I'm not sure, since I've not gotten a pointer to the SDK. But at any case I expect its only a certain genre of games that can be developed on these devices owing to the refresh rates of e-Ink. IOW, only games that don't involve graphics and animation. Typically turn based games like chess or the ones like soduku etc.. Given that there are quite powerful chess engines for mobile phones, I think it shouldn't be too difficult to get one for these devices as they are not as restricted as mobile phones in terms of compute power.

There are games like chess available for many eBook readers - eg Pocketbook and Onyx/Neo.
