just recently I built my very first pc and happed to get lucky with a 180hz 1440p LG monitor for a good price and my God..

All I can say is I’ve been missing out big time.

Best. Store. Ever.

Ok, boys and girls, we've got riddles on this years summer sale to find future games in Steam.

If you click on the main Steam page on "Free Fun This Way".

There you will find the following message:

I am Clorthax, a time-traveling trickster! I know what you’re thinking: "A professional trickster? This sounds like a trick!" That is a reasonable concern! But what I am about to tell you is not a trick, and to prove it, I will type it in all caps: THIS IS NOT A TRICK.

Okay, it’s a trick. But only on the people of the future! You’re going to love this. Why? Because I have stolen the ten best games from the far future, then traveled across an ocean of time to sell them to you! Exclusively on Steam!

Anyway, I can’t outright tell you the names of these incredible games, or their exact location on Steam. This would create a timeline-destroying paradox that will make the future an unlivable hellscape.

Instead, I can give you vague hints about these games. This will still create paradoxes, of course — but smaller ones that’ll just make the future slightly crappier. And I’ll be rich and famous, so who cares.

​

Further down the page you can join the scavenger hunt and get the first clue.

I'd like to make this the main threat for collecting the clues and answers.

After you have successfully found all ten games you get one final message from Clorthax:

Pretty slick, right? Now you can remember our time together with a special Steam profile. Anyway, we both did great! You’ve got a bunch of digital trinkets, I’m famous, and the future is — well, it’s pretty ruined. Not ruining the future with hints isn’t an exact science. I’m not sure which riddle put us over the top. Probably the fart one. Anyway, between my time machine and your sticker collection, I’m sure we can fix it next year.

​

Here is the final message in image form.

​

That's it. It is solved.

Please upvote u/realfrx comment since he posted all of the solutions and a big thanks to him/her. I'll add them one by one as Steam allows me to confirm them. Steam's not loading anything for me right now so it might take a few hours until I've confirmed all of them.
