Next bubble colors are randomized
Sniper Elite 4
Wind direction and enemy patrol timing add first-run uncertainty

Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Bust-A-Move Universe
Bank-shot planning and chain setups reward strategy
Sniper Elite 4
Synchronised shot timing and route planning reward methodical preparation
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.
