Jungle enemies run fixed simple patterns
Variance1 vs 1

A Hat in Time
Deterministic levels
Disney's Tarzan
Collectible placements fixed; nothing meaningfully random
Optimization3 vs 3
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Badge loadouts offer light tuning

Memorising level layouts and letter locations completes it
