Playing A Game While Off Line

I downloaded a game and went to favorites, selected Make available offline, then tools and synchronize BUT when I try to play the game it puts me online. I right clicked the shortcut and it shows that I have checked the offline option. Any suggestions??

 

Does the game have to connect to a server to be able to play? If it does that is the problem right there.

I'm sorry but I don't know what that means. The game is marbles from inet

 

Is the game multiplayer?
Does it have the option to let you play against other people?
If yes to either of these you cant play it offline.

BTW what version of windows are you running?

Sorry but I am fresh our of ideas. Maybe someone else can shine some light on the situation.
