Steam Summer Sale theme: Forge Your Fate

This year, Steam is going for a storytelling theme, with a button on the homepage that says, "Click here to read your story." On that page, Steam has 14 "Forge Your Fate" stories, letting you navigate the sale through a "Choose Your Own Adventure" type narrative. On each story page, Steam shows you a variety of game deals that fit within a particular genre, and you can click on a button at the top that says "Click here to continue your story" to read a short blurb and make one of two decisions on how to proceed. You'll get stickers based on your actions. After you complete all 14 of the Forge Your Fate stories, you'll get one of five unique badges reflecting your choices.
