This is awesome! Much more interesting visuals than Geoguessr

Someone turned me on to this recently, but mainly it ended up getting me back into Timeguessr. (I'm much better at Timeguessr.)

Awesome, got ~25k, said top player! Im good at the geographical location but not so great in the time line, it was fun!

That's really cool, I did really badly

this is fun

I love this! One of the wrong answers was because I mis-clicked the location. Another one had an inscription saying "1695" and I confidently picked that time bracket (was very wrong!).

Heh, geoguesser for artifacts. Neat. The texts on the slider do seem a little close together. Could just be me.

A yes, a gold lego piece. Wait, not Denmark?

Fun game. It does seem that the date score is much more forgiving than the location.

This just became my new favorite daily game. The only thing I’d change is the time resolution: 1750-2000 should probably have the same number of divisions as 1000-3000 BC.

it's great, even though i'm bad at it. "45,485 · top 95% of players today!" is such nice way of saying that:

Wonderful - thank you to the creator! Requests, just in case you are reading:

* Make hints that prompt thinking and teach analysis (interesting!), not give answers (boring). For example, for the Inca ceramic depicting corn: 'The object depicts something familiar to you - where and when would that have been familiar to the people who made and used this?'; or for a silk painting, 'Where and when do you find these materials?'.

* Minor issue - The distance measurement is a bit unfair. Even if you figure out one is from (e.g.) China, getting the exact spot wrong is more costly than choosing the wrong spot in (e.g.) Italy because China is so much larger. I even placed the 'Ferry' fan on the Yangtze river, but it's a long river. Also, the map projection distorts distance.

What a beautiful game, props to the author.

Very cool ! Would be nice to have some explanation after answers on the objects so that I learn something, but pretty addictive and nice UI!

I've been playing this nearly every day and sharing the results in my family's group chat. I've been to a lot of museums and I didn't realize how much information I wasn't retaining. No quiz once you exit I guess. Anthropeum really starts to train your brain to remember patterns, times, and locations. I often get stumped by whether something is Peruvian, African, or Native Islander. Always more to learn!

Wonderful game! mmooss & mortenjorck have good suggestions.

That was a lot of fun. Top 74%, woohoo!

I should really get in the habit of playing this game and geoguesser.

The timeline is not readable on narrow desktop windows (e.g. when you have two windows tiled side-by-side, but not so narrow as to switch to the mobile layout). The labels for the years overlap each other so it's very hard to read.

Fun game, though!

I wonder how many people are using external resources when playing this. I have a hard time believing that the average lumps so far to the right of the score distribution unless this game is played exclusively by anthropologists haha.

Honestly surprised by this outcome. My geo estimates were way better than my period estimates.

It’s funny how much of a “ChatGPT tell” that thin weight accent header is. Sol seems to place that on _everything_.

Looks like I should feel decent about my 72 083! Got a perfect 10k on two questions which surprised me.

Fun game, but 10 objects felt a little much for a daily challenge I think.

Great idea for a vibe coded project that is actually creative/original. Got in the top 4% as a professional historian. Would be interesting to see the professions of the people in the top .1 percent - is it people with Geoguessr type abilities or more like art historians and curators at the Met, I wonder?
