Bloons TD 6Pushmo World
Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 2
Pushmo World leans harder on execution: Pulling and climbing blocks demands no precision
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance1 vs 0
Bloons TD 6 leans harder on variance: Wave order is deterministic; tiny targeting randomness
Optimization9 vs 9
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.
