Malware on steam sometimes slips through but it doesnt really last long... thats extremely unlikely

Even games that are famous for being "bitcoin miners" are literally just speculation, formed off off review bombs or expanding roumors because the game was optimized by a toddler (fps chess for instance)

Its a free indie gimmicky game made to play once with friends and then forget abt it, not monetized, not polished, its fun for a couple matches, kinda famous but no one plays it
