      I just tested on mine:

      Right click game in steam, add shortcut to desktop double-click shortcut, game runs.

      I checked the shortcut to see what the command is (right-click, properties):

      steam steam://rungameid/648800

      Is that what you have? The only thing I can think of is that steam isn’t in your path, ie when you double click the shortcut it tries to run ‘steam’ but then can’t find it.

      If you open a terminal and type:

      which steam

      what’s your output? You should have something like /usr/bin/steam
