Game stone?

After looking at some threads on here last night, I was wondering if this is a game stone? I found it yesterday. How can you tell if it is? thanks for the help.

It could be. I like to put it like this. If it was found in an area where there is a lot if creek cobbles and they all are rounded then its a good possibility that its natural. If its found on a known site and and it doesn't match the surrounding stone then its probably an artifact. Game stone hammerstone or grinder.

Biscuit discoidal? It does look natural to me at first glance though.

It was found at a site where I have picked up a few artifacts. I just picked it up because it looked different. I didnt notice any that looked like this one. I'll hang on to it. Conversation peice at the very least. Thanks guys.
