There's a similar game, but for guessing both the year and the location

https://timeguessr.com/

Discussed on HN a couple of years ago too: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37203511

edit: found another game like OP in the linked thread https://www.chronophoto.app/game.html

Holy, I was off by 7 years and 427km on my first guess and I don't want to play anymore because I've surely peaked

I just got one that was off by 2 years and 24.2 meters, but it was kinda cheaty because it showed Barbara Bush on the South lawn of the White House.

lol nicely done

I only immigrated to the US in my adult life and I can't say I recognize Barbara Bush at a glance, so I was _also_ off by a few years and a few km on that one :( but still a lot of fun!
