The issue is that this software is not open source. Hence it cannot be
part of the universe repository, but if only of the multiverse
repository, since all software in universe requires an appropriate
software license and open source code.

Should this be marked Confirmed, as it doesn't exist in the repos? I
would do this, but you're not meant to confirm your own bugs :D

The tarball is a binary release.
There's no source, and no license info.
In the bug tracker (http://fold.it/portal/node/712386), one of the project
admins stated this:
The game currently does not need any sort of licence merely to use, i.e. you
are free to play and redistribute the executable.
