Timed escapes and combat require responsive, accurate inputs
BioShock Infinite
Skyline traversal and aiming reward inputs.

Loot drops mildly randomized.
Optimization4 vs 4

Escape routes and combat approaches have learnable optimal lines
BioShock Infinite
Gear, vigors, weapon picks straightforward.
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
