Feedback on my Steam page? Arctic Drive

Hi all! I'm working on Arctic Drive and would love honest feedback on the Steam page before I push more traffic to it.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4009490/

I ran it through a page checker and it scored 84/100 (Very strong). The weakest parts were short description (70), screenshots (73), tags (84), so I'd especially like your take on:

1. After reading only the short description, can you tell what you'd actually do in the game?
2. Which of the first 4 screenshots makes you want to click? Which one would you cut?
3. Do the top tags match the game you see in the screenshots?

Full breakdown if you're curious: https://www.steampagechecker.com/report/arctic-drive

Thanks, and happy to return the favour on your page!
