I am in search for a game but can only find it on Steam. I did find someone on CS who had the game build that could launch without Steam but the link is long expired... Do you guys know where it is possible to find Steam less games?? I really don't want to download Steam just to play 1 game on my laptop.

      I did search few but no one has it... the game is free on steam and is old (unmaintained). So cant find it nowhere...

        Ok, since it's a free game, you can post the title so someone might be able to help you locate a non-steam version. But don't get your hopes up - it may simply be unavailable.

          Its Muck it was available until the links expired. I might have found it on softonic but never used that website before so asking here if anyone knows anything

            Oh ok. According to some random on the dev’s website forum for the game, it relies on steam networking to run properly, so you might be shit outta luck. The softonic listing just redirects to steam.

        no pirated game needs steam to launch, maybe what you are referring to is steam teşease of a game, which is steam version being pirated, doesn't need steam at all
