You have to set a physics engine for the game buttons to appear:
Create a new world, and set the physics drop down there.

There are some old design documents on blender.org that might help.  The 
gameengine is built as a static library that is linked to blender and 
blenderplayer.   The source is in source/gameengine and the layout is 
pretty self explanetory - Rasterizer in Rasterizer/, Physics in 
Physics/, core in Ketsji/
