Steam: How to get Clorthax’s Paradox Party Badge

Insane discounts, the chance to collect trade cards, and the ability to create event-specific badges are all present in the 2022 Steam Summer Sale, but there are also a few noteworthy differences. One such change is the appearance of the time-traveling con artist Clorthax, who is trying to sell you some top-secret and (supposedly) extremely well-liked games from the far future. By clicking the "Free Fun This Way" banner on the Steam Store homepage, you can locate Clorthax and begin his task. If you help him on his mission, you'll soon receive a lovely reward: the Clorthax's Paradox Party Badge.

How to earn the Clorthax’s Paradox Party Badge

You only need to adhere to Clorthax's instructions in order to get the badge. He has hidden ten games from the far future in Steam's backrooms and wants you to uncover them. Naturally, he cannot simply tell you their names or locations because doing so would cause the space-time continuum to collapse in on itself like a sinful, non-Euclidean pretzel. Instead, he can provide you with hints about where the games are by way of riddles, which will, in his words, "cause tiny [paradoxes] that'll only make the future somewhat crappier."

The game has begun. By solving Clorthax's puzzles, you'll be able to unlock additional rewards and get a little bit closer to earning the Clorthax's Paradox Party Badge. You'll be happy with your sparkling new completely leveled-up badge once you find them all.

Of course, you'll want to make sure the Steam servers are operational in order to use Steam and obtain your badge.

Hopefully, you'll be able to avoid any server outages and easily locate those games with strange titles from the future.
