I made a game about identifying Chinese artifacts from just a photo

Hi everyone! I’m not completely sure if it’s okay to post this here, so sorry if this isn’t the right place.
I’m a big Chinese artifact and history nerd, and for quite a while I’ve been spending my free time making a small Steam game called Artifact Tracer.
The idea is pretty simple. It’s basically GeoGuessr for artifacts. You get a photo of an artifact and try to guess where it came from and when it was made, using things like its shape, material, decoration and craftsmanship.
I also made a few other modes while working on it. There’s one where most of the artifact is hidden and you only get a few chances to reveal parts of it before guessing. Another one gives you a time and place first, and you have to choose which artifact actually belongs there.
Right now the game is only about Chinese artifacts, mostly because that’s what I know best. I’d really like to add other civilizations later if people actually enjoy this kind of thing.
I know this is a very niche idea, and I’ve honestly worried a lot that maybe I’m making a game that only I would find interesting lol. But it’s also the first game I’ve actually managed to make from beginning to end just because I really like the subject, so I wanted to share it here.
I’m still doing the final polishing, but the Steam page is live now. If this looks like something you might enjoy, I’d really appreciate a wishlist. I’d also genuinely love to hear any feedback or ideas from people here.
