Simple and fun game. I just wish the score was more forgiving the older the photo was. It’s a lot harder to tell 1905 and 1910 apart than 2015 and 2020, from the perspective of 2023.

#102I love how there are no instructions, and yet it's pretty obvious what the goal is and how to achieve it, good UX.

#103So simple, yet a lot of fun! 2,889 on my first round, 4,4xx on my second. It's fun zooming in and looking for cars, logos, and clothing style for hints. It's also neat to see, say, a road with cars from Model T style through to swoopy 1930s sedans. Contrast that with most historical movies where, if it's set in 1955, every car is from 1950 - 1957.

#104I played this with my 8 y.o. son. I called it a social studies activity, was that accurate?
Re: Chronophoto
#105At least one of the photos is mislabeled. This one[0] shows time square with an ad for a UFC fight that happens in 2009, but it's labelled as 2007. [0]: https://i.imgur.com/9wJZhI0.png

#106So fun! Have some friends courious about culture and history that will love this. I think the UX can improve a bit: - Would like that after a submit show both the correct date and the player guess, now only shows the correct date on screen (and the guess in the slider but not with numbers, just a visual gap) - The slider is a bit hard to interact on phones.

#107Reminds me of the Timeline (I think this is the name) card game where every player has a bunch of cards, each of which represents a historical event (e.g., moon landing, or sinking of Titanic, discovery of Radium, etc. Each player has to put down the card in the proper order, with respect to previous cards played. It gets harder as more cards are "on the timeline". Fun game.
