Can two people play each other's shared Steam games? - Happy friends spending time in forest

If both me and my friend are sharing each others libraries, can I play a game from his library while he is playing one from mine?



Best Answer

With Steam Family Sharing, you're sharing your entire library at once, meaning that if someone is playing a game from your library, nobody else can access any game from that same library. If you're playing a game from your friend's library, your friend is free to play any games from your library, as your library is not in use while playing your friend's game.
