Hi there Jamtart & welcome to the forum.
Even though the website was offering other games to buy, the Steam arrangement is possibly genuine. It's a system for online gaming with other players, so you usually have to register with the website to unlock the game.
Once you've set up an account and created a password you can usually configure the settings so that it runs run without ever having to be online again.
I used to play a game called Half Life, which did this.
But as always, make sure your Antivirus is good - I use Avast which is free and excellent, but there are others.
Good luck
