Steam – Can you get punished for cheating on a single player game on steam

cheatsheat-signaturesteam

I have some single player games that I want to skip the grind part and go straight to the end game content. Could I get VAC if the game has no online content?

For example, I got and wanted to get more money ingame.

However, the new Shadow of War (releasing on Oct. 10) will have microtransactions to buy chests. The game being offline (maybe with online checks), could I get banned?

Games on Steam should tell you on their store page if VAC is enabled. CSGO for example shows this:

If you don't see this, then you likely won't get VAC banned. Looking at Heat Signature, it does not appear to have VAC enabled.
