CloseAsking because I'm working on a simulation game (which is a bit of a first for me) based off the old game, Capitalism. Basically, buy resource manufacturing facilities and then sell the finished products, and beat the AI to the end goal.
Just fishing around for ideas as I know that three screenshots are the minimum requirement for submitting a game here, but it becomes a little challenging when it's only one map, and quite a tiny one at that, almost as small as a map can get. It's just a short game, will probably take about half an hour to play at the most.
I was thinking of dialogue showing the requirements for purchasing one of the facilities, an image of the shipping screen (it's nothing fancy), and possibly the screen which will show how you stack up against everyone else.

Your screenshots should indicate how the game plays, and/or what it looks like. What you're describing here sounds fine.
As an aside, the "three screenshots" rule was implemented so that people wouldn't post images that are irrelevant. Like, I don't remember where I saw this image, but, it was a screencap of a gamepage where the three images uploaded was a monster design (the graphics used was from the RTP, by the way), a title screen, and maybe one other thing that wasn't an indicator of how the game plays, and/or what it looked like.

I think the person looks at your game description and looks at your images.
If you described your game as a 3D RPG with lush and beautiful environments, then show a picture of some zebras, there's probably going to be a problem.
I think if you describe what your game does well enough, there shouldn't be a problem. There are some other games with only 1 map out there.
Here's an example of a game with very minimal images to submit=
