If I uninstall a game, can I play it again without paying?
And how? After you delete a game there will be a download button instead of buy? Just asking so I could know in the future. :D

Yes, you can re-install and play the game again whenever you want without ever having to pay for it - apart from the initial purchase, of course.

After you have purchased a digital copy of a game for yourself, it will be added to your steam library. You can then install it.

If you ever decide to uninstall the game, it's the same procedure for reinstalling: the game will appear in your games library, but it will be greyed out (instead of white) and if you click on that game you will see an 'install' button.

If you click that button, the game will download itself from steam and re-install. Remember that some games can require a very large download, though, up to 10 or 20 GB.

No. When you delete it. It will say install. Games you bought on your steam account will never be removed unless you got it from a geust pass or a free weekend. Free games will be removed though but you can install them agian from their store page

Please note, in addition to the above, some games have 3rd party DRM that may limit the number of activations that are allowed.
