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.

If it's properly cracked it doesn't need steam

The problem is that the game is free so no one cracked it and it is old and not updated so no one has it anymore.

why would it need to be cracked if it is free? 🧐

I am not searching for the crack i am searching for a version that doesnt use steam. I am searching for a build that can run without steam 😞

Sooo... you are looking for an older version of the game that doesn't require steam installed? But what if the lastest version of that game could work offline too without Steam installed but bundled with a Steam Emulator? Or maybe you still want the online functionalities too but just without installing Steam at all? Cause I need to understand what your actual problem is before I can give you a solution.

Anyways here is what I would do:

  1. Download Steam to get the game files
  2. Uninstall Steam
  3. Setup Goldberg Steam Emulator using Goldberg GUI
  4. Play the game offline (Goldberg also supports LAN if you wanna play with friends)

Any version is fine tbh the newer the better. I need the online functionalities without Steam. Someone already told abt Goldberg i might dig into it if needed but it is mainly to play with friends... I have to check all that thx for the help
