Steam Deck (or Linux) - Blocking a Game's Network Access (lemmy.ca)

Is there a relatively simple way to block network access to a program? Avoiding the command line ideally.

Heroic Launcher has a "run game offline" toggle for games that are installed/added through it, but I am trying to cut out the middle man and install non-steam games directly through Steam.

Steam launch commands? Any built in firewall?

Thanks in advance!

OpenSnitch maybe? I don't know how well it works with game launchers.

You can completely cut off internet access with network namespaces but I don't know a GUI tool for setting those up.
