Civilization VII
Age transitions and hidden resources introduce genuine unknowns
Invisible, Inc.
Procedural floor layouts and alarm escalation add significant run variance

Legacy path and age-transition choices form the core optimization puzzle
Invisible, Inc.
Power allocation, agent pairing, and escape routing are the core puzzle
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.
