Feedback on my Steam page? Bills Must Be Paid

Hi all! I'm working on Bills Must Be Paid and would love honest feedback on the Steam page before I push more traffic to it.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4421010/

I ran it through a page checker and it scored 78/100 (Strong). The weakest parts were screenshots (65), trailers (65), short description (70), so I'd especially like your take on:

1. Which of the first 4 screenshots makes you want to click? Which one would you cut?
2. In the first 5 seconds of the trailer, do you see gameplay?
3. After reading only the short description, can you tell what you'd actually do in the game?

Full breakdown if you're curious: https://www.steampagechecker.com/report/bills-must-be-paid

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

Check each community's rules first; many have a weekly feedback thread or require a gameplay video.
