this is interesting but not so accessible - I have no conception of how big or small a power station turbine rotor is. I've only seen the pictures of statue of liberty and big ben with no banana for scale. so it's pure guessing, which is less fun.

why not more accessible things - a basketball hoop vs a delivery truck, a chicken egg vs a toilet, etc. things you don't ordinarily see side by side but you know roughly the size of each so you can compare.

I guess that's part of the game...

+1 to that. the one with the egg for instance was great

The power station turbine one is particularly asinine because the size range is huge.

So they give you the name of the exact turbine, but like... how is that helpful. I don't know random german nuclear turbines by name, and looking it up just... tells me the size and makes the game pointless.

The idea is interesting, but its too USA centric

An astronomical version would be fun. Planets, stars, galaxies, etc.
