These are the games free with the pass.

However, the exact difference can be told by experts on the Xbox forum so suggest you to start a question there.

Not able to install games from game pass.

The games are from Game Pass. I have tried with a normal app, and it worked. I have only ever tried with two Game Pass Games: Dead Rising 3 and Hitman. Only two weeks ago I installed Sea of Thieves and Forza Horizon 4.
