The immediate solution is to use *ext* for your Steam link:

[ext[steam://rungameid/251570]]

This syntax is described in Linking in WikiText 
<https://tiddlywiki.com/#Linking%20in%20WikiText>.

If you didn't want a link, another solution would be to use `single 
backticks` around the text containing the //.

This problem actually doesn't have anything to do with the fact that you're 
writing a list. //, outside of a few situations where TiddlyWiki recognizes 
a URL (the steam: protocol is evidently not one of them) starts italics, as 
you've found. Italics are an inline-mode element (that is, they can't 
continue across multiple paragraphs, list items, and so on). With an 
inline-mode element open, other block-level formatting (list, code block, 
paragraph, etc.) is suspended until the italics are closed. See Block Mode 
and Inline Mode 
<https://groktiddlywiki.com/read/#Block%20Mode%20and%20Inline%20Mode> for 
details on this.
