I'm not to sure, but I think clutter is specifically a GNOME package. I'm using GNOME 3, so I may be different, but searching in Synaptic shows a few clutter related packages are installed. Is it the same for you?

Not sure where you are going with this, but, yes, I do show clutter libraries installed. I would expect that if the game installed, dependencies should have also installed, even if clutter is a GNOME package.
