There is a game in my steam library but I don't remember adding it. I wonder if my account is hacked

[3dburger]

I saw a game installing my steam library I do not remember installing a game called Spacewars I tried uninstalling it but it did not work. Apparently there is no files of it in my computer. I saw that there was activity on the game that I did not play. Is my account hacked or something?

I guess that mean you have a pirated game and it just comes up that way when identified?


Think that is how it works.

A quick search on google produced this resulat.

Spacewar was made to as a demo of Steamworks. It's a legitimate game, if boring. Steam has no interest in supporting a throw away product which is why they don't make it easy to find/install.

The only complication that arises is because pirates often use it to hide the use of illegally acquired games that require Steam. Valve will not do anything just because Spacewar appears on your game list, but other users may assume you're a pirate.

I would watch my account, to see if you have any unexplained hours logged in, and worse case change your password.

I changed my password and I no longer see it in my library, I HOPE it never shows up again. Thanks for the help

its probably just from a pirate copy of a game u played, pirates use it for games that have multiplayer, i wouldnt worry about it, if u played a pirated game, then ur account is fine cause that is where it came from, now im not enticing pirating just letting u know why it is there.

I have that with some game as well. It keeps being pushed into my library. In my case, it's a server for some online shooter.
