Black & WhiteRaft
Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 2
Raft leans harder on execution: Shark hook-attacks require minimal timing
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance3 vs 4
Raft leans harder on variance: Island loot tables and resource drift introduce randomness
Optimization7 vs 7
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.
