The gaming platform Steam offers its users more than 10 thousand licensed games and DLC. On the one hand, this is good, as there is plenty to choose from. On the other hand, almost half of the content is little-known, low-budget indie games that not everyone will like. Such content is often found in the Steam library, after buying a set of games at a discount and in general, the gamer simply does not need it. Therefore, in the framework of this article I will consider the question: 'How to uninstall the game from Steam on Mac?'
Today I will tell you how to uninstall Steam games on Mac, but this guide almost will be the same for computers with Windows and Linux.
Company: Aspyr Media Where to buy: Steam (£14.99/$19.99), Green Man Gaming (£14.99/$19.99), Mac App Store (£19.99/$19.99) System requirements: Mac with OS. So, Steam (a well-known game-to-computer content delivery system) recently released for Mac OS X, and as of today, only one hundred of the games available on Steam are cross-platform. It's a start, but it's not yet the revolution every Mac gamer would like it to be. Company: Aspyr Media Where to buy: Steam (£14.99/$19.99), Green Man Gaming (£14.99/$19.99), Mac App Store (£19.99/$19.99) System requirements: Mac with OS X v10.10, 2.3GHz Intel. What I meant by PC games being easy to play is that I don't have any problems looking for games there. The reason is I just want to play games that I've never seen or heard of before. Since I'm fairly new on Mac, I've never played games that are or were made only for Mac. I could been missing out on a great game that was Mac-only for all I know.
Deleting Steam games is more difficult than uninstalling regular Mac programs, because they are not stored in the program folder. But everything is not too complicated. To remove the game from Steam, you need to open the program itself.
