From what I see in the archive link I posted, it only contains patches, not playable games, neither original nor patched. You need a copy of the game already to make any use of it.

I'll take a look tomorrow. I'm UTC+2 (I just can't sleep right now ๐Ÿ˜…), so I'm not yet in the required state of mind to go and check all of that.

That's correct. The entire archive is only about 12GB; it couldn't possibly contain the full games.
