Probably does not help you solve your problem, but I just tried here
and it worked for me. I am running as my normal user. The permissions
of the installed binary look the same as yours.

Where I start the game I saw some messages like:

$ scavenger
No /home/paul/.scavenger/!!! Setting one up...
No /home/paul/.scavenger/levels.scl, setting one up...
Trying to copy /usr/share/games/scavenger/levels.scl......copied.
No /home/paul/.scavenger/scavrc, setting one up...


Also BTW -- there is a more modern SDL-based version on the author's
website. I don't see any ebuild but maybe you can compile it and see
how it goes.
