the best way to install python modules in python is do
sudo apt-get install python-pip
and then do
sudo pip install name_of_python_module
for you
sudo pip install pygame
and if you are unsure about name of any of the modules you can do
pip search name_of_python_module
and it will give you the search results and take the name and install by above method
