Icons like these:

Answer:
I'm not pretty sure, but you should try long pressing on one of the icons, and choose "App info" http://option.It should lead to the culprit app/game. Btw, the App info option won't be present in all launchers (I'm not sure about stock Android launcher because I switch to Apex as soon as I can), so install any 3rd party launcher (like I mentioned before, I would suggest the free Apex launcher) and proceed with what I suggested.

Icons are added to your home screen after downloading the app from the Play Store. So the rel culprit here is the Play Store and not the app. :P To disable this : Go to Play Store>Settings.. There you will find an option - "Add icon to home screen".. Just uncheck the option and no icons will be added to your home screen. Hope this helps! :)
