Been there, done that! Some indie games or older titles on Steam don't have strict DRM. Just locate the .exe file in your Steam installation directory, and fire it up. Worked for me with a couple of games, but no luck with major titles.
You wanna dodge Steam while playing Steam games? Tough luck, my friend. The majority of Steam games need the client to run because of DRM (Digital Rights Management). But hey, not all is lost! Some games can run without the Steam client if they don't enforce DRM. Just find the game's executable file in the Steam folder and try running it directly. But remember, multiplayer and some features might not work.
