Steam Family Sharing Play At The Same Time

Steam Family Sharing enables you, your friends, and your family to share games with each other while keeping your accounts separate.

Family is a first-person horror game in which the player takes on the role of Steve, a 10-year-old boy who loves to spend his time playing in the street with his friends or with his toys. His parents always advised him never to go to play on the street tenth because it was really very dangerous.

With Steam’s easy-to-use feature, you, your friends, and your family can play one another’s games while earning your own achievements and saving your own game progress via the Steam Cloud.

To enable Family Sharing and authorize a shared library, you, and whoever you want to share your games with, first have to activate Steam Guard.

There, click “Manage Steam Guard account security,” and choose either “Get Steam Guard codes from the Steam app on my phone,” or “Get Steam Guard codes by email (will require you to re-login).”

After setting up Steam Guard, head back into Settings, navigate to the Family tab, click “Authorize Library Sharing on this computer,” and choose who you want to share your library with. You can select up to five friends or family at a time.

From your Library, you’ll now be able to see games owned by other users linked to your account.

To request access, select a game and simply “Request Access.” This will send the owner an email with a link that will allow you to play games in their library.
