeusEX.exe. Just rename the file to something else. This way, if you want to allow them to play the game later on, all you have to do is look at its shortcut again and change it to the name its looking for.
