Axis by axis
Execution2 vs 2
Even - both lean on execution about the same.
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance4 vs 4
Even - both lean on variance about the same.
Optimization7 vs 8
Prison Architect leans harder on optimization: Guard routing, cell ratios, and utility networks are deeply solvable
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
