Bloons TD 3Loom
Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 2
Loom leans harder on execution: Musical spell sequences require accurate note input under light pressure
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance1 vs 1
Even - both lean on variance about the same.
Optimization7 vs 8
Loom leans harder on optimization: Learning and combining distaff spells in the correct order is a fully solvable logic system
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
