Can you trick Steam?
Since Steam introduced region-locking for its games, it has been harder to access global gaming content — but it’s not impossible. All you need is a reliable VPN that can mask your true location, trick Steam into thinking you’re in another location, and allow you to play games from other regions.
How to add games to your Steam library?
Open Steam > Steam Menu (Top Left) > Settings > Downloads > Content Libraries: Steam Library Folders > Add Library Folder > Add The File Called ‘steamapps’ On Your Hard Drive

How can I see what games I have bought on Steam?
Inside, you can see all game purchases and money added to your Steam wallet. On top of that, you can get options for each purchase. For example, you can request a refund on a game, contact Steam support or claim that you’ve been charged an incorrect amount.
What to do if games are missing from your library?
I just purchased a game but I don’t see it in the Library list. Check your email to make sure you received an email receipt from Steam for your purchase. If you didn’t receive a receipt, your purchase may still be pending. Find the purchase in your purchase history and you can select it for more details.
