In Manjaro if I downloaded an app image or .run (it was a game), it gave me the option to install it system wide.
How do I accomplish that on my Kubuntu 21.04?

Basically, you have to put the binary file into a location that everyone can see. Assuming that you have already marked the file as executable, you could put the file into /usr/local/bin with a command like
sudo cp <path to appimage file> /usr/local/bin/
The .run files are a little harder, as you will have to determine what they are doing, before you can make them available system wide. This can vary from file to file.

/usr/local/binwill be better place! – N0rbert Apr 27 '21 at 20:10
