Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 0
AI: The Somnium Files leans harder on execution: Somnium object interactions have minor timing windows
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance3 vs 2
AI: The Somnium Files leans harder on variance: Hidden time-locked Somnium actions obscure optimal routing
Optimization6 vs 6
Even - both lean on optimization about the same.
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
