LB not recognizing all Steam games

We don't use local files to determine what games you do or do not have. We utilize the Steam API. Because of this we can only see what they tell us is there. Unfortunately it would seem not all games appear in that API and I have been unable to find a definitive list of why that is the case.

Yeah. All you have to do is add a new game and set the application path to the correct path (which is "steam://rungameid/251570") but replace the numeral with the game you are adding (and don't add the quotes). Once added you can use the Download Metadata and Media tool or the Add/Edit game window to pull Steam metadata/media like you normally would as well as determine install state on startup and launch via Steam.
