The game (The Watchmaker) disappeared from my library :(

you try go https://help.steampowered.com/en/wizard/HelpWithGame/?appid=504430
then push "it's not in my library" try see if can fix by do restore

Whoa, I restarted my client and mine also turning into demo. What the actual f.

same here

i buy it at full price from steam store,but can't install right now,same other people and im0nit say,have problem say "not licenses".

Nice, love having to keep track of all my games as to avoid being suspended on SG. Its not my fault the developer couldnt make a living out of videogames but whatever

Keep calm folks, it looks like a bug or something

You know what? I'm not even blaming the dev........................................ I blame steam..........................
Seriously they check NOTHING??????? -.-

Just checked and the full game is in my library(yet) but the green bar giving info about activation date on the store page is missing. Either dev made a mistake or went on a rampage. Not the first time Valve let them do as they please.

Probably re-releasing under new appid, with a new piblisher, withdrawing old appid from library/changing to demo. Going to have to buy again maybe.

I still have it in my library, but when I try to install it I get this message:
An error occurred while installing The Watchmaker (no licenses)

I thought that games that are being pulled of Steam still remains in your library and you can play them. This is rather dirty?

Same problem :(

so what to do now for those who won the game?

ask mods to mark the game as not received to maintain a clean SG record of activated wins? :/

Well you can either flag the game via steamstorepage
https://store.steampowered.com/app/504430/The_Watchmaker/
or

I will just repost waht "Ylthin" aka "Khayta wrote in steam discussions

"One way to manage this is to simply contact the support"

Select -> "it's not in my library"
then explains as follow :

The dev changed the game into a demo just today :
https://steamdb.info/app/504430/history/
https://steamdb.info/sub/116109/history/

I had the complete game since XXXX date.

Of course change the date as listed in your log
https://store.steampowered.com/account/licenses/

No problem here, but when I look under "Licenses and product key activations" mine says "The Watchmaker for Beta Testing" so that might be why my version was unaffected. Hope everybody else can get this sorted, sorry I couldn't help more.

Hey they got it back never mind haha

Mine was activated on July 2, 2021 as "The Watchmaker " and it doesn't appear as a Demo.
Disk space required 7.41 GB
Don't know where I got it from.

Yep, it's back to normal but I don't like the fact that some unstable person have too much control over depot of purchase disabled game. Purchase disabled or delisted game's depot should be frozen or something.

got a new update and price is back - don't have the game but thought i'd check anyway

Instead of people always immediately think it's malicious it could also just be a dev that doesn't know what it's doing.

it could also just be a dev that doesn't know what it's doing.// hangover ? dev anus hakkers activity ?
is this his first time?
