I have been putting together some games for ancient coin collectors that you may find fun: https://www.sullacoins.com/games Games available so far: 1) Name that Emperor 2) Guess When the Coin was Minted 3) Guess Where the coin was Minted (Geography game) 4) What Should I read (OK - maybe just a fun was to access my blog and not a game) 5) An Ancient Trivia Game (What do you know?) Will be improving these games and adding new ones in the coming months - any feedback or new ideas for improvements or new games are welcome. Here's my latest coin of interest - and unusual coin form the Time of Magas King of Cyrene. Only 2grams - couldn't resist the gazelle and silphium - only one or two of these known other than this example (in this fractional weight).
Nicely done; well designed and executed. A bit slow loading for me, but that’s likely got more to do with my phone and connection than it does your site. I tried my hand at “Name the Emperor” because I wasn’t terribly confident of my chances with the others. I got 80%. Guess that’s a low “B”. Should’ve done better. OK, that was fun. Guess I’ll try #5- the Ancient Trivia Game- next, but don’t expect me to show my score on the leaderboard if the results are embarrassing.
OK, I started out by attempting it at “Intermediate” level but within the first two questions I could tell I was out of my depth. So I started over on “Beginner” level. Only missed one question, but I confess a couple of my hits were lucky guesses. Wow, you need a SUPER Beginner level! Oh, hey- look! I’m #1, but only by virtue of being the first to play! Good work, Sir.
You did well on "Name the Emperor", I've added a bunch of non-Roman emperors/kings to the game so it is now a little more challenging. I may have to revise that a bit more so that I get the balance right between hard and easy.
Trivia questions have been updated and now include more than 300 questions which have all been screened for quality: https://www.sullacoins.com/ancient-trivia-game
also a new Daily Coin Game has been added - test your attribution skills and challenge your friends: https://www.sullacoins.com/daily-coin-challenge
well - i continue to play around with "games" - my latest lets you play a tile game with the coins in my collection. A rare bonus if you are dealt a matching obverse and reverse and can connect them on the board. The latest in a growing set of experiments, which has helped me build a better curated set of coin descriptions. https://www.sullacoins.com/games
