Game runs fine but can't find where it is installed.

Hello, I just installed a game from Epic Games and even though it runs perfectly the location of the game does not exist, according to Heroic the game is supposed to be on /home/my-name/Games/game-name but there is no such folder, the game-name folder does not exist, the only thing I can find is the prefix folder, how can I fix this? I'm using Arch Linux and Heroic Flatpak btw

Update: Well, now the game appears as "Game not available" and when I launch it a message appears telling me that the game cannot be located and if I want to remove the game. Could this be because the flatpak does not have access to my Games folder? But then why would the game work perfectly for a couple of minutes and then disappear? This whole situation is weird to me. Update 2: Well, after giving Heroic access to the Games folder through Flatseal now it can create a folder with the games that I install, but I still have the doubt about why the game worked for a couple of minutes, could someone explain that to me? What's even more weird is that by default Heroic has "~/Games:create" permission so it should have been able to write into the folder in the first place, I'm totally lost on this.
