I don't know if this is a problem with my computer or if this is how things are. Can somebody please check for me and advise?
Two different places: Big Fish - today's game that Marian announced (Secret City: Chalk of Fate) - parts of the review by pennmom
and Steam home page under "suggested curators"
I am seeing a different language on parts of these.
???
Thanks.
In my computer, everything seems to be set up for English.

I am seeing a different language on parts of these. I didn't check the Steam page (not sure where "suggested curators" is), but I am seeing the same thing under pennmom36's review. I don't think it's a different language. I think it's some strange font. It looks like this: Cσɱρʅҽƚҽԃ Gαɱҽ αρρɾσxιɱαƚҽʅყ 5.0 ԋσυɾʂ (ιɳƈʅυԃιɳɠ ƈσɱρʅҽƚισɳ σϝ αʅʅ ρυȥȥʅҽʂ & CE Bσɳυʂ Cԋαρƚҽɾ) 24 Mαιɳ Sƈҽɳҽ Lσƈαƚισɳʂ +10 ιɳ ƚԋҽ CE Bσɳυʂ Cԋαρƚҽɾ Dιϝϝιƈυʅƚყ Rαɳɠҽ: Bҽɠιɳɳҽɾ Anyway, it's not your computer's fault. I don't know if pennmom36 used a strange font or whether something is off on Big Fish's webpage, but it's not your computer.

Just because I was curious... I went through all my fonts and couldn't find anything remotely like it.
I see the Curators on the left at Steam, but have no idea what that means. Appears to be that you follow one of them?

Yes, I found the curators I could follow if I wanted to. Not sure what they do though!

Which curator are you using?
I have to leave to go bowling and will check at Steam again when I get home.

When I go to https://store.steampowered.com/there are no weird fonts anywhere on that webpage. There is a "Your Store" dropdown on the upper left, under the Steam logo. I can choose "Steam Curators" from the dropdown, and it takes me to https://store.steampowered.com/curators/There are four "curators" on that page -- Cynical Brit Gaming, PC Gamer, Just Good PC Games, and /r/pcmasterrace Group Each one has four games underneath along with a description. None of the descriptions has weird fonts and all are in plain English. I do not have a Steam account and don't want one, so if you are seeing the weird fonts on a page you see when logged in, I can't help you.

Yes Jenny. On my Steam page there are 5 curators shown each with 4 games show. (There is one curator and a side scroll bar to get the others.) Out of the 5 curators, 3 of them are shown in this other language, all 4 games. I know I've noticed a couple games before but it seems like there are more today or maybe I just noticed more today after seeing that review on Big Fish. I'm going to take a look in Steam settings to see if there is something there.
When I click to see more curators, I see Tangle Tower under a different curator and it is in English. It does not say the same thing. I'm guessing it goes by the curator.

As I scrolled down the Curators and their game comments, I did fine a couple in Russian. But I didn't go any further.
