Is there a way to check if a Steam game uses Steam DRM? (self.steam)

All games on Steam use Steams DRM, I would have thought.

They do not have to. FTL is one example I know of off the top of my head.

The original Kerbal Space Program is another. You can uninstall Steam completely but still launch the game just fine. It's actually pretty handy if you want separate mod loadouts, just copy the whole directory.

Selaco doesn't.
