Wait what, wtf is this thing?

It emulates/fakes you owning a game, but not in the sense of actually owning a game, it just... allows you to collect Steam Achievements... as if you do own the game?

This seems like the kinda thing where if you get caught, instant total Steam account ban.

EDIT:

Entirely seriously, it would make more sense to just use the Steam Family share system, just find a Steam oriented lemmy comm and propose making some kind of small game sharing group.

All you'd have to figurr out is who gets to be 'Mom' and set the rules... but other than that, if you have access to a game via a family share?

And you get achievements?

Those are real, they stick, and you i think even get cards or gems or what not for playing the legitimately shared game.

You just have to be able handling sharing, lol.

total Steam account ban

you could have a steam account for cracked games only. No loss.

Afaik gbe, greenluma etc. can also be uses to play cracked games in multiplayer through steam.

Which you can't do with family sharing unless there are multiple copies in the library (some games are excluded entirely) and not all friendgroups can afford that.

But if OPs purpose is to get achievements then it is a loss.
