Blade Runner
Variance · Systems & Chaos
Detective work against randomised suspect identities that reshuffle every playthrough.

Evidence chains and questioning routes reward systematic detective work
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.
