Antarctic Adventure
Execution · Pure Mechanics
An early arcade racer testing reaction dodges and memorised obstacle patterns against the clock.
Darksiders: Warmastered Edition
Execution · Practiced Mastery
A hack-and-slash adventure where mastering combos and puzzle-laden dungeons is central.
Antarctic Adventure leans Execution (Pure Mechanics); Darksiders: Warmastered Edition leans Execution (Practiced Mastery).

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.
