Because there were five guesses, I thought they would be five different photos from five different geographic locations

Wordle is similar though and doesn't seem to suffer from this ambiguity. Is it because the ui feedback from Wordle makes it more clear you're guessing the same word? I thought it was pretty clear here with the distance.

Obviously Wordle is uninteresting if you're only allowed one guess.

This game reminds me very much of chronophoto (https://www.chronophoto.app/game.html), which prompts with photos from different years, and so I was expecting it to work more like that.
