What is the 2 hour rule on steam?

Steam's 2-hour rule is a key part of its refund policy: you can get a full refund for most games if you request it within 14 days of purchase and have played the game for less than two hours, including online, offline, and shared library playtime. This allows for a risk-free trial, but exceeding the time (or the 14-day window) can still allow for refunds if you have a strong reason, like technical issues or a "bait-and-switch" description, by contacting Steam support directly with a detailed explanation.
